Velocity Thunder

Trying to calm down and regroup after "Falling" so here's a more organised piece. Just a few ideas,nothing serious. Hmmmmm, if you're wondering about the title I have a short story :) (hooray!!) So my friend Lara suggested (i think i can't really remember how that went down) that I wrote a song called Velocity Thunder. I messed about with some guitar parts but the idea sort of faded away. The process was all backwards: writing a song to match a title? It didn't make sense. But when I wrote this, I couldn't think of a title but I was thinking about Lara anyways and so it sort of clicked. I have no idea...scrap? Hmm, I'm torn.

Velocity Thunder

The wind is plain, it's back again,
It brings rain and fountain pens,
Stormy nights, they're so deceiving,
If God falls down from the skies,
Oh wouldn't that be a sight.

Flying close to mountain sides,
Another broken window.
You pick up that stupid smile,
I know somewhere we can go.
With a show.

Always pleasing, ain't it so sad,
Forget who and what you had,
Cloudy lights, that we're revealing,
If gold falls down from the skies,
Oh wouldn't that be a sight.

Flying close to mountain sides,
Another broken window.
You pick up that stupid smile,
I know somewhere we can go.
With a show.
Uhoh.
Whoa.
And here we go.

Flying close to mountain sides,
Another broken window.
You pick up that stupid smile,
I know somewhere we can go.
And we'll go.
For the show...

Falling

Venting. Again. Maybe I should make that a tag...*ponders* nah. :) Ok...um, very personal and...well it's all explained in the lyrics. En processo. Couple of lines I'm unsure about. I'll get back to it, this one has promise.
Enjoyy x

Falling

Someone alone is always wrong,
But is there someone there for me,
Something now is always listening,
But is there someone there for me.

Do you recall the night that we fell apart,
(Do you recall, do you recall)
I was down on the ground and you broke my heart,
(You don't recall, you don't recall)
Well let me remind you...
It was black,
It was dark,
It was hell and I'm still here.
I'm still here; I'm still standing!

Shoot me down and call me always,
You're playing your last card.
I'll keep walking ignore the pain,
This time it went too far.

I am tired and always broken,
But this mask does so much for me,
I spend all nights awake in fear,
But this mask does so much for me.

Do you recall that night when we fell apart,
(Say you recall, say you recall)
I was down on the ground when you broke my heart,
(You won't recall, you won't recall)
Well let me remind you...
It was black,
It was dark,
It was hell and I'm still here.
I'm still here; I'm still standing!

Shoot me down and call me always,
You're playing your last card.
I'll keep walking ignore the pain,
This time it went too far.

And when you call me,
(When you call me)
Don't expect for me to hear the phone,
(I'm trapped alone and I can't hear it)
So when you call,
That you recall,
I'll be gone,
I won't be sorry,
I've gone somewhere that you can't hurt me,
Somewhere I can get some sleep,
Somewhere I can kill some sleep.

Shoot me down and call me always,
You're playing your last card.
I'll keep walking ignore the pain,
This time you went way too far.

You can't stop,
You're not calling,
I can't sleep 'cause I'm still falling.

It's Goin' Down by The X-Ecutioners feat Linkin Park

Somebody asked me if I had to listen to one song for the rest of my life, what would it be? Naturally, I knew it would be something to do with Linkin Park and/or Mike Shinoda. But earlier I saw this video again and I knew that this would be the song. I would never get sick of this.
Honest to God, I have no idea how Shinoda comes up with these lyrics...but they are...indescribable.

It's Goin' Down


It's going down,
The rhythm projects 'round the next sound,
Reflects the complex hybrid dialect now,
Detects the mesh of many elements compressed down,
The melting pot of a super-futuresque style,
The combination of the vocal caress,
With lungs the gasp for breath from emotional stress,
With special effects,
And a distorted collage,
Carefully lodged between beats of rhythmic barrage.

It's going down,
A logical progression on the timeline,
The seperation narrowed down to a fine line,
To blur the edges so they blend together properly,
Take you on an audible odyssey now;
It's going down.

Put it out for the world to see,
LP and X-Men to the 10th degree. (It's goin down)
Nobody in the world is safe,
When we melt down the wax in your record crate (It's going down)
Put it out for the world to see
LP and X-Men to the 10th degree (It's goin down)
Nobody in the world is safe
When we melt down the wax in your record crate (It's going down)

Once again it is;
Composed sentences all together venomous,
The four elements of natural force projected daily through the sound of the source,
Everybody on board as we blend:
The sword with the pen,
The mightiest of the weapons swinging right from the chin,
To elevate of mental states long gone with the wind,
To defend men from shoddy imitation pretends,
It's going down,
Style assimilation readily,
Trekking through the weaponry,
Of the pure pedigree,
Cleverly seeing through whatever is ahead of me,
Whatever the weather be,
We invent it steadily,
It's going down sub-terrestrial high,
I rhyme regiment that's calling the shots,
Exectution of colloborative plots,
Ready to bring the seperation of style to a stop.

It's going down,
A logical progression on the timeline,
The seperation narrowed down to a fine line,
To blur the edges so they blend together properly,
Take you on an audible odyssey now;
It's going down.

X-men 'bout to blast off world wide
X-men 'bout to blast off world wide
'Bout to blast off world wide
And you do it like this
Just like this

Put put...put it up
I said it goes like this
And you do it like this
It's going down
Put put...put it up
I said it goes like this
And you do it like this
It's going down

Turns to Nothing (Copied from LPUMB)

All copied from LPUMB. Not gonna go anywhere with this, but an interesting piece.



RUSH...QUICK...WRITING SOMETHING. Ok, so random, so fast, deep if you look at it. Dysfunctional relationships, caffeine, imaginary drugs, insomnia, heartbreak, attraction, denial. Etc. Hard Rock/Funk Rock/Alternative. Listen to Stacked Actors by Foo Fighters and you'll get how those combine.
Thanks for reeeading enjoyyy xxx


Turns to Nothing


Yeah I'm sitting back thinking nothing but your eyes,
Oh God what a lie, such a pretty little mind,
I'm not like that but I'm still not right,
I'm not doing crack or little white lies,
I swear I get higher every time I get high,
I swear I get high from the smell of your dye.

Oh what a dream to be shaken free,
Oh what a life to remember me,
Can't you read.

If I'm falling back it's all good I promise,
It's just not like this, you running into my fist,
I'm not asleep but I'm still not alive,
I'm not pushing pills or trying to fly,
I swear I fly higher every time I fly high,
I swear I get high, I swear I get high.

Oh what a dream to be shaken free,
Oh what a life to remember me,
Can't you read

Why did you leave.
Why don't you hold on to me.
Why did you leave.
Why don't we stop.
Why did you leave when I began to drop.

Oh what a dream to be shaken free,
Oh what a life to remember me,
Can't you read

I'll get higher for you...
I'll keep running for you...
I'll keep running,
I'll keep running,
I'll keep...

Oh what a dream
(Not such a dream)
Oh what a life
(A pretty lousy life)
Can't you read
Can't you read
Can't you read me.

No Eye Contact for Pathological Liars

Just some confessions...yeah I find it hard to make eye contact with people and when I do it makes me...angry? Just some musings. The first paragraph is an intro,played quieter than the rest. The rest of it is pretty conventional. Acoustic guitar. Mercury Summer by Fightstar inspired, although it now sounds nothing like it.
Enjoy.

No Eye Contact for Pathological Liars

Am I lost,
True to you I'll fall again.
Should have known from the start,
I never would be true again.

So why did it get so bad,
When did it get to this extreme,
Why would I fall apart,
Why would I pick at this thin seem.
I don't know...
Who I am anymore.

The world isn't moving,
Tell me I'm dreaming,
When did it all fall down to this.
The world isn't moving,
Tell me it's spinning,
When did my lies bring us to this.

So how will I make it back,
Haven't I ruined everything,
Why would I lie to you,
Why would I push your love from me.
I don't know...
Why I can't meet your eyes.

The world isn't moving,
Tell me I'm dreaming,
When did it all fall down to this.
The world isn't moving,
Tell me it's spinning,
When did my lies bring us to this.

I guess I know...
Why it's so hard for me...
To simply look in your eyes.
In anyone's eyes,
Cause no-one can hide,
It's because of the lies,
It's because of the lies,
It's because of the lies,
It's because of the lies...
That I can't meet your eyes.

The world isn't moving,
Tell me I'm dreaming,
When did it all fall down to this.
The world isn't moving,
Tell me it's spinning,
When did my lies bring us to this.

Because of this,
Because of this,
Because of this,
Because of this.

In Fair Verona (Where We Lay Our Scene)

Copied off LPU. Zomg, I actually FINISHED a song! It's a miracle! Ahahaa! Big thanks to GlassGhost for his support on this, gave me the confidence to actually put the "completed" tag on this. :)




Going for a slow, mournful but alternative thing here. A bit like Porcelain by Red Hot Chili Peppers/Still by Foo Fighters/Session by LP. Very Romeo and Juliet orientated. Hence the title... enjoy xxx

In Fair Verona (Where We Lay Our Scene)

Beautiful verb,
Treated softly by the world,
Well sweet angel,
I want and you deserve,
Every piece of this word.

It leaves with a kiss,
Blown gently by the wind.

Oh love, we are so foresaken.
Oh love, tell us you're mistaken.
Tell us love is just a word,
Just a loving gentle verb

It leaves with a kiss,
Blown gently by the wind.

All of your dreams,
They take away what love means,
Oh poor angel,
We desire but never get,
The word and it's distress.

It leaves with the wind,
Blown gently by your kiss.

Oh love, we are so foresaken.
Oh love, tell us you're mistaken.
Tell us love is just a word,
Just a loving gentle verb

It leaves with the wind,
Blown gently by your kiss.

Oh sweet love,
Oh angel coming from above,
Your tears they stain my dress,
Fills me with lust that will never rest.
Oh my love,
Oh my angel drenched in blood,
Your tears they stain my skin,
They boil the love the rests within.
It stays dormant,
It stays cold,
And releases your relinquished souls.

Oh love, we are so foresaken.
Oh love, tell us you're mistaken.
Tell us love is just a word,
Just a loving gentle verb

It leaves with a kiss,
Blown gently by the wind.
