Lyrics

W h e n I n s p i r a t i o n T a k e s A D i v e
(C) Towers Wilber

When inspiration takes a dive
it's hard for a songwriter to survive
In the modern day world
Nothing special is unfurled
No when inspiration takes a dive
the lyrics droop they don't sound alive
and that annoying refrain
simply thumps in your brain

And then you try to write another new page
The rhymes are going out of your head
and it puts you in a rage
Your melody is getting away from you
And that harmony's not going to pull you through
Oh, when inspiration takes a dive
it's hard for a songwriter to survive
In the modern day world nothing unique is unfurled

Oh when inspiration takes a dive
The lyrics droop
They don't sound alive
and that annoying refrain it simply thumps in your brain
When inspiration takes a dive it difficult for a songwriter to survive
