Lost Curse.

I don't know...just a quick burst of inspiration.


Lost Curse


Like falling down the deepest hole,

Nails gripping to the edges,

You crawl whilst your crying soul,

Slowly drops to the floor,


What will you do?

How will you do it?

This ever-lasting curse binds your mind,

Be careful what you’ll find,


Escaping danger,

A plan made in heaven,

Formulated in hell,

Yet destined to go well,


Unforgiving and broken,

Swallowed by the words spoken,

Running through doors,

Embraced by your curse,

The urge to escape,

The urge to break,

The urge to be free,

Just you and me,


Shadows creeping around corners,

There silence echoed like screams,

Closing my eyes as they are,

Eating away at my dreams,


What can they do?

What will they do to me?

The glimpse of a crucial cure,

As my soul slowly falls to the floor,


Looking back,

Lost curses dying,

Prison guards crying,

As I’m smiling,


Unforgiving and broken,

Swallowed by the words spoken,

Running through doors,

Embraced by your cause,

The urge to escape,

The urge to break,

The urge to be free,

Just you and me,


You, me…

And a lost curse.

Like the day.

Like I said, maybe I'm just taking it out on the words?


Like the day:


Like the day,

Happiness leads astray,

And Darkness takes control,


The lyrics within this song stand alone,

Sometimes they escape and cry out,

Because it’s obvious to them how I feel,

It’s obvious to them what’s right and what’s real,


To those who read and to those who hate,

Your words do nothing to me,

As when my pen hits the paper, I’m writing with my mind,

I have nothing to hold in, I have nothing to hide,


Like the night,

Stars shine so bright,

Soon get swallowed by the light,


Who cares if it’s the saddest song?

Listen carefully or sing along,

Deep within hides a meaning,

My worries, my cares, my feelings,

Because I don’t care if it’s the saddest song,

I care about what’s right and wrong,


For crying out loud.

It's probably just a phase.


For Crying out Loud:


A picture of broken glass,

Classified by the shards of pain,

Hurdling around my brain,

As I watch myself,


Looking through a mirror,

Reflection lost and black,

My foundation, it cracks,

As I lose myself,


Feeling sorry,

Feeling daunted,

Being fearful,

Being haunted,

By the ghost of a past self,


For crying out loud,

For crying out loud,

If only I had control over my life,

And somehow I could turn back time,

And make things how they were supposed to be,

This person inside, this person is not me,


A stain of smoking blood,

Tears from the years before,

Always knocking at my door,

As I look back,


A sense of cruel words,

Printed in a burnt out book,

Causing me to turn and look,

Look somewhere else,


Dieing slowly,

Dieing in silence,

Always lonely,

Always broken,

By the ghost of a future me,


For crying out loud,

For crying out loud,

If only I could control my own life,

And somehow, once I’d turned back time,

I would make things how they were supposed to be,

Only to realise that in-fact, this was just for me,


Selfishness deprives us of sight,

But protecting yourself,

Protecting yourself is always right…

Saving Myself

This is the quickest lyric I have ever written, and it was written with nothing but my feelings.


Saving Myself:


Nobody seems to care anyway,

I try and make myself appear,

But I fail in every single way,

I wish I could change,


But it is never that easy,

Obviously there’s a reason,

But everything I see is hazy,

Will I ever be able to change?


Lose me,

Choose me,

Abuse me,

But please, don’t leave me,


Saving Myself,

From the nightmares, from the pain,

Saving yourself,

From the change that never came,

Somebody please,

Release me from this feeling of a lost age,

Wishing always,

That I could turn back time and Change,


But I’ve had my second chances,

Wasted all those times,

Speaking in past tenses,

This is exactly what I deserve,


Broken into different pieces,

Scattered across my soul,

The truth, finishing my race,

Lie’s never becoming old,


Create me,

Hate me,

Face me,

But please, no more pain,


Saving Myself,

From the nightmares, from the pain,

Saving yourself,

From the change that never came,

Somebody please,

Release me from this feeling of a lost age,

Wishing always,

That I could turn back time and Change,

Panic Attack

I don't really know what influenced this song, maybe it was because of my dull english coursework or the fact that I think im suffering a Panic Attack. Anyway, I hope you enjoy.

PANIC ATTACK

VERSE ONE

I never thought you understood,

But then again, who would?

You told me I needed to go,

But then again, what do you know?

Chills creep down my spine,

Every time I turn to look behind,

Where are you? Where are you?

Someone help, I don’t know what to do…

CHORUS

Panic attack, I can’t feel your touch,

I sense your fear, but not your love,

Difficult breathing, without you by my side,

I need you as a shadow, somewhere to hide,

When this demon engulfs me whole,

Where am I to go? What am I to do?

VERSE TWO

Happiness is just another lie,

I wonder, are you as lonely as I?

Suffocating under my own breath,

Is that light at the end my death?

Obviously you still care,

Maybe it’s because you’re scared,

Or maybe it’s because of me?

Maybe you just need to be free…

CHORUS


ENDING VERSE

What I’ve done, what I’ve said,

Will it matter when I’m dead?

Will you be there when I cry?

Will you watch me when I die?

I don’t think so,

In fact I know,

You won’t be back,

PANIC ATTACK

London Bridge is falling down.

Chorus:

London Bridge is falling down,

Falling down, falling down,

London Bridge is falling down,

But no-one seems to care,


London Bridge is falling through,

Falling through, falling through,

London Bridge is falling through,

But no-one seems to care,


Verse One:

Those people, too busy to understand,

Those suffering, their life in somebody else’s hands,

So careless about things that don’t bother them,

I wonder if they’d ever work off blood and sweat,


Bridge One:

The pain that’s caused,

The broken laws,

The untold truth,

So much more,


Chorus


Verse Two:

So fortunate, they look but they never see,

Reality, as it shows them who they will be,

Just caring about nobody apart from you,

Somebody should show them what they could do,


Bridge Two:

Those in need,

Those who bleed,

Left alone,

And need a home,


Chorus


Final Verse:

Some people, will choose that others come first,

Most people, though will always and forever be cursed,

With selfishness comes something that they’ll never feel,

Accomplishment, but this time it’s something real,


Bridge One


Chorus

Sweet Tears on my lips

Sweet Tears on my lips

I’m not normally a person, who sympathises,

But today is not a normal day,

I’m usually someone who moves on from all of this,

But there’s something blocking my way,

Don’t get excited because I’m not missing you,

Maybe it’s the fact I’m here alone,

Yet trying to find support is something I won’t do,

The reason why I’ve ran away from home,


Crying in my hands,

Soaking the sands,

Shadowing the lands,

My eyes embraced by an ocean,

My mind entangled with a single emotion,

My hair trapped by my pale fingertips,

And all I can taste are the sweet tears on my lips,


I try to neglect what I’ve gotten myself into,

But single moments remind,

And I try to force myself to forget those times,

Leaving it all behind,

Sometimes I watch myself crying in the mirror,

Following the tears down my face,

And when I turn away I realise the horror,

My crinkled mind, and a bitter taste,


Crying in my hands,

Soaking the sands,

Shadowing the lands,

My eyes embraced by an ocean,

My mind entangled with a single emotion,

My hair trapped by my pale fingertips,

And all I can taste are the sweet tears on my lips,


Will I finally realise?

Will I finally open my eyes?

Is the truth as hidden as it seems?

Maybe those nightmares have just been normal dreams?

Sweet tears on my lips…

Unwanted Compliments

To all those people who have ever regretted lieing. And yes, I mean everybody. My inspiration was just...private. Tom.


Unwanted Compliments

Swallowing my own pride,

Deciding to walk behind,

You, your friends and everyone else,

Is there anything of myself left?


Withheld truths I try to hide,

Memories of the times we lied,

Right now, right here, I feel alone,

Regretting you, and all I own,


I’m just sick of everybody smiling,

Sick of acting like that guy,

Who everybody seems to look for,

Unable to see through my lie,

And of his armour, lies sweet nothings,

And anything included dents,

But the cause of his destruction,

Is of unwanted compliments,


Realising my mistakes,

Though understand just how late,

And before action can be taken,

Another action is mistaken,


Once again it stays with me,

Creating who I am to be,

And I’m too scared to face to face,

With the enemy I choose to embrace and,


The things I do behind the curtains,

The things I say behind my lips,

The choices I refuse to take on,

When I there settled on my fingertips…


I’m just sick of everybody smiling,

Sick of acting like that guy,

Who everybody seems to look for,

Unable to see through my lie,

And of his armour, lies sweet nothings,

And anything included dents,

But the cause of his destruction,

Is of unwanted compliments,

Watching Death

Watching Death:

Like black smoke grasping at your neck,

Awakening to check, (to check)

Blood stains, like paint across your wall,

Waiting for you to fall, (to fall)

That single moment you never see,


The character you don’t want to be,

The knife that stands on end in fear,

The person who won’t shed a tear


The man who watches as you walk,

The chills you get each time he talks,

The smell that lingers in his presence,

The words he always seems to reference…


Never-ending, always descending,

An unknown eye upon the defending,

Watching death with your closed eyes,

Only realising where when he dies,


Throughout time, you’ll never see,

How death is watching over me,


With shadows, that stay dry in the rain,

Avoiding endless pain (the pain)

Lost time is swallowed by the night,

Wronging what seems right (seems right)


Losing what seems rightly done,

Losing honour to become,

Losing Life to re instate,

Losing love replaced by hate,


Gaining powers you can’t control,

Gaining pain but losing soul,

Gaining eyes which watch in fear,

Gaining there but losing here…


Never-ending, always descending,

An unknown eye upon the defending,

Watching death with your closed eyes,

Only realising where when he dies,

Throughout time, you’ll never see,

How death is watching over me,

How death is watching over me,


And you…

I'm Lost


This wasn't really inspired by anything just a spark of imagination and a little thought came into the idea and I went from there. I hope you enjoy:


I'm Lost:


Tropical palms open, grass begins colouring itself,

Painted upon the texture, what’s all this happiness about?

Ocean’s as clean as paper, wood is as smooth as it could be,

Though with all this positive output, sitting alone that would be me,


Hidden beneath the light,

Lies memories of the night,

The darkness swallows me whole…


And even when I try to escape,

Bombarded and trapped in this place,

The darkness swallows me whole…


I’m Lost, my soul crushed like grain,

And even in the sun, I’m trapped in this rain,

Alone and engulfed by all this sadness,

I feel so ashamed and embraced by madness,

But at what cost,

I’m Lost,


People arrive excited, prepared for the wonder and the joy,

Yet the mystery goes unsolved, the mystery of this lonely boy,

They dance and they sing, without a care in the world,

Though ongoing terror, his life been crashed and burned,


Captured without a reason,

Entangled within his treason,

The darkness swallows him whole…


Lying about how they treat him,

Starve him, leave him, beat him,

The darkness swallows him whole…


I’m Lost, my soul crushed like grain,

And even in the sun, I’m trapped in this rain,

Alone and engulfed by all this sadness,

I feel so ashamed and embraced by madness,

But at what cost,

I’m Lost,


Locked in a cell,

My own personal hell,


The darkness swallows me whole…

Superman

The title speaks for the inspiration. Sorry its been a while, hope you enjoy.

I might not wear a cape,

So what if I can’t die,

I’m just a normal being,

A being who can fly,


And what If I can see you,

When you’re not even there,

Doesn’t matter if I’ll burn you,

With a single depressed stare.


Because the truth that’s hidden behind the shadows,

The realisation you haven’t seen,

My powers are only a certain degree,

Of who and what I’ve been,


So as a soar through the skies,

Regretting all my lies,

All the powers you think I can,

But without you,

I’m no superman…


While you stand both in awe,

Horrified at me,

Don’t you realise the truth,

The truth you cannot see,


Open up your eyes,

Look deeper inside,

Apart from kryptonite,

You’re the reason I hide,


Because the reason of which, the final conclusion,

Each time that we touch,

I feel my power drained, I’m hung over by my confusion,

But it’s a broken clutch,


So as a soar through the skies,

Regretting all my lies,

All the powers you think I can,

But without you,

I’m no superman…


And as the wind pounds my face,

And as my heart begins to race,

And though a mission has been set,

It’s you I can’t forget…


So as a soar through the skies,

Regretting all my lies,

All the powers you think I can,

But without you,

I’m no superman…

Fate

Hey, its been more than a week, Sorry, I've been having some...writers block. Anyway, this song is inspired by both the goings on in my life and those around me, and the song 'Storm' by Lifehouse. Hope you enjoy, its a little off as usual, so sorry.


Fate:

I tower alone, briefly woken by the waves,

Dreams interrupted, ending the ship of fate,

And as I lie here awake, asking what went wrong,

Alone in the dark, trying to move along,


Yet every time I move, or try to get back up,

I fall onto my knees, and wish I could,

Save her,


Though however I attempt it, fearless, strong or brave,

It’s power is extensive, impossible to save,

Fate is a mere object, the source with a storm,

A powerful opponent, a shapeless painful form,


A grip that appears forceful is truthfully so weak,

The sun loses it colour, reformed to be so bleak,

The power of the wind, the un-controlling roar,

Each single piece of detail as I draw near the door,


Yet, every step goes forward, the exit moves away,

This hell that I’ve been thrown in, will never go away,

The pain,


Though however I attempt it, fearless, strong or brave,

Its power is extensive, impossible to save,

Fate is a mere object, the source within a storm,

A powerful opponent, a shapeless painful form,


As I lie here, the cold wooden planks beneath me,

The numb endless feeling, it’s warm yet I’m freezing,

It’s all to be, the end for me,


Though however I attempt it, fearless, strong or brave,

Its power is extensive, impossible to save,

Fate is a mere object, the source within a storm,

A powerful opponent, a shapeless painful form,


Hearing the wind, screaming out my name,

Clenching my fists, hurting myself again,

Yet inside, this hurricane blows me away,

The pain is so immense, yet I wish I could stay,


‘Cos the pain is so immense, yet I wish, I wish, I wish I could stay…


Though however I attempt it, fearless, strong or brave,

Its power is extensive, impossible to save,

Fate is a mere object, the source within a storm,

A powerful opponent, a shapeless painful form,

Time is my enemy

Okay, well a change in inspiration for a while. This song is just a lazy thought which had been floating in my head, and I thought I'd put it down to paper before the day ends. I have, and i'm posting it. Thanks for reading:


Time is my enemy:


Unpack that suitcase; bring back your tears,

Release the anger, and re-hide the fears,

Stop feeling lonely, let loose that pain,

Let me embrace you in the winter rain,


Forget my cruel words, ignore my flaws,

Cleanse away memories, re-lock those doors,

Look into my eyes, like you used to do

Begin to love me, like you used to…


Because, I wish you’d just forget it all,

Like a faded memory,

And I wish you’d sweep my fatal flaw,

It’s something I don’t want to be,


But the truth is too strong,

And it’s been far too long,

Time won’t let me be,

It’s my enemy.


Accept my sorrow, pretend you didn’t see,

Going behind your back, a crazy mistake by me,

But all that I ask for, is for you to know,

I’ll fall apart if, you decide to go,


I’m selfish, I’m worthless, I’m nothing anymore,

You were my structure, without you I’ll fall,

Kissing that other meant nothing to me,

You know I’m lieing, as times my enemy,


Because, I wish you’d just forget it all,

Like a faded memory,

And I wish you’d sweep my fatal flaw,

It’s something I don’t want to be,


But the truth is too strong,

And it’s been far too long,

Time won’t let me be,

It’s my enemy.


And now as I stand here, and watch as you leave,

I realised my damage was the punishment I’d receive,

Tear from your eyelid, stain my broken heart,

But what hurts the most, is the fact that I tore us apart


Because, I wish you’d just forget it all,

Like a faded memory,

And I wish you’d sweep my fatal flaw,

It’s something I don’t want to be,


But the truth is too strong,

And it’s been far too long,

Time won’t let me be,

It’s my enemy.

Since your wedding day

Hey, it know it's been a while since I've posted anything, but hey, thats life. Hope you all had a happy new year, and hope you like these lyrics. They are inspired by yet another Smallville episode, when Lana and Lex get married. Unfortunately for Clark Kent, who loves Lana, he can't stop this. 'Since your wedding day', brought to you by Tomjackfox.


Since your wedding day:

You promised me, a single vow of your devotion

Mrs to be, I thought you’d stay with that emotion,

Lost in your thoughts, I realised I was the prime target,

Since your wedding day, my minds been set on trying to forget


Because, it hurts so much, a searing pain,

As I watched him take you again,

I couldn’t bare to stand and watch you,

It left me weak, when you said I do…


Our final kiss, your message deep within,

Within your lips, an unwanted leap within,

Your final words, your final chance to leave me burdened,

A joke to me, successfully aim to leave me hurtened, (New word!)


Because, it hurts so much, a searing pain,

As I watched him take you again,

I couldn’t bare to stand and watch you,

It left me weak, when you said I do…


What have you done? The truth I told,

I dream at night, that what you hold,

Is more than I, can fight or stand,

This lie I’ve kept, is my demand,


Here I stand, behind your dress,

Revealing beauty I must confess,

Your honest smile, your truth less grin

This time I lose, slyly he wins,


Because, it hurts so much, a searing pain,

As I watched him take you again,

I couldn’t bare to stand and watch you,

It left me weak, when you said I do…


Your car drives by, you look back at me in my confusion,

Tears from your cheeks, tell me this isn’t the real conclusion,

A final chance, will re-appear in this mist of dawned emotion,

I understand, lets fix this crack in your devotion,


Because,


It hurts so much, a searing pain,

But I tell you, she’ll be mine again,

As I watched you take her, it left me torn apart,

But I promise you,

Next time, it’ll be your heart…
