joemckie Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 Here are some lyrics for a song my band are writing. I'm quite happy with them Otherminds Do You feel? Do you know how to? Can you love? Do you know how to? Will you fool me? You know how to. Chorus The Problem of other minds Am I loved or truly blind? Are you really sweet and kind Or just another auto-mind? Pointless piece or heroic savior Destined journey or doomed endevour Oh faux god, why is it? Ministry experiment? Truman's own entertainment? Can will I fight or just lament? I really like this one, it's different it's kinda sharp and unlike poetry (which I wish i could write lyrics like, but nope! mine have to rhyme apparently.) Keep it up man!

Dave. Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I really like this one, it's different it's kinda sharp and unlike poetry (which I wish i could write lyrics like, but nope! mine have to rhyme apparently.) Keep it up man! It makes more sense with context. The Problem of Other Minds is the idea that you're the only self-aware being and that all others around you are simply organisms that know exactly what to say, like robots. Its a thought that everyone has every once in a while and I thought it would be a great thing to write a song about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jujubean Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Lyrics (note, I don't sing most of these in the video...) (verse1) I lay under your skin It's what I eat (Oh you're so good) And what I hunger is you Under your skin I feed on you (And when the time is right) Then your soul is mine (chorus) I'll always find a way To rip you into little pieces I'll always find a way To tear your heart in two (verse2) I know you want lies The fuel to your fire I starve on your freedom, baby (chorus) I'll always find a way To rip you into little pieces I'll always find a way To tear your heart in two I'll always find a way To rip you into little pieces I'll always find a way To break even your tomorrow, yeah Addictive lyrics.

ProblematiqueHurricane Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Our own reflection, has grown so tired of how reality looks Schism, the people and their guardians Inhaling their own propaganda, believing their own sorry lies Shelve the excuses, sever all ties Sew shut the mouth that speaks the secrets How can you sleep, when the innocents are dying? How can you sleep, when their families are crying? Satan put a job aside for you alone To ruin the purest of souls you know To ravish the uninfected, fit them to a mould Satan put away a promise for you Now you've become a demon too And you're starting to like your pitchfork of gold Way overdue, the necro instincts taking over you Tear apart the country's heartstrings You pluck them like a harp, they snap off in your fingers The uprising's near, the resistance lingers We just want our men back home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raiga Kagekami Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Hey OP, your voice is pretty good. Parasite sounds kinda Muse-y actually. I find bucket_'s Point Blank pretty cool as well. I've written some lyrics but I can barely play any instruments at all, safe for some simple stuff on the piano. So I just sing the melody and imagine everything else in my head. Sigh, I should take lessons some day. But anyways here's one of the better ones - Sorely Another message sent flying across the table Another footstep away from the door Dust in the air for every step you dare take Turning around, you gave me that last bit Well, what a last bit The kettle's screeching signifies a signal The baby's cry another one to survive The endless one-voiced monologues in my head Well, what a running joke What a funny joke All I'm asking is Why does it have to have me? Why does it have to have me? And when When will the lines stop Dripping from your tap of thirst The colors pouring from the top of my head Burning bridges and all the things alike Your house is now blazing; on fire Guess whose hands? Yes, whose hands? Let these thoughts form a nightmare Just a nightmare Till I come bare All I'm asking is Why does it have to have me? Why does it have to have me? And will Would it love to leave me? Is it love to leave me? You've been running around for ages; running from don't know what But you just don't know when to stop You know what comes around will come around, One day you'd end up running home And all that's left Are the ashes that you had built once Into passion for the things we've done Will the mark be left upon you? Sure enough I hear the echoes of those silent steps Slowly moving backwards in despair But is it me or is it you?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gohenko Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Well... this is my first full lyric... It's rather dark, but it's based on some rather dark experiences in my life so I guess it would be Point Blank/Death Stare At point blank, it surrounds, in around, all encompassing sounds Claws at sleeves, gnaws at soul, encapsulates A death stare, full view, no view, all view, no view It struggles from within, (yet) outside and in It forces you, to listen to the loud Thump thump thump, ever faster A death stare, full view, no view, all view, no view But a bright light cries as the closed box flies (in moonlit skies) Back it rushes A death stare, full view, no view, all view, no view Back it rushes Back it rushes I like this. Very much, actually. Maybe it's because I'm quite a dark person myself. Lately I've tried to come up with lyrics of my own, here's some that aren't as bad as the other ones I've made: Hypnotize (complete) I will take a hold of you, spin your eyes over and over Your vision will be twisted, refrain from touching it Move around the blur, go to a waterfall Let water run through your fingertips Ignite your soulless spine Don't be a mountain of stone Ride above the clouds Turn into a floating river and come to me once again In Love (unfinished) Underneath my body, my thoughts wander You are the feelings of me, my white tree A constellation in the light, a roar of thunder I'm your element of surprise, I'll hunt you I'll catch you Your flesh is all I see (It's all I need) You grow inside me (I feel you) Now I open my heart (It glows strong) I'm in love (Oh I'm in love) Wall Of Fire (unfinished) Breathing the same air again I hoped to not feel a thing Of all the hopes I cherished Of all the dreams I wished for It happened I heard the echoes I can't return to where I came from (I don't even want to) I run forward and ride with the dark Wall of fire Let me march to your gates Wall of fire Let me come through I desire to see my future One that will not fade away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave. Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Peace or Genocide Faint voices, strange noises Straining eyes, unknown ties we hear from the other side Are you for peace or genocide? They are coming. That thin light stands alone along the wall Their silhouettes stand up proud and tall Should we prepare to run, to slice, to maul? Now we wait, their voices soon to call. The door was knocked and we returned From the past will we have learned? Will the posion of war be churned Or will our fear be sliced and burned? They are coming. That thin light stands alone along the wall Their silhouettes stand up proud and tall Should we prepare to run, to slice, to maul? Now we wait, their voices soon to call.

Gohenko Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 So I decided to take a go at some pop lyrics: I Know You VERSE I know you’re there now I know you wanted to be there Again ooh I thought you were gone But you wake me up with your sound Again CHORUS Why won’t you let me dream? Why can’t you let me feel? I know you You’re there Watching as I breathe VERSE I know you’re there now I know I was too hasty with everything Again ooh You are still away, away from me But you wake me up with you scent You make me shiver and stress CHORUS Why won’t you let me dream? (It’s just the way of life) Why can’t you let me feel? (It’s a circle of wonders) I know you Oh I know you You’re there Watching as I breathe BRIDGE 1 I’d give everything I can for you I’d give everything I can for you I’d give everything I can for you But I don’t need you VERSE I know you’re there now I know you wanted to be there Again ooh I thought you were gone But you wake me up with your sound Again BRIDGE 2 Hours and dust Constellations in the night Dreaming of something Something good for tomorrow I know you I know you will be there I know you will be there I know you will Oh yeah CHORUS Why won’t you let me dream? (It’s just the way of life) Why can’t you let me feel? (It’s a circle of wonders) Why won’t you let me dream? (It’s just the way of life) Why can’t you let me feel? (It’s a circle of wonders) I know you Oh I know you You're there Watching as I breathe Oh it’s just the way that life goes Circle of wonders It’s just the way of life It’s just a circle of wonders And I know that I don’t need you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raiga Kagekami Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Hope more people post theirs. Meanwhile, a bit more from me - Perpetrators (Incomplete; I didn't really know what I was writing about) I'm worried I've been sailing, on a burning ship Too hurt to leave it all behind You set the sea on fire, my miracles disposed Deliriously numb The feeding of the flames, scorch the sky high Burning the skyline Still in disrepair, hope is not a dare For me to reward Feel like I'm gone Ruins and souls Feel like I need But filled me with woes Too much too soon Too much too soon Ballistic wounds Just leave it all behind Till the morning comes When I've cried my soul out Feelings disallowed Thrill the same Till the morning comes Like I've been thrown out Sadistic hounds Chase the reigns of my world Languor This disparity Pains this living thing How do you ask yourself each day Why are you left to be? Typical thoughts Wishing you were more Than what you really are Swell in solitary Don't be my guest Don't be the very best Time will only tell another tale Cause time will only tell another tale I keep repeating all the stories in my mind I kept hearing stories from before Though at first I thought they were familiar Before I realized what was wrong Oh, memories Of what used to be Of what I've always held onto for so long Misery Has come to greet me Will your hand be there once again to slip mine off? This disparity Pains this living thing How do you ask yourself each day Why are you left to be? Typical thoughts Wishing you were more Than what you really are Swell in solitary Don't be my guest Don't be the very best Just let me fade and disappear from your sight Don't be my guest And forget the rest Unfeeling the moments of the past (repeats chorus once more after a bridge) ------------------------------------------------------------- Yeah, I wrote Languor a year ago when I felt lonely and depressed. My music tastes weren't helping, I didn't mesh with the in-crowd in school, my friends had many others to attend to. Oh well. I suppose writing from experience is the best.

joemckie Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 Found this in a stack of old lyrics/poems of mine Grace If I could voice the words resounding my mind, or show you my visions of life I've designed, All of my fears would slowly subside, then I'd Let you inside so our souls intertwine. Had you the power to see through my eyes; See the beauty as pure as the skies; Feel the love as I do deep inside; In you I feel new and my wrongs rectified. Should I be able to show you my heart, And the fire that's burned so bright from the start Then all of my demons would surely depart, Be cleansed of my sins and my wrongs torn apart. But I am a mortal, no creature of faith, While the air that you carry is held in your name. Nobody's perfect, the closest I've found I see before me, right here and right now.

joemckie Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 In Love (unfinished) Underneath my body, my thoughts wander You are the feelings of me, my white tree A constellation in the light, a roar of thunder I'm your element of surprise, I'll hunt you I'll catch you Your flesh is all I see (It's all I need) You grow inside me (I feel you) Now I open my heart (It glows strong) I'm in love (Oh I'm in love) Finish this one!

Raiga Kagekami Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Been pretty inactive in writing anything, but I started again a few days before and while I'm still in the groove I guess I'll be writing for a bit. Here's two I came up with recently. There's sort of a relevance between them, probably inspired by my journey to school on the train everyday. I don't know why but here they go. The Daily Spiral Nimble today, I've been slipping away From the stratosphere, the matter of today Billion arrays, lighting up the shallow waves I'm zooming down in circular motion Erratic notions, peeling eyes again X marks the ocean, but I've lost the beacon Simple dive today, simple dive today Push myself away and into the vessel Alighting at day, moving up the second lane Before shoving cuffs through rapid terminals Listless display, of a second-hand charade I loathe the look but smile anyway Smile anyway Descending from the nought to bot, transmitting data on and off Equations of the master hub, completing cycles in a rush Hindered, from the ultraviolet When will I dream of dawn again? The vessel keeps me safe and sound, but not from the voices in my head Head Erratic notions, peeling eyes again X spits the quotient, but I'm lost in slow motion Simple dive today, simple dive today Push myself away and live in the distant Simple dive today, simple dive today Billion miles away and into the distant Simple dive today, simple dive today Push myself away and swirl into spiral Simple dive today, simple dive today, simple dive today... - repeat till satisfied - ...Simple dive today. Absolute Zero [working title] Sleepwalking, frozen capsules Eyes static, cubic voices Keep up, keep me up tonight Slipstreaming, breaking hours Carbon oxides, suction idle Keep up, keep me up tonight Slipping cards and holding watches Ticking clocks that slowly turn away, from time again I'm freezing on, till night turns old, control your own desires I'm solid cold, a wintry soul, ooohh Tiptoeing, matching faces Swirl circle, breathe on me Keep up, keep me up tonight Sole comfort, middle powers Up and upwards, cymbal tower Tilts down, keep me safe tonight Rules to make and ugly speeches Skipping rocks that slowly curve away, from lull again I'm freezing on, till night turns old, control your own desires Now solid cold, a wintry soul Repeat, amend and devour Ooooh And it's obsolete, memory escalate Strings to pull and push again Floating on a pathway Emasculate, disintegrate I'm sorry / I'm sorry / I'm sorry / I'm sorry I'm sorry (It's alright) / I'm sorry (It's alright) Postmortem (Simple signs) / Immortal (Keep in line) Screwed up (You've always have) / Speechless (Computing eyes) Loveless (Always and will ever be) / Timeless (Always will never be) Keep up (It's alright) / Meltdown (It's alright) Straining eyes (Simple signs) / Start again (No noises) I'm sorry (You've always been) / I'm sorry (Again and again) It's alright / It's alright.
