Just lyrics.

A Poem by C K.
"

Of course it's aimed at teenagers. Girls mostly, guys depending on the levels of smitten.

"

Do you understand a word I say
When I say it doesn't matter An y way?
WE's a difficult concept
but I guess I could make it work
if I tried.
Through such inexperienced eyes
WE seems to falter,
and shatter.

So crash down with love songs
and light up with tears
'Cause me and my new heart
Have fortune to fear.
I've never known more
than what I do now,
But all these ideas I just can't let them out.

These girls are the object of every boys heart,
but only from a distance,
'cause songs aren't made for statues.
And statues were never made for songs.

Pop punk and indie's as much as they are
Side partings and leggings are all that they'll be -
It's useless to dress like you're something you're not
but you could at least dress like you're something.

So crash down with love songs
and light up with tears
'Cause me and my new heart
Have fortune to fear.
I've never known more
than what I do now,
But all these ideas I just
 can't
 let
 them
 out.

If I walked straighter,
Sang higher,
Thought less and danced,
Would you maybe include me
In one of your (lowgradeshittylittle) songs?
If I walked straighter,
Sang higher,
Thought less and danced?
Would you maybe love me more.

So switch off the love songs and wipe up the tears, 'cause me and my new heart have NOTHING to fear, I've never known more, than what I do now,
and all those ideas
I'm just gonna
let
them


out.

Well. I've got a new song planned out, the tune's already fitted, that's why some bits are broken up. Just wanted to see where it stands on the literary side of things ;)

I think the SOME of the lines in the versus's are a little too scattered in my opinion but the chorus..the chorus is fantastic! That's what drew me into the song and the way you changed it around in the end to be an empowering moment was wonderful. I like it a lot :) Great job.

OHMYGOSHREALLYOUCHAMAZINGANDFANTASTIC why didn't you alert me to these lyrics before??? You said you'd written some like this but didn't say they were so amazing! WHY haven't we used these in a song before? The chorus-type-thing is fantastic.

'These girls are the object of every boys heart,
but only from a distance,
'cause songs aren't made for statues.
And statues were never made for songs.'
And i really, really love this ^
And I don't care if you think all your lyrics appear to be hormone-fuelled rants because if they come up with this then :o They hae so much more relevance to everything than rainbow shoes and bloody biscuit-passing.
Write more.

love you :)
