Standing high on a mountain bluffSinging aloud enough is enough.You say you have it, you're gonna change,When will you learn the verses saidThe clay is shaped, the fire is hot.Burning up, you lost the lotIt doesn't matter that you had me then!You should'a seen (that) these times would end.[In Latin]And you said that you would never leaveThat you would always be there for me.But when the stone slips from under your feet,You'll learn that not all ways are pleasant heat[end Latin]The clay is shaped, the fire is hot. Burning up, you lost the lost It doesn't matter that you had me then! You should'a seen (that) these times would end.You say it's a long way, won't go aloneYou sing your distress with a missing toneSing it loud, but the fear is goneConfident triumph, with no more song!And when you look down, I'm already goneSilence greets your empty songLearn you lesson and live your lifeI'll leave you now to face your fight.The clay is shaped, the fire is hot. Burning up, you lost the lost It doesn't matter that you had me then! You should'a seen (that) these times would end.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~Above is a song I'm working on. Just want a little input. It's a ska-influenced tune, and a little fast and a deceptive mellow tone, done with trumpets, guitar, keyboard, drum, a little violin or flute (haven't decided which), and bass.
After the second chorus, there's a rise in tempo and volume. At the end of "no more song," there's a fade, pause, then trumpet quietly leads back into the song.
There isn't any inspiration that I know of, so I don't have much comment on what it is or where it came from. Sorry to be so boring.

The lyrics are pretty sweet, and anything that is ska-influenced and multilingual I'm sure I'd like. I wish I could hear it :D
