dzzzzzzzt.

 

 

i was so close to forgetting you

and those blue eyes

with your alluring words and promises

and pretenses, i fell for

those white lies and those impatient fists

so close

 

i'll step back and let it sink in

and you'll get out

with tales of new beginnings and love

and laughter, i long for

when you screamed and shouted of dreams

let it begin

 

save explanations for later

and savour this

with moments of fate and trust

and tragedy, i waited for

with blows to confidence and carelessness

we accept mistakes

 

blameless and shameless, i'll follow through,

i'm so in like with you.

Err, I found this just roaming through my Word Documents, haha. It's just heaps old, like around two years old or so, I wrote it when I was 11-12. :P So you can imagine it doesn't make much sense, and take in count english is just my second language! x]

 

It didn't really have a name, guess Anonymous Avenue it will be, or I dunno, any suggestions?

 

 

The traces of my pen have gotten thicker

I glance back at that old street,

I’ve gotten weaker, weaker

 

I shift my pencil, lines get neater

Memories of a heart repeat

The taste of today has gotten bitter, bitter

 

I stop,

Now, whoa!

 

Feeling a breeze of splatter get right through me,

I come to realize I was blind enough for not to see

The rope is no longer tight,

I’m not exactly what you wanted me to be

 

Oh, now,

CHORUS:

 

My pace gets faster among my steps

Screaming your name at the top of my lungs,

I’ve decided to break into reality

Since pretending may lead us to fatality, oh

My eyes were covered with the same bandage

That tangled beneath your fingertips,

Going back to where we began,

Anonymous Avenue will get us fixed

Oh whoa oh whoa

Oh whoa oh whoa

 

 

With fading glimpses of truth I was fed

Irony gets curious, huh?

I learned it’s not worth to regret, regret

 

I do guess some things are better left unsaid

A fake grin can get atrocious, oh

Well, hey, what do you expect to get?

 

Go on,

Now, whoa!

 

 

Feeling a breeze of splatter get right through me,

I come to realize I was blind enough for not to see

The rope is no longer tight,

I’m not exactly what you wanted me to be

 

Oh, now!

CHORUS:

 

My pace gets faster among my steps

Screaming your name at the top of my lungs,

I’ve decided to break into reality

Since pretending may lead us to fatality, oh

My eyes were covered with the same bandage

That tangled beneath your fingertips,

Going back to where we began,

Anonymous Avenue will get us fixed

Oh whoa oh whoa

Oh whoa oh whoa

 

And don’t tell me, now you’re falling outside the square

You’re coming to discover the true world’s end,

Don’t come up with the same tale, you were not prepared

Just accept life’s not always easy, sometimes you got to bend, hey!

 

Oh,

Step up,

Now, whoa!

 

CHORUS [bis]:

 

My pace gets faster among my steps

Screaming your name at the top of my lungs,

I’ve decided to break into reality

Since pretending may lead us to fatality, oh

My eyes were covered with the same bandage

That tangled beneath your fingertips,

Going back to where we began,

Anonymous Avenue will get us fixed

 

Oh whoa oh whoa

Oh whoa oh whoa

 

Anonymous Avenue will get us fixed

 

 

It's probably hella sucky, I need to start writing again. :P But oh well, that's what happens when you were a little 11 year old girl who had illusions of writing songs. xD

 

I actually have a good beat for it and stuff inside my head. Hm.

Any C&C or tips to improve it even if it's just heaps old? :]

Thank You

 

 

Sometimes I disobey my will to live

Thanks to you for this

You disrespect my cons

And yet it's you I miss

Sometimes love, Is so terrible

I found this out the hard way

Now this is the price I pay

I'm alone with hurt today

You tore down all my dreams

You ruined my good intentions

You made me diluted

You strengthen my uncomfortable tension

All the negative between us

Is what you did

Now you made me do an act of revenge

Some would say you deserve this

Some would say I'm a fool

But I'd rather die

Than be your portable tool

 

All My Anger

And All Of My Danger

Created By You, What Did You Do

Now I'm You

I Hate Myself, Thanks To You

 

 

Edit: Another!

 

 

Little Kid

 

 

Sometime today, I'll sleep

Knowing that I'm forever alone

Or so it seems, I got more years

But it still seems so hopeless

The souls I know are none to few

Its time for the end of me

And the beginning of someone new

 

I'll turn to myself once again

When I'm in need of some help

I know how to comfort myself now

No longer I scream and yell

For someone to arrive at my hearts door

 

Some people are kind, I love them so

But how are they

When they're with the ones they love

Theres not much I can say

About their own double lives

But there'll be some

Whose words, Hurt like knives

 

How are we suppose to ignore any of that

 

So Tell Yourself, Little Kid

That Life Isn't All Depressing

Look At What You Have Because

It Could Be Worse

Live Today, Live Tomorrow

Don't Live Too Deep In Sorrow

I actually posted a song called this ages ago, but I deemed it too cheesy so I ended up re-writing it. It probably still sounds cheesy. :rotfl:

 

Rachel

 

Every time I close my eyes

I still see that vivid day

That time you smiled and greeted me

You told me your name

But I wasn't paying attention

Too infatuated was I...

 

Woah

I still like your emerald eyes

I still like your pearly smile

I still like your exuberant spirit

Oh Rachel...

 

The days passed us by

They turned to weeks and months

Time always flies by

When we shared a space

But you still remained unaware

Of my eternal desires...

 

*chorus*

 

I always watched from a distance

I made sure that you remained safe

But you were never aware of it

I've always wanted to be by your side

But fate always had another course for us

You were always facing away from me

But I prefer things that way...

 

*chorus*

 

Facing away from me

(Eternal desires...)

Oh my dear Rachel

(Watching from afar...)

I will always love you

(Even if it isn't mutual...)

Oh Rachel...

if you don't want to see pure suckiness, look away now.

 

 

 

I saw your face,

When you weren’t watching

I heard your voice,

When you weren’t talking

I felt your footsteps,

When you weren’t walking

 

Never felt this way before

Can’t breathe

Can’t sleep

This feeling is new to me

Queasy

Uneasy

Just listen and believe me

This is how it’s meant to be

You and me

Me and you

It’s 100% true

 

I can’t describe it

It seems so unreal

The world is spinning rapidly

And when I’m near you,

This is how I feel

 

(Chorus)

 

Is this what it feels like?

Is it really true?

I can’t spend a day without you

 

Yeah, this is what it seems

True enough to believe, yeah

 

(Chorus to end)

 

 

you may look now. :)

I’ve been lost all along

Searching for something non-existent

Living somewhere I don’t belong

I’m sinking, sinking…

 

How can I stay,

When being with you is

Making me crazy?

I’m running, running…

 

Last train from London,

10 o clock from Kings Cross

Away from this dungeon

The cage you locked wasn’t bolted tight

 

The walls are closing in

My heart is loosing it’s rhythm

This one final sin

I’m falling, falling…

 

The daggers are here

Spearing us all

To shed one final tear

I’m swimming, swimming…

 

Last train from London,

10 o clock from Kings Cross

Away from this dungeon

The cage you locked wasn’t bolted tight

 

To be or not to be

This is just the beginning

Throwing away this key

I’m floating, floating…

 

Help me burn down these bridges

And cross these long rivers

Wedged between endless ridges

We’re bleeding, bleeding…

 

Last train from London,

10 o clock from Kings Cross

Away from this dungeon

The cage you lock wasn’t bolted tight

Pathetic

 

The fork in the road,

is growing by the hour.

Minutes turn to seconds,

and the right path disappears.

There's no way of knowing,

where to go anymore.

At least before,

there was guidance.

By now,

lonesome has taken its toll.

 

Help me help me.

Falling falling.

No where to go but down.

Left, right, forward, back,

directions disappear.

I'm sinking.

Isn't it sad,

that this is me without you?

say what you will. Be honest please. even if you think it sucks. Im a bit rusty anyway so i wont think you're an ass for saying so

 

 

when this is over

all my former life will be

is something i can only see

in my dreams and memories

 

everything I've gone through

and everything i've been

will all mean nothing

like a candle in the wind

 

all the opportunities gone

every love I've ever know lost

a broken existence is what i've become

and everything was the cost

 

this is so empty

this is so empty

this is so empty

i am so empty

this was written in an actual mess, you should see the page it was written on its pretty ace, haha.

i tried to make sense of myself.

 

 

 

at the point of no return ?

i'll get back to you on that one

older and wiser

but still left with no one

not mistaken but a mistake

nontheless,

how long 'til we get through this ?

asking for answers,

but not how you tell them

 

was that you on the other side

or just a reflection ?

a trick of the light,

or a flicker of emotion

don't say a word

you'll give yourself away

don't say a word

i have nothing to say

 

slow down, slow down,

take your time and your things,

leave and relax and remember

how we lived that life

good times and bad memories

with lost hearts and lost door keys

is this really happening ?

i'd take it back but i meant everything,

i asked for dreams but not how you live them

 

i'll build another wall right where you knocked me down,

knock me down.

The Day the World Ended

 

Events that stick in your mind

Billy taken from us

In a flash of steel and blood

I still remember his last words

He told me to live my life

But that looks like a tough road...

 

I still remember the day the world ended

Those words cut me deep

And they still hurt me

But some of us weren't so lucky

Walk this road on my own...

 

Some things you never forget

Jacob was so young

But in a flash he was robbed

Of all he possessed and cherished

I still feel his blood on my hands

And it never scrubs away...

 

*chorus*

 

The day my world will end

Is as inevitable as the tide

And I can't escape from it

But I can delay the inevitable

And live my life to the full

Then maybe I can leave this world

With a sense of accomplishment...

 

*chorus to end*

lol ^

 

Anyways, I'll edit this post after and put a new one here.

 

Edit:

 

This is random, But the words felt right.

 

 

Good going, You embarrassed me again

I'm sure you didn't know of it

So its not your fault

I can only blame me

But I'm too tired to beat myself up

So I'll finally move on

What am I supposed to do

When I'm ashamed once again

I laugh at myself

When I show my weaknesses to my friends

Somewhere theres someone else in my head

Sometimes he helps,

But most of the time he worsens me

 

If I tell, You about him

Or them, They will only tell me

That its futile and theres no meaning

Well I told you, My minds divided

And all she or he has to say is only demeaning

 

Wheres the fire I so loved

I seen a glimpse of her beautiful lips

They said "Please Be Kind"

But I don't think I'm so mean

Where were those words going

They weren't meant for my ears

But they were still directed at me

Is there something I cant see

 

I told myself, My Minds divided

And I can only blame that

I still feel the pain when I attack it

So I think Its over for me today

oh snap.

 

 

 

everyone has a plan B,

put your plan As away

(they won't work anyway)

 

place your hands over your heart

as if you could keep it there forever

(nothing lasts forever)

 

spare me the sadness rising up in your throat

i've heard and seen it all before

(i don't know anything at all)

 

this is going to hurt you

far more than it's going to hurt me

(comfortably numb, i promise)

 

it's not you, it's me

you will try to keep busy

(i will try to keep breathing)

 

we'll fix this

love wasn't built in a day

but prayers make no difference, said the priest,

when you send them in the wrong direction

 

(love is just a word,

when you say it like that)

I love how what you write, you can tell exactly how you feel about something. Its powerful.

slow day slow day slow day slow day

 

 

light-hearted ?

i wouldn't be so sure

it's the heaviest part of us all

i'm sure

 

i'll scream, i'll shout

no ! save my arms !

i might need them one day !

as my heart thuds a march of abandonment

in the bins outside my house

 

you told me once i was beautiful

maybe that'll save us.
