Spalding Gray Is Missing

Info
I think this one started when I read Niveous's lyrics in the Lyrics Marte. They were pretty dour, so I thought it might be fun to tune my guitars down real low. Thinking I was all clever I dropped my E string to C or C# or something, and posted that I had done then. Then Josh Woodward, a very popular Song Fighter who won practically every time he entered, said he'd done that, too. Curse you, Woodward! So anyway, this one was mostly just a few riffs, and all I really did to try to make it more interesting was solo over it. I think the soloing is OK, and the song is alright, given the very morose and mellodramatic lyrics. I guess for some reason I like doing songs with mellodramatic lyrics...

Lyrics

Lunkhead version

This life is a deadpool
And you're my absinthe bride
We plan to grab the stars
Through perfect suicides
Once they find our bodies
Bloody & pristine
We'll etch our marks
In Unforgettable memories

chorus
First we'll disappear
Go missing like Spalding Gray
First step to immortality
They'll never forget this day
No, they'll never forget this day

I'll bring the ropes
And you'll bring the knives
And we can bring a beautiful end
To both of our lives
There's no need for suicide notes
The story's in the scene
Endless love and lost innocence
Slick as vasoline

chorus

This life is a deadpool
You are my absinthe bride
We plan to grab the stars
Through perfect suicides
Through perfect suicides
Through perfect suicides
Through perfect suicides

Etc.
Standar bass, guitar, vox, and drums fare...

Original lyrics by Niveous

This life is a deadpool
You are my absinthe bride
We plan to grab the stars
Through perfect suicides
Once they find our bodies
Bloody & pristine
We'll etch our marks
In Unforgettable memories

First we'll disappear
Go missing like Spalding Gray
First step to immortality
They'll never forget the day

I'll bring the ropes
You'll bring the knives
We'll bring a beautiful end
To both of our lives
No need for suicide notes
The story's in the scene
Endless love and lost innocence
Slick as vasoline

First we'll disappear
Go missing like Spalding Gray
First step to immortality
They'll never forget the day

This life is a deadpool
You are my absinthe bride
We plan to grab the stars
Through perfect suicides
Through perfect suicides
Through perfect suicides
Through perfect suicides
