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.

Juneau - Funeral for a Friend

I love it when you listen to lyrics and they just spell out a relationship you have with someone. This song does this for me and it's also amazing.
2 versions. Original and acoustic. I prefer the acoustic if I'm being honest but the original is great too. But my favourite FAFF songs are the acoustics (Juneau,History,Building,Charlie Don't Surf, etc.)
Figured I'd put the lyrics up for this.

Juneau by Funeral for a Friend

Tied to the testing of wills,
When my heart breaks and spills
Left to the sight of the sky,
In your arms I'm defined
In the minds of your enemies,
In the minds of your enemies.
And I'm stoned in the eyes of your foolishness.

If this is what I'm meant for,
I'm no longer interested,
Fall forward to even the score,
Just a thought to you.

Tied to the testing of wills,
When my heart breaks and spills,
Left to the sight of the sky,
In your arms I'm defined.
In the minds of your enemies,
In the minds of your enemies.
And I'm stoned in the eyes of your foolishness

And I'm nothing more than a line in your book,
Yet I'm nothing more than a line in your book,
Yet I'm nothing more than a line in your book,
Yet I'm nothing more than a line in your book,
In your book, in your book...

If this is what I'm meant for,
I'm no longer interested,
Fall forward to even the score,
Just a thought to you.

(Just a thought to you)
(Just a thought to you)

Yet I'm nothing more...
Yet I'm nothing more than a line in your book,
Yet I'm nothing more than a line in your book.

Unforgivable Thoughts (copied from LPUMB)

All of the below was copied from my thread in the Linkin Park Underground Message Boards.


"Inspired by The Kill by 30 Seconds to Mars (brilliant video for that BTW) I couldn't think of a title just looking at these lyrics because they don't nearly say enough about the subject but 'Unforgivable Thoughts' : it sorta sums up this subject for me. Its about attention seeking but that not might be very blatant but that's OK I wasn't going for some big dramatic 'fuck you' song.
Most of you have probably seen LP's 'Making of Minutes to Midnight'. At one point Mike describes how if he thought a song should have rapping on it; he sung. And vice versa. I'm doing a similar thing: if I think a song should be heavy; I'll do it acoustic and vice versa. Should be fun. It's going great so far. I really really recommend this, it clears your head a bit.
Long intro,sorry. I'll bugga off. Ennjoyy!


Unforgivable Thoughts

Are you closer to the start
Or the bottom of your heart
Give you a second to bleed
To take back what you heard
And you'll see (you'll see)
I won't say a word
Say a word
Say a word

No
You won't find pity here
You won't find any fear
I can't stop your pain
Can't stop your crave
And I can't stand your lies
I...

Can't you see that I wanted to care
But you only care for yourself
Take your pain and all of it's greed
Set it down and leave it to bleed
(Can't you see that I want it to bleed)
Can't you see can't you see,
I'm not done I'm not here I can't leave

No
You won't find pity here
You won't find any fear
I can't stop your pain
Can't stop your crave
And I can't stand your lies
I...

No
You won't find pity here
You won't find any fear
I can't stop your pain
Can't stop your crave
And I can't stand your lies
Lies
Lies
Lies

Find it in me
Everything you wanted to be
Spell it out (spell it out)
But we see you don't bleed
We see how your pain is your show
Your lights and your paint but your crowd
It's suddenly missing...

No
You won't find pity here
You won't find any fear
I can't stop your pain
Can't stop your crave
And I can't stand your lies
Lies...

You won't find your fear...
(I can't find the sun in the sky)
You won't find your fear...
(As long as you don't explain)
You won't find your fear."

Burning Alone Forever

Ok I am so damn proud of this. I have the entire song mapped out in my head. I'll get right on that but here are the lyrics. Not sure about the title it might change. Some other lines/words might change but I doubt it...I'm really happy with this.
Ennjoy x


Burning Alone Forever

This damn blood is running down my arms,
Staining everything,
Oh pain you couldn’t have chosen,
A less worthy mark,
I don’t deserve your passion,
Don’t deserve to make it last,
I can’t keep the life that’s killing me.

(Don't leave)
I can’t hold the truths you hold at me.
(Don’t plead)
I can’t stop the pain that’s stopping me.
So don’t leave me here alone.
Don’t keep alive this burning soul.

This damn love is so ruined for me,
Breaks my fragile heart,
Oh God you shouldn’t have chosen,
Shadowed over-cast,
I can’t keep its sanity,
Don’t deserve to make it last,
I can’t lift the curse that’s killing me.

(Don't leave)
I can’t hold the truths you hold at me.
(Don't plead)
I can’t stop the pain that’s stopping me,
So don’t leave me here alone.
Don’t keep alive this burning soul.
Ooh…
Don’t leave me here for show,
Don’t keep alive this burning soul.

(Don't leave)
I can’t hold the truths you hold at me.
(Don't plead)
I can’t stop the pain that’s stopping me,
So don’t leave me here alone.
Don’t keep alive this burning soul.

You took,
Whatever you could take,
And it’s not enough to make me fall.
I’m not standing up for your ego,
You always knew how to have it all.

Don’t leave me here alone.

This fragile heart’s,
A broken heart,
It can’t keep me here alone.

(Don’t leave)
I can’t hold the truths you hold at me.
(Don't plead)
I can’t stop the pain that’s stopping me,
So don’t leave me here alone.
Don’t keep alive this burning soul.
Say you can lie to my burning soul.




EDITED - 07/03/09
REASON - Title changed from 'Burning' to 'Burning Alone Forever' also got rid of 1 chorus,might get rid of some more and the chorus is shorter and less annoying :)
Not many changes,like I said before x

History - Funeral for a Friend

Pretty awesome song.
I know they might sound emo at first listen but these guys are really awesome and cool. I only just discovered this song. It's really emotional and they did this so well.
This is one of their best songs and its from their best album: 'Hours'
Welsh rock bands - hell yeah!


History - Funeral for a Friend

Dear friends of this academy
Ooh romeo is bleeding to death,
To see a friend bleed to death, what for
Some kind of metaphor that I cant see?
So I'll drink until I see it.

This sky will make me sick,
So I'll give up on you;
I'll give up on this.
This sky will make me sick,
So I'll give up on this;
I'll give up on you.

Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute,
And bleed this skyline dry,
Your history is mine.

So you want to hold me up and bring me down,
Yes, you want to hold me up and break me down,
I don't care for your sweet scent
Or the way you want me more than I want you,
And I don't care for your sweet scent
Or the way you want me more than I want you.

Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute,
And bleed this skyline dry,
Your history is mine.

Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute,
And bleed this skyline dry,
Your history is mine...

It's all mine...
It's all mine...
It's all mine...

Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute,
And bleed this skyline dry,
Your history is mine...

Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute,
And bleed this skyline dry,
Your history is mine...

Hands Held High - Linkin Park

God knows why this wasn't the first thing up when I made this blog...
Well, I'm putting it up now.
These lyrics show a couple of the reasons Mike Shinoda is my hero:
-His compassion
-His genius writing skills

This is Hands Held High by Linkin Park,off their most recent album 'Minutes to Midnight'


Hands Held High - Linkin Park

Turn my mic up louder I got to say something,
Light weights steppin' aside when we come in,
Feel it in your chest the syllables get pumping,
People on the street they panic and start running,
Words on loose leaf sheet complete coming,
I jump in my mind and summon the rhyme I'm dumping,
Healing the blind I promise to let the sun in,
Sick of the dark ways we march to the drumming,
Jump when they tell us that they wanna see jumping,
Fuck that I wanna see some fists pumping,
Risk something, take back what's yours,
Say something that you know they might attack you for,
Cause I'm sick of being treated like I have before,
Like it's stupid standing for what I'm standing for,
Like this war's really just a different brand of war,
Like it doesn't cater the rich and abandon poor,
Like they understand you in the back of the jet,
When you can't put gas in your tank,
These fuckers are laughing their way to the bank and cashing the cheque,
Asking you to have compassion and have some respect,
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way,
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay
And the rest of the world watching at the end of the day,
In their living room laughing like "what did he say?!"

[Chorus:]
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen.


In my living room watching but I am not laughing,
Cause when it gets tense I know what might happen:
World is cold the bold men take action,
Have to react or get blown into fractions.
Ten years old it's something to see,
Another kid my age drugged under a jeep,
Taken and bound and found later under a tree,
I wonder if he had thought the next one could be me,
Do you see, the soldiers they're out today,
That brush the dust from bullet proof vests away,
It's ironic;at times like this you pray
But a bomb blew the mosque up yesterday.
There's bombs in the buses, bikes, roads,
Inside your market, your shops, your clothes,
My dad he's got a lot of fear I know,
But enough pride inside not to let that show,
My brother had a book he would hold with pride:
A little red cover with a broken spinem
On the back, he hand-wrote a quote inside:
When the rich wage war it's the poor who die,
Meanwhile, the leader just talks away
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay,
And the rest of the world watching at the end of the day,
Both scared and angry like what did he say?!"


[Chorus x6]


With hands held high into the sky so blue,
As the ocean opens up to swallow you.
[x6]
