Welcome to Silent Music, a new recurring collection of blog posts inside the confines of Nutmegs. In this series of blog posts, I shall post lyrics to songs I have written. None of the lyrics will have music with them. They are designed for you to imagine the music yourself, as well as act as an outlet for the hipster poet in me. Feel free to use these lyrics for what you want to do, internet wise, just as long as you don’t try and pass it off as your own, don’t try to make money off of it, keep it public for the world to enjoy, and that you send me a link to the creation so I too can bask in your brilliance. With that in mind, I would like to introduce you to my first silent song, Jaded. Jaded meet audience, audience meet Jaded. I’m sure you two will hit it off.

She’s a flower
A rose that’s grown
In the middle
Of a war zone
She’s nothing but
Class all over
She’s everything yet
I don’t know her

A rebel girl
You can’t restrain
A secret girl
I can’t obtain
This beauty so
High above me
My own upper
West side story

Stars burst with her every step
The wildest girl I never met
Like a sunrise in the west
Caught in her universe
Stars burst with her every step
The fiercest girl I never met
She’s not like all the rest
Lost in her universe

And I’m Jaded

oooh, oh….oh oh
I’m Jaded

Her angle glow
Her sea blue eyes
That stare has me so
Hypnotised
Like graffiti
That has been framed
She’s a rockstar
That can’t be tamed

She is a walking
contradiction
The only carni-
vorous vegan
A free songbird
Trapped in a cage
A leading lady
Behind the stage

Stars burst with her every step
The wildest girl I never met
Like a sunrise in the west
Caught in her universe
Stars burst with her every step
The fiercest girl I never met
She’s not like all the rest
Lost in her universe

And I’m Jaded

oooh, oh….oh oh
I’m Jaded
