Song Lyrics
here are some random lyrics that i joted down in a document for safe keeping. just in case i may want to use these for longer poems or songs. i've tried writing a song or two in the past, but they sucked major. now, i'm sampling things that deal with what i'm like, more say. here goes and i know that most of these sound bad for they are very rough and never seen before! here goes nothing...:

Song Lyrics
Song #1: You brought back my ocean
Don’t look beyond my depths because you may not like what you see
Song #2: I can’t wait for tomorrow
Will it bring me joy or bring me sorrow?

Song #3: All new pain
Brings back all these scars
All this pain

Song #4: I can’t wait for tomorrow
Will it bring me lies or just more sorrow?
I don’t want to lead this sad life no more
I just want to take it and throw it all away, yeah
So you were made to hurt me
What more can I do, but run away from you
No one will ever truly understand me
I don’t ask for more pain
All I get back are all these scars
All this pain, all the same
Why must I learn the hard way?
Oh, never mind
Why would you care about me so?
dark is the hour that i reach for something that is not even there
then why do i go to hope when my mind is so clouded?
fog settling over me of things that once were
long are the hours of everlasting life that i hold within me
many flights to experience and feeling
some emotions that reach to the sky and depths of the ocean
seeing the world around you alter for the better or worse
people losing honor and strength of valor
nothing is what it used to be nor was it acknowledged
i am not one to say that i'm perfect or superior
i have my own scars that increase as sun rises and sets
some reopen and i bleed out to only regain the darkness
darkness i try to hard to hide for who i am and what i stand for
many shadows cling to me, haunting as i go
all the one's that i held dear all those lifetimes ago, are now gone
i only get to know another, a life, for such a shortime
the past i knew, was comforting and honourable
people did things for the sake of good and not glory
i'm not saying all people have lost their senses
some just need to find it, others just need to show it
all that glitters is not gold and shouldn't have to amount to it.
(tba)
i'm not getting anywhere these days
with paranoia on my shoulders and hate before me
lashing out without a moments notice
why,why must i hurt the ones that are near me?
oh, no, why must i take things the hard way?
(in the style and play on nickelback's "learn the hardway" song from the daredevil soundtrack. this is not part of the poem above!)
Stay Gone
CHORUS
Oh, I can’t wait for tomorrow
Will it bring me joy or bring me sorrow?
I have despair upon my shoulders and hate before me
This is starting to get to be too much
And now I lash out at others before me
Don’t you see that you bring the worse within’ me?
Now I’m asking you: Why can’t you just stay gone?
I lie awake in bed, thinking that I can do better
Tomorrow I try to prove myself, but it gets all thrown back in my face
Whenever you’re around me, I can’t get anything done right
Your every presence and words eat away at what I’ve just become
I thought I had put the long road behind me and now it’s before me, once again
Filled with challenges and many miles of heartache
Why do I still let you get to me that way?
Now I’m asking you: Why can’t you just stay gone?
When I give you the truth, you return lies
We trade lines, so this goes on and on
Your words burn me like fire
And all I want to do is shut you out
CHORUS
All I wanted to do was save your life
Allow you to live, to see a better tomorrow
But now I realize that you’re just another pretty face in the crowd
A face with a heart that was never there for me
You drag me down into darkness and so I bleed again, for you
Why should I care?
Care when you appear on my doorstep again for help
I’ll open my eyes and shut you out
Out for all times
Be gone and stay gone
CHORUS

Not all eyes are seeing, but that doesn’t mean they are blind.
They may see, but choose not to believe.
Some even choose to forget the unbelievable.
Some don’t allow their minds to expand beyond their values.
They may look at us in hate, fear, pity, or the ever rare, an understanding.
Yes, we are different, but that doesn’t mean that we aren’t human.
We feel pain and joy like anyone else does in this world.
Why scorn all of us for one’s actions?
In your blind hatred, you want to be rid of or control us.
You tear us down by shunning us in public.
How can you do this, when we were once like you?
Or, at least, once knew you?
Some of our appearances may change, but are we monsters for it?
Our auras don’t change.
You may fear us, but we are not all here to make you bleed.
As in bleeding, pushing you out of existence as if you were scum.
The truly twisted try to change us.
Some for the worse, while others for their selfish, yet precious, memories of old.
Some of our betters try to aide you, the innocent.
Others see no point in helping the blind or deaf.
This is an never ending turmoil: whose better?
The homo sapiens or the homo superiors?
Most of us are just struggling for our place in the world.
Can you truly blame us?
Will you never learn to share the world?
Yes, it has been historically proven as not your most defining attribute.
This is a harsh world to live in.
A race for the survival of the different.
We, the mutants, must go with the flow and accept our fate for now.
Not all will bow down, go down easy.
The corrupted will defend themselves by all means.
The determined are set to defend you.
Very nice 😄 😄 😄 ✅
You have an interesting style--very unique, more realistic than many poems. A lot of poetry is almost hard to understand because it's so... Figurative. It's quite refreshing to see somebody who just wants to get an idea across. I'm a little like that but I try to be somewhere in between the two...
Psst guys I made a poetry thread of my own...

why thank you for such a lengthy and positive review. i am most honoured of your praise. i have read some of your poems also, and they are nice and to the point. the words flow nicely and have a calming effect upon one's soul. i'll be sure to check out your poem thread!
Eternal Struggle
guilt and depression
both equally weigh down upon weary shoulders
weary of this broken life that they lead
minds heavy with tragic images
hearts filled with grief of lost love and chances
bodies pained to go on
do they ever find their soul purpose and place in life?
much have they wandered off their path, their sense of purpose
no can lend them help
even if they desire so
and so, the weary trudge on
along a never ending path
a path that is as bearen as a desert
desert of lonliness and dispair
the hot sun beating upon them cruely
like their cruel conscious scorning them all the time
life can be so harsh for the restless
restless who are hopeless, aimless, and cannot sleep
some find that sleep is no longer necessary
not as long as their past haunts them
following like a black cloud whereever they go
and wondering why
they may sit to take the time to see
see what a beautiful life they once had
they have all been on the upside of down
desiring to see a rainbow's smile
take a tip in the ocean
to take their time for them to heal
in reflection and dreaming, they think they can wash it away
bleeding scars of massive darkness
maybe tommorrow
maybe tomorrow, they'll find their way home?
maybe tomorrow
(half way through this, i played the lyrics upon stereophonic's "maybe tomorrow". i love that song and vid!! 😱 🤘 )
