Miss Scarlet' date=' with the knife, in the Kitchen[/b']

 

On goes that cleavage bearing red dress,

The one that hugs onto every curve

On go your diamonds and your pearls

Douse yourself in expensive French perfume.

Eyelashes are your secret weapon

Accessorized with ruby red lips

Used to hypnotize every man

Before you send them their final kiss

 

You’re dressed to thrill, but also dressed to kill

Hook line and sinker, you lured me in

 

How are you planning to kill me?

Is it a rope in the conservatory?

(Tie it tightly around my throat

I watch you laugh as you watch me choke)

 

How are you planning to kill me?

Is it a revolver inside the study?

(Gun pressed firmly against my head

Pull the trigger and I’ll drop down dead)

 

They say you’d get away with murder

All you’d have to do is wink and smile

And after months of careful scheming

You’ve found the perfect way to end me.

 

On this night you’re going to prove them right

I’m standing there, blissfully unaware

 

How are you planning to kill me?

Is it a rope in the conservatory?

(Tie it tightly around my throat

I hear you laugh as you watch me choke)

 

How are you planning to kill me?

Is it a revolver inside the study?

(Gun pressed firmly against my head

Pull the trigger and I’ll drop down dead)

 

You slip into the kitchen,

Oh so quietly

and grab a knife from the drawer

That you left there for this moment

 

As you sneak up on me,

Oh so quietly

you raise the knife up in the air

And plunge it deep into my back.

 

AWESOME I love it!

 

This ones is about my friend Hailey:

 

Verse One

Shattered glass she swallowed whole

Blood shed upon this broken road

I want to close my eyes and see you there

Nobody deserves this

You didn’t deserve this

 

Chorus

We’ll build the walls

They’ll break them down

Catch us by the throat

Leaving us with empty hands

They robbed of us of our dreams

left them scattered along the road

 

Verse two

In this bottle

The note that you signed

Seeping threw the top

is cherry red dye

The blood is on my hands

Bitter guilt and remorse

burned your words to the ashes

 

 

Chorus

we’ll build the walls

they’ll break them down

catch us by the throat

leaving us with empty hands

They robbed of us of our dreams

left them scattered along the road

 

 

 

Murderer was blinded

By the alcohol on his breath

A sheet covering his sober eyes

A bump in the road

a careless act

caused Hailey silence that night

[Rogue Ninja]

^ that's really powerful and well written. And really sad.

[SingMeASong]

^ that's really powerful and well written. And really sad.

 

Thankyou,you rock

Mark Hides In His Work

 

So this is you, the skinny loser with the 16mm camera and the ugly sweater who ends up alone at the end. You knew it would happen. You stepped back to watch the action. How could you take part in it? You finished your film. Now what? Will you start a new one? Or will you finally get back to living? Lose the lens that lets you see everyone while no one sees you? So this is you, the skinny loser with the 16mm camera and the ugly sweater who ends up alone at the end. This movie is just starting. Are you going to be alone this time, too?

[SingMeASong]

I like it good job.

[Rogue Ninja]

Thanks.

That's awesome

[Rogue Ninja]

Thanks.

[Down_Set_Go]

this is like a peom/song thing so yea...

 

Mother! Please Don’t Throw Away the Dress-Up Clothes I Still Want To Pretend.

 

Dance!

Sing!

Run!

From the sorrows that haunt you and your dreams.

They haunt your daydreams and

Terrorize your night dreams.

Listen to the girl as she sings there’s a monster outside my window and in my mirrors.

It creeps into the house.

Oh!

A cold hearted object.

What bitter things you bring upon us.

 

But girl don’t watch the monster.

Every eye you place upon it chips away at the integrity you cherish.

 

Aren’t you tired of these white lies?

Of these cold and empty sighs?

Look in the mirror! No! Don’t close your eyes.

Look straight at your glazed over eyes.

This! This is what you have become.

All because you have let that dark thing seep right into the very depths of your soul.

Aren’t you disgusted?

 

Now run without singing or dancing.

No skipping or hopping, for you are too weighed down.

Only screaming as you flee for your life.

A sharp piercing scream.

Girl, be quiet you make our ears bleed.

And our hearts weep.

Take it off! Oh! Please take off that hideous mask.

That mask that you wear as a gimmick.

When she talks to me she says only what she wants me to believe.

Never does she say anything about what she is hiding behind her mask and closed doors.

 

Aren’t you tired of these white lies?

Of these cold and empty sighs?

Look in the mirror! No! Don’t close your eyes.

Look straight at your glazed over eyes.

This! This is what you have become.

All because you have let that dark thing seep right into the very depths of your soul.

Aren’t you disgusted?

 

Are you done?

Or are you still pretending?

[Rogue Ninja]

This isn't me.

I don't know who this is.

But I don't like her.

She doens't think the way I do.

She doesn't do the things she should.

She wants to much for what she's willing to do to get it.

She whines, cries, complains, does nothing about it.

She hates sympathy, but at the same time thrives on it.

She doesn't want to talk about what's wrong.

Not to any one who can help her.

Because she thinks she knows everything.

She thinks that if she can't help herself, no one can.

This isn't me.

I don't know who it is.

But I don't like her.

[MeLoN]

Im depressed&crap in general. I have a funeral today. I feel like dying..so I wrote this ::

 

The good kind of dying

 

I find myself in the dark

Holding on to things untrue

I never had to build a wall

This high than here with you

 

My head is in war with myself

Im hearing you beautifully lying

They shot me down this is something to tell

This is the good kind of dying

 

You laced your shoes backwards

You made me cry be proud

You make it all just that little bit worse

When you say no hiding allowed

 

Im laying on the floor for everyone to see

Cutting my wrists turning pale

Bleeding bleeding so easily

And you're watching me fade

 

But this is the good kind of fading and death

This is dying with no reason at all

The good kind of bleeding instead

This is choosing to fall

 

&I dont mind, Im willing to bleed

Willing to break myself

I know I know "You" is me

This was my story to tell.

Heres a Song i wrote over 3 years ago. Recorded the music but never the vocals (haha i couldn't sing to save my life tho writing this song probably saved it). Anyways enjoy

 

Dream World

 

Verse 1

All the times we talked, I saw it as any other thing

Didn’t notice why u never called me back, kept me wondering

Expelling the bad vibes, that was being thrown at me

Suspending real life, to not let it get to me

 

Throw a blanket over reality

Never know the truth that blinds it

Don’t want to see the light outside the prison

This world of mine is what makes me a person

 

Verse 2

All the times I dreamt of doing the impossible

Never noticing that it was never plausible

Never had the strength to do anything

I thought you gave it to me, but was a shadow in the dark

 

I never wanted things to be this way

The helpless feelings that inhibits my mind

All I wanted to see, was myself as a hero

But my dream world was shattered to zero

 

Chorus

All I wished for was to make you smile

To make you happy, free from denial

But this self afflicted pain, causing all the troubles

Nothing can get me out of this rubble

 

All I wished for was just to kiss your lips

Just hold you day by day, full of bliss

But nothing can destroy my imagination

The integrity of my fascination

I really like that alot!!!

 

:This one I just wrote and still has some editing to do,but it was dedicated towards Paramore,and their band,like it's what their saying.I'm not trying to put words into their mouths either,it's just what I see the band as enjoy:

 

Trust Unsnappable:

 

I know,I know

you’ll shove us down

Test our strength

it’s beyond belief

And I pray we stay the same

and I hope that we’ll remember

the days when we fought with no weapons

Because our friendship doesn’t come often

And this trust,doesn’t snap easily

 

 

Growing up,it’s never enough

do the things you do without

questioning who you are

no second chances for living lives

and we’ll make the best

I know we’ll make the best of it

 

 

Whining without question

words without answers

misterys unsolved

we’ll be good enough for them

no we’ll never be good enough for them

because our friendship doesn’t come often

and this trust,doesn’t snap easily

 

 

 

 

we’ll fight for our beliefs

and we believe we can do this

and we believe we won’t lose

You may say it’s all a dream

dreams are meant for sleeping

but we hold onto our dreams

and we made them reality

this trust,doesn’t snap easily

[MeLoN]

Whoa. good stuff people! Kay..Heres something I wrote yesterday ::

 

Run away, its easier

 

Its when I try to talk but it shuts me up again

When life gets better while the worlds about to crash

&when my mind becomes too hard to explain

That’s when I smile and run away

 

Its every time I snap at you for no reason at all

Its breaking down and building up a wall

When time becomes faster than me living a day

That’s when I smile and run away

 

*But the smile is just a mask for the words I cant speak

&running is the only way for me to breathe

I cant get a shot at life cause I am in the way

&I never listen to a single word you say

When it gets hard I hold onto hiding this

&wait for a better day to live.

 

Its every time I try to love but end up being wrong

Every time I forget the words when Im supposed to sing along

When I was left alone and ignored the attention they gave

That’s when I smiled and ran away

 

Cause sometimes I have to be wrong in order to feel right

Sometimes I have to cry in order to smile

Its when I want to bleed &tell you not to be afraid

That’s when I smile& stay.

[MeLoN]

Time will tell

 

I know nothing at all today

So I make another stupid face

And hope things turn out okay soon

Cause I don’t like this world alone

 

I used to see this life so clear

Never breaking down in tears

Or feeling like I lost again

Cause things were always like they're meant.

 

*But now I only twist and turn

Hoping that this bridge will burn

So I have nowhere else to run to

And Ill have to solve this without you

Life isn’t going to let me run away that easily

But I’m sure,

Time will tell me how I’m supposed to feel

 

I don’t know who I’m talking to

Just know this is what I wanna do

The idea keeps confusing me

Who am I, who is "me"?

 

Trying to figure out if what I did was a mistake

Maybe I, yeh maybe I should’ve ran away

Again, cause that is what I do and I

Well I might as well lay down and die

 

*

 

But I am only talking to myself

Knowing this is nobody else

But me, who's living an average life

Including cries and smiles

[kissablexthreat]

the room's dew' date=' her sweat

smell the vodka on her warm breath

blood rush to her face

run, rush to escape

lashed at and unsafe

you'll see, just wait

itll be like nothing ever happened

 

over again

your loss

invested trust in her

robbed her for all shes worth

now youre no better

 

 

 

hey thats good.

 

 

I wrote that about my mom a while back.. haha I used to write a lot more but then I noticed I sucked so I stopped until I needed to write something.[/quote']

[devotion]

wow, you guys are all amazing writers.

i cant write anything like that.

[Renith182]

Hey everyone. Heres another song i wrote more recently (a year and a half ago haha). Well the song's about a girl. I guess you can figure out the rest.

 

 

CATCH 22

Verse 1

-As I pretend to hold you all night long, knowing next Thursday you’ll be gone

-Cherish these moments I still have with you, in June the days will all go wrong

-My mind is blurred full of awkward thoughts, my heart can’t stop beating just for you

-Saw you tonight with eyes all over, First times will always be the last

Verse 2

-Looked at you then time is always slower, still frames forever embedded in my mind

-Wished you stayed longer in the corner of my eye, the end of the carousel was always nearby

-Persistently hoping I’d be given the chance, reflection in the mirror told me the answer

-Ambient noise destroys all connections; one-way emotions I dreamed would come to pass

Verse 3

-Waited all day to just find you once that night, held back feelings that never come out right

-Saying ‘I love you ‘would break my outer shell, doing nothing would keep it locked inside

-The smoke rises to the hollow point, still cant stop trying to get your attention

-But when the last note rings where your ears open up, words still don’t come out still rolling about

Chorus

-Such lovely feelings making me fall apart; false hope and false reality will never be pardoned

-If only I met your earlier when the world was bright, but life is last minute, three strikes and im out

-Revised emotions of a darker mood, gets overwhelmed by the doubtful good

-But all that matters right now is this, will I see you again? In this Lifetime at least

bridge

-Ask myself why its gaining momentum, train of hope crashes into my heart

-Punch the glass and feel the blood, run into the river of lost pride

-Ask myself why its losing momentum, never want it to end, don’t want it to end

-The story ends with no remembrance, end of the chapter of Cara McLeod

Outro

-If I met you earlier would this all be different? If you weren’t with him would I be significant?

-The day I met you I didn’t know what to say, If I met you earlier would it all be the same?

[x_Ang_x]

those r all so gd

[Renith182]

Heres another song i wrote about the same time as the last. Its related to what happened in Catch 22, with lyrics buldozed from the bottomless pit i call my heart. Enjoy

 

Days Gone By

Verse 1

-Left at 1 o’clock to see you, the ride over saddened with thoughts

-Wednesday afternoon you existed, a warm entity within my heart

-Remembering the first time I saw you, gazing into those beautiful eyes

-2 weeks from then now we’re here, saying our last goodbyes

Verse 2

-Arriving at my destination, to see your smile just one last time

-The stillness of the air between us, broken by words that cant come out

-Talking about lives ahead of us, the hug I wish would never end

-When I left the door shut on me, with tears pumped straight to the heart

Pre-Chorus

-One lifetime for everyday spent without you

-Regrets kicking me in the ass

-One lifetime for everyday spent without you

-Fate keeps kicking me in the ass

Chorus

-If I knew you earlier would this all be different? From the wondering peaks today

-So short more than a friend more than the system, of bases we all love to play

-If I could’ve been the man always beside you, the one that catches you when you fall

-Will I be the only one to remember, counting the days gone

[badXmedicine57]

I just got this great chorus/ stanza.

 

Platinum dreams

Stretching the seams

Theyre unrealistic, We're unsatisfied

In a make-believe world is where we hide.

 

Not much but its a start to something.

[Rogue Ninja]

It hurts doesn't it?

Damn right, it does.

It always hurts.

Being wrong.

It's surprising you can still feel it.

You'd think you'd be used to it by now.

That it wouldn't hurt anymore.

Looks like you were wrong about that, too.

Wrong again.

There it goes.

Right on cue.

The stab.

Right through your pride.

The most sensitive place on you.

It hurts, doens't it?

Damn right, it does.

[badXmedicine57]

[nonxperfect]

Who am i to you?

Another friend that you

like to talk to?

or am i the person

the you can't get out

of your thoughts?

I've been thinking

could this be?

no it can't.

Friendships should stay friendships.

Shouldn't they?

Shouldn't they

The feeling of confusion over takes me.

What should i do?

I wish i had the answer,

then life would be much simpler

 

I wish knew what to do,

I wish i knew what to say

Are the feelings here?

or will they just go away?

If only

If only

If only i knew

 

Your words they stick

to me like glue

Try to wash it away,

but it just stays.

My thoughts run through

my mind at 100 miles per hour

SLOW DOWN!

I scream,

but it goes unheard.

Is this a chance i should take?

or a another "first"

i should skip?

 

I wish i knew what to do

I wish i knew what to say

Are the feelings here?

or will they just go away?

If only...

I wish i knew what to do

I wish i knew what to say

Are the feelings here?

or will they just go away?

if only...

if only

 

A song written in confusion,

A song written with emotion

A song written about you

 

I wish i knew what to say

Are the feelings here?

or will they just go away?

 

If only i knew,

if only we both knew....
