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

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

    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)

    i feel like contributing

    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)

    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*

    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

    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

    *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
    That which you manifest is before you.

    Great song Azzy!

    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

    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

    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'

    Great songs, Monai and Anon!

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

    *edit* nevermind, I posted it somewhere else

    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
    That which you manifest is before you.

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

    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

    That's really well written Monai.. you're a good writer. I like it!
    That which you manifest is before you.

    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?
