Illusion
I see her, walking down the street
Getting closer, closer to me
My heart, the damn thing starts to beat
Then I stop and think:
She will forget me
These fucking lies, this summer romance
It’s an illusion, it's tearing me apart
I hate the way it all passes me by
But I’m not strong enough
To go and get it
She smiles, and I think maybe this is it
Maybe this is my day
She looks over my shoulder,
My beat it starts to skip
Fool to think it was me
These stinging truths, I hate them so much
Illusion, and it's tearing me apart
I hate the way it all passes me by
But I’m not strong enough
To go and get it
Not strong enough
I’m not strong enough
Too strong to admit it
I’m strong enough
I’m strong enough, no
WHAT A GODDAMN LIE
These fucking lies, unrequited romance
Fool to think I ever stood a chance
I’m standing at the corner
She passes and is outta sight forevermore
Forevermore
She’s gone…
Lyrics to a song I'm writing. If you want a rough idea of the rythm, fitting the words into a Pearl Jam style pattern works pretty well, its the kind of style I'm going for. Call it emo if you want, I dont give a shit, honestly, because I know what I'm doing and don't care what other people label it. That being said, comments of any kind will be appreciated, naturally.
Not about anything specific. Just felt angry so I wrote an angry song.
Cross posted to my own journal. I posted it there because like Claire said, its been too quiet around here lately. I'll cross post anything I write to both until we get people actually coming and looking at our stuff like we used to, try and get an audience back up.
EDIT: On the advice of a friend, most of the swearing is gone and the song is slightly changed. I think it scans better this way and sounds a little less try hard.
