This isn't a Story Because it's Only Just Begun

This is being built over the next week. ADTR inspired at the moment. Just a working title.


Here's another fallen patient,
Caught up between her expectations,
Never thought it would be the way back,
Never thought it would be the way back home.

How about another dream,
Crashing through the reality,
Of everything she thought she'd be,
Or writing love with tragedies.
I want to take you home to place these lips,
Upon the wood of a broken pirate ship,
So we can rebuild something unforgettable.
It's something you don't know.

Falling apart;
Coming together again,
And all we know is that there can be no end,
We're just sitting in the sea by the side of our lives.
Drowning one at a time.

Disease

Beneath a beating sun.
They keep me cold and then the shadows rising
Always remind me that the worst is yet to come.
A vision subject to change and as I fall apart
I fail to watch the words in white ink erase themselves.
When the time comes I will be rid of this town,
But my only regret is that I never let you fall.

Fall

If you want me to take it
I'm falling and shaking
I'll never restore all the things that have let me down.
(What wasn't meant to be)
But they will follow me,
And I won't believe that I was ever meant to be
Alive but full of disease.

The worst isn't the blood
That falls down my skin,
And it isn't the dismissive words you hurled
Straight to my head now bold out in print.
The worst thing is the spiral, circle,
Vortex, cycle, that weaves my thoughts into hatred.
So pull the trigger on the firearm of your vanity,
And watch the bullet penetrate my skull.
So your self-absorbed actions and your hunger for attention
Will wash the river out of me and cover my skin all in bleach.
Don't go wasting your enemies,
You may have no friends left at all,
And remember that when you fall.

Fall

If you want me to take it
I'm falling and shaking
I'll never restore all the things that have let me down.
(What wasn't meant to be)
But they will follow me,
And I won't believe that I was ever meant to be
Alive but full of disease.

I'm falling down,
And out of this city,
But I'll be back with memories of you,
Which you will relive in all that you do.

And I just wanna know,
How it must feel,
To never be alone,
And always choosing sides,
To fit who sucks up to you the most.
Because we all know if you didn't you'd have to face your flaws

Flaws

If you want me to take it
I'm falling and shaking
I'll never restore all the things that have let me down.
(What wasn't meant to be)
But they will follow me,
And I won't believe that I was ever meant to be
Alive but full of disease.

And Down, Down I Fell

I can almost taste the wind
Whipping across my face,
As you stare away from me,
Your gaze locked out in space.
And you'd be gone from then on,
Without another word,
I think I'm falling down,
Within your darkened disregard.
And falling apart.

I found something in you,
That I didn't expect to see,
But it brought my soul to life,
I guess you didn't see it in me.
And now your eyes will fill with hate,
The damage crept into,
Whenever you see my face,
'Cause I wasn't enough for you.
When I fell for you.

I said I'd write you a letter,
Without any tears,
I said I won't fall apart,
Like I had done for years.
But you were with someone new
When I fell for you.

You can't expect for my heart to take
All this pain and then not break,
When I even hear your name,
But I guess I am to blame.
You can't understand the pain
With blood always running cold,
For you I'll cut within the vein,
And do just as I was told.
There's no more point to growing old.

I said I'd write you a letter,
Without any tears,
I said I won't fall apart,
Like I had done for years.
But you were with someone new
When I fell for you.

Throw away our picture frames,
Ignore the bed in which I lay.
Take seven months down from the wall,
And just wait for me to fade away.

With my blood all over your room,
You can paint across the stain,
Just turn your head away,
And pretend you didn't know my name.

I said I'd write you a letter,
Without any tears,
I said I won't fall apart,
Like I had done for years.
I guess there was nothing to do
When I fell for you.

God, Save Our Queen

When I was really, really bored.
I'm not unpatriotic or anarchist or anything
I was just bored.

God, Save Our Queen

God, save our gracious Queen,
Long live her sins and fires but whilst we dream,
Oh God save the Queen.
Send her angels with warnings notorious,
Coffins golden and glorious,
No longer to reign over us,
God, save the Queen.
Oh Lord God your anger arise,
Scatter our enemies with your weapons of choice,
And make them fall.
Damn them to Hell with their nuclear bombs and tricks,
Override their fractured politics,
Her black heart; on you our hopes we fix,
God, save the Queen.

Not in this vacant blackened land alone,
But be our vicious mercies known,
From wasteland to shore.
Lord, make the fallout nations see,
That men should let atoms be,
And form one union of prosperity,
Over every town and every street.
From every blazing, liberal foe,
From the sniper’s 60cm blow,
God, save the Queen.
He’ll shoot over the blackened heart she will extend,
For Britain’s sake you must defend,
Our mother’s lost heart and soul and friend,
God, save the Queen.

Our choicest nuclear Soviet gifts in store,
Her stolen heart would be pleased to pour,
Too long may she reign.
May she be defended by any law,
And ever make us fear and cause us,
To sing with fear and guilt and voice,
God, save the Queen.

Leaving the Lights Behind

Do you remember kicking the night sky into the flood lights
Out in the moonlight
We were the first day and the last nights
Just to take it all back and fall behind
But I, I thought I'd never see them right

So thank the Lord
That we're never coming back here again.
All the days we spent,
Wishing for the day we came alive,
Well I guess we got it right.

So here's to the day we met and to the day of our first kiss
On your blessed bed
I am without you and without this
But now I don't have a single regret
Just you, you and I can put it all right.

So thank the Lord
That we're never coming back here again.
All the days we spent,
Wishing for the day we came alive,
Well I guess we got it right.

Yeah you got me
Here on your first bet,
That I'd always be the one, in the end.
Then we fall down
Down onto your bed,
And all our talk is real tonight
Forever will commence.

So thank the Lord
That we're never coming back here again.
All the days we spent,
Wishing for the day we came alive,
Well I guess we got it right.

Destroy The Clocks

Inspired by new Linkin Park album 'A Thousand Suns' Post-apocalyptic-it's all our fault-philosophical crap ;)
Enjoy x

Destroy The Clocks

I see the buildings fall
The fires burning out.
The dust it settles down,
It buries wounds of what is found
And soldiers laid to rest.
But in the cold and rust,
The lack of time,
The endless space and what is mine;
The calm it seems to carry a final prayer.
Because where you will find the deepest snow,
The brightest stars
From here I know,
They're all alive in beauty and decay.

Dissemble hands,
Melt the cogs,
Look to the sky,
And search for God.

Between the empty lands
I feel the thunder storms.
The moon it glides above,
In all its blissful ignorance
That shows it's so much more.
But on the corpse of Earth,
That's cold and grey
That sings the wars of fear kept astray;
The levees break so that we discover truths.
Because where you will find the deepest snow,
The brightest stars
From here I know,
They're all alive in beauty and decay.

Dissemble hands,
Melt the cogs,
Look to the sky,
And search for God.

Until we drop, woah.
The atoms will explode.
And God will leave us no
Time to destroy
The clocks
The fear,
And leave us thinking:

Here we are, woah
The atoms will explode.

And dissemble hands,
Melt the cogs,
Look to the sky,
And search for God.

Away

Um. Jimmy Eat World inspired. For someone amazing :) Enjoy x

Away

I'm stood out at the corner of your road
And you don't know that I'm here.
I can see your house out the corner of my eye,
And I can tell you're home.
No I can't see movement and I can't see your bedroom light,
But I know you're close because I know
And because the stars have never looked so bright.

They tell me
They begged me
And I know that I shouldn't be here.
But they don't know
And they can't see
My heart beating as you walk to me.
They could never see.

And it's cold underneath this clocktower,
But it's good just to be here.
I can see your eyes darting back and forth,
Between my lips and my eyes.
No I can't breath right and I can't let go,
'Cause I know you're close because I know,
And because the stars are all on show.

They tell me
They begged me
And I know that I shouldn't be here.
But they don't know
And they can't see,
My heart beating as you walk to me.
They could never see.

When the sun comes up don't forget where I am
And I'm always where you think I'll be,
'Cause I'm not done waiting.
Keep your lies and I
I will remain
Unable to tear myself away.

A Year In the Life Of...

Very basic. Listening to a lot of acoustic stuff from Three Days Grace, Finch and Taking Back Sunday. Enjoy x

A Year In the Life Of...

It used to take me months,
In fact it's been one year to date,
Since you turned my life around,
And put the ending right in front.

I can't stop the pain from dying away,
I can't blame the memories for wanting to stay.
And I still don't remember how I got to this place,
But I know I'm not leaving without

You keep my heart beating,
Even when there's no point to breathe.
And you keep my head spinning,
But I know I can still see.

So sorry for everyone getting in the way,
And forgive me for assuming you wanted to stay.
And I still don't remember thinking it through,
I still can't comprehend a life without

You keep my heart beating,
Even when there's no point to breathe.
And you keep my head spinning,
But I know I can still

See the sky above your eyes,
Waiting for me to drown behind
Constant nightmares coming my way,
But they're never enough to stop me to say

You keep my heart beating,
Even when there's no point to breathe.
And you keep my head spinning,
But I know I can still see.

I still don't remember thinking it through,
And I still can't comprehend a life without you

Souled

I want to come back to this...inspired by 'Move On' by Fort Minor and The Divine Comedy by Dante. enjoy xx (oh, note that "blessed" is pronounced [bless-ed] not [blessd]) and forgive the awful pun in the title, i'll rethink it...

Souled

Thank you for greeting the sinned and blessed at the door,
Passing judgement and thieving and begging them for more.
Well we don't need your valid opinions valued here,
So if you'd kindly step aside and the devil shall appear.

Place you on a pedestal that's looming way up high,
So you can sneer and raise your chin at us peasants passing by.
And as your ego grows so do the spikes above your head,
Accept the blessed and forgive the others' sins,
And soon the growing pedestal will make the blessed dead.

Way way down, beneath the last circle of hell,
A place is reserved and I know that it will fit you well.
Don't preach to me your false ideals or parade around your gold,
My soul is still in tact but yours is going gone sold.

Another rather unrelated event has appeared today,
The devil's here to tell you that your pretty head can stay.
But you have to get off your pedestal now, your fate will soon be near,
So if you'd kindly join us down below and the devil shall appear.

Way way down, beneath the last circle of hell,
A place is reserved and I know that it will fit you well.
Don't preach to me your false ideals or parade around your gold,
My soul is still in tact but yours is going gone sold.

I Dare

I had an idea, then lost it. Bear with me it may come back. Here's an intro:

I Dare (Intro)

Non-stop this rhythm is right here,
No locks this figure just don't care,
Go bang-bang, honey this game ain't fair,
No messing now; this game is called I Dare.

Your Love

Just...shutup.

Your Love

They said,
Things get better in time.
They said,
Everything will be alright.
You said,
Despite the things that tore us apart,
Whatever's true is in my heart.
And I'm so tired of wishing away,
Feelings that were there the other day,
And I can never make you feel,
Like you did.
Like I do.
Like I always will.

Your love was my purpose,
Purpose to take breath.
When it went it left pain,
And my path clear to death.

I made my mistakes,
That are too large to ignore.
They say life moves on,
But I'm sure there's no more.
I already had life,
But I blew it away,
Now there's no point in living today.
And I can never make you feel,
Like you did.
Like I do.
Like I always will.

Your love was my purpose,
Purpose to take breath.
When it went it left pain,
And my path clear to death.

And I can never make you feel,
Like you did.
Like I do.
Like I always will.

We Are Dead

Say Anything-inspired. Not much to say, it all fit together nicely.


We Are Dead

With a vast amount of human understanding,
Beliefs in science and religion do not divide,
Instead they leak and suffer and bleed...
But we are dead,
To the world that left us dying.
We are slaves,
To a man with no understanding.
We can flee,
But then he'd know that we're running.
And he'd creep,
Across every known desert,
Until the man that's sat above,
Feigns blindness and leaves us standing.

Then they'll follow us back home,
They'll knock on our front doors.
They'll paint us red,
Knock off our heads,
And quietly leave us dying.
And if we tied them to their throne,
They'll make us mop their floors.
We'd paint through led,
Get high instead,
And leave his majesty sighing.

We are dead,
To the world that left us dying.
We are slaves,
To a man with no understanding.
We can flee,
But then he'd know that we're running.
And then that man that's sat above,
Feigns blindness and leaves us standing.

Then I'll take a stranger's hand,
We'll shoot the snipers down.
Take the ammo,
Kiss while we go,
And we'll proudly leave them dying.
And if all goes as we planned,
The war won't make us frown.
It goes to show,
War is our foe,
Unless everyone is lying.

We are dead,
To the world that left us dying.
We are slaves,
To a man with no understanding.
We can flee,
But then he'd know that we're running.
And then that man that's sat above,
Feigns blindness and leaves us standing.

Woah

Changing (The Stairs Song)

UUURGH. I'm just trying to make a point. THINGS CHANGE. Things happen and people change. And it sucks like hell but it happens...you just have to move on and hope that somewhere ahead things change for the better. At times you might feel trapped and unable to move on but things change. They do. Be careful.
Mix of pop-rock and hard-rock. Like mixing Paramore ('All I Wanted') and Fightstar ('We Apologize for Nothing').


Changing (The Stairs Song)

There at the edge of the room,
I see your face, crying over me.
But here where I'm standing now,
Not in one place, you're confused like me.
I can't reset the things we said,
I can't perform repairs.
I know you're waiting up ahead,
But I can't find the stairs.

This house keeps changing,
Parts arranging,
Forcing us apart.
I've paid the prices,
Restored from crisis,
Changing through my heart.

Somewhere there is a cupboard,
Where we've pushed things, hidden them from sight.
But where we couldn't find the space,
They're everywhere, causing us to fight.
I can't reset the things I said,
I can't perform repairs.
I know you're waiting up ahead,
But I can't find the stairs.

This house keeps changing,
Parts arranging,
Forcing us apart.
I've paid the prices,
Restored from crisis,
Changing through my heart.

Change to pass the time,
But it still crawls past.
I guess change is not a crime,
But a murder's been forecast.

And I can't change the things we said,
I can't perform repairs.
I hear you waiting up ahead,
But there aren't any stairs.

Your heart keeps changing,
Parts arranging,
Forcing us apart.
I've paid your prices,
Lived through the crisis,
Changing through my heart.
I've paid the prices,
Restored from crisis,
Changing through my heart.

Believe In You

Non-conformist punk-pop-rock. Inspirations include 'Admit It!!!', 'Signal the Rifleman' and 'Woe' by Say Anything. Enjoy.

Believe In You

You speak clearly of me,
And all that you want,
You pay pity to me,
'Cause that's all you've got.
And I won't sit down to take this standing up,
So you should know,
I'm not here to give it up, so

You take them all away,
To redefine them,
You lured freedom away,
'Cause you're pissed again.
And I won't sit down to take this standing up,
So you should know,
I'm not here to give it up, so

We won't believe in you,
We won't believe in you.
We won't believe in self-destruction and,
Keeping a lock on life's front door and,
We won't take this standing up and,
We won't believe in you.

So you're loveless again,
Not so subtly,
And you're lonely again,
'Cause you're so lovely.
And I won't sit down to take this standing up,
You should know,
I'm not here to give it up, whoa

We won't believe in you,
We won't believe in you.
We won't believe in self-destruction and,
Keeping a lock on life's front door and,
We won't take this standing up and,
We won't believe in you.

We won't believe in you.
(We won't believe)
So take down your cameras
(We won't believe)
Take down your thousands of mirrors
(And we won't believe)
And we won't believe what you've done,
But don't leave it like this,
Because we won't take this,
We won't take this standing up, no.

We won't believe in you,
We won't believe in you.
We won't believe in self-destruction and,
Keeping a lock on life's front door and,
We won't take this standing up 'cause,
We won't believe in you.

Condemn Me

My attempt at stoner metal ^_^. I've been listening to a lot of Deftones, and increasing amounts of System of a Down (although 'increasing amounts' means a couple of songs, ha) But yeah, just been in love with Deftones. I don't know where these lyrics came from...but they just came out. Not very likely that me or my band will be doing a stoner metal song...so may come back to this and make it less stoner-like. Enjoy x

Condemn Me

So you...
You can damn me for all the things,
All the things I have not done.
And all the songs...
All the songs we have not sung.
'Cause this is what you want,
This is what you...want.

Before you go,
Take a look,
Condemn.
And before you leave,
Heaven shook,
Again.

So if I leave you...
If I leave you for someone,
Someone more awake.
Then you will know...
You will know I'm tired of this.
'Cause this is what you want,
Am I what you...want.

Before you go,
Take a look,
Condemn.
And before you leave,
Heaven shook,
Again.

You stay still now dear...
It's all in the gun, I swear.
Russian roulette, I don't care.
Your hypocrisy...
It's too much to bear.
It's too much...

Before you go,
Take a look,
Condemn me.
Condemn me.
Before you leave,
As it took.
Heaven...shook...
Again.

Let Down by Dead by Sunrise

Self explanatory to be honest...
Chester Bennington's solo project with members of Julien-K/Orgy
Off of the amazing album 'Out of Ashes'
Makes me sad

Let Down

And the tears fall like rain, down my face again,
Oh the words you wouldn't say,
And the games you played with my unfoolish heart,
Oh I should have known this from the start.

Oh the winter and spring,
Going hand in hand just like my love and pain,
How the thought of you cuts deep within the vein,
Oh this brand new skin stretched across scarred terrain.

I don't wanna be let down,
I don't wanna live my life again,
Don't wanna be lead down the same old road.
Said I don't wanna be let down,
I don't wanna live my lies again,
Don't wanna be lead down the same old road.

All those years down the drain,
Love was not enough when you want everything,
What I gave to you and now the end will start,
Oh I should have listened to my heart...

Cause I don't wanna be let down,
I don't want to live my life again,
Don't want to be lead down the same old road.
I don't wanna be let down,
I don't wanna live my lies again,
Don't wanna be lead down the same old road.

I don't wanna be let down,
I don't want to live my life again,
Don't want to be lead down the same old road.
I don't wanna be let down,
I don't wanna live my lies again,
Don't wanna be lead down the same old road.

An Art of Theft

Oh wow. When I started this I fully intended it to be about being in love (happily) and hope and emotions. I'm...not quite sure what happened...Oh well. Still stuff I'm feeling, that clashes with the hope ^_^ very simple. Can be done acoustic or as a harder rock song...or compromises of both. Little cheesy. Some inspirations include 'The Only Exception' by Paramore and 'Fire' + 'Into You' by Dead by Sunrise. I may or may not have stolen the title of Ben "Yahtzee" Crosshaw's 'Art of Theft' game, but I like it :D Enjoy xx

An Art of Theft

You stole my heart, an art of theft,
You can't take it back.
But you were gone before you left,
You already knew that.

(Approaching with fear)
(You were so...distant)

The sky was all tired,
And I was so blessed,
And that was the day, the day that you left.
Hearing your voice,
I wouldn't have guessed,
It would be the day, the day that you left.

You keep my heart, a gift at best,
I can't have it back.
But you weren't hurt; your heart not stressed,
You already knew that.

(Approaching with fear)
(You were so...distant)

The sky was all tired,
And I was so blessed,
And that was the day, the day that you left.
Hearing your voice,
I wouldn't have guessed,
It would be the day, the day that you left.

Did you believe in me,
Just to believe in you?
And did you just hurt me,
Just to relinquish you?
(My heart, my heart)
I wasn't done with you,
(My heart, my heart,)
(My heart, my heart,)
(My heart, my heart,)
(My heart, my heart,)
(My heart, my heart,)
(My heart, my heart...)
Well it wasn't done with you...

I'm hearing your voice,
It came back again,
And that was the day, the day that you left.
The day that you left.

The sky was all tired,
And I was so blessed,
And that was the day, the day that you left.
Hearing your voice,
I wouldn't have guessed,
It would be the day, the day that you left.

The Only Exception - Paramore

It's fairly scary how much I feel I identify with these lyrics. Maybe I don't at all, but that's the sign of a true musician/lyricist. Hayley did well no?
Off Paramore's new album 'Brand New Eyes'. Absolutely beautiful.

The Only Exception

When I was younger I saw my daddy cry,
And curse at the wind.
He broke his own heart and I watched, as he tried to reassemble it.
And my mama swore,
That she would never let herself forget.
And that was the day that I promised,
I'd never sing of love, if it does not exist

But darling you are the only exception,
But you are the only exception,
But you are the only exception,
But you are the only exception.

Well maybe I know somewhere, deep in my soul,
That love never lasts,
And we've got to find other ways,
To make it alone,
Or keep a straight face.
And I've always lived like this,
Keeping a comfortable... distance,
And up until now I had sworn to myself,
That I'm content, with loneliness.
Because none of it was ever worth the risk.

Well you are the only exception,
Well you are the only exception,
Well you are the only exception,
Well you are the only exception.

I've got a tight grip on reality but I can't,
Let go of what's in front of me here.
I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up,
Leave me of some kind of proof it's not a dream, ooh...

You are the only exception,
You are the only exception,
You are the only exception,
You are the only exception,
You are the only exception,
You are the only exception,
You are the only exception,
You are the only exception,
And I'm on my way to believing.

Oh and I'm on my way to believing.

Breathe (Copied from LPUMB)

Actually wrote it on Word, which is weird for me. Posted it on LPUMB immediately :) then came here:


I don't know xD different. Let me know what you think :) Inspired by Juneau (Acoustic) by Funeral for a Friend. I love that song. Enjoyyy x

Breathe

Well it’s a sorry sight,
I’m sorry for your pain,
But broken glasses don’t heal wounds,
I’m sure you’re sorry all the same.
For the love of God,
Or the love of something,
Something that will show me love,
And not create havoc.

Just sit still, breathe slowly,
Just lie here, die with me,
Just sit still, breathe slowly.

And just so you know,
I’m ready for the pain,
But I’m never going to run,
I’m sure I’m ready all the same.
Somebody help me,
Or help somebody else,
Somebody who deserves help,
And won’t create havoc.

Just sit still, breathe slowly,
Just lie here, die with me,
Well just sit still, breathe slowly,
Breathe slowly.
And just lie here, and die with me.
Just sit still and breathe below me.

Breathe until we die...
Slowly as you lie awake in agony,
Just sit still, breathe.
Just...breathe.

Well it’s a sorry sight,
I’m sorry for my pain,
But broken glasses don’t heal wounds,
I’m sure I’m broken all the same.
For the love of God,
Or the love of anything,
Anything that will show me love,
Only creates havoc.

As we rest.
As we rest.

Just Another Song

Something I've been working on for a while. Did it so fast. The original title was "Just Another Love Song" but "Just Another Song" fits better :) Um...I was torn how to end it so it goes on for a while...I couldn't make my mind up between a fade out or a big stop. OK...inspired BY...'Sunday Bloody Sunday' by Paramore and 'Palahniuk's Laughter' by Fightstar. Listen to both songs and be confused :P I blended both styles. Enjoy x

Just Another Song

Why do I feel afraid.
I'll keep on changing minds but it'll always be the same.
I never knew about the fires,
About the highs,
Won't you please just let me be,
And stop this messing with my heart.
And you have to tell me if I have this all wrong,
Because this could end up as just another stupid song.

I don't feel like,
The sun has made it's exit yet.
I don't feel right,
And everything is out of control,
Just another broken soul,
Some things just don't belong,
I don't want this just another song.
(It could be forever, we could change the world)

We all need a hero.
I'll sacrifice this state of mind to save my loan.
I never knew about the fires,
About the highs,
It's always the lows,
That keep messing with our hearts.
Don't feel like you can't tell me if I'm wrong,
I just don't want this to end up...
Because this could end up just another stupid song

I don't feel like,
The sun has made it's exit yet.
I don't feel right,
And everything is out of control,
Just another broken soul,
Some things just don't belong,
I don't want this just another song.
(It could be forever, we could change the world)
(If we would stay together, we could keep the fold)

Separations begin with letters of your name,
Riddles get me nowhere all the same.
I could find...
I could lie...
I could find...
And I could lie...
I.

I don't feel like,
The sun has made it's exit yet.
I don't feel right,
And everything is out of control,
Just another broken soul,
Some things just don't belong,
I don't want this just another,
You'll never be alone again,
You'll never think about back then,
It won't feel right...
It's what you like...
The sun hasn't made the exit yet,
I don't feel right...
Just another stupid song.

I don't feel like,
The sun has made it's exit yet.
I don't feel right,
And everything is out of control,
Just another broken soul,
Some things just don't belong,
I don't want this just another song...

I think it could be forever, we could change the world together,
We cannot deny the pain we feel,
You got it wrong,
You got it wrong,
You got it wrong...
It's just another song.
