Songwriting

So, any of you ever write songs?

This is a song I just wrote tonight:

Don’t Worry

Built up in your mind
Are always things you want to hide
Fear: just takes over you
And, then you don’t know what to do

Think about it right
Don’t let it stay
Just let it go
Right away

So don’t worry, don’t worry
Everything is gonna be fine
I say, don’t worry, don’t worry
Just take control of your mind
Just be yourself, be who you are
And never change for anyone
Don’t worry, don’t worry
And welcome to your life

The sun is shining in the sky
Music is playing in my mind
On a new road to destiny
Perfection is here for me

Keep it in your mind
Never forget
And always remember

Don’t worry, don’t worry
Everything is gonna be fine
I say, don’t worry, don’t worry
Just take control of your mind
Just be yourself, be who you are
And never change for anyone
Don’t worry, don’t worry
And welcome to your life

This is who I am
This is what I like,
Somehow I have realised
That this is me, until the end of time

Don’t worry, don’t worry
You can come out of your hide
Don’t worry, don’t worry
Listen to what is inside
Just be yourself, be who you are
And never change for anyone
Don’t worry, don’t worry
This is your life.

Another song

This is the more, “teen angst” sorta type 😉

Eventually

Standing up tall with the world at my feet
For a while, I just thought I was defeat
I always had to think hard about what to say
I was Always wishing for a brand new day

It may have taken time, but I knew I could make it
You made me feel small, but now I’m standing tall
Time to spread my wings and fly

I may not be perfect
May not be so cool
I thought you were my friend
But you treat me like a fool
You hurt me but I stood up
Got back on my way and now
I’ve made it, Eventually.

Everyone I love, is with me in my heart
My life has changed, became a better start
I will never look back on what you did
Because it hurts to think how I felt.

You thought you had defeated me
Thought I had lost my game
But I hate you and don’t need you
You’re just so stupid and so vain

I may not be perfect
May not be so cool
I thought you were my friend
But you treat me like a fool
You hurt me but I stood up
Got back on my way and now
I’ve made it, Eventually.

OS…im not actually a big fan of coldplay, i preffer metal and screamo music

but i find that if im having a tough time, i write how i feel and most times it turns into a song

just the way i de stress really

Yes, I realise that my anti Coldplay stance could be read as anti you 3. It wasn’t and if it made offence it wasnee meant to. I totally realise that, for example, you can’t sing the Blues unless your inside looking out. Some of the worlds best songs have been written when such crap-in-life has been captured by the written word.
Coldplay are still **it though. G’night.

Bloomin NORA.
You are all suffering from Coldplay itus.

She’s left me, it’s all shyte, no future, nobody loves me, I’ll commit suicide, it’s all gone yellow, i’m in pain (Yawn!).
No wonder some touth of today are topping themselves!
Colplay, the most over-rated group the UK has ever produced. How they made any money is beyond rationale. There are actual musicians out there that are skint, and this lot are rich…sheesh.

Wake-up rant over, time for a pint of tea and half a tube of Rich Tea biscuits! In bed!

this one i wrote for a friend of myne who died a few months ago on a motorway in scotland, i mentioned him in the flight sim forum once

titled RIP James

theres a hole, where you once were, youve gone,
all thats left is an empty space, what happened out there?
what happened to you…i suppose it was just that time
taken like a 10 pound note, what a bargain for your life

this life can be so fatal, maybe its a game
you need to learn to control it before your taken away

Beat This Life, Beat This Game, Or It Will Only Cause you pain

all your friends miss you, all your organs deserted you

Beat This Life, Beat This Game, Or It Will Only Cause you pain

maybe you were a lesson to the rest of us, everything happens for a reason

what reason was yours?

ill see you in the sky my friend…keep me a rank reserved, im coming very soon

i tend to jot down lyrics when im upset or Pi$$ed off, this one i wrote last year i believe, my mate added a few lyrics to the bottom too

this danger, its hurting me
this risk, its taunting me
do i, dont i, will i,wont i
f**k this ****..f**k this pain
my life is just a long god damn game

if it happens it happens…but my life wont be broken
like my heart…that i left so f**kin stupidly open
i pass everyone like ghost’s and shut them all out
i wither, and decay
not knowing a thing
my life just spins by day after day
the things i know, the things i dont
nothing matters here anymore

if it happens it happens…but my life wont be broken
like my heart…that i left so f**kin stupidly open
i pass everyone like ghost’s and shut them all out

time passes fast, as i sit still
i wonder things, that make me ill
they treat me like s**t, i feel like idont belong
that why i knew, everything would go wrong
