this is my second peice and i feel the better of the two but please let me know!
Through the cracks of my skin, running off my fingertips
The colour of wine, if you want to live, take a sip
I drew a star with this morbidly black ink
And into the cells, let the poison sink
Roll over bones as sharp as a knifes edge
Brush past my hips, I will smile and pretend
You can't hide your eyes, they are such a giveaway
Yes I'm scared as hell and its always been this way
So I will clean myself once again
Go over sins, with different reasons
Is this all I'm meant to do
Sit and regret with someone new
So I change my appearance once again
Start a trend and make a bad friend
Is this all I'm supposed to do
Lose myself but learn something new
Playing catch up with the world coz its running ahead of me
When I think I've found my feet it sweeps me from underneath
I hear the same words, repeat them over and over again
And after a while, you'd think I'd listen
I don't need all this pain for something else to write
I might not know what to say but that suits me just fine
So when I'm stuttering and I seem lost for words
Why can't you just give me a smile?
So I will clean myself once again
Go over sins, with different reasons
Is this all I'm meant to do
Sit and regret with someone new
So I change my appearance once again
Start a trend and make a bad friend
Is this all I'm supposed to do
Lose myself but learn something new
Everyone else moves forward
Its only me that gets left behind
I don't want to keep learning my lessons
I just want to be right this time
Will you let me be right this time?
hey boy:)
glad you picked one of my titles!
really love the greatest part of your song. especially:
I drew a star with this morbidly black ink
And into the cells, let the poison sink
When I think I've found my feet it sweeps me from underneath
I might not know what to say but that suits me just fine
these lines are amazing. I wasn't too sure about the chorus first, but now I think it's like these things that depend on the music you set them to. the music could make it shine.
really like the sentiment.
great job&thanks
cheers,

Hey guitargeek,
this is really good. The chorus for me is very powerful, picking yourself up and starting again still not knowing who you really are, and being prepared to put on another face to see if it fits. To be honest I think the first verse belongs to a different song, I dont think it fits that theme.
This theme:
Lose myself but learn something new
Overall this is great well done :D
pbee
The first verse deals with the physical aspect of the song....it stemmed from when i cut myself by accident and i saw the blood over my skin and it inspired me for some reason..it was like seeing the inseide of yourself on the outside.
it was like seeing the inseide of yourself on the outside.Fair enough, but I think that deserves to be a song in it's own right, that's a pretty cool concept 8) . I think there are two very good songs in making here. :D
thank you! yeah i think i may be able to use that again...thanks for your comments
Probably one of the best set of lyrics I have ever seen on this website.
Maybe to long in parts to actually work within its own boundaries, but as a read, its very good indeed.
