Song lyrics! (No title yet for this one)

So it's that time again! The time where I post song lyrics and ask you for your opinions. I got the okay from my band manager (Sorine) that they don't suck too badly, so hopefully you will approve. :) I haven't gotten a title yet for this one, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also, in other news, I'll hopefully be working with my friend Braden this week to get some guitar accompaniments started for a lot of the songs I've been working on. I'm aiming to get them all pretty and record them and get a Myspace and such set up for myself sometime in the very near future. Hopefully this will all turn out well.

You and me
It was like the sun
Had met the moon
I knew that I
Would fall in love real soon
I just gave you my heart

But you
You never felt that way
But I couldn't tell
Cuz you're a good actor
You played that part so well
You really had me going

Now I just breathe
And try to clear my head
I'm just attempting to forget you

How could you not remember
That day we spent in November
When you held my hand
While we talked in your car
You said I was beautiful
Why would you waste your time, love?
I'm not really that appealing
It doesn't make sense
I'd ask you to explain
But I don't deserve that

Oh baby I
I poured my heart out
I sang you pretty words
I could scream and scream
But I'll never be heard
You made sure of that

Was I crazy
To think you meant
The things you said
I'm sorry that the wasted time's
What you regret
The time you spent with me

Now I just breathe
And try to clear my head
I'm just attempting to forget you

How could you not remember
That day we spent in November
When you held my hand
While we talked in your car
You said I was beautiful
Why would you waste your time, love?
I'm not really that appealing
It doesn't make sense
I'd ask you to explain
But I don't deserve that

Who gave you the right
To take away all of my sad songs
And who gave you the right
To say that we could not be friends
Who gave you the right
To walk away from this clean-handed
And who gave you the right
To dictate how this thing ends?
(repeat)

I guess that's what I get for trusting you


..... and that's the end! Let me know what you think! :D Hopefully I'll actually post another blog about something exciting soon. But my life isn't really the epitome of excitement, so we'll see how that goes. I love you blog readers, have fun! :D

Jonathan's Song

Okay, so awhile ago, my friend Jonathan and I were downtown and he said something to me along the lines of "Remember those colorful buildings we saw? I want to live somewhere like that, but all of the buildings now are just industrial and gray. Ew." I jokingly told him I was going to use that in a song and call it "Jonathan's Song", but the more I thought about it, the more I liked the idea. So, it's not really about my friend Jonathan, I just stole his words. It's more just a representation of those people who haven't lost their innocence and passion and a sense of beauty. Ha ha sorry that I'm trying to sound deep, but hopefully you'll like it. I'm also kind of interested in guitar with this song, so again, if you want to help me with that, I would be eternally grateful. :)


Jonathan's Song

I once met a boy
He was so unconcerned with the world
All he did was dream
He wanted to touch everything beautiful
With his paintbrush and his soul
He didn't say words
He spoke in poetry
He touched my heart

But it's all for nothing
Nothing
Nothing
It's for nothing at all

And he told me
I want to live in a world full of color
But now all the buildings are industrial and grey
There's smokestacks
And chimneys
And barbed wire fences
Right where all the flowers used to be

He said
People
They've lost the taste for melody
They just wanna scream
They want those hardcore dance beats
Complete with their voices touched with auto-tune
They've lost their words
They've lost their poetry
They've lost their heart

It all means nothing
Nothing
Nothing
It means nothing at all

And he told me
I want to live in a world full of color
But now all the buildings are industrial and grey
There's smokestacks
And chimneys
And barbed wire fences
Right where all the flowers used to be

Oh
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back to the time
When artists made art
And lovers made love

Oh
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back to the songs
That revive the old
And inspire the young

And we're screaming
I want to live in a world full of color
But now all the buildings are industrial and grey
There's smokestacks
And chimneys
And barbed wire fences
Right where all the flowers used to be

Inspire me
Ohh

To Write Love on Her Arms

So this is kind of a really personal song... and I don't know exactly how I feel about posting it. It's different, but I really like it. I'm in the process of writing an epic piano part to accompany it at the moment. I just really felt the title was fitting, but I might end up changing it... I probably will.

To Write Love on Her Arms


She's all alone, it's after midnight
Those familiar thoughts come to pay their dues
She's fought them off so many times
But she's tired tonight
She welcomes them with open arms
And says "Hello" to the little white bottle
The little bottle could solve all her problems
She could end it tonight
So she pops a few and says goodbye

Not the white sheets

Not the white pills

Doctor, let me out of this hell

Cuz I'm trying

And I'm fighting

This monster I've created inside myself

Therapy sessions and more medication
The doctors say that she's growing up
Unknown hands encourage with firm pats on the back
But underneath the charts and journals
Her old demons still make their home
Blood-stained wrists and tear-streaked cheeks
She's given up hope
She's falling off of a slippery slope


Not the white sheets
Not the white pills
Doctor, let me out of this hell
Cuz I'm trying
And I'm fighting
This monster I've created inside myself


Let me go
Let me go


Oh you hurt me
You break my heart
When you bleed
You cut me open
And when you cry
It's my tears that fall down


Not the white sheets
Not the white pills
Doctor, let her out of this hell
Cuz she's trying
And she's fighting
This monster she's created inside herself


Throw away those thoughts
And come back to me
You know I'll always be there
Just take my hand
I love you
I love you
Please come home to me

Yellow

Alright, so it's time for more lyrics! I really really want you guys' opinions; I need all the help I can get. This is a song I wrote awhile ago, it's just a cute little song I wrote out in the sun. It was like, the first day it was warm outside and I laid out in the grass and wrote. I was so high on life, and the color yellow is what kept coming to mind while I was writing, so there's the title. I really would love a guitar part for this song, and anyone who wants to collab with me to bring this about (seeing as how I still can't play guitar), I would love you forever! :D

Yellow

The little girl
Wrapped in the yellow dress
She makes the whole world shine


The little boy
With the starry eyes
His world is always on fire


And when he's with her
It's like the whole sky's
Covered in bright stars
The same color as her eyes


Oh! Could this be love?
There's nothing greater in this world
Than a little boy and girl
Falling in love


The little boy
Growing up too fast
She's always on his mind


That little girl
In the pretty yellow dress
She dreams about him every night


And when she's with him
Her heart beats a little bit faster
And she smiles from head to toe


Oh! Could this be love?
There's nothing greater in this world
Than a plain old boy and girl
Falling in love


It must be love
He makes her want to scream and shout
And always makes the sun come out
It's love

And one day she'll be his wife
He can't wait to kneel on one knee
She can't wait to share her life with him
And when they die, it'll be beautiful
He'll still think that she's beautiful


Oh! Could this be love?
There's nothing greater in this world
Than a boy and a girl
Who've found true love


Let's fall in love
I want nothing fromm this world
Than to be the only girl
You love


Let's fall in love
I will wear my yellow dress
Under the stars we'll both confess
That we're in love

The Jerk Song

So here's a really stupid song I wrote awhile ago, but everyone seems to like it... If you're in the mood for entertainment, ask me to play it for you sometime! :D



And what was I?
Was I just another girl on your list
Of girls you think that you can mess with?
But I'm through

And you're a jerk
You're a first-class moron
You're a jerk
The source of all my problems
You're a jerk
You should go back to nice school
Cuz you're a jerk

You took me out
And you didn't even call
And I did nothing wrong at all
Except for you, yeah, you

Cuz you're a jerk
You're a first-class moron
You're a jerk
The source of all my problems
You're a jerk
You should go back to nice school
Cuz you're a jerk

You should be slapped
Right across the face
If not by me, another girl will take my place
It's what you deserve

Cuz you're a jerk
You're a first-class moron
You're a jerk
The source of all my problems
You're a jerk
You should go back to nice school
Where all the other kids will know how to play fair except for you
I bet you'll probably flunk out fourty-three times or more
Or maybe not pass at all
Cuz you're a jerk

Faith in Me

So here's some lyrics to a song I wrote about a year ago. It's not my favorite, but oh well.

Faith in Me

Do you ever feel like you're alone?
And do you you ever lift your hands and pray
To God who is up above
Hoping that he will send you love?
Do you feel you'll never be okay?

Do you laugh when you're not happy?
Do you ever smile to hide the pain
You feel inside
But you'll never show it to anyone?
I'm always here have a little faith in me

And we will fly to the highest point in the world
We will scream at the top of our lungs
We won't look back,
They've had their chance
All you gotta do is have a little faith in me

Do you feel like life isn't worth it?
Are you in a race you know you can't win?
Just take my hand, I understand
I know you're gonna go far kid

And we will fly to the highest point in the world
We will scream at the top of our lungs
We won't look back,
They've had their chance
All you gotta do is have a little faith in me

We will fly to the highest point in the world
We will scream at the top of our lungs
We won't look back,
They've had their chance
All you gotta do is have a little faith in me

And we will fly to the highest point in the world
We will scream at the top of our lungs
We won't look back,
they've had their chance

We won't look back
They've had their chance
All you gotta do is have a little faith in me

This is What Goodbye Feels Like

So I'm working on a new song, and I thought it might be a good idea to post the lyrics, maybe get some feedback. (Haha nobody reads my blog so it's kind of pointless) But anyways, here's a song I've been working on for about a month. I'm actually kind of proud of myself, but feel free to inform me of any cheesiness/tackiness/suckiness. :) Also, I don't really like the title I chose...Just to be clear, part of this is feelings I've felt, part of it isn't. And no, it's not about anybody/anything in particular.


This is What Goodbye Feels Like

The sun in my face
Pachuca Sunrise in my ear
I can't help but to think of you
But there's snow on the ground
And you've gone away
Honestly, I don't think you even cared at all

Things have changed
You left me to find a new star
But here I stand
Alone and afraid in the dark

So, this is goodbye
I never imagined I could feel like this
There's anger flowing from my lips
With each word I sing
My heart's breaking in two
Your cliched words run through my mind
And bring these cliche tears that I cry

I've said my goodbyes
But I didn't mean them
The unsaid words are screaming in my head
The silence from you
Makes my heart beat heavy
I tell myself I'll be just fine alone

Things have changed
You left me to find a new star
But here I stand
Alone and afraid in the dark

So, this is goodbye
I never imagined I could feel like this
There's anger flowing from my lips
With each word I sing
My heart's breaking in two
Your cliched words run through my mind
And bring these cliche tears that I cry

Will you remember me
Now your life here is through?
Will you look back on old memories
As lovers do?
I'll hold those sweet words you said to me
Deep in my heart
And hope that you will use my songs
To guide you through the dark
We fought and we cried
We tried and we tried
This is all that's left to do
Even though I'm still in love with you

So, this is goodbye
So, this is goodbye
I never imagined I could feel like this
There's anger flowing from my lips
With each word I sing
My heart's breaking in two
Your cliched words run through my mind
And bring these cliche tears that I cry

The sun in my face
Pachuca Sunrise in my ear
I can't help but to think of you

So yep, that's my current project! Let me know what you think! :D
