[details=Runaway]I’ve tried so hard to runaway
From everything that I ever knew
But it all comes back in some way
And I don’t know what to do…?

Man I’m sick of the running, but seems to the only option
“What am I running from?”, seems to be the caption
I can keep on doing it, but it’s just a distraction
But with cause comes effect and the opposite reaction
Frowned upon for running away
I don’t have to explain myself in anyway
These are my demons at the end of the day
But I don’t have the strength to face them today

I’ve tried so hard to runaway
From everything that I ever knew
But it all comes back in some way
And I don’t know what to do…?

I’ve tried so hard to runaway!

Runaway…

Man I am sick of running, escaping something that’s not there
Why am I running away? It’s from those who don’t care
What else is there really for me here?
I am running away from my fear, that won’t disappear
No matter where I go it follows me so near
That doesn’t stop so I continue to run
Away from everything that I once done
Just so I don’t have to face what I’ve become
Like I said, I don’t have to explain myself to anyone

I’ve tried so hard to runaway
From everything that I ever knew
But it all comes back in some way
And I don’t know what to do…?

I’ve tried so hard to runaway!

Runaway…

Damn, I’m so sick of the running
But I still can’t face what seems to be coming
So, I carry on running
Away from every little thing that’s becoming something

I’ve tried so hard to runaway
From everything that I ever knew
But it all comes back in some way
And I don’t know what to do…?

I’ve tried so hard to runaway!

Runaway…
Runaway…
Runaway…
Run…a…way…[/details]

[details=Somewhere I Belong]Because home is somewhere I belong to…

No matter where I am
No matter where I go
I will always
Return home
No matter how bad it is
No matter what I do
There is a place
I always return to

I maybe gone for a long time
And I maybe far away too
This is something that I find
Home is somewhere I belong to…

It doesn’t matter if I walk
It doesn’t matter if I run
Home is where I go
When I am done

I maybe gone for a long time
And I maybe far away too
This is something that I find
Home is somewhere I belong to…

I’ve been searching for somewhere I belong
I’ve been searching for far too long
But now i’ve found I place I can call home
And home is somewhere I belong…

I maybe gone for a long time
And I maybe far away too
This is something that I find
Home is somewhere I belong to…

Somewhere I belong to…[/details]

[details=No Roads Left]When I reached the end of the line
And I’ve got nowhere to turn
When there’s no roads left for me
And I’ve got to turn my back on what I’ve learned

I…
Got no roads left
No…
Roads left to go
Oh…
I don’t know what else I can to do with this life
So…
Do I give up?
No…
Learn to let go
Oh…
Maybe I should and leave it all behind

When I reached the end of the line
And I’ve got nowhere to turn
When there’s no roads left for me
And I’ve got to turn my back on what I’ve learned

When there’s no roads left for me
No roads left…

You…
Got no roads left too
Do…
You know it too?
Soon…
You’d give up, just as I did, when you relize there’s nowhere left
So…
You have no way back?
No…
Roads left to attack
Oh…
Maybe you can and leave it all behind

When I reached the end of the line
And I’ve got nowhere to turn
When there’s no roads left for me
And I’ve got to turn my back on what I’ve learned

When there’s no roads left for me
No roads left…

Whispers
No roads left
No roads left
No roads left for me
No roads left
No roads left
No roads left to see
End of whisper

NO!!!
(No roads left for me)
ROADS!!!
(No roads left to see)
LEFT!!!
(No roads left to run)

When I reached the end of the line
And I’ve got nowhere to turn
When there’s no roads left for me
And I’ve got to turn my back on what I’ve learned

When there’s no roads left for me
No roads left…[/details]

[details=Lies Greed Misery]You wanted to lie
I don’t know why
But you tell them all the fucking time
You take and take
Feeding your greed
Like a vampire waiting for me to bleed
And now it’s done
And everyone’s gone
You’re left with nothing but misery

LIES! GREED! MISERY! (×4)

Do you know how to tell the truth?
Or is it too hard for you?
Because you know how to lie so very well
But now it is getting easier to tell
Do you know how to givd back?
Maybe it’s too hard as a matter of fact?
Because you take everything you get for granted
It builds and builds, see how high it has mounted
And now you’re alone, no-one to see you cry
Maybe you should ask yourself why
But don’t you dare come crying to me
You can suffer all alone in your misery

You wanted to lie
I don’t know why
But you tell them all the fucking time
You take and take
Feeding your greed
Like a vampire waiting for me to bleed
And now it’s done
And everyone’s gone
You’re left with nothing but misery

LIES! GREED! MISERY! (×4)[/details]

[details=All For Nothing]I wake in the morning and get ready for work
Spend all day at my job, getting treated like dirt
Being spoken down to, just so I can pay my bills
I wonder if there is anything better out there for me still
I guess it will have to wait for another day
Because I need ‘this’ job so I can get paid
Although I would like to think I am working for something
But most times I feel it’s all for nothing

Can this be right?
Surely it’s wrong?
I don’t know if, this can go on!
What is the point?
What will it bring?
There is no joy when it’s all for nothing

After a long day at work, I return home where nothing awaits
Surely there is more for me and this isn’t my fate
Because I get home at the end of the day
I remember how empty it is everyday
I don’t see the point, I can’t see an end
I have to accept it and not pretend
That I am returning home to something
And remember that this is all for nothing

Can this be right?
Surely it’s wrong?
I don’t know if, this can go on!
What is the point?
What will it bring?
There is no joy when it’s all for nothing

(instrumental)

Can this be right?
Surely it’s wrong?
I don’t know if, this can go on!
What is the point?
What will it bring?
There is no joy when it’s all for nothing

There is no point when it’s all for nothing

There is no way out…
WHEN IT’S ALL FOR NOTHING!!![/details]

Completely forgot about this, oh well, here goes. Witness the shitness (this is the first full song I’ve ever written). :joy: And yes I know, an empire can’t have a king.

They came in the night with fire
They came and took our home
They came to feed their empire
They came sucking all our hope

Those wretches and kings
Doing despicable things
Lets rise with an ire
To topple their empire

They never left us alone
Worked us to the bone
But we never give in
For some day we’d win

Those wretches and kings
Doing despicable things
Lets rise with an ire
To topple their empire

Then came the day
We brought forth hell
They had nothing to say
As down their empire fell

Those wretches and kings
Doing despicable things
Lets rise with an ire
To topple their empire

A valiant effort

Looks like you struggled to piece it together like i did

But at least you was able to actually put something together so well done :stuck_out_tongue:

My version of In The End is coming along very very very slowly

#27

Here is In The End

I know that I regret things in my past
But in the end it will not change
And I know that I have made mistakes
But in the end I know I have learned

There is no point in pretending
And no point in dwelling
On your actions, that you seem to be defending
Once the action is done
And the movements moved on
Don’t look back and wonder, just for it to be gone
Let it ride out
Don’t have any doubt
See what happens when it all spills out
Because you cannot undo
Speaking the truth
You can accept it or lie just like the others do

I know that I regret things in my past
But in the end it will not change
And I know that I have made mistakes
But in the end I know I have learned
I know that I lied to alot of you
But in the end behide them is truth
And I know that I was wrong
But in the end what’s done is done

There is no point in regret
No-one will forget
All the things that they think that you represent
Because no matter what you say
Will make it okay
And it will be out for all to see on a open display
No use it being hidden
It’s not like it’s forbidden
If no one likes what you say then bid them good-bye and good riddance

I know that I regret things in my past
But in the end it will not change
And I know that I have made mistakes
But in the end I know I have learned
I know that I lied to alot of you
But in the end behide them is truth
And I know that I was wrong
But in the end what’s done is done

Because in the end
It’ll show you who’s really your friend
And in the end
They will forgive you anyway
So in the end
Don’t hold anything back
In the end
None of this will really matter

I know that I regret things in my past
But in the end it will not change
And I know that I have made mistakes
But in the end I know I have learned
I know that I lied to alot of you
But in the end behide them is truth
And I know that I was wrong
But in the end what’s done is done

It is done

Now I know I already did Heavy (OML) but that wasn’t really part of the challenge
Actually did that out of anger of the song itself
But I have pick another song title from OML as part of this challenge

This is Nobody Can Save Me Now

Digging myself into this hole
Beyond anybodies reach
It seems that I am too far gone
Nobody can save me now

I’ve had a troubled past, nobody knows
The kinda things I’ve kept secret from most
Keeping it locked up, sounds a little fucked up
And maybe a little like that I am giving up
And because of these things, that the madness brings
Is the voice at the back of me head where the enemy sings
That’s just me, I am my worst enemy
And I keep it trapped inside my own memory

Digging myself into this hole
Beyond anybodies reach
It seems that I am too far gone
Nobody can save me now

I am passed asking for help because I cannot be saved
All because of the way that I used to behave
I kept pushing my luck, like I didn’t care
And all of that has led me here
With no friends or family, No-one to understand me
And the small group of people I have slipping rapidly
It’s just by what I do, but more by what I say
That made everyone I held close to me walk away

Digging myself into this hole
Beyond anybodies reach
It seems that I am too far gone
Nobody can save me now

No matter how much I need it
I can ask all I want
But the truth to all of this
Is nobody can save me now

Digging myself into this hole
Beyond anybodies reach
It seems that I am too far gone
Nobody can save me now

So i’ve up the ante on this one and did a Fort Minor song
This is The Hard Way

I used to think that I had all the answers
That I knew what was installed for me
I was in for a rude awakening
It turns out that things are not to go so simply
Why was I so determined to do things the hard way?
Why was I so stuck up on doing everything my way?
I should of listened to what others had to say
And now I am the one that has got to pay

I found out the hard way, how life can be
I look back and now know, I was my worst enemy
I didn’t listen to what anyone had to say
So I am stuck figuring out everything the hard way

I messed up so badly becaused I refused to listen
And now I’m behaving like that I am the victim
I was told to knuckle down, I would think “forgot 'em”
They was right and wonder if they have forgiven
Why did I think that I knew it all?
Why did I have to act like the class fool?
I should of listened to what they had to say
And now I’m finding out the hard way

I found out the hard way, how life can be
I look back and now know, I was my worst enemy
I didn’t listen to what anyone had to say
So I am stuck figuring out everything the hard way

(INSTRUMENT BREAK)

I found out the hard way, how life can be
I look back and now know, I was my worst enemy
I didn’t listen to what anyone had to say
So I am stuck figuring out everything the hard way
