Some songs - Lyrics

[PhyschoPotato]

I think these are OK in this forum. Unless it's solely dedicated to prose? Anyawy here are some songs I wrote. I can't judge myself and I just need some unbiased opinions on whether this stuff is actually anywhere near decent.

 

Note that most of it is very rough and unrefined. Just stuff I've thrown down and not crafted into a finished song.

 

 

minds change what has been

 

to change the idea that your face is the same

as it was when i first saw you seven years ago

and to change the thought that everytime that i fought

for just a two second glance that you'd ever love me

wanting the past to be the way i remember it to be

but if it was ever the way i wanted it to be

i wouldn't be thinking these things and i wouldn't be writing these songs

my heart wants to feel like it feels like you feel that you love me

whoever you are

 

i can make my sight see four times more

if i see so much i can get it right just one time

chances don't come everyday, they come when they're in the way

and even then i do eveything i can to avoid having my say

to say where we're taken by future's blinding line

only further away, further away everyday

the summer bends around the earth and the birth

of a distance that's more than it's worth at this pace

and i can cover myself just incase

it all collapses down from high above

but if it does it will only collapse around me

make a ring around me and god

god, i hope that i never have to see you again

 

 

Rae

 

walking through or sailing out

into this sea of silence

where the only thing that's speaking

is fake plastic yellow

just like everything else I've seen

the same as everything minus you

cut form gold slow and shining

shimmering in the darkness

liquids turn to solids

but this sea just isn't cold enough

 

watching flowers slowly blooming

waiting for their leaves to float off

and reveal something smaller

something i can understand

and hope to be with for all time

because it's simple

and there's nothing more i can do

to help its f*cked up situation

where it's falling back to pieces

from a state never completed

 

warm breezy summer's days

are still coated in thick snow

and the brightest daylight hours

become blinded by the streetlights

time never goes the right way

the way it's supposed to go

just slowly edging closer

to the painful cut off point

where even night is void of streetlights

and you and i will never see again

 

 

Tracks

 

i wish i was more interesting than i am

and i wish i could think of things to say

that would stay for longer than a day

anything that would make you smile and say

 

i wish my coat was gold for you

and i wish i could be your only lamb

i try to stop you from loving me for what i am

the truth is harder than lying, so i don't give a damn

anymore

 

i think our fates are all the same

they're scattered dots upon a page

it's just the pattern isn't clear to us all

we could see it anyway we want

but the picture's still the same

 

i wish the view was more beautiful

green hills with trees gently causing the wind to shake

bending and moving into the shapes your body makes

a view i could watch forever a view time couldn't take

 

i wish that time moved forward faster than it does

every day i can see ice slowly forming

half the time i'm dreaming, the oceans are freezing

and then i can walk around the earth

back to where i was before

 

i think our fates are all the same

they're scattered dots upon a page

it's just the pattern isn't clear to us all

we could see it anyway we want

but the picture's still the same
