#WritersCoffeeClub Apr. 19: How can prose achieve lyricism without verse structure?
Slashes.
Anything beyond that is up to the reader unless you can guarantee they speak the same dialect as you. I mean heck, people can imagine a completely different song from actual song lyrics; lyrics break basically every kind of rule there is. That's why they're so easy to mis-hear.
And that's just English. There was a video on Chinese music and the conclusion was there was simply no way to stick with the tonality of the language. There are other tonal languages with more leeway, but she could not make heads or tails of the song.
Write whatever. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
