Hey !
Alsmost everyone on this part of the forum plays guitar or another instrument, or sings or so. I guess everyone is trying to write their own songs to. People are posting their demo's here all the time, but why not dropping your self- written lyrics up here on this thread ? That way we can all read them, could give our opinion or suggestions and stuff. Please post your lyrics up here.
I'll post my lyrics up here some later when i'm home (i'm at work right now). Please post yours to !
Cheers mates !

This thread might just fall flat on its arse but here goes:
Keep On Living
Endless searching of a tide that sweeps through all minds and old memories Gotta set sail for a course that leads us through don't try to make it all alone creeping up on me, a tide that sweeps
Through a glass we'd look back to the days of innocence and more we gave away after all not knowing where to go sums up the dreams that still matter more than how we spent our lives under a tide that sweeps
It's beautiful if you say so it's beautiful if it means something to you
Keep on living

Here are some of my lyrics :
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Plastic People
Verse: Ya swim thru yer mind in a submarine,
Just go under red and stop under green
you’ll see things you’ve never seen
you can hear me say it, but do you know what I mean ?
Verse: so meet me tonight down memory lane
and let’s create some dreams in the pouring rain
We'll walk through a supersonic hurricane
And get on board a plastic train
Bridge: the ship is sinking hold on tight
we'll burn this place all day tonight
Ask yourself in yer one-man show,
And maybe the answers definitely know
Verse: I’d see the streets in yellow and green
And the memory lanes you’ve never been
Build yerself a place out of plastecine
Put down yer gun, God saves the answer-machine
Verse: Lemons in my tea will make me shine
my heads still banging from weak old wine.
let me build you a golden shrine
and everything tomorrow brings will be just fine
(bridge + chorus)
Chorus: Imagine all those plastic people,
Buying their ticket to the sun
But after sunshine follows thunder
It’s makes those people on the run
Chorus 2 :
Imagine all those plastic people
They melt away into the sun
And after sunshine follows thunder
Thunder shots come from my gun
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Bluebird
You flew over rivers Over cities and mountains Over green trees and blue seas Over piers and over fountains
You landed on my shoulder And sung my a song Little blue eyed bluebird Your wings pretecting me from harm
Bluebird, bluebird, bluebird ahooooww (repeat 2x)
Another bird had been mine before But it flew away to another tree That tree’s on the hill upthere And my old bird does still care
It’s time now to hold you in my hand To give you love and supplies I hope you’ll settle down here forever And learn me to fly, that will be nice
That will be nice (repeat)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Careful where you’re walking
Careful where you're walking cause you're stepped on my old dreams You can hear me talking but you dont know what i mean
It's clear yer try wake me and you don’t really understand The sea I’m drowning in is the way John on the clouds ment
you look at my reflection all you see's a lonely crowd Why don’t ya pay attention when i try to go let it out
bridge: Lucy won’t see you it at all See go’s faster than a canonball Maybe it’s delusional Elsa sits high up in the tree Waiting for her fall ... Sitting thinking of all the things i could become Sipping drinking reminissing just for fun All the things i could become Tomorrow let me see what i can be
How many seconds have to pass until you know All the reasons you cant let go Let me live the life i want for me Let me be
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's one of mine, it's one of the songs I'm pretty proud of, and I'll be recording a decent version of it soon!
Paradise Uncensored
When I woke up in the early morning All I could see was a blurry haze And everything that passed the night before No signs as they left no trace
Take the last drop from the bottle As I get up from the dirty floor I took a look around the messy room But couldn't find a door
Sometimes I use my purple eyes To wain into my paradise Until I start to realise That's when all the laughter dies
Look into your eyes made of steel They look so cold but feel so real And nothing can change the way I feel
My limbs felt numb I couldn't stand Pulled down by gravity Face towards the dirty ground Confirmed my reality
Sometimes I use my purple eyes When I dream myself into paradise Suddenly I start to realise That's when all the laughter dies
Look into your eyes made of steel They look so cold but feel so real And nothing can change the way I feel No nothing can change the way I feel And nothing can change the way I feel Nothing can change
Funny thing is that I wrote this when I came home after a night out and I was more or less drunk when I wrote this song ;D
- SuperSeb

Its more like a poem, but maybe someday i can write a tune for it...
Early days was it when I Lost a piece, a part of mine Until I found this missing piece Never felt I'd been released
Living life was just a phase Wandering right into my grave Laughter was a precious thing Until I found what I was missing
What's it been and what's it like To be complete before you die? But I believe that I believe It's the ultimate relief
But where's to look and where's to find? For thoughts to fill this gap in mind For someone getting close to me Almighty me, where could it be
Must I search or must I wait For someone opening my gate For someone turning this one key That no-one owns, not even me
All my life I thought that I Would be alone until I die With no-one knowing who I've been With dreams as only company
But then you came and then you say That you'll blow my clouds away So I can let forever be But better off: forever we
And fair enough, I have to say With you standing on my way World is turning faster than Lightning reaching for the land

The Tranquil War
Poet pathetic Poet Where is your honesty and where do you find your truth? Intellectual dullard, frigid & aloof From where can I buy designer ability like yours? Nepotism.com and selected stores.
Poet pathetic Poet Who are you today and where did you bury the fire? Imitation bard, sentiment for hire From where can I glean shifting ideals like yours? “From the broadest of rags and University halls!”
Poet pathetic Poet Who is next and to where should they bring their dirt? Usher of the hurried many, canny raconteur From where can I draw casual scorn like yours? Through a fog of convention, tall headlines and tranquil wars.

(To standard blues chords/structure)
Oh shes a gold digger But im the type a guy who likes to roll the dice I waited in the rain for her figgure Oh I was tortured by her own device
Oh shes a bitch A bait and switch
Shes a gold digger
Oh yeah she wants my money Kinda thing that makes me wanna get outta there Then she says she loves you honey Then all my insecurities will disappear
Oh its a truce You've been abused
By gold digger
I thought they were quite good, however I'm no noel gallagher sadly.

I've been living on the sidewalks for most of my life or would you call it pavement? well, each to his own Sometimes I sit myself down watching the cars pass me by heading for unknown destinations along that endless road The other day I saw you you had your windows rolled down and there was someone next to you wearing a wedding gown I raised my hand to wave before I quickly put it down It was as if I had forgotten that I'm never around
