"Your Words"

Budding Songwriter?
Exellent Poet?
Just someone who likes to write their thoughts?

Well here is the thread for anyone and everyone to write their words. May it be about love, life or death - a song, poem or just a few words.

Here is the thread for your thoughts.


I look forward to reading them,
MWA

We don't do what we want to do anymore,
We're scared you see,
Of what the consequences might be,
You look around and I, know what you'll see,

Dead man walking,
Living but not alive,
Dead man walking,
Is it enough to just survive?
Dead man walking,
Living but not alive,
Dead man walking,
When was the last time, That you felt alive?

Are we scared to be ourselves today,
Is it safe,
To show our true face,
In full view, of those we know, will hurt us,

Dead man walking,
Living but not alive,
Dead man walking,
Is it enough to just survive?
Dead man walking,
Living but not alive,
Dead man walking,
When was the last time, That you felt alive?

Do we have the courage, (So Much Courage)
To take the risk and live life to the full?
Do we have the courage, (So Much Courage)
To do something when our peers disapprove?

If we carry on this way, we're already dead,
We need to live our lives, Alive.

Dead man walking,
Living but not alive,
Dead man walking,
Is it enough to just survive?
Dead man walking,
Living but not alive,
Dead man walking,
When was the last time, That you felt alive? (THAT YOU FELT ALIVE!)

Have you ever, felt alive?
Will you ever, feel alive?

Live your life, ALIVE!
alive...

Makes me think of a battle with yourself... innner turmoil or something. Trying to find some direction...

Like it.

Why is it that you wait there?
In halt, regathering your fuel?
Stalemate with oneself, pondering to find the anwser?

With a blink of the eye you dissappear,
In the struggle I find you,
Staring in confusement yet in wonder.

Why is it that you wait there?
Is it that you're moving towards the light?
But, just a little faster then me?

I have a couple of ideas for songs... just need to write em properly now...

Uh huh, I can relate to that tottally as you may know.

The way exams set out your life is wrong.

Cheers, the first song kind of has a double meaning... There's the obvious surface meaning and a kind of deeper one... kind of the same idea for both, one was just more subtle than the other...

Anyway, 'Not Quite Alive' I just wrote I guess as a response to all the exams I'm doing, and feeling somewhat sick of school and planned out life.

Quite a emotional one that last one eh? heh.

See you've posted two since I've last been here and if you don't mind me saying I think I am enjoying them more with each one you post.

Out of those two you posted down there I prefered the first as it had a nice meaning. I know you're very good with your views and opinions and that just showed it. So, liked the meaning in that alot.

I also like the way you do your CAPS for shouting and you always seem to have them. It's your own style and I like it. Much like RBS's short, well constructed lines. I like the styles.

Keep them coming and as soon as I write them you'll see them.

Not Quite Alive


Ever feel like there is no way out?
Do you feel your life has, all been planned out?
From day one when you were born,
And it won't let you go until you die,
All the freedom that you thought you felt,
You just realised that it's, All a LIE!

How do you live with yourself,
How can I live with myself,
Knowing I never, tried to break free,
From this, prefab, LIFE!

I wish I could go chase, all of my dreams,
But I feel I'd be letting you down,
I wish I could do what I want for a change,
Without recieving your frown,
You gave me all I needed for life,
But now you need to LET ME LIVE!

How do you live with yourself,
How can I live with myself,
Knowing I never, tried to break free,
From this, prefab, LIFE!

I'M FALLING!
Into apathy,
This lifeless life feels worthless to ME,

And I know I need to try to break free,
But I;m scared you see,

What if I fail,
To make my own way?
I'll have to return,
To these lifeless days.

There seems to be a war all around,
The battle lines are drawn,
The soldiers are chosen,

Two cultures fight,
Two countries fight,
They're two halves, of the same entity,

Too full of pride to be brought down,
They're all in uniform,
And never admit defeat,

These factions must despise ech other,
For people,
Bonded by blood,
To kill one another,

Brother kill brother,
Family at war,
Don't wanna kill another,
Man Like Me,

BROTHER KILL BROTHER,
FAMILY AT WAR,
DON'T WANNA KILL ANOTHER,
HUMAN BEING!

Your cultures, they must hate each other,
But how does hurting someone else,
Prove You're Better Than Me?!?

I,
WON'T,
FIGHT,
FOR YOU!
