Lord.... guess I shouldn't have said "fifty-cent words"! ![[Linked Image]](http://www.justplainfolks.org/ubb/wink.gif) All I meant by that are words that are somewhat conversational, but aren't used that often in lyrics. The ones in "This Kiss" are a good example. If they make sense and meter well, then I'm all in favor of using them. I like 'em! As for "Life Support", yeah, it's mostly the O-what-a-lovely-spring-day content that rang folks' poetry alarms on that one. But words like "morn" and "evermore" didn't help, since they're far more often used in poetry than lyrics. FWIW, I thought it was pretty solid lyric that's ill-served by its hook. I try to keep up with your stuff, and "Funeral in the Fog" gets my vote for your best recent lyric. Anthony
