I Am Not AloneAll it takes is one kind word
To brighten up my day.
All it takes is one small smile
To make the pain go away.

When I fell, you helped me up.
When I cried, you held me close.
When I hurt, you kissed it away.
When I choked, you gave me breath.

All it takes is one little hug
And all my troubles cease.
All it takes is one stray laugh
And this fog in my mind decreases.

When I burned, you put me out.
When I cut, you helped me heal.
When I died, you brought me back.
When I left, you made me stay.

You refused to let me hurt.
You refused to let me drown.
You refused to let me go.
And you let me know,

I am not alone.

If Only Life was a Book.If only life was a book.

I'd remember everything,
Perfectly like a picture.

I would choose to skip over,
All the parts I didn't like.

I'd read over and over,
Again the parts that I loved,
Not wanting to put it down.

All that is, was, or will be,
Is all equally the truth,
Without a lie or deceit.

I wish that life was a book;
I'd go back to how it was,
Remember everything good,
Never have to face future.

I would lock myself inside,
My own perfect little world,
And I'd never want to leave,
Because it's the only thing,

That I want to be true.

I lost my innocence, that day.When I was younger,
there was a time where all of my friends
were boys.
Girls wanted to play mommy and ponies
I wanted to play tag and race cars
and so did the boys
so we did.

Not a big deal.

I was six when I went over to a friends house for the first time.
He was really neat--
He had a box full of race cars and a bubble machine
that made the biggest bubbles.

One day, as we were having snacks
(because snack time is serious business, no matter what age you are)
I decided I wanted another one.
It was a stick of string cheese, and I was six--
clearly I was a growing lady and I needed my dose of dairy.

So I walked up to his mother and said
"

Heart Has Been BrokenI watch you from a distance
Your pain filled expression as you are turned down
There is a feeling of pain left inside
But there is nothing left to hide

Your heart has been broken
It looks like it’s been torn open
And it ticks like a clock
You wish to see your feelings returned
But it’s just not to be

I miss the beauty in the air
Of the times where you start to sing
A melody of your love
It’s another one of those beautiful things
But now all I feel is the misery in the air
Where you were rejected

Your heart has been broken
It looks like it’s been torn open
And it ticks like a clock
You wish to see your feelings retur

Thank You For BreathingI’m that trickle down your neck last week when you got upset.
That friend you’ve never met;
That kid you teased for being a teachers pet.
That kid who stays quiet when you get on his nerves;
The one who never got picked first;
The best at being last; Never been late for class; never got noticed for staying on task.
Know that’s there’s something special about being different.
I can’t explain it; not sure if it’s a gift or curse. It’s
Something about it makes me want to pick up a pen and write verses.
I feel like maybe God entrusted this mission to us; something more than Church.
Something more tha

Foam OverI know her secret:
she has no bile
or sweat or blood.
She's just cloth draped over
soft cloth, it is what
the edges of my hands remember,
recanting dreamily to each other.

I have made her dirty with affection.
We both are waiting for sunshine
to foam over the hills.

If you lay down in the park long enough,
someone will pick you up. Even without hope,
someone will pick you up. Even without hope,
someone will not let you lie there and burn.

Reborn To A Dead EndCold and distant to the eyes of dismay
but the more I reach it, the never ending pain
a warm, holy force didn’t beg me to stay
it binds my soul with a demonic, prideful chain

Restoring the aching wound, the most human feature
the ability to be consumed and swallowed by woe
the non-predictable disease lies within this creature
slowly I’ll break, sorrowful at the throne of mercy I bow

The solitary pain of walking among a multitude
as marginalized fallen entities lustfully invites
beckoning to accept an isolated invitation of solitude
as the piercing silence my soul shapes and bites

Forever I shall sink in obscure eternal despair

The finish lineIt's a forbidden love
That I've always dreamt about
A thing that I think of
And I wish to scream it loud.

It's a dream that can't be true
And it's feeling like a pain
This is just because of you
And my heart remained chained.

I don't care if you'll hurt me too
Because I'm already in hell
I think I will make it through
And if not, you'll ring the bell.

You may be my only hope
To come back from this madness
Please, hand me the rope
Please, don't block my acces.

Just give me a sign
That you care at least
For me you are divine
Don't make my soul a feast.

Don't devour it so fast
Cause it's never coming back
Feeling the dead hand of the past
I

ForgottenIt's rainy inside my heart
Now that you've gone away
You've torn my soul apart
And my life became grey.

I love you more than life
Please come back to me,
I need you to survive
Or just set me free.

I'm just an empty corpse
Now that you walked away
I just want to forget
This is for what I pray.

Self MutilationYou’re crying
And the tears are starting to blur your vision
And you’re struggling to breathe over
The tightness in your throat
You reach blindly
For the one thing that could make it all better
Your razorblade
As you cry and cry
And shake and shudder
You slice away
At every visible inch of skin you have
You can’t see at all now
Over the tears running down your face
So you just cut
And cut
And cut
You’re not paying any attention them really
Just basking in the searing pain they cause
But you don’t realize
That as you’re cutting
You’re going deeper
And deeper
Your cuts are crisscrossing e

I WantI want to be able to scream,
I want to be able to talk,
But whenever I voice my opinions,
They’re left so deep in the dark.

I want to be able to cry,
I want to be able to smile,
But I only can in desperation,
So I’ll fake my emotions for a while.

I want to be able to stand,
I want to be able to laugh,
But whenever I manage to catch it,
It fades away from my grasp.

I want to be able to tell you,
But it’s harder than I first might have thought,
Because from my past experience,
I only became more distraught.

I want it to stop being complicated,
So for once, I can sit down and explain,
But for now I’ll just have to sti

I Hate What I've BecomeI hate the things I've done
I hate what I starting to become
But I wish that I could take back
All the things I did to you
Cause I've never felt so bad

I've never felt so bad
About anything at all
But now I want to be able to say
How much I hate myself
Because of what I've become

How many times will I apologize?
For everything that I've ever done
As I have never been a good person
But I have to say
I hate what I've become

This life is over
I can be such a monster when I want to be
But I can't stop feeling regrets
For everything I've done
So how many times will have to say

I'm sorry for everything I've done
I don't know wh

No More GamesHe told her to never be afraid,
To trust him always.
He turned the lights out and locked her away in the shadows,
She began to understand what was right and what was wrong.
He told her not to be scared,
That he was there forever and always.
She tried to hold still, and not to shudder.
He told her ‘let’s play a game’.

They took her to church the next day,
And she shared the hymnal with her mother.
‘You will go to hell if you do not believe’ the preacher roars,
Smashing his fist against the wood.
He breaks bread with raw determination and pours wine into a cup with sinful respect.
She closes her eyes

InfiniteDrowning
That’s how it always feels
Claws set on pulling me down
Darkness all around
I lose sight of the past
Hands grasp
Pulling me to my knees
Suffocating
I try to run
away from the gun
But I’m constantly going backwards
Lost
Nothing can help me
Nothing will change
The pain is new
But the scars are old
Red
Blood rolls down in trails
Limbs are frail
Cold
Always falling
But never finding the ground
Infinite

I'll Keep YouI’ll keep you
Like birds in the attic-
I’m in the background like
A congregation of shadows,
One of a million of the unseen
But hands out ready
In case you fall.

You’re what you are
And I like that,
Little star with little light
You could be blinding
If I could just make you want to be.

Taking me for what I am,
I cherish you for what you are
Because what you are is
Brilliant,
Incandescent,
There are too many words, yet
Not enough
To describe that light
That star
You are.

I’ll keep you,
You’re worth keeping,
And I’ll stay in the background
Ready and waiting
To catch you if you fall.

Past BeginningsShe used tell me a story of her past
It funny when I think of that
Cause it was something from her past
That took her away in the end

Past problems, caused her to relive the horrors of her life
Past problems, caused her to abandon all that she had made
Past beginnings, is what we would have made
Past beginnings, is where I wish I could now stand

I used to give her flowers and sweets
She used to love all of my treats
As I remember when she to smiled at me
I wish I could go back and relive the past

Past problems, caused her to relive the horrors of her life

Paranoid and InsaneI see people on their knees
Being driven by paranoia
Thinking that begging will save them
But it will only delay their deaths

You wonder what drives them
Off the road of sanity
But the answer's really simple
They are really weak minded fools
That will be killed in the end

I'm surrounded by the Paranoid and Insane
It's annoying how much they start to rant
However they will never stop
Cause they don't understand life anymore
And soon they will be killed again

Hunger and Anger does so much damage
Life is nothing more than a graveyard
That is filled with empty souls
Which don't understand what they live for

Your souls are never safe
After all

Off With Her HeadWhispers can be stronger than words sometimes
But I'm sure that you are going to see
That my blood and I am filled with anger
The one who's in charge is always angry
When someone speaks out of term
So don't give any more than that

Alice I hate to say it but I have my orders
Orders that I cannot disobey
No matter how much that I want to
So don't give me the pleas to spare your soul
Because the Queen of Hearts got upset by you
And now she wants someone to
Slice off your head

OFF WITH HER HEAD!
OFF WITH HER HEAD!

So that I can start to say

"Trick or Treat"
Kids all over the street
Are dressed up in costumes
Standing at your door hoping for a sweet
It's better than worrying about perfumes
You realize that it's Halloween
Where costumes are made for screams

I stand in front of your door
Hoping that there are times for those before
People smile, joke and laugh tonight
I hope that people are ready for a fright
So that we can get ready for night today
Where people go ahead and say

Kids all over the street
Are dressed up in costumes

Obedience is RequiredI can see that you are scared of me
I can tell that you want to get away
But that's the problem
With the situation you're in
Cause you will not be able to get away
And you will be stuck
With your nightmare until the end

Obedience is required
That is the obvious truth in our lives
Cause if we do not have obedience
Then all of our plans will fall apart
And I don't want to be lost at all
Cause I want to be able to keep you

I got told that you screamed in fear
When you got told what I wanted from you
But there is something that going wrong
Cause you will never get away from me at all
As I have a been your nightmare

Non-Existent SanityThey said that the doctors were wrong
So they locked me inside a cage
They wanted to keep an eye on me
So they made sure I was on a leash
They said they were my saviour
But I said that they were wrong

I said that I’m not mental
But they said I was wrong
My neighbour was tortured by these people
But is too scared to do anything about it
For these scientists are the monsters
That they claim us to be

They say that I am nearing insanity
But nothing can be proved
Without running loads of experiments
They plan to dissect me to pieces
So they can find a cure to my problems
Cause they think I have a non-existing sanity

How much longer will

There's No Forever

by ~bodders1991, Nov 17, 2012, 6:44:48 AM
Literature / Poetry / Emotional / Songs & Lyrics

You have been rejected so many times
But you keep getting back up
Because you think
There’s someone out there for you
I honestly don’t know why you try so hard
For it’s just going to make it that much worse

So why do you say love’s forever
Because as long as I am here
I will say that there’s no forever
So there’s no reason to get so excited
Because when you think that you
Have nothing to lose
You really have nothing to gain

I can only see the misery getting worse
But you refuse to let me help you
Because you think that my words are untrue
So all I can do is sit back and watch
While you continue to get more miserable
And I can see that you will regret it

So why do you say love’s forever
Because as long as I am here
I will say that there’s no forever
So there’s no reason to get so excited
Because when you think that you
Have nothing to lose
You really have nothing to gain

Your social barriers are fading
With every rejection you suffer
But you still refuse my help
Because you think that you know best
This isn’t helping out at all
For I can see you are slowly breaking

So why do you say love’s forever
Because as long as I am here
I will say that there’s no forever
So there’s no reason to get so excited
Because when you think that you
Have nothing to lose
You really have nothing to gain

You hide from the world now
I tried to warn you about the dangers
But you refused to listen
So I can only shake my head
Because now you have lost all hope
That you will ever find happiness

Some people are just delusional

~CRMdrummergirl Jan 31, 2013

me likey. and entirely agree with your comment. Do you have music written or just the lyrics?

~bodders1991 Feb 1, 2013

Just the lyrics, like with any other stuff that I seem to write these days.

~CRMdrummergirl Feb 1, 2013

ok, just wondering since I'm a drummer and I started thinking in beats lol

~bodders1991 Feb 1, 2013

I see... well what kind of beats are you seeing in this song?

~CRMdrummergirl Feb 1, 2013

the entire chorus and many of the lines in the verses can be done with 3 beats per line, so if it were to be set to music, i'd say 3/4 time. some instrumental space after the verses. if you were thinking of it as more pop-y a lot of basic high hat-snare-bass drum stuff, if you wanted to go darker, then a lot of low tom tom, and some bass drum rumble in the background

~bodders1991 Feb 2, 2013

Interesting... I will have to have a think about the ideas you've suggested.

~littlerecklessheart Nov 17, 2012

I like it, it would sound great on the radio with the right melody.

~bodders1991 Nov 17, 2012

I'm glad that you like it.

~littlerecklessheart Nov 19, 2012

so am I.
