Songs You Wrote

[lion_roog]

Since we have a poems thread...why not a songs thread...here's a song I just wrote...:D

"Slow Ridin'"

I was drivin slow
I gotta drive slow
And y'all know
I'mma rebel like that, yo!

(chorus)
Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin'
We be Slow Drivin' as we Low ridin'
Yo!
Say What?!
Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin'
We be Slow Drivin' as we Low ridin'
Uh huh, Slow Drivin'
Uh huh, Low Ridin'
Yeeeaaahhh..Give it to 'em, Chico
Sllllllloooooowwww drivin'
Just like Nana

I got pulled over
And said 'what's up, foo!'
Cop say 'Chill out, due'
But he threw salt in my game
Acting like he knew my name
But he just jealous of my fame
Cuz I was slow ridin' lake it rains
Rollin on my dubs
at fifty below to the clubs
Why go Fifty five
when you can just go five?!
Show the patrol you can't hold my soul
Forty miles per hour below, yo!
Now let me hear my Thugs and Gangstas!

{chorus)
Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin'
We be Slow Drivin' as we Low ridin'
Yo!
Say What?!
Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin'
We be Slow Drivin' as we Low ridin'
Uh huh, Slow Drivin'
Uh huh, Low Ridin'
Yeeeaaahhh..Give it to 'em, Chico
Sllllllloooooowwww drivin'
Just like Nana

Quit your honkin'
Unless you cute
Then boots we be knockin'
As we slow ride all up the East Side, Aight
10 in a forty is enough to get you horny
Just remember my story
about how I rebeled to glory
Got a mouth and I'm onry
As I slow ride
In my low ride
Throw your hands in the air
And let 'em know how you do
And it just ain't fair
Until you drive like I do, foo
Slow Ridin' fo' sho' I know what you blindin'
To the fact that I got my act so climbin'
Like a low on the hidin' inside my mind, G
You Gotta be Slow Dri-ving
Tell 'em all about it, Boyz!

(Chorus)
Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin'
We be Slow Drivin' as we Low ridin'
Yo!
Say What?!
Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin' Slow Drivin'
We be Slow Drivin' as we Low ridin'
Uh huh, Slow Drivin'
Uh huh, Low Ridin'
Yeeeaaahhh..Give it to 'em, Chico
Sllllllloooooowwww drivin'
Just like Nana

Lol nice Roog. :p I'm writing a song at the moment, but I have a bit of a writer's block.. I'll post it after I finish..

[lion_roog]

:haha:...Futurama is awesome..:D

Thanks, guys.....and Somby...if you need something to write about...write some lyrics about the cucumber shortage...:D

I just want my cucumber
You got my number
Just remember the bread and butter
Make it Wonder
and I Can't Believe It's Not Butter
Holla!!!

I went to the store
Something like before
But once I got my brocolli
I noticed they were out of my veggi
Cucumber got my number
I can't have no other my Brotha
And I ain't ready
to not have it in my Spagetti

:D

It's just off the top of my head...:D

My songs and poems are completely random and weird, But thats what I am so I guess they match >)


Loving you again.
By: Kovu The Lion


In this world that we live in
In this world of make believe
People find each other..
Fall in love, Then just leave.

Is it possible to stay together
and stop lieing about each other
Just stick with the ones you love, Forever...
Find out why I'm singing..
Find out why I'm Writing...
Find out why i'm Mourning..

Girl, I do these things for you
I fight, and I try so hard..
But everytime I turn around you point out every mistake that I DO.


I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE
I Don't' belong in this house
THATS WHY I'M PACKING UP AND WALKING OUT THE DOOR!!!
You can't trust me, You can't believe in me
Why should I be in love with something I can't even see...!!!


10 years has gone so fast...
I start thinking of the good times, Oh how I wish they would last..
But now I am...

Walking through this town..
I'm strolling through the crowd east-bound.
I run into a stranger,
It seems as if I know her.. So familiar.. But so much danger..
That pretty face she had..
I just can't get it in my mind, she's the one that drove me mad...!!!!!

Who, what, when and where
do you have to come upon me like this, Like you don't even care,
I look at you and I wonder.. Do I even know you..
We stare and then look away,
and start to walk..
And walk.. Away.. And to this very.. DAY!!!!

Why did I ever leave you!!!
I don't even know why, I tried and I did what I did, but baby I do!
I do Love you, Still mourning, still crying, still living in this world of make believe.
Please come back to me, Don't push me back and tell me to leave
I want you again, Please give me another chance
I swear I won't break another promise, I'll believe in this romance
I want you to come back... I'm begging you darling.. Don't look away from me..
Baby please.. I'm wanting you... I made a mistake..
Left you and that house so long ago.. And then my life was nothing but a fake...
I want you to forgive me.. Let me try one more time, to love you..
Because loving you was my life...
And since I've left you I've lived nothing but strife...

BUT NOW!!! WE MEET AGAIN!!!
I love you now more than ever before!!
I want to take you in my arms and never let go..!!
Because baby i want you to ....Know....

I ..... Love you.. Forever and... Always...

Word you got some ill rhymes Homie..:cheese:

[Azerane]

I wrote a bit more of this song (which I accidently originally posted in the poems thread :p) but yeah.. still not complete and no tune yet, which is kinda bad as generally there should be a tune before lyrics but you get that :p :D

There you are at the end of the world
Sitting in your mind thinking of that girl
And you wonder, will it last?
Here we are, at last together again
Holding hands like we used to way back when-
We were younger, these years past.

But where are you when the sun goes down?
And where are you when my tears pour out?
And where are you? I wanna shout

?Cos today is here, just like you said
But where are you, I?ve tears to shed
You said you?d be here, I?ve fears I dread
But here I am wiping tears instead
Where are you? Where are you??

You may think loneliness is my friend
You may think emptiness is my trend
But here I am, here I am, here I am?.!

And I wonder,
Do you see the stars in the sky tonight
Is the full moon just as bright-
To you?
Raining down this cooling mist
The shadowed clouds they are all new
They weren?t here when you were-
In my life

?Cos today is here, just like you said
But where are you, I?ve tears to shed
You said you?d be here, I?ve fears I dread
But here I am wiping tears instead
Where are you? Where are you??


Oh yeah, did I mention it was crap? :D

[Simbaspirit]

*teary eyes*

i love it!!!

I look at you
While you look at me
And wonder how it can be
That you love I
Just a simple girl
You make me feel out of this world
You hold my hand
And hug me close
And tell me how you would be
All alone in this lonely world
If it wasn't for me

(chorus)
So come on, lets go
To a world where we
Just can be you and me
So take my hand
And lets run away
To a place where you and I can be.

She looks at me
And shakes her head
Asking if im blind, can I see
he's not The One she says
he won't do
he's not from a good society
hes black, a negro
who just won't do
he gets bad grades in school
You're banned from seeing him, never again
should i see his face

(chorus)
So come on, lets go
To a world where we
Just can be you and me
So take my hand
And lets run away
To a place where you and I can be.

I run away
to find you here
searching for an identity
I look in your eyes
they seem so sad
How i wish that I could take your pain
You smile at me
With your sad brown eyes
And say that it can never be
I hold you tight i wanna never let go
As we whisper words of love, quietly

(chorus)
So come on, lets go
To a world where we
Just can be you and me
So take my hand
And lets run away
To a place where you and I can be.

It's been five years
I look at your grave
In loving memory
You took your life
To end your pain
And with you took a part of me
Why did you leave me
Where did you go
I cry these tears alone once again
You left me a letter, Said you did it for us
But why did you have to leave

(chorus)
So come on, lets go
To a world where we
Just can be you and me
So take my hand
And lets run away
To a place where you and I can be.

my sorry attempt at my first son that i just took 5 minutes to write:)

[Nicoga]

Wow. Just... wow. You guys are great writers. I'd probably cry to some of these lyrics if they were songs. *sniff* Awesome work, really. Um.. I don't have any to add to the collection, so I'll just act as admirer, eh?

[Azerane]

Aww Simbaspirit that song is so sad :alone: and such beautiful lyrics. For a 5 minute song it's very good.

And thanks Nicoga :)

[King Simba]

I'm in a writing mood lately so I decided to write this. I don't usually write songs but this one came to mind. =D

Twilight's Night :moon:

Verse 1

The sun goes down
And I look around
I see your face staring right at me
In a world of despair
I'll soon be there
Waiting for you to be there for me

Chorus

When the stars come out
And I hear that sound
The night always rushes upon me
The twinkling stars
And the crescent shaped moon
Show their faces at me

[Slows down singing and sings softly]

And tonight, oh this night
Is Twilight's night. Yeah.

Verse 2

I hear a sound
It feels like I've drowned
Underneath all of your sunny skies
In a world of despair
I'll soon be there
Waiting for you to be there for me

Chorus

When the stars come out
And I hear that sound
The night always rushes upon me
The twinkling stars
And the crescent shaped moon
Show their faces at me

[Slows down singing and sings softly]

And tonight, oh this night
Is Twilight's night. Yeah.

Bridge

And I can't stop thinking
The way we're believin'
On this peaceful September night
And I look at the past
And I hope it will last
The day I found your heart

[Pauses]

The day I found your soul
And the day I found your love
[Louder] It's Twilight's night

Chorus [x2]

When the stars come out
And I hear that sound
The night always rushes upon me
The twinkling stars
And the crescent shaped moon
Show their faces at me

[Slows down singing and sings softly]

And tonight, oh this night
Is Twilight's night. Yeah.

Yeah. Oh, Twilight's night.
I'll be alright.

[Fades out.]

[Simbaspirit]

awww. i <3 it!!!
and thanx Azerane:)

[Huma]

something just made up


The End of Days



Where is the end of candies
When are we done with breathing
Where have all the pouring rain of today gone with rainbows
Where is the soul inside the body
And I'm done with searching
Oh, where is the fading song at the end that round my story

All is right, is right, is looking back from the mountain height
Now is now, is the stop we rest, is the product we have to satisfy
Reverse an hourglass now, and count one thing off my life
Ask me what I get that marks, the end of my days

Doing what you believe right now
Saying what I don't believe worth hearing
What you and I worth now is washing away with the pouring rain
Oh, do make up a hearty smile
Oh, do punish self when you fail
Please, please don't count your life by the majesty of the sun rising setting

All is right, is sad, is looking back to where we bend
Now is now, is the hope we rely, is the point in design
What is my fear, I lose it now, and count one thing off my life
What, what you get that marks the end of days

Oh, why
Why don't you ask
What you get
What marks
Day after days

Oh, why
What's the catch
What's the life
At the end
Of my days

All is right, is right, is interrogating my mind myself my quest
(and I'm so scared)
Now is now, is the everything I have, is the remnant of my life
(that's so I have to ask)
I don't want no more dreams, and count one thing off my life
(Oh I'm losing, I'm falling)
Oh, that's why I mark, that's why I know, the end
(end to my reliance)
The end
(end to my associations)
The end of days

[Simbaspirit]

thats really good, Huma.

[lion_roog]

Man, I haven't visited this thread in a while...and some of these songs are really good...:cheese:

Here's one I recently Wrote...the lyrics in parenthesis "( and )" is suppost to be background vocals...:D


Be There For Me (I Don't Want to be Lonely)

Baby
Will you always
Be there for me
Or am I
(Or should I)
Destined to be lonely
(Expect to be lonely)
Baby
Will you always
be there for me
(there for me)

It's mid May
And I don't know which way
We're gonna go
Why don't ya let me know
Baby
The things you say
Have got me thinking
Maybe things aren't working
And all sorts of things
Start forming inside my brain
Like do you really love me
Because the things you do
Have got me wondering
(wondering)
Will you always
Be there for me
(for me)
Or am I destined
to be lonely
In this world
that's spins so coldly
So hold me
And let me know Baby
Will you always
Be there for me
(Be there for me)

Baby
Will you always
Be there for me
Or am I
(Or should I)
Destined to be lonely
(Expect to be lonely)
Baby
Will you always
be there for me
(there for me)

Beautiful things
Are so hard to create
But so easily to break
And the world
Is full of pain
Looking for something
To take it all away
Baby
Please do that for me
Everyday
(everyday)
And I'll love you
In everyway
(everyway)
You're the center
Of my universe
But I wonder
If I'm even on your radar
Because sometimes
You seem so far...away
And it's got me wishing
To bring you to me
I don't want to be lonely
(Don't want to be lonely)
Beautiful Baby
(Beautiful Baby)

Baby
Will you always
Be there for me
Or am I
(Or should I)
Destined to be lonely
(Expect to be lonely)
Baby
Will you always
be there for me
(there for me)

The days are day
and the nights are night
Both dark and light
Both wrong and right
Hold me tight
Through both day and night
The ups and downs
The ins and outs
And everything they're about
Hold me now
Make me feel
How I should feel
Make it feel real
The fear in me
Has got me
Acting crazy
Acting insane
Save me, baby
Cure my illness
My fear of silence
Don't leave me
With no one
To lean on
I need this allience
I don't want to be lonely
(Don't want to be lonely)
I don't want to be lonely
(Don't want to be lonely)
*fade*

[Azerane]

Roog that's really cool.=D

[Daniel]

i feel like contributing :D

It's a re-write of Linkin Park's Numb i wrote for a Meteora remix album, but never decided to use them in the remixed song
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Suddenly I feel so alone
No-one cares for me
Not even those I know
I dont know what is troubling me
It's like a part of me
Has been stolen by you

(You just need to come out and say it, just need to come out and say it)
This feeling's causing me pain
But I don't know how to explain
(You just need to come out and say it, just need to come out and say it)

I become so numb
When I feel you near
When you're with me
There's nothing to fear
You love someone else
So it's not allowed
I want us to work
But I don't know how

It's really hard to stop thinking of you.
What is this feeling
That i've never felt before?
But I just hope that you feel the same way
The last thing I want
Is to ruin what I had with you


(You just need to come out and say it, just need to come out and say it)
This feeling's causing me pain
But I don't know how to explain
(You just need to come out and say it, just need to come out and say it)
And all I want to do
Is say how I feel about you

I become so numb
When I feel you near
When you're with me
There's nothing to fear
You love someone else
So it's not allowed
I want us to work
But I don't know how

All I Want
Is to say that 'I Love You'
But I Know
That you won't feel the same
Your heart belongs to somebody else

I become so numb
When I feel you near
When you're with me
There's nothing to fear
You love someone else
So it's not allowed
I want us to work
But I don't know how


I become so numb
When i feel you near
(Now I know what is troubling me)

I become so numb
When i feel you near
(Now I know what is troubling me)

[Sombolia]

So yeah, I originally posted this in the song lyrics thread because I was sortof kindof reallyembarassedbymywriting, but some people have told me they're good, so, here you go. >>;

Suburban Pipe Dream

I've spent these sleepless nights in vain
Denying everything, including my name
You're all liars, and we're all fakes
Besides, we spend too much time together anyways

Suffocating on this California air
Hollywood stares, suburban dreams
Happiness has called, but it's running late
That city by the bay, it's just a day away

I live life in the future
So your words are wasted on me
It's all wasted time
And I'm all wasted air

It's the golden state
With the silver lining
And sometime's it's alright
The sun is shining bright
But to me, this all looks grey

Suffocating on this California air
Hollywood stares, suburban dreams
Happiness has called, but it's running late
That city by the bay, it's just a day away



*runs far, far away*

[lion_roog]

I forgot about this thread...:D

Nice songs Daniel and Sombolia. And I wouldn't be embarassed by your song, Sombolia...it's good...:cheese:

[Monai]

I'm a little scared that I'm actually posting this, but here you go.

A Forthcoming Murder

Oh, what have we done?
Slowly, let's spin into the sun
God is a lie
Because he says we're all the heathens, so what am I?

And I don't mind
And I don't mind

Someone's coming to get you
So you can't go anywhere
Someone's trying to get you
I'm alive, I'm aware
Yeah

Oh, it's coming undone
Make it feel right like I'm the number one
I'm under a spell
It turned me into nothing but I'm alive and well

And I don't mind
And I don't mind

Someone's coming to get you
So you can't go anywhere
Someone's trying to get you
I'm alive, I'm aware
Someone's coming to get you
I don't mind but I wanted to be there
Someone's trying to get you
I'm alive, I'm aware

And there's something I don't understand
Why do they suspect me for a broken hand
I haven't made advances yet
I haven't got this trance out yet
And I don't want to die yet anyway

But I don't mind
But I don't mind

Someone's coming to get you
So you can't go anywhere
Someone's trying to get you
I'm alive, I'm aware
Someone's coming to get you
I don't mind but I wanted to be there
Someone's trying to get you
I'm alive, I'm aware

Someone's coming to get you
So you can't go anywhere
Someone's trying to get you
I'm alive, I'm aware
Someone's coming to get you
I don't mind but I wanted to be there
Someone's trying to get you
I'm alive, I'm aware

XP

[Sombolia]

Gah, that's a good song Monai. :] I'd listen to it. I liked this part; it stood out to me, for some reason:


I'm under a spell
It turned me into nothing but I'm alive and well[

[Azerane]

*slinks in* everyone's songs are so much better than mine... I wrote this one last night.

Heavy weather starts the day
That you went away
Never knew the reason why
This junction had to come
Empty echoes in the air
Silence everywhere
I don?t see how this life, could be the life for some

What do I do, how do I know?
If you?re coming home
What did you feel, what did you see
When you looked at me?
Everything?s changed, nothing the same
Seems that we are done

This empty room is staring at me
Everybody?s noticed that you?re gone.

People stop and people stare
It can be so hard to bear
Trying to hold on to life
When everything seems lost
Wonder if that I will learn
Taking a new turn
But everything we had here, was had at such a cost

What do I do, how do I know?
If you?re coming home
What did you feel, what did you see
When you looked at me?
Everything?s changed, nothing the same
Seems that we are done

This empty room is staring at me
Everybody?s noticed that you?re gone.

For it seems so long
Now that you?ve been gone
So I close my eyes
As this feeling dies?

Instrumental

Did you ever care to ask
Why I wore that mask?
It?s not that I was hiding love
I just didn?t want to hurt
I?ve hurt so many times before
I didn?t want to anymore
Yet now my heart is breaking as you see that mask is gone

What did you do, how did you know
That to leave was right?
What did I feel, what did I see?
When you left me be
Everything?s changed, nothing the same
Now that you are gone

Those hollow words you left out for me
Just seem so much sadder with each dawn

[Monai]

Great song Azzy! =D

Anyway, I decided to write something else. Since, well, I keep reading over my old song and don't like it much. XD

So, ladies and gents, enjoy.

Open-Minded Anxiety

Where was the rain on your face yesterday?
Seems to me it's gone
It's an affliction that tried to get under your skin
While you were undone
And whilst the undertone of darkness remains
The sky might finally turn blue again

Or maybe this is just another delusional day
Because it seems so damn unlikely the clouds will lose their gray
And even though I remember what it was like before
I realise that it just can't be like that anymore
And I'm a little tired of love anyway

Where were the stretchers to take me away?
Because I'm feeling numb
And maybe it's just a side effect of all those nights
When I wondered where you'd gone
And whilst I'd forgotten how to heal the pain
I think my blood might be running again

Or maybe this is just another delusional day
Because it seems so damn unlikely the clouds will lose their gray
And even though I remember what it was like before
I realise that it just can't be like that anymore
And I'm a little tired of love anyway

And yes, I'm sure that I can't be sure of anything anymore

Or maybe this is just another delusional day
Because it seems so damn unlikely the clouds will lose their gray
And even though I remember what it was like before
I realise that it just can't be like that anymore
And I'm a little tired of love anyway
And I'm a little tired of love anyway
And I'm a little tired

Cuz maybe this is just another delusional day
Because it seems so damn unlikely the clouds will lose their gray
And even though I remember what it was like before
I realise that it just can't be like that anymore
And I'm a little tired of love anyway
So let's forget about today

[Azerane]

Thanks ^^

That's a really cool song Monai, you've got some real nice lyrics.

[LunarCat]

awesome job Monai! they would make an great song! :D

[A-non-a-mus]

I wrote this a while back... for one of my fanfics... it's a dirge... (sung low, with minimal background music)
I did also write and perform the music sheet for this as well...

it was a funeral-type dirge...



(spoken)

where the smile once so oft seen to vanish so soon it's empty space

The melody of your sweet laughter to pass ever away heard now only in
memories
oft the passing of years draw ever near than the cold left upon thy wakeof
your absence from our midst


(sung ... mostly low tone)
gone away (away)
where hast thou gonethat stayest so long
our mind ever frozen upon thy presence

gone anon though thy warth doth remain
gone forever doth thou sweet voice
forever missed thou laughter so brightening,
come now as a hallow whisper as the wind doth blow

where thou pass oh beautiful years?
where thou pass oh voice so fair

for the comming of thy yearsof joy to end

for now doth thy smile fade from thy spilt life
how thine eyes shine 'er again
what life loved, thy spot left ever frozen in time
as thine end smile stay forever frozen upon thy lips

for one of such memories left to share
abruptly end, left unshared
no more shall thy smile warm the hearts of friends,
no more shall thy kind voice sooth the weary
for voice so fair to turn to naught a forign sound withen the distant
memories
for gone are the days of thine ringing laughter

Would that we had gone with you


(spoken as music begins to fade)

may thine life, thine voice,thine joy, thine dreams, thine memories, live
ever on
withen our hearts, withen our minds
may thine last embrace be not forgotten
may thine love be not lost

[Monai]

Sorry to be a necromancer, but I just wrote this. xD If you're wondering, it's about a couple, one of whom happens to be comatosed and paralysed. It starts off as the guy speaking, then the girl, then the guy again, then the narrator. I don't like it that much, but see what you think.

The Information Leak Which Led To My Downfall

The melodic breathing of your motionless comatosed body
Rocking me to sleep whilst fallen angels whisk the dead away
Talking to you in vain attempts to wake you
I'm wondering: Is this world now alien to you?
Do you still remember me?

I remember when we fell in love
We promised we would never part
But you're not waking for a start

And when you talk in your sleep
I can hear every word you say
Like a broken record you repeat yourself
I've heard a thousand times the four words: 'I still love you'

Inside this dream I can still hear him speaking, perched right beside
I'm paralysed
Reaching into my emotions and pulling me to tears
I'm not waking, but don't go yet, keep on talking
There's more to this story than I know already
If you leave will you still remember me?

I remember when we fell in love
We promised we would never part
But I'm not waking for a start

And when I talk in my sleep
I want you to hear every word I say
I never want you to move from me
I've said a thousand times the four words: 'I still love you'

I remember when I heard you for the final time
I was pleading 'keep on talking'
But you never spoke again

And when she talked in her sleep
He could hear every word she said
Like a broken record she said a thousand times
What would become her final four words: 'I still love you'

And we're closing this chapter on these souls
What a representation of a lost and broken life

And when she talked in her sleep
He could hear every word she said
Like a broken record she said a thousand times
What would become her final four words: 'I still love you'

[Neola]

Great songs, Monai and Anon! :cheese:

And I was wondering...do melodies count as "songs" you wrote? :curious:

*edit* nevermind, I posted it somewhere else :ayecapn:

[Azerane]

August 8-9th 2006
No title yet...

So quiet, Now that I'm here
Alone, at home
And there's air, filling this empty chair
Next to me
And I cry so hard I cannot see
Now you're far from me
And all I hear, is the wind, whispering

So long, That you've been gone
Let's say, away
But for you, it's home for you
It's plain, to see
And I wonder when I'll see you next
In this eternity
Without you here, it's just the wind, whispering

And every moment spent without you
Is not a moment I wish to live
Yet here I am, sitting here
Wishing the days away...
For you, and for me, I pray

My love,
How did we get here
So far, so far-
Away, from each other's embrace
As I sleep in this place you wake
And it seems to me we're doomed to be
So far across the sea
Where all that's heard, is the wind, whispering

And every moment spent without you
Is not a moment I wish to live
Yet here I am, sitting here
Wishing the days away...
For you, and for me, I pray

Long gone,
But not forgotten at all
My love, I love-
You more, as I think about the times
We always shared
Though with realisation sinking in
I know we'll be parted more
And once again it's just the wind, whispering to me

I hear it every night and day
Since you've gone away
I know we'll be together soon
But soon is not today
But the distance it is looming
And all I have is photographs
Nothing can console me but,
These memories of the past

So quiet,
Now that I'm here
Alone, at home-
So long,
That you've been gone
Let's say, away-
My love,
How did we get here
So far, so far-
Long gone,
But not forgotten at all
My love, I love... you

[Neola]

Beautiful yet sad...:(
That song is about Kintaru and you, isn't it?
If so, it really shows how you're feeling atm...hope you'll be together again soon :hugs:
And you better keep up the good song writing ;)

[Azerane]

Yeah, it is about us two. Thankyou for the compliments, much appreciated. :hugs:

[Monai]

Great song Azzy :) And hope you get to see him again, soon. :hugs:

Anyways, on a slightly different note, I wrote another song =) Hope you guys like it, this one is called...

Deceit for the Masses

Don't tell me you believed every word I said
Well, that was a grand mistake
No one ever told you?
I'm sorry dear, we're closing for the night

Maybe you're just too innocent
Or maybe i'm too much of a senseless disease

But this is the masterclass
In how to be a disaster
Both socially and mentally
Take it from me, you won't expect what you're about to see

Light the fuse!
Light the fuse to my ineptitude
Take away everything that's closest to me
Because it just might help
I don't think there's a reason i'm writing
But I just wish you well

Maybe you're just too innocent
Or maybe i'm too much of a senseless disease

But this is the masterclass
In how to be a disaster
Both socially and mentally
Take it from me, you won't expect what you're about to see
Is it just fantasy?
Or a shot in the dark?
Shot in the dark

Fast as the lightning striking you down
Taking away your throne and your crown
You won't be queen anymore
Once you have experienced this

But this is the masterclass
In how to be a disaster
Both socially and mentally
Take it from me, you won't expect what you're about to see
Is it just fantasy?
Or a shot in the dark?
Shot in the dark
Shot in the dark
Shot in the dark

[Azerane]

That's really well written Monai.. you're a good writer. I like it! :)

[Neola]

Yeah, I like it too ^^

Just out of interest...have any of you ever composed melodies to your songs? Or are you planning to do so?

[Azerane]

The songs I write generally have melodies to them, my most recent one did. Though I'm too shy to sing it too anybody because I don't think my melodies are any good :p

[This Land]

Go On azzy :D

You know you want to :noogie:

[Monai]

Only Human

Last night we went to see the play about your life
It was critically acclaimed, naturally
But actually, after two and a half hours of thinking it was accurate
We realise they cut of vital scenes of dreams about me

So darling, what do you propose?
A night on the tiles in bloodstained clothes
A venture into the scene of the crime
Taken at nine-thirty last night

Here are the photographs of what you did to me
Here are the transcripts of the lies you need to see
Here are explosives used to take away the pain
Of the long nights spent alone in summer rain
Take the matches and the greetings cards with you
There's nothing you could say that ever could be true
And as you're walking out the door you realise
These won't be the last tears to fall from your eyes

Another day, another revelation when you tell me you never loved me
But actually, it didn't come as too much of a shock
Especially when you consider the fact that you keep on lying
Please, it's too late to say 'I love you'

So darling, what do you propose?
A night on the tiles in bloodstained clothes
A venture into the scene of the crime
Taken at nine-thirty last night

Here are the photographs of what you did to me
Here are the transcripts of the lies you need to see
Here are explosives used to take away the pain
Of the long nights spent alone in summer rain
Take the matches and the greetings cards with you
There's nothing you could say that ever could be true
And as you're walking out the door you realise
These won't be the last tears to fall from your eyes

The perfect days are gone, and I'm sort of glad I no longer live in that illusion
But even though the times are gone, the memories remain with the confusion still attached

So darling, what do you propose?
A night on the tiles in bloodstained clothes
A venture into the scene of the crime
Taken at nine-thirty last night

Here are the photographs of what you did to me
Here are the transcripts of the lies you need to see
Here are explosives used to take away the pain
Of the long nights spent alone in summer rain
Take the matches and the greetings cards with you
There's nothing you could say that ever could be true
And as you're walking out the door you realise
These won't be the last tears to fall from your eyes

So darling, what do you propose?
A night on the tiles in bloodstained clothes
A venture into the scene of the crime
Taken at nine-thirty last night

And as the reality sinks in deeper, I hope you feel remorse
You are the only one who ever made me think it could never get worse
Although it always did, naturally

[Azerane]

:( Wow that's awful... so well and amazingly written... but right now, it's so heartwrenching.

[Monai]

Thanks Azzy ^^ Hope it didn't affect you too much, I didn't really write it for any purpose other than just to write, really. Sorry if it upset you, I definitely didn't intend that. *:hugs:*

[Azerane]

No, it's cool.. :hugs: not your fault. Just means it's a powerful song.

[lion_roog]

Wow! that's awesome work, Monai..:)

Here's something I've been working on tonight...:cheese:

"Am I dreaming" (Incomplete)

Am I dreaming

When will I awake

I hope it's not today

I hope
I hope
I hope this feeling will never go away

Am I dreaming

Or is this heaven

I hope this will never end

I hope
I hope
I hope this is how I will always be livin'

When I'm holding her close at night
My life feels as if it will always be right
Not a dark cloud in the sky
My Baby making me feel alright

When I look into her beautiful eyes
I feel as if a weight as been lifted from me
My life is just beginning
And she is my everything

When I run my hand along her skin
I feel as if I've been living in heaven
It is now eleven
And my heart is movin'

When I feel that kiss from her lips
I feel as if a beat my heart skips
She's my missing lioness
Everything that I've missed

Am I dreaming

When will I awake

I hope it's not today

I hope
I hope
I hope this feeling will never go away

Am I dreaming

Or is this heaven

I hope this will never end

I hope
I hope
I hope this is how I will always be livin'

She is the angel of my dreams
coming to me
To save me
Sweet baby
Making me
Feel so heavenly

She is the angel sent to me
coming to me
To save me
Sweet baby
Making me
Feel like it's meant to be

Am I dreaming

When will I awake

I hope it's not today

I hope
I hope
I hope this feeling will never go away

Am I dreaming

Or is this heaven

I hope this will never end

I hope
I hope
I hope this is how I will always be livin'

[Azerane]

That's good Roog, coming along real nice. Hope you finish it sometime :)

ADDITION:

Something I was working on a little while ago.. but blarg... didn't really get anywhere with it...

If I could paint a picture
Of my fondest memory
A starry sky would stretch so far
Above a sea of green
The greenest grass you?ve ever seen
On which we lay that day
A day that seemed so far, away?

For it seemed so long that we were not
Able to be with each other
And for so long I did not belong
Where I was without you
And I knew that I, though far apart
Could not settle for another

[Monai]

sorry to necro this, but i just wrote a song, and well, this is the place, i believe.

Song for Lake Michigan (completely random title, lol)

I have come to a point
Where the city ends
And we're into the motorway
The street lights thin and fade away
The roads are blacker than they seem
In the dark of the winter night we're driving through

I've come to a point
Where the reality ends
And we're into a fictional view
And here's me at a wedding
I've locked lips and eyes on you
Let's rejoice and drink fake champagne
For the vows that we never said

Because when we have no one to hate
We hate ourselves
The prevailing wind will change
And the clouds will focus on me
And drowning out the sunlight
Is the primary aim in the sadistic imaginary game

I have come to the point
Where the land ends by the river's bank
And the bridge towers overhead
The structure they called great
A great place to end a life
I'm sure that's what they meant
I can't find any other meaning

Don't dream, 'cause you'll dream yourself to death
It's a realistic thought
And if you wake, you might realise you're wrong

For every penny on the street
There's a guy out there who turns in his sleep
Because they know they didn't want anything that they got
But life never turns out the way that you want

[Monai]

I wrote another song. And I know I'm double posting, but it's been more than a week since my last post anyway.

Landfills

The line's there, and we've crossed it a few hundred times
The line between reality and your hallucinations is blurred
No matter how many times we try to draw it back in

And you've wrote 'i love you' on paper and plastic a thousand times
It doesn't apply anymore
You've burned some of them, the others you've simply scratched away the message

And your mind's fragile today
So we're leaving it alone, being careful not to touch
And you're sat there in the corner
Making marks on what's becoming a letter
Don't send this to me,
Because you and I both know that everything you say
Will fill up landfills, every word unread

Don't come looking for me, I've changed my address
By the time you find it, it'll be out of date again
Call off the search before it's too late

I know that you're writing the notes back in
To the places you burned and scratched off,
I hope you realise I'm not going to return the favour

Your mind's fragile today
So we're leaving it alone, being careful not to touch
And you're sat there in the corner
Making marks on what's becoming a letter
Don't send this to me,
Because you and I both know that everything you say
Will fill up landfills, every word unread

There's times when I figured it could work again,
But they've all faded into the distance,
It's complicated and I know we both want this
But we don't want anyone to get hurt,
It's better if we just leave this alone
Singing out of key to a fake attack of melody

Your mind's fragile today
So we're leaving it alone, being careful not to touch
And you're sat there in the corner
Making marks on what's becoming a letter
Don't send this to me,
Because you and I both know that everything you say
Will fill up landfills, every word unread

[Guntur]

Here's mine, it's not perfect, yet....

Forever.

Kau, Bagaikan sang suria (You are the sunshine)
yang menyinari hidupku, (That shine on me)
mengukir senyuman di bibirku (you make me smile)
membuat hatiku riang dan gembira. (and make me free and happy)

Dan ku, tidak tahu bagaimana (And I, Did not know)
ku hendak menunjuk cintaku padamu (how to show my love to you)
kerana kau sempurna untukku (Because you are the one for me)
selamanya. (Forever)

Wahai cinta, cinta lah aku (Oh love, love me)
kerna kau yang satu (because you are the one)
di dalam dadaku ini (in my heart)
oh cinta, datang padaku (Love, come to me)
dan kau juga tahu (And you know)
yang ku milikmu (I am yours)
Selamanya (Forever)

Indah, sangat terindah (Lovely, it's so lovely)
bila kau hampiri daku (when you come to me)
dan ku berikan padamu (and I'll give you)
cinta yang sempurna, (a perfect love)
demi kita berdua, (for you and me)

[Ciara]

go charlie ... :D:D:D :p sing it for me sometime when i drop by

[Cova_Lioness]

Roog's poetry its top brass

[Stimba]

Hey, you wanna hear something really emo? :lol: This is a song I wrote back when I was depressed, and nowadays it kinda makes me laugh...
Its supposed to be an aggressive song, thus the exclamation marks. And because the song is a metallic piece, the growling-parts are written inside of (these).. Enjoy...or don't! XD

Me, Me, Me!

(Kill me!), Kiss me!
(Push me!), tenderly..
(Beat me til' there's nothing left!
Mock all the things I kept -
Precious!

It doesn't effect me!)

(But still I'll keep laughing on the inside 666 feet under)
(The hate inside my head explodes!)
('Cause all the pain comes from my mind!)

Go asleep!
(I'll just destroy the world I'm in!)

(Kill me!), Kiss me!
(Push me!), tenderly..
All the time that I have wept..
Now that you've left..
(It doesn't effect me!)

My code is rotten! (Almost forgotten..)
My fire is finished! (Nearly diminished..)
The cold is filling me! (Slowly killing me..)
I am not who I used to be! (abused to the highest degree..)
(..where i am - no - longer -
ME!)
------------------------

To prevent double-posting, I'll post this nother one here..

Irreversable

(The red light catches my eye,
and without a thought I prepare to die.
But when I watch my life pass me by,
I decide..
...to stay alive.)

(We're going on this endless road,
which chokes us form the new inhalation.)

(I see them everywhere,
staring eyes with piercing glares.
The truth is not what you see.
It's building up inside of me.)

Can you hear the silence?
How it's calling to me, screaming to me.
Will you stay with me?
Can you hear the silence?

(We're going on this endless road,
which chokes us from the new inhalation.)

Can you hear the silence?
How it's calling to me, screaming to me.
Will you stay with me?
Can you hear the silence?
(Listen!)

(Just empty promises of empty future times.
But as I see the lies, my feelings die..
But I'm not who I seem to be.
No, I'm not, though I seem to be, no.)

(My only choice
is to raise my voice.
Do the irreversable!)

Can you hear the silence?
How it's calling to me, screaming to me.
Will you stand with me?
Can you hear the silence?







:lol:

"The Sound of Footsteps"

I hear the sound of footsteps
Within an empty hall
I turn to see, but to my regret
It's no one at all

I wonder where we got here
How it could come to this
And I can't help these tears, for crying
Of missing bliss

As I walked by today
The trees did all share whispers
And much to my dismay
The conversation was of us
Feeling lonely, feeling nothing at all
Seeing faces, seeing everything fall
For I'm at home today
And I'm alone, today

I look back at the memories
But find they are so blurred
Was it really all, that long ago
I thought I would have heard

I hardly recognise you
Your voice, the way you smile
It seems it's been much longer than
Just a short while

Can anyone tell me why this happened
And what became of us
Does anyone know when we were together
And what made us bust

Feeling lonely, feeling nothin at all
Seeing faces, seeing everything fall
For I'm at home today
And I'm alone, today

I hear the sound of footsteps
Within an empty hall
But I don't turn to look, for I know
It's no one at all

[Katari]

This was for Roog's rhyming thread in the Elephant Graveyard, but I wanted to put it here, too, so maybe some others would see it. :D


"Hard to Believe"

[Verse One]
If everybody could have a girl like this one
No, shut up and listen, 'cause she's my mission
It ain't rocket science, like some kinda illusion
Walked into my life, and just gave me some fusion

Don't tell me it's hopeless, yo, nothin' ever is
Get together later on, she gonna put me on skids
Nothin' don't matter, but the way that she feels
Please tell I'm not asleep, and this is for real

[Chorus]
I'm hooked like a fish; don't you wish you could be?
Got nothin' to hide; when I ride it's just her and me
'Cause she stole my heart; and I'll start to believe
When my fantasy's reality and it's all I receive

[Verse two]
If it just falls apart, like tomorrow, don't start
'Cause I've got the gas to fast like we in a go-kart
But now you say you mad, I'm not glad, not a fad
And the way you're dissin' me, makin' me look like I'm bad

Don't mean to offend, don't you ever say that it sucks
I was gonna cream yo' coffee like we was at Starbucks

[Chorus]
I was hooked like a fish; don't you wish you could be?
I had nothin' to hide; when I ride, notjust her and me
'Cause she stole my heart; and then tore it apart
Now you told me those lies, and I'll never believe
'Cause reality's my fantasy, the moment you leave

[Simbaspirit]

stimba, i would not be ashamed of those at all. they are really very good. i could hear the music in my head as i read the words... and i quite liked how it sounded :)
