here are some lyrics i wrote a few years ago. they are very teenage angst and most of them are pretty shit, but i like to share.

Whispers

And so the whispers start
Blowing like the wind
The knives are sharpened
Things are happening
Time waits for no man
And im a no man too
But im a judge of nothing
And nothing I will do

(Chorus)
Whispers running through the hallways
Running through the night
Flowing through the cracks in truth
And ruining my life

I know you don’t care for this
Yes it’s just a silly game
Eat, drink, mock the weak
Life goes on the same
If you think im harmless
You’re in for a surprise
You’re weak in this scenario
I can see it in your eyes

You’re scared of this world
Just a speck in the night
Talk about the others
To keep away the light
Hide away your feelings
highlight someone else
You’re a tortured soul
And I think you need help


Cancer

See it working its way through
Taking hold of your soul
I see you fighting, trying to breath
It never lets go, it never leaves

I see you fading, slipping away
It hurts to see you living this way
I can’t help you with this
Can’t make you see the way

(Chorus)
Cancer, it’s a cancer of life
It chews people up and then throws them away
Its fucking awful, but it’s a powerful drug
And it’s killing all the people I love

What’s wrong with this picture?
You’re addicted to pain
You’ve lost your perspective
And you’re hurting again


Comfort

Leave him be
Don’t poison his world
Poison his water
Or infect his mind
He’s happy when singing
Feeling the power
Indestructible
Nothing can stop him

His loneliness protects him
It keeps him warm
Wrapped in fears
Questions are coldness
They dampen the dark
Slits in the blanket
Show real veins
Show real heartache

Bring on the sun
Bring on the stars
Bring on the lightning
Bring on the rain


Consumed

I’m waiting for a phone call
I’m waiting for a sign
I’m waiting for some instinct
Some things you can’t deny
I’m feelin kinda broody
I’m feeling inside out
I’m feeling fucking awful
Like my life’s in doubt

Crude matter
Ties me down
Organic substance
I don’t want to be this anymore

I look inside my sickness
I look inside my cloud
I look inside my torture
Hear me crying loud
I wouldn’t wish this on an animal
Wouldn’t wish this on a foe
Wouldn’t wish this on any mortal
Cos when your here you’ll know

Deep inside
The cells divide
The blood turns black
The skin subsides

The weather reflects my mood
Thunder lightning falling rain
It turns to see my face again
Hurt wells up inside me
I can’t let it out
I can’t see me winning this one
Can’t see me laughing ever
Engulfed in my madness
Can’t reach for the cord
There is no rainbow
There is no reward
So I sleep, bury it all away
Hold it in, wrap it up
I like to feel this
Do I fuck!
Fuck this! X4
I just gotta let it go x10

Heading for a fall

I don’t’ like what I’m feeling,
Cos what I’m feeling isn’t good
I’d like you to help me,
It wouldn’t help me if you could
I’m locked up in loneliness
Tangled in my pain,
You see I saw that sign for love
And I’m heading that way

You can call me stupid
You can say that I’m naïve,
But when she’s here beside me
I’m as happy as can be,
Please read my future psychic
And tell me she’s the one,
Cos love and I we don’t mix
We’re like a child with a gun

(Chorus)
I know I’m heading for a fall x3
And I don’t like it at all


And after all the fallout
I hope your still around,
To talk to when I’m lonely
To lift me when I’m down
I don’t seem to do too well
In this barbed wire game
Whatever way I move
It still feels the same


I want to be you

I want to be you
Playing with your money
I want to be you
Laughing with your girlfriend
I want to be you
You seem so happy
I want to be you
Cos I don’t want to be me

Don’t want to be me
For I have nothing
Don’t want to be me
For I have no-one
Don’t want to be me I’m going nowhere
Don’t want to be me
And you just don’t care

(Chorus)
I’m so needy, I’m so clingy
I’m so fragile, I’m so flimsy
I’m so big, I’m so small
I am nothing, nothing at all


I am lying
Cos I feel the pain
The pain of nothingness
It doesn’t go away
I need someone
To push up next to me
I need someone
Who wants me for me


Last Night

Am I pissed at you?
You could say I am
But you the god
Hey you the man
You see you’re everything
A women needs
Except you don’t care
And you’re not me

You see I ain’t so macho
I don’t have it where it shows
Hey I’m a normal guy
Not on a cloud and never high
Lemmings come and lemmings go
Why they bother I don’t know
Of my feelings I can tell you this
I think you just take the piss

(chorus)
I don’t like this
And I’m not sure why
But I know that I am pure
But I have been tongue-tied
I’m bitter now
And scared of this mood
If I could change everything about last night
Then I think I would

This anger welling in my soul
Is telling me to pack & go
And the hatred running down my spine
Informs me things aren’t fine
This afflicting plague that haunts
I can’t escape soon enough
I wish I fast enough to flee
Cos I cant take much more of me


Lies

…and so it happens again
We get to drop more bombs
And pretend that were good
We’ll blame someone else
Cos we are the heroes
The saviours of life
That’s the story I’m selling
I bet you’ll buy

We want to be martyrs
We want to be kings
Master and ruler
Yeah bring me my things
Well I’ll smash the illusion
I’ll rip through those dreams
Im gonna convince you
Life’s not what it seems

(Chorus)
Its just lies! Lies! Lies! X4

I’m sick of the bullshit
Everything must go
This ain’t for salvation
Its all for show
See I see the future
It doesn’t bode well
This world we live in
I’d rename it hell

All this searching for progress
High standard of life
Is getting us nowhere
The noose just gets tight
Were killing ourselves
But no one can see
We’ve lost all the human
In humanity!


My Time


Something had to change
So I made it happen
Took the steps
And took control of my life
With my future before me
And with nothing left to stop me
I go forward and learn

I’ve always made myself available
To anyone that needs me
I’m the blanket, I’m the shoulder
That you cried on and held
I don’t mind this, but I
Gotta do this for me
For myself and no one else

(Chorus)
This is for me
This is my time
This sets me free
This is my life

Cos im all used up now
I’ve given credit for too long
Been a rock of ages
That age has gone
I feel bitter and sour
Feel angry and used
Gonna be good to me now
It’s my choice to choose

( ? )

No one to talk to
No one to care
No one who listens
No one is there
No one is looking
No one is loving
No one is pushing

Feeling very empty
Feeling quite full
Feeling that’s truthful
Feeling that’s bull
Feeling alone here
Feeling quite sad
Feeling quite guilty
Feeling quite bad

(Chorus)
Help me
Break me
Contort me
Erase me
Feel me
Know me
Love me
Show me

I’ll give you my heart here
Ill gives you my soul
Ill give you my life now
Ill give you my all
Ill give you my heartache
I’ll give you my vein
Ill give you my weakness
Ill give you my pain

(Middle eight)
I have nothing
Nothing to give
A nothing existence
Yet still I live
I bare the boredom
I scar in this place
I’m numb in this void
With nothing I’m fazed

Sub Low

At my lowest ebb
I scream in silence
Wanting something to happen
Wanting someone to see
I try so hard
To make myself friends
It’s always on my time
I always sacrifice myself

(Chorus)
I feel alone
Just like I’ve always been

Water rises to the surface
Torrents fall down the face of thee
For just how long will I be this?
Walking through my private ghost town
Lonely person on a lonely planet
Nothing is important
Feel emotional frost
When I just want to belong
You just want to feel lost

(Chorus)

I’m too fragile for this assault course
I can’t walk on this high wire
I can’t swim through this whirlpool
Don’t expect me to walk
Across this seismic fault
When my ducts are empty
Bitterness remains
Eating through me
Making my stomach turn
For I am empty
I am nothing
I will disappear from view

Someone grab me before
I fall down
Pick me up and dust me down
Talk to me and make me wanted
For if I don’t want me
Then who will?


The Stream

Rattles around
Black mould
Numb arms
Gentle voice
Siren wails
Crescendo builds
Eyebrows raised
Can’t think sane
Can’t react
So slow
Creeping inertia
Swaying and rocking
Cold chrome glints
Sinking sweetly
Legs of stone
Arms of concrete
Mental block

OK I just wrote this in about five minutes. You might want to change a it a bit, I don't know. But here is my song

Incest is OK on Fridays

I used to go to church
And listen to their shit
Don't kill, don't lie
don't do none of it

I remember being ten
And listening to them
They said incest was bad
And so I asked my dad

Daddy, Daddy the priests they say
that when you touch me
In the special way
Jesus cries, he gets upset
He'll send you to hell
if my peepee you pet

Then dad he took me aside
put me in the closet and
In me he did confide:
One night when I was sleeping
While your stupid mom was weeping
God came to me in a dream
And told me the greatest thing
On Saturday, Sunday and all of the week
Incest is bad, it you should not seek
But Friday is a special day
On Friday it is all ok

*chorus*
Incest is ok on Friday
No hell, no priest can take that away
Incest is ok on Friday
So son get on your knees and pray

repeat

Why squirrels eat nuts

In the beginning, before the parks,
Before swings and slides and rides;
A brother squirrel’s stomach rumbled,
Horrible rumblings swamped by Marx.

Noisy children overlooked the squirrel’s plight,
They were busy not playing on the swings.
Too busy, it seems, for a helpless squirrel (meantime),
Armed with an empty stomach, continued to fight.

Resting, panting, fighting, trying, dying.
Knee high to the grass like a plastic doll,
The squirrel’s pathetic screams, were masked by:
All that is evil in the world: Dirty children lying.

(Chorus)
All the evil in the world,
Stops the squirrel eating.
Happy to repress
His need for sleeping
Lynch;
Mob: The world is a park full of fascist
Squirrel nut deprivation clinics.

In the aftermath, smoking embers,
After the parks are burnt and forgotten
A brother squirrel lives on
Horrible living, marred by
The world’s evil members.


------------------------

I have found some kind of temporary sanity in this shit blood and cum on my hands.
