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…

Helpless Lies

Merry Christmas everybody. I hope you've got everything you've wanted, and that you have a happy new year. Well, anyway, this song was inspired by a number of different things. The actual lyrics were inspired by SMALLVILLE, another obsession of mine, the connection between Lana and Clark in Season 5 if you've ever watched it. The Music is very mellow and slow, which was inspired by Lifehouse's 'Storm', from their new album 'Who We Are'.


Helpless Lies:

I see between your hidden lines, I understand your pain,

And yet all the times I’ve saved you, I’m the one that you blame,

I apologise the hundredth time, for something I didn’t do,

You don’t reply, then I realise, that’s the end of me and you.


You turn around, without a word, and leave me by myself,

My eyes rotate to your picture, hanging from the shelf,

Your smile, your eyes, all perfect pieces, equalities are pure,

But then I realise the truth, you can’t take it anymore,


Too many times, I’ve lied to you,

No reasonable answer for things that I do,

You face me with questions, I don’t answer straight,

Resulting in the reason your heart so often break


Things just aren’t that easy, indefinitely a flaw,

That’s the reason I don’t stop you, when you walk out my door,

I’m too caught up in your protection, but I don’t want to let you go

But it’s far to dangerous for someone like you to know,


I watch you from the window, tears embedded on your cheek,

And even though I’m a hero, your tears make me weak,

I cannot bare to stand there, and watch you loose your grip,

Your heart is broken, your hands are shaking, and so is your bottom lip,


Too many times, I’ve lied to you,

No reasonable answer for things that I do,

You face me with questions, I don’t answer straight,

Resulting in the reason your heart will break


I sit solemnly, left in the darkness of my heart,

Lingering over the fact, it was her I had torn apart,

The one person I love, the one I needed to save,

Yet this time I’d fallen, too hurt to be strong or brave,

Rest In Peace

I've finished for Christmas thank god, and what better way to celebrate than put two great, happy mooded Smallville episodes on! WRONG! The two I watched were depressing, but gave me an idea to write a song. Dedicated to Smallville episodes 'Redemption' and 'Vengeance', here is 'Rest in Peace'.


Rest in Peace:

Sometimes I mourn, sometimes I cry,

But I know, you’re always by my side,

That losing streak, you’re turn to go,

I wish you’d stay another day


To handle this, is beyond me,

Your picture always pops up in my mind,

Each piece of you falls into place,

This makes it even harder to embrace,


Your Tender touch, your warming kiss,

Each property increases doing this,

And every time, I think of you,

I’m left in tears, not knowing what to do,


Knelt by your grave, alone and dark,

The single words scribed on your parch,

The bright coloured flowers, express your mind,

I pray to God, that someday I’ll find…you.


It time to move, it’s been to long,

I’ve left my life, and that seems wrong,

You’ll always be there, on top of my head,

But you’ve got to move on from the dead,


Your Tender touch, your warming kiss,

Each property increases doing this,

And every time, I think of you,

I’m left in tears, not knowing what to do,


I’ll leave you now, to rest in peace,

I hope you realise, just how it seems,

My love’s still strong; you can count on that,

We’ll meet someday, I’ll promise you…that…


(Slower)

Your Tender touch, your warming kiss,

Each property increases doing this,

And every time, I think of you,

I’m left in tears, not knowing what to do,


I’m left in tears not knowing what to do…

No Snow

Hey again, today in School, a friend told me that making a Christmas song would probobly be a good idea. But, of course, Instead of it being all festive and cheery, I've decided to moan at the fact that in England, we get hardly any snow. Which, is true, because, we suck in the whole 'weather department'. Anyway, here it is. The melody is a little iregular, but I hope you enjoy anyhow.

No Snow:

Time after time, pavements are empty,

And each step I take, I realise just how dull,

You can become, (Oh,Oh,Oh)

With no snow,


The rain washes away the chances,

And even with a speck of the white,

It’ all left behind, (Oh,Oh,Oh)

With no snow,


And as the white crystals from up above,

Fall down upon my face,

I stand their looking up,

Taking these few seconds, to embrace

But then it times to go,

Because there is no snow,


No footprints in the floor,

Barely anything,

Anything at all,

And yet, I can feel it hitting my skin,

But because it’s so thin,

Sadness it will cause so,

With no snow,


Year after year, the chances are weaker

Because as each second passes, the world gets bleaker


No-one seems to realise, how important this can be,

That lack of single snow flakes,

Leaves nothing there for me,

And that’s because, (Oh,Oh,Oh)

There’s just no snow…

Empty Spaces

I was influenced by something I read in a book at School, ages ago. I came to my mind when walking home, and with that, I decided to write a poem. Well, it began as a Poem but it could become something more. Anyway, here is is, it isn't alot but:

Empty Spaces :

Empty spaces, implanted in the chamber of my mind,

Waiting for the right type of your kind,

To come along,

Long way,


Lonely pavements, the slight pitter patter of your feet,

My eyes tend to follow you down that street,

Each look back you take,

I smile,


Flashing streetlamps, enlighten that glow taped on your face,

Attracts me, then stands me in my place,

To stand there and stare,

At you,


Sense of silence, both eyes firmly fixed upon your own,

Hoping you won’t turn and go home,

And leave me to wish,

You’ll come back,


One step forward, a slight tender movement that I see,

Hopefully directed towards me,

I wish and I wait,

For you,


Approaching slowly, I reach out and take her by the hand,

Pull her closer, there we stand,

Both of our lips,

So close,


My heart flutters, I begin to lose my sense of right,

Pull you closer, hold you tight,

Our lips interlink,

Like one,


Huge explosions, the deepness my heart travels into,

My blood begins boiling, just for you,

You’ve blessed me with love,

Thankyou,
