Bend The Metal

As I was looking through my notebook, I noticed that I have a tendency to write short bits of sentence, along with the date it was written. Usually it involves ideas for songs or for stories where story ideas will be numerous short idea points / plot points. One of the things I saw earlier was about a song idea. It commented on how I liked the sound of the word "bend the metal".

Going back through the folders in my memory box in my head, I remember that I wrote this when I was buying a battery for my lomo camera. I had a conversation with the person I was with and he said "bend the metal" and it sounded nice so I wrote it down.

It was already late at night, for me, though maybe not for some, and I was supposed to be sleeping soon since I have work in a couple of hours. In the end, I picked up my guitar and started to find a way to make a song out of it.

And so far, here are the lyrics that I got:

---
Though you are thinking that you'll never go so far,
Though you are saying that you're happy where you are.
Don't doubt yourself. No matter, no matter who you are.

Don't you care what the people expect you to be
Don't you dare be the one they try to make you be
Coz you set your way..
Like a hero in the movies..

Believe in yourself, be strong
You can be anyone
Bend the metal, you're strong
You can do anything
Coz you are who you are;
superhero of the day, who's to say..
You can bend the metal..

I tried to upload a video of me singing it.. but it seems like i can't.. something about me having to post it on youtube first then upload it. So i said, no. I don't want it on my youtube, ergo, I was gonna post it here. Technology and human mind can .. be .. have  .. smash-them-all-together-and-go-back-to-stone-age kind of effect ..
