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.

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.

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...

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.

S.O.S

No it doesn't stand for Save Our Souls. It stands for Sex Over Sanity (according to my friend Addy) Uh, wrote this while RyuuAi Motel was still together. I wrote the first version,Addy(guitarist)messed around with it,threw it away,wrote 2 more before getting it right. Or as right as possible.
Not gonna do anything with this seeing as R.A.M broke up, thought I'd put it up anyway, enjoy.


Sex Over Sanity

The thought of kissing you feels so wrong,
So why does this feel so right?
You’re my personal enemy,
The love of my life…
Stop walking next to me.
Stop telling me how you feel.
Stop me falling deeper in love,
Tell me my sanity isn’t real.

You said you’d silence me,
I promised I’d forget all the rest,
When you challenge my sanity,
I just choose the sex.
Sex over sanity,
It’s harder now to breathe,
Your blood is filling my mind,
I can’t stand to leave.

You’re like a drug and you’ve got me hooked,
I should know better by now,
But I still can’t stop kissing you,
It’ll work somehow…
Come and sit next to me.
Come and show me how you feel.
It’s too late I’ve fallen in love,
This time my sanity is unreal.

You said you’d silence me,
I promised I’d forget all the rest,
When you challenge my sanity,
I just choose the sex.
Sex over sanity,
It’s harder now to breathe,
Your blood is filling my mind,
I can’t stand to leave.

You should leave me be,
You should be scared.
I shouldn’t have broken the rules,
I shouldn’t have cared.
We should run and get away,
We should take our chance.
I should leave you human,
I should make this kiss our last.

You said you’d silence me,
I promised I’d forget all the rest,
When you challenge my sanity,
I just choose the sex.
Sex over sanity,
It’s harder now to breathe,
Your blood is filling my mind,
I can’t stand to leave.

What I am…
It’s not what you need.
But your blood…
Makes it hard to leave.
This time more will be less,
And this time it’s SOS

You said you’d silence me,
I promised I’d forget all the rest,
When you challenge my sanity,
I just choose the sex.
Sex over sanity,
It’s harder now to breathe,
Your blood is filling my mind,
I can’t stand to leave.
Can’t stand to leave this sex over sanity.

If It's True

Literally wrote this in 5 minutes. I'll come back to it, but I needed to get something done this weekend I feel very useless. Oh yeah, I'm on my brother's computer until Monday afternoon when he gets back from Spain and so I have access to Guitar Pro 5. I wrote a nice little guitar piece that fits with this OK.
Romeo and Juliet inspired x

If It's True

Are you done,
Are you finishing.
I'm tired of looking in your eyes,
And seeing nothing but contempt,
I'm sick and tired,
Are you done, are you finishing.

If someone you know can't love you back,
You're stuck wishing for something you can't have,
And I'm done.
I'm so tired of you.
(If it's true)

You are the heart of heartless dreams,
You are the smile in final weeks,
You are the sun, you are the sky,
You're in no heart,
But you're alone in mine.

If someone you know can't love you back,
You're stuck wishing for something you can't have,
And I'm done.
I'm so tired of you.
(If it's true)

Are you real,
Or am I just insane.
Is this choice,
Or am I tempting fate.
I should have left you, should have killed you,
But my heart is dying with your pain,
And I'm in love it's too late.
This time I'll hurt myself and not you.

If someone you know can't love you back,
You're stuck wishing for something you can't have,
And I'm done.
I'm so tired of you.
(If it's true)

Cause it's true
It's true
It's true
It's true
I'm not your heart,
I'm not your pain,
And I'm sick and I'm tired...
And I don't want to wait.

If someone you know can't love you back,
You're stuck wishing for something you can't have,
And I'm done.
I'm so tired of you,
If it's true,
I'll let go of you.
If it's true.

Fall to Pieces

...I'm cold *can't think of anything to say* ...I dunno,its pretty random and nothing to get excited about and I probably won't work on it stylistically unless I get a brain wave. Still, I needed to try this composition style out (: Enjoy



Fall to Pieces

You're always dying,
Can't you fight away all your tears,
Standing beside me,
Won't you wash away all my fears,
And I can see you slowly breaking,
Falling to pieces.

So everything goes again how it should do,
Everyone feels the need just to be you,
I can't help feeling envy for you.
I shouldn't have to.

This is the way it will be,
Standing with you in the rain,
Breathing so softly,
Taking in all of my pain,
So they can watch us slowly breaking,
Breaking our secrets.

So everything goes again how it should do,
Everyone feels the need just to be you,
I can't help feeling envy for you.
I shouldn't have to.

Don't be afraid,
I'll play your way,
Keeping me close won't heal your pain,
Just break a leg,
And take it all,
I'll give you my blessing and then I'll fall.

So everything goes again how it should do,
Everyone feels the need just to be you,
I can't help feeling envy for you.
I shouldn't have to.

I'll fall to pieces,
Can't you see this,
I won't let you fade away,
Make it up someday

So everything goes again how it should do,
Everyone feels the need just to be you,
I can't help feeling envy for you.
I shouldn't have to.

I shouldn't need to,
Still I love you,
And all of your secrets,
They'll fall to pieces.
