Die A Thousand Times

I was thinking I should do something that isn't so personal and pissy. This was what I came out with. I don't just wanna bitch about my life in my lyrics or all the things and people that piss me off, although it may seem like I do that a lot. Those songs are still heartfelt and could be a lot worse (like Slipknot lyrics *shudders*) but I needed to try something different. This is about basically everyone in my life (myself included) and how we complain about our lives,when really we have it pretty damn good. I know it doesn't do much good but; dedicated to the people who are actually suffering. x


Die A Thousand Times

Tell me the story of your life,
Then let me guess the ending.
You can't take away my eyes,
You can't take away his lies.
Why we complain I'll never see,
This world just seems corrupt to me.

I'll sing for you,
Like the sun sings for the damned blue skies,
I'll fight for you,
When the people hide their only lies,
And we'll die...
And we'll die a thousand times.

Tell me a story of a far-away land,
Then let me bring you back again.
Don't you see the suffering men,
Don't you see the tracks again.
Our lives aren't tragic we have so much more,
And yet we feel so underscored.

I'll sing for you,
Like the sun sings for the damned blue skies,
I'll fight for you,
When the people hide their only lies,
And we'll die...
And we'll die a thousand times.

I'm tired of your reflections,
I'm tired of seeing black and white.
I'm sick of all your expectations,
I'm sick of all this unearned time.

I'll sing for you,
Like the sun sings for the damned blue skies,
I'll fight, I'll fight,
When the people hide every single lie,
And we'll die,
We'll die a thousand times.

Take It All

Subtle right? Haha,venting my frustration on my songs. Started as a rap like old LP (Xero) songs but turned into this massive dramatic semi-acoustic thing.
To be continued. I don't know if I want to make it longer but it will end on that chorus for sure. Err,talking about a couple of people in this song. They're both my friends,one more than the other. Written about them but it can be about any attention seeking situation really. For anybody who feels they get caught in the middle of their friends' depression. Enjoy x

Take It All

Lives were lost today,
But I'm sitting here as you throw yours away,
Everything I thought about everyone I knew,
Has gone or has changed and you've got me confused,
I'm on the edge, so close to giving up,
Your pain and hurt is another's good luck.

You want attention (take it)
You want pity (take it)
You want my sanity,you want my time,
Just take it,take it all.
Oh take it,take it all.

Can't you learn to live with what you've got,
Slit your wrists 'cause you're fucked up,
But I'm not buying your life dear,
Do you take me for a fool,
I know the trick you're trying to pull,
And I'm so tired and I'm on edge,
I won't save your life again,
Just scream,before you count to ten.

You want attention (take it)
You want pity (take it)
You want my sanity,you want my time,
Just take it,take it all.
Oh take it,take it all.

You're not on your own,
You're dying to be,
I'm suffering behind this mask,
But I won't let you see.
I don't want to take it all.

You want attention (take it)
You want pity (take it)
You want my sanity,you want my time,
You want help but you're doing fine,
You want it all,you want it all,
Just take it,take it all.
Oh take it,take it all.
Take it,take it all.
