A few original songs

[darkcarnival13]

SECRETLY AFRAID

Father, i love you so
but some images haunt me, although
i care for you
but sometimes, the things you do....
they make me cry
i don't know why
but despite all this, i know you mean well....

CHORUS:
I secretly cried
I secretly lied
to those faint little heartbeats inside
of me
and secretly am in fear
my dear
cos im secretly afraid
END OF CHORUS

I listened for you heading up the stairs
those familar footsteps, they left me in despair
the way you sweared
it made me feel like you didn't care
it made me cry
and i don't know why
but despite all this, i know you mean well....

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
I'm sorry (im sorry)
I'm sorry (im sorry)
i cryed in front of you
I'm sorry (im sorry)
I'm sorry (im sorry)
if you ever felt this way too
and.....

I'm sorry, sorry, sorry
sorry, sorry sorry
sorry, sorry sorry, sorry
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
for......mmmmhmmm...yea-ah

CHORUS


im secretly waiting
im secretly waiting
im secretly waiting
on those days
when i learn how to not be afraid.....

My dad. he's not bad or anything, don't worry.  you know, he just gets a little short-tempered somtimes. i pretty much took that,and tried to make it something bigger than it was.

THE REAL ME

my goodness, would you look at the time?
seems like so many years have just.....passed me by
usta be that little spazzy girl everyone usta pick on
but that seems like so long.....ago
but i guess i'm still like that around my closest friends
but i just wish this would all end

PRE-CHORUS:
cuz so much has happened this past few years
priorities shuffled around, even a few shed tears
so hold on tight, hold on tight my dear....

CHORUS:
im trusting, trusting in you
and i hope you're the kinda guy
who says and means what you do
because you're the first person i'm gonna tell
hell
no, you don't!
and i wish you'd see....
see the real me
END OF CHORUS

friendships changed
and faded away
but one thing's stayed the, stayed the same
this life trys to keep us apart
but i know that this only the start.....

CHORUS


BRIDGE:
now i wish you'd IM me
i wish you'd email me
i wish you'd call me
i wish you would pull me and aside to talk to me
only, only so you can see....
yeah

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS (x2)

see the real me....oooo, oh-oh

[iluvvanessa]

[darkcarnival13]

well, i haven't posted a song up here in AGES. bout time.


 BLIND


Well, let me lay it down straight
your awesome, but hey hey
there's someone else
got a crazy little secret obsession
and I'm sorta glad no one's catchin'
on but...

2 weeks from now he'll be leavin
Inside I'm silently greiving
cos I'm missing my (I'm missing my)
I'm missing my chance!

CHORUS
And I keep on wondering why
I had to be so blind
caught up in another romance
oh, i think i missed my chane
And I keep on wondering why....
END OF CHORUS

Well, i guess
I'm in a little bit of a mess
cos I'm wrecked
cos i got a little crazy feeling
you're the thing to my heart reeling
oh yeah....oh no

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
la la la la
everything's fading away
la la la la
just wanna make it ok
please hear what i have to say....

I admit that I'm blind...
couldn't see
what i had in front of me
yeah....yeah...yeah
yeah....yeah...no

[ordinary day]

very well-written!!!

and very lyrics-like too (hope you know what i mean :wink: )

i especially like the way you repeat phrases

``                                   i didn't know, i didn't know
                           now i know, now i know
``
                      just listen, just listen

    ``                         i used to... i used to

GUYS LIKE YOU


She's that girl
the world
revolves around her.
She's the twisted version of the girl-next-door
no, i don't wanna hear anymore.

And you're Mr. Popularity
you acutally used to see something in me
but that's all over now
you're the twisted version of the guy i've known forever
no, but i don't wanna be together...


CHORUS:
im tired of changing
im tired of rearranging
im tired of making
this stupid plans
they'll never work
cos you're turning into a jerk
i don't wanna be in love
no i've had enough
of guys like you.
END OF CHORUS


Well, two years ago
i never would've thought you'd go this low
and you don't care
you're the twisted version of the mysterious guy
you're so two-faced, i know you know, don't lie...

CHORUS


BRIDGE:
I'm almost laughing through my tears
thinking you'd be standing with me here
well you're the twisted version of the star quarterback
and to think i thought this would last...

CHORUS

cos you're changing,
yeah you're changing
you're changing
and i don't wanna be in love
no, i know i've had enough
of guys like.....you

BACKGROUND NOISE

Whatever happened to that guy
all dreamy-eyed, and you didn't care what people thought
now you're popular
and i can't believe this is what the future brought....

CHORUS:
I'm like the graffitti on the wall, gettin' written all over
I'm like a drunk guy, you tell me to call once im sober
I'm just the background noise in your life
im not important to you, anymore


i remember the times i made you smile
it made me feel like it was worthwhile....
now im trying to catch my breath
thinking what happened since back then?

CHORUS

Well, i guess i was wrong
you're not like the boy in my favorite song
well i guess i was wrong
you're not as strong.....
as i thought...

CHORUS


don't need this
no, no, no, no, no
(x3)

you're such a stupid little boy
i don't wanna be your background noise
