These are some lyrics I wrote a while ago... whilst one of my friends was having bad time with these kind of issues.

please comment with respect, x

first one (: (by the way, neither of these have titles yet, so if you have any suggestions?)

Where I go now nobody minds
My broken heart and bloodshot eyes
My laugh has shattered, my soul has gone
There is no cure now, it’s been too long

What’s the point? My life’s a mess
I look so scared in my tattered dress
My reflection in a dusty mirror
I close my eyes, come no nearer

Black shadows flicker on the wall
Rats run across the dirty floor
I shake in a corner, I’m going mad
When I think of the life I haven’t had

My hands shaking, I write the letter…
Hoping to make them all feel better…
The wooden stall and tight frayed rope….
Then death and I… slowly elope



And now the second one! (ooh, this is sung with a girl singing the main parts, and possible the stuff in brackets by a guy?


Cold dark places nowhere to go
You can’t chase me I’m all on my own
Running from you (running from love)
Running from me (running from blood

Can’t make me come back
But I need you to attack
One more night (one more fight)
One more fight (There is no light

Now I’m running. I’m running away
Can’t stop myself falling(please save me the pain)
I’m trying so hard, I try not to fade
Please save me(save me) from the pain


hmm..
Ever seen a blind man cross the road
Trying to make the other side?
Ever seen a young girl growing old
Trying to make herself a bride? - Handbags and gladrags

Did you write these yourself? They're amazing. . . :smt001
The depth of feeling. . . wow. . . if the words are this beautiful then imagine if they were sung. Do you play an instrument? What I mean is; have you ever played music to this? It would be really good.
Keep up the awesome work. :D

These were really well written and had powerful emotions behind them that came through beautifully.

Just a point, if you broke them up with spaces it would make it easier to read instead of having a mass of writings. That's the only thing negative I have to say, otherwise these are absolutely amazing.

One last note the use of rhyme was very well done, not something that everyone can pull off.

Holy crap....................This was awesome!!!!
Though this is more like a poem. But as a song I am imagining, Corey Taylor, the singer from slipknot singing this. The rhyming was great and this lyric(Or poem) where in a great rythem. I would like to ask you if you can do this alot more. It was cool! :twisted:
By the way name your song: Pain :twisted:
Blood is red
But Heaven is blue
The Devil will fined out
And take you

How about 'dirty mirror' or 'running away'
Blood is red
But Heaven is blue
The Devil will fined out
And take you

Ooooh! This is amazing! Really really really good! Yes, it is quite depressing but that's okay! I like the first one the best. It really paints a picture, a depressing sad one, but a powerful picture no less. As for the name, I like Dirty Mirrors. :)

So apparently this is already a song...
"You grow, you grow like tornado
You grow from the inside
Destroy everything through
Destroy from the inside
Erupt like volcano
You flow from the inside
You kill everything through
You kill from the inside"
