I’ll be posting more songs later, for those who want to read them.
Yeahhhhh!
The missing sheep!
Big hug to you!
I can’t wait to read them
Shut out all this pain inside my head
And help me feel your love instead
I need you with me here and now
Don’t leave me here alone
Cause without you you I will drown
I need you more than I need anything else
I need you more than I need life itself
You’re the same yesterday, today, and forevermore
And you’re the key that unlocks the closed door
You are the way, the truth, and the life
And you swallowed up death when you gave us your life
You said, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do
And all we did was laugh and continue to refuse you
But still you were silent and held your peace
And you’re Lord of lords, and King of kings
You are my life
You make me feel complete
You give me all this love
That no one can ever defeat
You know me better than I know myself
You raise me up when I feel like I’m in hell
You take away all this pain and sorrow
And give me hope for a better tomorrow
You’re the same yesterday, today, and forevermore
And you’re the key that unlocks the closed door
You are the way, the truth, and the life
And you swallowed up death when you gave us your life
You said, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do
And all we did was laugh and continue to refuse you
But still you were silent and held your peace
And you’re Lord of lords, and King of kings
No, the pain can’t keep me caged anymore
I’ll take the key and walk right out the door
Straight into your arms I will run
When I see your light shining brighter than the sun
And when I look into your eyes, I’ll feel alive for the first time
I know I’ve overcome the world, I know I survived
You were with me through everything I faced
And now I’m yours because I kept my faith
You’re the same yesterday, today, and forevermore
And you’re the key that unlocks the closed door
You are the way, the truth, and the life
And you swallowed up death when you gave us your life
You said, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do
And all we did was laugh and continue to refuse you
But still you were silent and held your peace
And you’re Lord of lords, and King of kings
(This one is about God of course. Can’t write and not write about what gives me so much hope in the world.)
I’m not like you, no
I’ll never be you
What will it take for you to see
That there is only one real me
Why can’t you understand
It’s my life and I have my own plan
I won’t be told how to live my life
When all you ever tell me are lies
Can’t you see, all I want is to be me
I don’t want to be like you
That’s not something I want to do
Cause then I’d be just as fake as you
So stop wasting time, and stop playing games
Cause you and me will never be the same
I don’t care what you think or say
I’m in control, and I’m living my life today
You suffocate me each day
As you try to run my life
But you should just let go
Cause no one can live my life except me alone
Like it or not, I am my own person
It’s my life to live, this I am most certain
So don’t try to tell me how to live
When we give what we get, and get what we give
Can’t you see, all I want is to be me
I don’t want to be like you
That’s not something I want to do
Cause then I’d be just as fake as you
So stop wasting time, and stop playing games
Cause you and me will never be the same
I don’t care what you think or say
I’m in control, and I’m living my life today
So I’ll say it again, I’ve got my life and you’ve got yours
Let me live mine, and you go live yours
Cause we’re all allowed to choose our own path
And with each step we take
We know there’s no turning back
Can’t you see, all I want is to be me
I don’t want to be like you
That’s not something I want to do
Cause then I’d be just as fake as you
So stop wasting time, and stop playing games
Cause you and me will never be the same
I don’t care what you think or say
I’m in control, and I’m living my life today
I’m not you, no
I’ll never be you
(This song was inspired by LP’s Numb and Nirvana’s Dumb.)
Also, since I haven’t come up with names for either one of these two yet, I was hoping @rickvanmeijel could help, lol. He seems to be one of the best at choosing song names.
Darkness Inside of Me
Can someone help me escape?
Can anyone help me break free?
Can anybody save me
From this darkness inside of me?
It’s killing me with every breath I take
Always reminding me of every mistake I’ve made
I try to forgive myself for all the things I’ve done
But the past is always there
And I’m always left feeling hopeless and scared
I try to fight all the sorrow and madness in my head
But if I’m not careful I’m going to wind up dead
This always feels like it’s too much to take
And it never seems to fade away
As this pain only gets worse everyday
I feel like I’m breaking apart
All that’s left of me are my scars
Can I be put back together?
Or will this pain last forever?
Can someone help me escape?
Can anyone help me break free?
Can anybody save me
From this darkness inside of me?
I’m always screaming inside my head
But no one ever heard me
They only see what’s on the outside instead
I know it’s sick, but I wish they could feel my pain
So they could understand how it feels to hurt this way
Then they would know that this is all too real
And they would know exactly how I feel
I feel like I’m breaking apart
All that’s left of me are my scars
Can I be put back together?
Or will this pain last forever?
Can someone help me escape?
Can anyone help me break free?
Can anybody save me
From this darkness inside of me?
I feel like I’m locked in a cage, and there’s no escape
Day after day goes by, and I think I’m going insane
It never gets better, it only gets worse
Am I lost here forever, only to live this curse
I feel like I’m breaking apart
All that’s left of me are my scars
Can I be put back together?
Or will this pain last forever?
Can someone help me escape?
Can anyone help me break free?
Can anybody save me
From this darkness inside of me?
(I must say, I really like Darkness Inside of Me and Despair a lot already. It’s an interesting process being able to write like this, and I’m really enjoying it.)
Lost
I want you
I need you
I can’t face this pain without you
I can’t make it through life without you
I need you everyday
Without you I’m not ok
If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be alive
Cause so many times I’ve just wanted to die
I don’t know who I am without you
I don’t know what’s real when you’re gone
I can’t trust anyone, they always let me down
They always push me, and all I do is drown
If I can’t have you, then I may as well be dead
Cause you’re what I need, no matter what anyone says
I’m lost without you, can’t you see
I need you so I can find the real me
No one understands why I live this way
Or why I’m always in so much pain
But I know it’s all for your sake
That I must hurt like this everyday
The pain and misery hurt and help me
They both help me become who you want me to be
If I didn’t have them in my life
I wouldn’t have you, and then I couldn’t survive
I don’t know who I am without you
I don’t know what’s real when you’re gone
I can’t trust anyone, they always let me down
They always push me, and all I do is drown
If I can’t have you, then I may as well be dead
Cause you’re what I need, no matter what anyone says
I’m lost without you, can’t you see
I need you so I can find the real me
Help me when the darkness tries to take me
Don’t leave me here to face it alone
No one can heal me but you
You’re the only one who can help me through
I don’t know who I am without you
I don’t know what’s real when you’re gone
I can’t trust anyone, they always let me down
They always push me, and all I do is drown
If I can’t have you, then I may as well be dead
Cause you’re what I need, no matter what anyone says
I’m lost without you, can’t you see
I need you so I can find the real me
sighhhhh
Ain’t gonna do anything to you by saying anything so all I’ll say is to have some self worth
You still haven’t figured it out have you? Let me know when/if you do, I’ll be here.
This so me , I love this great lines here indeed
This one is my favorite
But also really enjoyed the other two
Keep up the good work Charles
I’m waiting for it to be you who wakes
Fanaticism has gotten you nowhere-change it up
Take away the warm and fuzzy and what’s left? Yeeeeeah, I think I’ve got my own ducks in a row haha
Hold on i never knew you had a thread!
I’ll read all of them from the starting!!
Rn i just read the very first one and i loved it… Anything happens, any feeling may affect but love will always affect in positive way, always make us feel better… your writings are beautiful @chigokurosaki I’ll check all of them the very next time I am a lil free spamming here keep writing
Emerge From Darkness
The time has come to break free
It’s time to find the real me
The darkness is trying to stay
But I will make it go away
Soon it will all end
Any my broken heart will finally mend
I will have release from all the pain
And I will be able to breathe again
I can feel the pain deep inside
It cuts through my heart like a knife
And it tries to take my soul
Even though I’m the one who’s in control
It’s always telling me who it wants me to be
Cause it knows what will happen when I break free
So it tries to keep me contained
But it’s already too late
Today I’m escaping from all the pain
My demons can’t control my head or heart
Once I’ve broken away, they can’t tear me apart
It’s up to me whether the pain stays or goes
It’s my choice to make, and mine alone
So I’ll block what’s in my head
And listen to what my heart says instead
If I fall, I’ll get back up again
I’ll continue to fight until the very end
I can feel the pain deep inside
It cuts through my heart like a knife
And it tries to take my soul
Even though I’m the one who’s in control
It’s always telling me who it wants me to be
Cause it knows what will happen when I break free
So it tries to keep me contained
But it’s already too late
Today I’m escaping from all the pain
Go ahead and try to break me
I’ll come back stronger, you will see
You will see all your efforts are pointless
Cause you never had control to begin with
I can feel the pain deep inside
It cuts through my heart like a knife
And it tries to take my soul
Even though I’m the one who’s in control
It’s always telling me who it wants me to be
Cause it knows what will happen when I break free
So it tries to keep me contained
But it’s already too late
Today I’m escaping from all the pain
Thanks man, I’m glad to help you
This song I’d call Now I’m Yours, because the entire thing seems to be about recognising God and how he helps you. With these words you finally acknowledge this.
Numb And Dumb? Kidding of course. I think ‘‘All I Want’’ is a good name, it communicates that great desire that the song describes.
Me and Fran then
I kinda like “Lost” because it has a rhythm that’s very natural. “Darkness Inside of Me” actually feels darker (what I consider ‘dark Chester’ singing) it needs that grit to do justice to the emotions. Your lyrics would make good songs!
Nothing
I’m so numb and hollow inside
And all I want is to feel like I’m alive
Always wanting to just feel something
But inside I feel nothing
My head is dark and black
And my heart is always broken and cracked
Why must I feel this way?
Why do I have to hurt like this everyday?
I’m lost inside, but no one knows except me
I can’t find my way if I can’t even see
It’s cold and dark inside my head
And I constantly feel like I’ve been misled
The voices inside never help at all
They only love to see me fall
How much longer do I have to feel this way?
I’m living a nightmare that I can’t escape
I’m so tired of fighting this
Everyday is the same
In never seems to change
No matter how hard I fight
Nothing seems to turn out right
How can I fight what the enemy says
When he’s always in my head
How can I escape?
How can I runaway?
When he never goes away
I’m lost inside, but no one knows except me
I can’t find my way if I can’t even see
It’s cold and dark inside my head
And I constantly feel like I’ve been misled
The voices inside never help at all
They only love to see me fall
How much longer do I have to feel this way?
I’m living a nightmare that I can’t escape
Tell me how I’m supposed to live
Cause no one ever told me how
But then again, how could they?
They don’t know how to live themselves
Everyone is lost, with the answer right in front of them
Somehow they can’t see the truth over the lies
So in the end, I guess I’m not the only one who’s left feeling nothing inside
I’m lost inside, but no one knows except me
I can’t find my way if I can’t even see
It’s cold and dark inside my head
And I constantly feel like I’ve been misled
The voices inside never help at all
They only love to see me fall
How much longer do I have to feel this way?
I’m living a nightmare that I can’t escape
Now
So you think you can skip ahead to tomorrow?
I guess you don’t know that your time is borrowed
You’re trying to live your life in the blink of an eye
So fast that everything just passes you by
You miss the things that matter everyday
Even when they are right in front of your face
You think there’s nothing more to life than to live and die
So you wait around till it’s your time to say goodbye
Stop waiting for the future, cause the future is now
Don’t waste another second wondering how
Just get up and start to live your life
Have love in your heart and always do what’s right
Good things and bad things will come and go
But remember that the pain is only there to help you grow
You may make mistakes along the way
But you live and learn from them everyday
Don’t you know that all of us have a purpose in life
We are much more than just a body and mind
If only you’d open your eyes and see the truth
Instead of walking down the path that causes you to lose
You can only see as far as your eyes let you
But your heart can see more, and make you real too
So slow down and live life one day at a time
Cause tomorrow isn’t promised, but you can make today shine
Stop waiting for the future, cause the future is now
Don’t waste another second wondering how
Just get up and start to live your life
Have love in your heart and always do what’s right
Good things and bad things will come and go
But remember that the pain is only there to help you grow
You may make mistakes along the way
But you live and learn from them everyday
Don’t lose sight of who you are or what you can do
Just live and be the very best you
Life is what you make it, so make it good while you can
Cause you’re only here once, and you only get one chance
Stop waiting for the future, cause the future is now
Don’t waste another second wondering how
Just get up and start to live your life
Have love in your heart and always do what’s right
Good things and bad things will come and go
But remember that the pain is only there to help you grow
You may make mistakes along the way
But you live and learn from them everyday
