In reply to Jim's 'new' lyrics, some 'first impressions':
Love the use of 'I'll Decorate This City With Ribbons of Blood' which I think is a great title, let alone just lyrics.
However, being fussy, I do prefer 'I'll decorate this city IN ribbons of blood' which to me reads/sounds better?
I've always thought 'Decorate...' was a great title/song for Joker in Batman, but it could work just as well for Hook in BOOH?
The best passage of lyrics (or at least where I can hear music) begin with 'In the blink of an eye, all is lost ....' and LOVE the last line 'thousands of tombstones...just waiting for the names'.
I also really like the 'Paradise Lost' passage, but it doesn't seem to make sense with what has gone before?
'Once...always disappears' is another great line/thought.
I do like 'The Devil's Playground' as a title, but not in the context of these lyrics. How about:
'Thousands of tombstones (just waiting for names)'
'In the blink of an eye'
'I'll Decorate This City In Ribbons of Blood'
Obviously a 'stream of consciousness', as Jim puts it, and there doesn't seem to be any structure (yet), but a great read, none the less.
Keep working on it Jim!!
