songs turned into poems

I write songs. I turned them into poems. I write poems. Sometimes I turn them into songs. I look around and I turn life and love and fandom into songs and into poems.

Your Pain Is Mine

I wish I could take your pain away With something as simple as a kiss With something as fleeting as bliss I wish I could rip it off of your heart With a simple motion of my hands With a few soothing words

Those scars and those wounds I'll kiss them all, love them all After all, they are you Just like your hair and your lips If I love those, I can love any piece of you

I wish I could take it away and hide Somewhere you would never find Somewhere so, so far from your body I wish there's was something I could do Instead of waiting for it to heal Instead of letting it eat you

I'll blow the candles and wish for it to be gone I wish it was this easy I'll make a wish upon the stars to let you free I wish it was this facile  I'll yell to whatever deity that will hear my pray I wish it was possible

At War

We are at war, we are at war You play so gently, you play so rough The world's a battlefield and so is love You kiss my lips and I forget Everything you did to make me mad You smirk and is so annoying How it melts my heart and makes me smile Every day I'm with you, I'm glad But you drive me mad, you drive me mad

This is not a cold war I brought my guns, you brought your guns We are ready to get hurt You push me to the edge You call me danger But you're dangerous too Don't shoot me, I can't hurt you

At war and love, everything is fair I play so cold, but I'm burning hot My heart doesn't respect borders It doesn't care where you came from And if I tell it to stop, it doesn't care Just keeps on loving you You're in my thoughts night and day I think I'm going insane Every day with me makes you glad But I drive you mad, I drive you mad

This is not a cold war I brought my guns, you brought your guns We are ready to get hurt You push me to the edge You call me danger But you're dangerous too Don't shoot me, I can't hurt you

And this is war, and this is war You call your armies, you load your guns I'm getting ready too It's going to hurt the two But we can't stop, we can't stop We are at war pulling triggers with purpose If the purpose's victory or loss We don't know and we don't care

'Cause this is war, and this is war I brought my guns, you brought yours We are ready to get hurt You push me to the edge You call me danger But you're dangerous too Let's shoot! Let's shoot!

This is not a cold war I brought my guns, you brought yours We are ready to get hurt You push me to the edge You call me danger But you're dangerous too Don't shoot! Don't shoot! 'Cause I can't hurt you

Waiting For Love

At first, we were messing around, fooling ourselves I never thought it would happen to me Never thought I could love like this Then you barged into my life Oh, I never thought I could love like this No one taught me about feeling like this

Tell me you love me Tell me you need me Tell me it will never end And if you don't mean it Lie to me Tell me what I want to hear

If the world turns against you and me I'll punch them all to the ground I was ashamed, now I'm proud You make my heart ache And I want this pain unlike all the others You make me suffer from every beat of my heart

Tell me you love me Tell me you need me Tell me it will never end And if you don't mean it Lie to me Tell me what I want to hear

Never believed in happy endings Such things don't happen to people like you and me Never believed in love at first sight Shit like this doesn't happen to people like me Never believed in the great beyond 'Cause hell is my home Then you barged into my life Oh, I never thought these things would happen to me

Tell me you love me Tell me you need me Tell me it will never end And if you don't mean it Lie to me Tell me what I want to hear

Whatever happens, I'm just waiting Whatever happens, I'm just waiting Whatever happens, I'm just waiting, waiting for you I'm just waiting I'm just waiting I'm just waiting, waiting for you Oh, I never thought I could love like this I'm just waiting I'm just waiting I'm just waiting, waiting for you And if you don't love me Lie to me

The Two Little Selfish Pigs

Blow me a kiss before you close the door After all that has been said and done It's locked behind this door Blow me a kiss before you go on I'll put it on my lips and believe that it's through And forget about you before noon

Blow out, blow out, blow out Burn it down We made love to the sound Of all these straw walls coming down

I'll blow you a kiss before you close the door Promising myself it will be the last one Some things are better when they are done I'll blow you a kiss so you can go on You'll put it on your lips and run Never forgetting how I hurt you

Blow out, blow out, blow out Burn it down We made love to the sound Of all these sticks walls coming down

Blow it down, this haunted house after we're gone There's nothing left here but the pieces You cracked and I wrecked the wall Blow it down, this white fenced dream and go on We tore it apart and now there's none Brick wall standing still or heart not feeling ill

So go on So go on So go on So go... on

Blow out. Burn it down. Blemish the carpet with our blood. Blow out. Burn it down. Bring this whole place to the ground. Blow out. Burn it down. Better leave this place now Before everything crumbles down.

Web Of Lies

Caught in your lies The web of lies you made The cocoon you created to protect yourself From the truths they tell

Everyone sees through These transparent threads But you, but you You're too inside to see the truth So surrounded and comforted by your untruths Caught on your own web of lies Too deep to get out

Dear shepherd's boy, if you yell, if you cry for help Would anyone bother to listen? I don't think so You're on your own Marooned in your cocoon Embracing your lies as if they were true

Unashamedly trapped in your own game The instinct to survive is greater Weaving and spinning and twisting reality Until it is devouring you Hanging yourself with your strings

Dear shepherd's boy, if you yell, if you cry for help Would anyone bother to listen? I don't think so You're on your own Marooned in your cocoon Embracing your lies as if they were true

I supposed that if you can't see through It really seems that everyone is against you But, dear shepherd's boy, you brought this upon yourself

Ah, it's a thick web of lies you made Ah, and the wolf finally came And you better run for your life Because no web of lies can hold against The truth that hides beneath everything

Troublemaker

God and the queen will frame you For your crimes Hell is one step away from the bed You sleep at night Powder and liquor These are your perfumes Sorrow and numbness These are your feelings And if you could watch the whole world burn You'd light the match And spy with your little eyes their agony

Reaper, my old friend, you say Don't take me yet I've got a lot of mayhem Yet to cause They won't know what hit them Troublemaker, that's your name

Bond to laws of nature You're the fittest one Surviving is one of many skills To survive, you could kill anyone The noise makes you blind You only need one voice to serve as a guide Through the dark of night You better say you're sorry Before they bring the truth serum Wouldn't want them to find out That you relish in between the lines

Reaper, my old friend, you say Don't take me yet I've got a lot of mayhem Yet to cause They won't know what hit them Troublemaker, that's your name

Through blood and violence You climbed to the top Only now you see It's a lonely place to be You don't really mind Since you've been alone your whole life You can't really quiet down and lay low Mischief is the land and you're royalty Ready to eat their heads in a silver platter Chaos: the more, the better In their suffering, you thrive

Reaper, my old friend, you say Don't take me yet I've got a lot of mayhem Yet to cause They won't know what hit them Troublemaker, that's your name Yeah, troublemaker Troublemaker Yeah, that's your name

Wheels of Time

Oh, wheels of time Forgive me Allow me to go back To fix everything I broke To glue everything I shattered Allow me to solve this space and time equation Grant me my wish for happiness

Oh, lover Forgive me I am the devil, you told me I ruin and destroy everything I touch But allow me to touch you One more time Grant me my wish for happiness

Oh, death Forgive me Don't take me so soon I haven't done enough damage yet Allow me to stay some more Grant me my wish for happiness

Oh, wheels of time, forgive me Allow me to go back Oh, lover, don't leave me Allow me to be your damnation Oh, death, don't take me Allow me to remain

Oh, wheels of time Grant me my wish for redemption Oh, lover I've solved the equation Oh, death You're not my final destination

Eternally I walk around this Earth Like the devil I am The devil you made me

Eternally I'll walk around this world With you, my lover Who made me the devil I am

Eternally We will deceive death It can't follow us where'll go Because I'm the devil you chose

Force Of Nature

Let me be your rock So when there's a storm I can keep you calm and still Like no one else will

Let me be your river The one to give you a shiver And make you move on easily by the power of my flow So you can never hit your low

I wanna be the force of nature That you'll hold you when you need to be still That will help you fly when you need to go high I wanna be all you need to be happy

Let me be your hurricane To drive you insane And make sure you can go back to your peaceful State of mind when you need to

Let me be your earthquake The one who can shake you out of bed Even on the bluest mornings of the bluest days

I wanna be the force of nature That you'll hold you when you need to be still That will help you fly when you need to go high I wanna be all you need to be happy

Let me be your earth and wind and fire and water Let me be your moon and sun and stars Let me be the force of nature That will change your life Let me be the force of nature That will change you

I wanna be the force of nature That you'll hold you when you need to be still That will help you fly when you need to go high I wanna be all you need to be happy

Promises of Beginners

I never told you that I was afraid of the dark I promise you to never turn off the lights I never told you that I was falling apart I promise you to hold you tight I never told you that I was haunted by ghosts of the past I promise you to accept all of your demons I never told you that I was scared of giving in too fast I promise you to be there, season after season

And if I never told you And if I ever break these promises Doesn't mean that I don't trust you Doesn't mean I stopped loving you It just means that I was afraid It just means that I'm human

I never told you that I don't want to hold hands I promise you to let you walk by yourself I never told you that I come from Badlands I promise you to follow you through hell I never told you that I dream about bad things I promise you to wake you when you need it I never told you that I don't know some things I promise you to learn without you having to tell me

And if I never told you And if I ever break these promises Doesn't mean that I don't trust you Doesn't mean I stopped loving you It just means that I was afraid It just means that I'm human

And if we are together I believe things will be better And if we lose ourselves I believe we can find each other again And when it comes to an end I believe we still can be friends And if... What if? Who would know the answer?

Future's a mystery A billion possibilities And in every one, I would like to be with you And if... What if? Who would know the answer? Not me. Not you. Nobody.

Well, Hello

I've been posting but I've made no introduction which tells a lot about me. I don't recall names. Sometimes I forget dates. I mostly don't care for the superficial, the obligatory rules of society. I don't think you can know someone simply by knowing their ages or seeing their faces. I think truthful connection comes from more than what we choose to present of ourselves to the world and I think art - in all its forms - is that window to the inside, that allows us to truly begin to know someone. So, whoever reads this blog is welcome to whatever is going on inside me.

Night Till Dawn

Dark shadows lurking Tears being held inside Never asking for help Old memories surfacing Coming to haunt again

Warmth spreads across the chest It tightens the heart Sweating of hands Not wanting to let go Everything else is fading Even the dark

Sunrise is coming No strength to let go Coming back is a possibility But it's never certain If it is always darkest before the dawn Light bringer this must be

Warmth spreads across the sheets It clenches the fists Touching of hands Not wanting to let go Everything else is fading Even the dark

If heart and brain and soul are just one Then love can't only be a word If this is only an illusion Who would want to rouse? If reality felt like this all the time What would be the use of dreaming at night?

Warmth spreads across the half-light It brightens life Murmuring of words Not wanting to let go Everything else is fading Even the dark Everything else is fading Even the dark Everything else is fading Even you and I

She

The wind blowing against my skin And I'm in her arms smiling Everything sounds perfect In her arms I found joy I found peace, I found me And I'm not afraid Because I know it's not going to end

She found me and she saved me She found me and she loved me She found me and she saved me She found me and she loved me She found me and she left me

The water touches my hair I hear nothing around me I feel nothing except for her Her gentle fingers touching me Reaching for me in the deep Pulling me, saving me I'm reaching the surface

She reached me and she saved me She reached me and she loved me She reached me and she saved me She reached me and she loved me She reached me and she left me

The sun warms my lips and I miss her She's my sun and she's left me in the dark My complexion looks pale without her My days will never be bright again There's a cave where I'm in And she can't reach me here

She touched me and she saved me She touched me and she loved me She touched me and she left me

She left me

She saved me She loved me She left me, she left me

She saved me, loved me, left me She loved me and left me, left me She found me and she lost me

Immortal's Night

Darling, the moonlight's splendid tonight It's calling my name and I'm howling in pain Pain is my business and I always like to mix pleasure with pain Would you like to taste some of that pain? You're going to love it, I promise

Hey, babe, why don't you stay? You know my name Call me any time, any day Hey, babe, why don't you stay? Just for another glass of champagne The night's young and it never dies Just like us

Darling, you've been hunting me And I've been hunting you We don't even know who's the hunter and who's the prey You've been chasing me, chasing death Maybe you can find both Maybe it's all the same If you get tired of the game, call me Let's toast to the good life

Hey, babe, why don't you stay? You know my name Call me any time, any day Hey, babe, why don't you stay? Just for another glass of champagne The night's young and it never dies Just like us

Darling, why do you want to die And leave me behind? Aren't we having fun? Even if you aren't the one I'd like to have you by my side Please, if you like, stay some more time...

Hey, babe, why don't you stay? You know my name Call me any time, any day Hey, babe, why don't you stay? Just for another glass of champagne The night's young and it never dies Just like us Just like us Just like us

Hey, babe, why don't you stay? The night's young and it never dies Just like us Just like us Just like us

Angel Feather

I've cut myself on angel feather It hurts more than paper cuts It cuts deeper and it hurts the most

You're my angel Such a sacred part of me The other half of my now useless heart

If I close my eyes I can see the halo It blinds me so pleasantly I don't mind if I never see again

You're my angel Such a sight to see Beholders only see beauty in it

I can hear the sound of the harp It drives me to a dreamless sleep I could wake up but you won't let me

You're my angel Such a hideous angel You lied to me

You promised me heaven You promised peace You promised it all You gave me only dreamless sleep And pleasant blindness And feather cuts

Oh, and how it hurts! How it hurts! You and your feather cuts!

Wounded Animal

Heal my wounds The self-inflicted The ones caused by other hands Everyone hurts me But you Everything hurts me But you Nowadays your pain is the only thing that hurts me I'll heal your wounds If you heal mine

I've only know dread Mistook it for respect I have the scars to prove Healed wounds Telling my story, shouting my shame I hide them You touched them Said it would never happen again I trust your words

I ain't need no saving But come to save me anyway I ain't need your love But love me anyway I ain't need you But, please, stay

The end of the world Doesn't make me sad 'Cause I found you And I'm keeping you If I lose you I'll lose myself I was told it's a weakness To feel like this Hell, I don't give a shit I'm fine as long as you're with me

I promise to tell you one day Everything you mean to me I'll let you see The wounds I've been hiding Far inside me I'll show you the ones That you didn't see But cured somehow

Take care of my heart Take care of my wings I promise to tell you one day How I gave these to you A long time ago

I ain't need no saving But come to save me anyway I ain't need your love But love me anyway I ain't need you But, please, stay

I ain't the wounded animal I was I ain't that stray you took in I ain't like that anymore

I ain't need no saving But come to save me anyway I ain't need your love But love me anyway I ain't need you But, please, stay

I ain't need a thing from you I ain't need a thing but you I ain't need a thing but you

The Judgment of Osiris

And this heart weights more than a feather And this life is heavier than I thought it would be And this journey always has the same ending And this death is the last thing that will happen to me

Follow your heart Live your life Enjoy where the journey takes you It doesn't matter Death is waiting at the finish line No matter how you lived your life

And this heart weights more than a feather And this life is heavier than I thought it would be And this journey always has the same ending And this death is the last thing that will happen to me

Break your heart Waste your life Regret every path you took It doesn't matter Death is waiting at the finish line No matter how you lived your life

And this heart weights more than a feather And this life is heavier than I thought it would be And this journey always has the same ending And this death is the last thing that will happen to me

Happen to me Happen to you Happen to us all
