Bi-Weekly writing topics: 2/20/08 (posting late oops) Every other week a new list of topics will be put up for anyone who is interested in using them as a writing prompt. Participation is not mandatory. Write as many or as few as you want. Skip them all if you'd like. Write when you are inspired. Whatever works best for you. There will be a post for member's suggestions
here. Have a song, picture, quote, or whatever that you'd like to have included in the writing topics? Comment with them and I'll add them in the next update. Completed prompts should be posted in
hp_random. If you write several short drabbles and wish to make one post with them that is fine. If you wish to make several individual posts that is fine too. If you are not a member of
hp_random and one or more of the topics speak to you by all means take it and use it for your journal. The key is to have fun with it.
Thanks to Tonks mun for her help with topics and getting things tagged. If you want to see previous topic lists click

Just shut up
Shut up [3x]
Shut it up, just shut up
Shut up
Just shut up
Shut up [3x]
Shut it up, just shut up
[Chorus]
We try to take it slow
But we're still losin' control
And we try to make it work
But it still isn't the worst
And I'm craaazzzy
For tryin' to be your laaadddy
I think I'm goin' crazy
Girl, me and you were just fine (you know)
We wine and dine
Did them things that couples do when in love (you know)
Walks on the beach and stuff (you know)
Things that lovers say and do
I love you boo, I love you too
I miss you a lot, I miss you even more
That's why I flew you out
When we was on tour
But then something got out of hand
You start yellin' when I'm with my friends
Even though I had legitimate reasons (bull shit)
You know I have to make them evidence (bull shit)
How could you trust our private lives girl
That's why you don't believe my lies
And quit this lecture
[Chorus]
Why does he know she gotta move so fast
Love is progress if you could make it last
Why is it that you just lose control
Every time you agree on takin' it slow
So why does it got to be so damn tough
Cuz fools in lust could never get enough of love
Showin' him the love that you be givin'
Changing up your livin'
For a lovin' transition
Girl lip so much she tryin' to get you to listen
Few mad at each other has become our tradition
You yell, I yell, everybody yells
Got neighbors across the street sayin'
“Who the hell?!?”
Who the hell?
What the hell's going down?
Too much of the bickering
Kill it with the sound and
[Chorus]
Girl our love is dyin'
Why can't you stop tryin'
I never been a quitah
But I do deserve betta
Believe me I will do bad
Let's forget the past
And let's start this new plan
Why? Cuz it's the same old routine
And then next week I hear them scream
Girl I know you're tired of the things they say
You're damn right
Cuz I heard them lame dame excuses just yesterday
That was a different thing
No it ain't
That was a different thing
No it ain't
That was a different thing
It was the same damn thing
Same ass excuses
Boy you're useless
Whhoooaaaa
[Chorus]
Stop the talking baby
Or I start walking baby
Is that all there is [repeat]
http://www.sendspace.com/file/v9xupr I am a lone wolf
I always was and will be
I feel fine, I am resigned to this
I am a lone wolf
I am a lone wolf
Got my cares
Wrapped up all nice and neat
In my suitcase
I’ll take it down the street
To a place with plenty of space for me
I am a lone wolf
I am a lone wolf
It blows my mind
That people wanna try to get inside my tired head
I am a lone wolf
I am a lone wolf
I am a lone wolf
Nobody needs to get too close to me
You’ll only see this truth
I am a lone wolf
http://www.sendspace.com/file/s9hpw2 If you, if you could return
Don't let it burn,don't let it fade
I'm sure I'm not being rude
But it's just your attitude
It's tearing me apart
It's ruining everything
I swore, I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand
Is that the way we stand
Were you lying all the time
Was it just a game to you
CHORUS:
But I m in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to let it linger
Oh, I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
But I was wrong, but I was wrong
If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't be so confused
And I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you
http://www.sendspace.com/file/xlxzij cmon cmon cmon tell me your name
I think we spent a past life together
Cmon cmon cmon tell me your name
I think we spent a past life together
So good to see you again
Anytime I feel the rush
I might say something to make you blush
When all the way is not enough
Some might say my love will make you blush
I don’t I don’t I don’t want nothing back
I wanna love you like the sun loves you
I don’t I don’t I don’t want nothing back
I wanna love you like the sun loves you
I bet you’ve never been loved like that
Anytime I feel the rush
I might say something to make you blush
When all the way is not enough
Some might say my love will make you blush
So walk away and act tough
When I say something to make you blush
Cos always I not enough
Some might say my love will make you blush
Cos I know
It’s cold
So stand firm
And be bold
I know
It burns
So hold tight
And stand firm
Cos hurt is the question
Cos hurt is the question
Cos hurt is the question
Cos hurt is the question
And love is the answer
And love is the answer
And love is the answer
And love is the answer
Anytime I feel the rush
I might say something to make you blush
When all the way is not enough
Some might say my love will make you blush
So walk away and act tough
When I say something to make you blush
Cos always I not enough
Some might say my love will make you blush
My love will make you blush
http://www.sendspace.com/file/7vf6o8 even now the world is bleedin' but feelin' just fine all numb
in our castle where we're always free to choose never free enough
to find i wish somethin' would break cuz we're runnin' out of time
and i am overcome i am overcome holy water in my lungs i am overcome
these women in the street pullin' out their hair my master's
in the yard givin' light to the unaware this plastic little place
is just a step amongst the stairs
and i am overcome i am overcome baby holy water in my lungs i am overcome
so drive me out out to that open field turn the ignition off
and spin around your help is here but i'm parked in this open space
blockin' the gates of love
i am overcome i am overcome holy water in my lungs i am overcomed
beautiful drowning this beautiful drowning this holy water
this holy water is in my lungs
and i am overcome i am overcome i am overcome i am overcome
