These Are Lyrics for Songs I wrote, I’m hoping to find a band to play with so I can finish the writing process… *sigh*
The First One Is Called BLIND. I wrote it for a close friend whose Lovelife i watch in a roller-coaster constantly. She seems to have given up hope, or acts less hurt than she is.. so I wrote this, having lived on that roller coaster quite some time myself, to help her understand
BLIND
Don’t you see it?
Broken apart before you
Battle scars that show through
Beat away the losses
We’re all just Lost causes
You must be blind
Are you Free Yet?
Life’s hanging from this tree
Fight what you cannot see
Truth’s too much to take
That smile is just too fake
You must be blind
And the people here
They belong here
And so do you
And you can’t escape
Until you join them
So don’t run away
Face the mirror and stay
Can’t you feel it?
Beating there inside you
Begging you for the truth
Stop feeding it all the lies
A false hopeless disguise
You must be blind
And the people here
They belong here
And so do you
And you can’t escape
Until you join them
So don’t run away
Face the mirror and stay
And the people here
They belong here
And so do you
And you can’t escape
Until you join them
So don’t run away
Face the mirror and stay
The Next One is called “The Other Side” and it has to do with the parts of ourselves we hide from the world.
THE OTHER SIDE
Far along the darkened hallway
Turn away, won’t see it coming
Lay the fog to hide the demons
Trust infects just like diseases
Let go, hold up, gasp for breath
Open up and cut the thread
Wear myself to give my freedom
Give a smile to all the seething
CHORUS:
Don’t… don’t cross the black line
Written here with blood and time
You don’t want the other side
You’ll be lost in the freezing fire
—-
Throw away the empty seasons
Beyond the doorway, selfish treason
Lock out the core and sacred beating
Put it back behind the curtain
Don’t, take away my darkness
Hold destroy me for the faultless
Trace this plane to broken dreams
Awaken to the nightmare’s screams
CHORUS
Race across the rising concrete
Laughing in the moonlight lonely
Smiling still despite the heathens
Despite this show of selfish breathing
Cross the line where horror finds way
Too far gone to keep at bay
Lock back up the broken secrets
Too late for this… I’m in Pieces
CHORUS (2x)
The third is called “Have Her” and I wrote it for my little sister. She means the world to me, and it says… no matter how close friends they are with her, I’m her only blood sister.. and nothing can change that
HAVE HER
Fear falls silent still
Beyond the open doorway
Smiling there as though
She can read everything
And it doesn’t matter
And you can’t… have her
I lost my darkness here
In comes the light of day
She just seems to know
And make the spirit sing
The pain doesn’t matter
So glad to… have her
She holds the sweetest things
All the best hopes and dreams
Heart of gold and smiling soul
Lose what you can’t control
Down on that future road
That spirit cannot stray
She means the world, you know
For all the things it brings
Every day matters
Because I … have her
She holds the sweetest things
All the best hopes and dreams
Heart of gold and smiling soul
Lose what you can’t control
She holds the sweetest things
All the best hopes and dreams
Heart of gold and smiling soul
Lose what you can’t control
The Last Song is called “Choke”, and it’s written tot he people who say I’m lying and blame me and call me names for something very.. horrible that happened to me 3 and a half years ago.
CHOKE
Don’t try to tell me
What you know
This heart’s beating
Twice as slow
The lies you hear
Are not so false
I’ll shove this sorrow
Down your throat
Choke on what you don’t know
Fuck your ego, I’ll take control
Bled and Broken on the floor
Feel the pain devour you whole
I want to hear you
Screaming now
Dark and broken
All alone
Beg them to listen
Falls on deaf ears
I hope it chokes you
Eats your hope
Choke on what you don’t know
Fuck your ego, I’ll take control
Bled and Broken on the floor
Feel the pain devour you whole
Don’t try to tell them
What you know
I’ll laugh when it
Eats your soul
The world is spinning
Out of control
Selfish world leaves you
To die alone
Choke on what you don’t know
Fuck your ego, I’ll take control
Bled and Broken, on the floor
Feel the pain devour you whole
