^ One word: Amazing!

[Jorgi]

yes chris. yes.

[Jorgi]

we stand and watch you cry your eyes dry

no need to apologise

much less to explain

i'd stand and watch all over again

 

empty towns, empty hearts

look down, stand apart

nostalgic and necessary;

accidental accessories

i asked for everything, back then

now you can have it all back

 

suitcases pakced and left in halls

7 year countdown to losing it all

i heard what you said when you spoke, you said

"i'm leaving my home for a heart that's dead"

don't assume, don't assume

i changed for you

 

so i'll stand and watch you cry your eyes dry

no need to apologise

no, much less to explain

i'd stand back and watch it all over again.

[Wildman]

^ Wow, good!

 

Here is one I've recently worked on (NOTE: the asterisks are lines that are to be screamed with emotion)

 

Why Do These Wings Hang From The Wall

 

Why am I so unsure

*Test my heart

*Forget myself

All alone and lost in the world

Give me something, *That I can be proud of

Show me something, * That I can live for

 

[Chorus]

When will you show

*Hearts will crash down

Forgiven, too slow

*This is how we'll fall know

Give me something I can take in

*And let it all fall down

 

Wisdom is in shambles

*Let alone, broken

Is this what we had hoped for?

*I hope not

*I see nothing

 

[chorus]

 

Anything, that I can feel

Why is this pain so real?

*Shed no tears

Oh, anything ends

 

[Chorus]

[zHairA]

^nice...

[Wildman]

Thank you!

Words

 

It seems this is what I need to do

Trading feelings for words

Is it crazy, I wonder

To think I need see

What lives down under

 

I don't know who to ask

So I'll always just ask myself

I'll never know the answer

Not even my love and I know

I'll never ask her

Why should I let her see

All the confusion and the mess

Am I being selfish

Or am I trying to be the best

Just for her to see

 

I wished and I said

That if maybe I was dead

"Would everything else be together"

Thats the question

Forever left in my head

But no,You can't answer

Because even you have no right

You showed me your history of lies

And it's my rightful reason you always fight

When will you grow

You and her both

No one said they'd be stopping you

Stopping your hate and your growth

 

The only comfort I find

Is trading feelings for words

 

wow , really good! (:

[Jorgi]

well we don't need this

and wasn't it you who said

that tomorrow's a brand new day ?

well, you fucking lied to us

it's the same as yesterday

and i don't need this

 

so turn around, turn back around

we'll start again but start afraid

and travel miles away

from the people we used to be

 

the sound of whispering

replaces words i trusted

well i'm paranoid and i'm annoyed

i longed to break away

and tear out your name

i could be so much more

 

march in time, fall back in line

it's about time we all fall down.

[Wildman]

^ Absolutely stunning! Defiantly better than my stuff!

[my.heart.]

burn, burn

there's something in my veins

transmitting frequencies

letting me know

there's something going on

the horizon

lightening lights up my world

oh, i tremble to think

 

that we are something

that we can have a face

to stand out from someone

born in my place

and even though your eyes

they clear the skies

i've realized

i've realized

 

sing, sing

for we've found a reason

i've got a plan

to speak against my voice

the silence

of your thunder deafens us

oh, how loud can we get?

 

that we are something

that we can have a face

to stand out from someone

born in my place

and even though your eyes

they clear the skies

i've realized

i've realized

 

oh, to be remembered

when i can't forget myself

is something

i don't think that i can handle

to be remembered

i just won't forget myself

there's something

in the feel of your arms when i fall

 

that we are something

that we can have a face

to stand out from someone

born in my place

and even though your eyes

they clear the skies

i've realized

i've realized

[Jorgi]

sing, sing

for we've found a reason

i've got a plan

to speak against my voice

the silence

of your thunder deafens us

oh, how loud can we get?

 

that we are something

that we can have a face

to stand out from someone

born in my place

and even though your eyes

they clear the skies

i've realized

i've realized

 

oh, to be remembered

when i can't forget myself

is something

i don't think that i can handle

to be remembered

i just won't forget myself

there's something

in the feel of your arms when i fall

 

<3

[my.heart.]

so turn around, turn back around

we'll start again but start afraid

and travel miles away

from the people we used to be

 

<3 <3

I'll Always Lose

 

Another priceless sad face

Coming in my place

So if I'll ever need some sympathy

I won't get it this time from me

 

Well this home

It can always be a game to me

But it seems I'm always losing

But the home isn't even fighting you see

 

You know I'll lose

And I also know I'll lose

So I'll have a drink

And other things to abuse

I know I'll lose

I always lose

 

If you want to come back

Don't ask permission from me

I will never be mean to me

It's not about you

It's about me you see

 

I know I'll lose

Like I always lose

As long as I never mix in

Any pride

I won't care much if I lose

Like I always lose

 

Come on and have your share

Go on and take more

It's not like I care

Theres always the long run to run for

So again this time you don't

Owe it to me to be fair

I'll just find another thing to use

So I don't feel so bad when I lose

Like I always lose

[emily !]

woah, i'm blown away by the talent on these boards. [:

[Jorgi]

i never usually write like, long pieces, stanzas are usually quite short. but have a long(er than normal) to break tradition.

 

turn off that radio

oh, it's been singing the same old lies

that i told you just last week

the same ones that, oh

the same ones i heard my parents speak

but wait, i'll wait

you just wait and we'll be fine

 

patience, i lied through my teeth

and through these sheets

my dear, i can't quite

make out your words

seen but not heard

so go back to sleep, back to sleep

 

i didn't ask for anything

you turn around and start saying

that i don't love you, oh

well i, i don't love you, so

don't turn your back on me

and don't point the finger at me

'cause i tried

i tried to hold on, to hold on, hold on

but you forgot

 

well it's my turn and i say,

i say you're useless and i'm afraid

it's all going downhill fro here

the sky won't fall far from here

but the rain will cry down,

will cry down all the way

and i say we'll all fall down on the way

but i'll try to hold on, to hold on, hold on

and i'm a mess.

 

draw us on the windowpane

i'll disapear and won't complain

but watch and i'm here

i'm right here, i'm here

i'll disapear but i'm right here,

so watch me now.

[emily !]

^ wow, that was great.

 

haha, i've decided to go all mayday parade and have a nice, long title. x]

 

 

Sometimes It's Easier Not To Kiss and Make Up.

I miss you now,

Now, that you’re still here.

His heart is drowning,

You’re bringing me down.

Please,

Put down the glass,

Turn this around.

 

The world just flew by,

And left us for dead.

With the part of two lips

And the tilt of a head.

 

Right now, Let’s dance,

Forget all the times,

The screaming, the lying,

Chemicals burning inside.

 

Each promise is broken,

And everything I wouldn’t do,

(everything I’d never do)

All of it is done.

The jealous stare of a scream,

My hypocrisy lied,

There’s nothing left for us,

(nothing left for us to do)

All of it is done.

 

The world just flew by,

And left us for dead.

With the part of two lips

And the tilt of a head.

 

You’re patience is more than welcome.

Let me peel off your disguise,

Gently kiss thy lips,

Wipe tears from blood shot eyes.

 

Now that this means something,

I’m sure it will do.

The meaning’s just as blurred,

As the eyes you see me through.

[emily !]

EDIT: craaaap! somehow i managed to post that twice.

[Jorgi]

^actually love that.

[{Alice Cullen}]

Beautifully Flawed

Beautiful distress, such a mess

the flaw you behold is captivating

it pulls me in as i try to escape

i’m like a fly stuck in your web

your surrouding me and ready to attack

your facade is gone, and we are one on one

the fear releases the grip it has on me

as you gaze deep into my eyes, my soul

i feel calm, you just want love,to be understood

free, in the arms of a fallen angel

we are now intertwined, flawed as one

Blurred Reality

 

In a dream

or is this reality?

the line is blurred

my eyes hazy in a fog

suddenly dizzy

where am i?

am i dead?

i reach out

your hand slips away

i fall trying to grip your hand again

but only to realize i’m bleeding

grasping onto a thorn covered bush

only a dream i think

only a dream

or is this a nightmare?

My Protector (Twilight Inspired)

 

Your topaz eyes gaze into mine

Like a fine wine, your all mine

I reach my hand out to touch you

To see if this is not at test

A cruel test of my unconscious state

You look at me and flash your crooked smile

Then grasp my hand and speak, it’s real you say,

I’m real

I suddenly feel faint, my blood flows to my feet

I feel myself drifting into the unconsciousness

Then suddenly I feel you grasp onto me gently as if I was a feather in the wind

So gingerly you treat me

A glass teetering on the edge of a table I am to you

Very breakable

For you are my protector

You are my vampire angel

[FrankiePoo]

I know your real

Kiss me now

Just a touch of the lips

 

I know you're in love

You can tell me

Talk to me

 

I know you want me

Feel me

Touch me

 

I know you want to die with me

Hold me

And Die

 

By Alannah

[Jorgi]

hide these shadows

and i'll hide my shame

i say i, i'll hide my face

and i'll fade away

don't let me shine

(don't let me shine)

everyone will see

and i, i'll be someone who isn't me

explain the pictures and who i could be

just don't let me shine

(don't let me shine)

i'll be fine

dismissed i, i'll be your piece of mind

crouching low and with dry eyes

just don't let me shine

don't let me shine.

[STOPthissong!]

^ beautiful <33

what the hell happened?

 

I have forgotten what things used to be like

we'd watch the rain as it declined

whilst linking hands like twins

we didn't like the way we were

so we broke down the wall that stood between us

and ignored the passing glares

 

pardon me, but do you rememeber

what went wrong with the picture?

Because somethings's wrong with the way you talk,

it crushes down on my heart like a boulder

what the hell just happened here?

I loved you.

I really did.

[Jorgi]

^I love that. (sorry i don't dig the word "boulder" though )

but like. all of it. (minus boulder ) is so good.

[STOPthissong!]

^ naah I wasn't fond of it either. I couldn't think of anything else at the time though

but thanks
