Say Goodbye

 

I thought I only had to ignore in order to forget

Replace old by new to stop missing what I once had

New sounds exciting but old is still alive

So it's all messed up in an ordinary form of a fight

 

I thought I was strong enough to handle What I'd gone through before

But it was about a minute ago that I found out I was wrong

Looking in the mirror, my vision's blurred with confusion

Trying to recall my definition of perfection

 

X Maybe it's time to say goodbye

I can see my heart collapse in the middle of this life

So it's time for the past to heal

In any shape or form, whatever it takes to feel

Breaking into pieces as I say those final words

Goodbye to every most important thing that makes me feel hurt.

 

You thought I was worth your caring and put all your trust in me

Only to find out I'm the greatest liar

The kind that tells you stories, made to make you bleed

Showing you that change never goes without a fire

 

You thought my stories were honest, a bit pure maybe

Until I told you the truth and walked away

You'd never think you'd be looking for a place far from me

Wishing you'd never have to meet me again

 

X Maybe it's time to say goodbye

I can see my heart collapse in the middle of this life

So it's time for the past to heal

In any shape or form, whatever it takes to feel

Breaking into pieces as I say those final words

Goodbye to every most important thing that makes me feel hurt.

 

I guess our thoughts were hopeless

Based on the essence of what we wanted

It's hard watching where it got us

Knowing we're not going to change back

 

So it's time to say goodbye..

^Thank you.

 

Lying was the only thing we both knew how to do

 

I don't want to be your world' date=' only the words inside your head

That keep you from failing the things you said

And the things you do, make one whole story

About that one papercut, that cut way too deep

And now you don't know how to heal again

Unless it's all a play and you're the greatest actress

I guess you're the greatest actress cause every time I tried

To fix you, you cried, don't you know you were supposed to smile?

And every time you said you loved me it seemed real

Pretty lies you told, but at least they were meant for me

I remember looking at you, but I saw nothing at all

Even your shadow ran away from your wall

Do you recall that one time, when you promised you'd take care of me?

Instead you ran away as hard as you could and let me bleed

I heard a weak "sorry", said I'd believe it if you'd believe it too

But I lied and walked away from a person I never really knew.[/quote']

 

wow, I really liked that.

Lying To You Is Easier Than Telling You The Truth

About: well this friend i liked, well we talk everyday, but the way we talk to eachother is so different now because we made a xanga for news and stuff and we're gonna write articles and stuff. so now we only talk about that site and our articles, and i hate it. i want to talk the way we used to. me making fun of him because he thinks Stacey Farber is cute and laughing....

 

I hate the way we are now. We don’t act like we used to. I miss that way. More laughs, and good times. All we do now is talking seriously. Why? Why did this change come in us? Why did it come so fast? Why did it come at all? Will we ever be the same? I wish we could take things back. And never change. Stay the same. Laugh some more. Anything but this. I used to long to talk to you, now I long for our conversations to end. Am I just being emotional? Or is this real? I don’t want to think about it, but the change in us is all that is occupying my mind.

 

Will I ever get used to this?

Will my heart ever get used to this?

This change,

Is it for the better or for the worse?

In the end will we still be friends?

 

I hate the way this is changing us. Changing the way we act toward each other. Where did all the feelings I felt for you go? They were here last week, but the left without saying goodbye. Can we still talk like we used to, or are those days buried in the past? Too many questions that are unanswered, probably forever. I hate change.

Ok i wrote two new songs hope you guys like them :)

 

Untitled:

 

OK this song is about leaving home and someone could say how much they can't wait till they leave but once their gone they see being home is the only thing they want

 

I'm standing in the crowd tonight wanting to go home -

Cause where i stand doesn't seem so right -

 

Being here isn't really what i want being home is what i need -

Cause being here is to much for me -

 

I've been here before so why do i wish to be home -

 

I've said in the past before leaving home is what i need -

But looking back now i see i was wrong cause now being gone -

Makes me feel so wrong -

I know what i've said before being gone was gonna feel so right -

So tell me why i miss being home tonight -

 

Standing here now doesn't make me feel so alive -

Is it cause i left so much behind -

 

Just A Game:

 

Ok now this song is about an old friend and one night something went wrong between us, So yeah.

 

I know i've put you through so much in the past -

I wish i could just take it back -

 

I never meant to hurt you that way -

I guess i thought this was all just one fun game -

 

Hurting you was a game i was never willing to play -

 

I know i said you were never really there but -

Looking back now i see all you did was try and care -

So why did i decide to throw it all away -

Was it cause i thought this could be just a game -

I never thought i'd play -

 

Letting you go isn't what i'm looking forward to -

Cause leaving our memorise behind isn't something -

I'm willing to do -

 

It's gonna be sometime to let this go but know -

This isn't what i've been waiting for this wasn't -

A game i wanted to put you through -

If i could take it all back just know i'd be there in a flash -

 

Ok well i hope you guys like them :)

Heres a song i wrote a longgggg time ago. Me and a friend worked out exactly how it would sound so its all detailed lol. When i read it now it kinda sounds stupid to me. I love criticism! Tell me you hate it or love it...or just eh!

 

Your tounge cutting through me like a blade

I cant believe the words you say

What happened to us

The people we used to be

All just a memory [scream]

What happened to us [scream]

 

[chorus] [scream all]

Because all i see

Is the hatred you have for me

Why cant we go back

Back to the way it used to be.

 

What is that look in your eyes

Is it love drifting from your fingertips [scream]

The taste of your lips

And all your lies [scream]

 

[chorus] [scream all]

Because all i see

Is the hatred you have for me

Why cant we go back

Back to the way it used to be.

 

You're killin me

With the taint of your words

You're killin me

And its getting worse

You're killin me

And as our hearts break

You're killin me

I've had all i can take

 

You're killin me [scream]

With the taint of your words

You're killin me [scream]

And its getting worse

You're killin me [scream]

And as our hearts break

You're killin me [scream]

I've had all i can take

 

[chorus] [scream all]

Because all i see

Is the hatred you have for me

Why cant we go back

Back to the way it used to be.

 

[chorus] [slow / no scream] [drop to acoustic]

Because all i see

Is the hatred you have for me

Why cant we go back

Back to the way it used to be.

Okay. I do not like this. It is not complete. So if anyone has any ideas of how I can change it? Hmm I dislike it right now. *help needed*

 

Empty Days

 

Don’t they always say ‘a perfect story doesn’t know what perfect means’?

I always thought I knew what fighting meant until I had to fight for real

I though you understood the definition ‘being close’

You understood it far too well and hurt me most

 

I could see, you thought too long and way too much

I’d try to float along, setting my mind to deeper stuff

Knowing exactly what I wanted wasn’t enough to make you try

And you gave to me the opposite

All I needed was a smile and so it broke my heart to see you fall the way you did.

 

*Oh, you are my scar

And I think of you when I say

‘Someone taught me when to walk away’

Searching for a sincere face, I walk away on empty days

 

You expected me to be a cure I could never be

But nonetheless I tried, hoping I could set you free

I was disappointing and forgot how to care

So I let you fall& showed you what it‘s like without me there.

 

I can still hear you scream ‘please come back to me’

You tried to twist my mind by making me believe

You needed me to keep you up without your wall

Come on dear, we all knew you would fall

 

*

 

Walking off never meant I didn’t care, just not enough to fail myself

Hate me if you want, we will finish this in hell

Until that moment’s there, I will happily let go

And learn how to decide which way I want to float

^ Oooohhh I do like it!

 

I might as well post of mine. I'll only post a snippet of it because its very VERYYYYYY LONG.

(Seriously its like 1700 words long) But its a poem.

 

[Meh its not very good]

 

You still leave me hopeless

Yes, Its all for you

Again.

 

You are already sick of my helpless screaming

Helpless Crying

You left me slowly dying.

 

This can’t be what I hoped for

All this trouble

Can’t possibly be true.

 

We remember all the memories

Keep them in our hearts

Forever once more.

 

Please sing to me

Whatever it may be

I will listen to your voice

And listen to my heart break.

 

Am just nothing now

Do I still matter to you?

No one seems to notice how much I cry for you

You are the only beat in my heart.

 

Lets go outside;

Look upon the stars

Wish to stay together

Always~

 

My heart is beating fast

We can’t seem to control it

Every beat

Every second

Just for you.

 

Leave my by myself

To think about you in my sleep

Leave me in the dark.

 

Screaming out the poem

Crying out my mistakes

You still left of my heart

How could you not see them?

 

Sign your name across my heart;

Leave me your entitles

So I will always remember you~

 

If you for some strange reason want to hear the whole thing, PM Me and I will send it to you.

Sink or Swim

 

Last time I closed my eyes you stood in front of me

But when I opened them the room was empty

I heard the sound of footsteps, I heard them disappear

I felt a bit uncomfortable drowning in those tears

 

The tears built a big swimming pool filled with punishment

It forced me to survive the life that you had left

Each step was more than I could take but I kept walking on

Each step felt like a new mistake I could not afford

 

*So tell me should I;

Sink or swim

Lose or win

Can I take another day

Living like today

Is it time to say goodbye

Goodbye and close my eyes

Should I close my eyes for you?

 

My legs grew old and tired, my mind needed a break

But the waves in my swimming pool would not let me fade

They kept pushing even though I was running out of air

And when I thought I'd lose it I found the stairs

 

I climbed and reached for the light I had not seen before

Bright and so sincere, but it would only make things worse

As I learned about life and this thing called happiness

I was determined to show you, what you had missed

 

*

 

So I jumped back into my pool, my pool of punishment and grieve

But the water would not allow me in, and said to me

'Her *life is such a nightmare*act is taking way too long'

It kicked me out and screamed; Don't live your life for someone else's bleeding heart.

this is a really cheesy little tid bit I wrote about an older guy

 

I recorded it too...

 

http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=7A2CE35E2856A1B6

 

 

He probably figured out I just wanted to hold his hand

He probably knew he'd be making too early of demands

He probably thought it best-

he ran, he ran

But now he's giving in

Again, again

Ok well i kinda relate to this but then again not really, anyways it's not that good but i tried

 

3 Little Words

 

How can a year go by so fast

How can our memorise just last

Why is it now there's defect choices

why can't we just go back

 

Isn't it strange how people change

in a years time isn't it weird when we had

nothing to say now we have 3 little words that

are begging to be said

 

How can 3 little words be so hard

to say i know how i feel and i know what i

wanna say so tell me why it ends up the wrong way

 

I keep telling myself it's not that hard

I know how you make me feel so

why is this beginning to be hard i know

i feel and i know what i wanna say

so tell me why it ends up in the wrong

way those 3 little words can't slip out

cause it always end in a way that hurts

 

You make me feel so great so i need to say

before it's to late
