I just read your lyrics to your songs and I started crying while reading Rain. Those are really good. How do you come up with lyrics like that?

My songwriting almost never starts with an idea. I My songwriting almost never starts with an idea. It usually starts with some gibberish or random phrases I sing while I'm strumming my acoustic guitar. "Into The Sky" was different. In my journal,  I wrote "I need a resurrection." And then three days later I started writing a song about my resurrection. Of course, to rise I had to die, and to die I had to be executed, and to be executed I had to be captured, and so on... I wrote this song backwards. It's all a metaphor for killing the weakness, the selfishness, the sinner, the beast in me (nod to #NickLowe.) This picture is of the first lyric ideas I scribbled down before I switched over to the damned computer. Thank God - and yes, Lorax, the trees - for paper.  Here are the final lyrics (for now.) Sing along with the demo on www.youtube.com/johnkylemusic  For the first time
For the first time in my life
I believe
It's time for me to fly
Into the sky  To the sages and their pages I ignored
To the hungry and cold I closed the door
To the demons I beckoned and obliged
To the bitter nights I raged and cried
Into the sky  In the darkness
The crow came one last time
I was taken
Not forsaken I was blind
Bound and tied
But by you I was not denied  And the people
And the people gather round
To see me
Bear my brier crown
And bleed
And bleed upon the ground  For the last time
For the last time in my life
I breathe in
I breathe out and close my eyes
[Into the sky]
It’s time for me to fly
[Into the sky]
The crowd begins to cry
[Into the sky]
Love will never die
[Into the sky]
Love will never die  Copyright © 2019 John Calvin Kyle IV. All rights reserved.
