My Songs and Poems (Most are going to music eventually)

[LightRainShower]

Hey, I guess this is pretty much my first post on Clumsy Congress... I've decided to expose most of my lyrical content... You will find a definite Our Lady Peacish flow to some of them... I listen to OLP alot when I'm writing, so I kind of get into the flow of it... Please, give me your full opinion on them... Not as a whole, but rather pick them apart and destroy them to get your point across... I need people who want to do that... Alright, here we go..

Nicole
This song is about a girl who just broke up with her boyfriend, and tried to get to find someone else... Only to find that everyone thought she was to perfect to touch... The weeks pass on as she wonders what happened to her happy life. A knock sounds at her door, and when she opens it, and a red rose is left with a note saying "I love you, but we can not be together anymore... I hope you have the perfect life you dream of.." Now her boyfriend is a sweet guy, but he has no clue of what her thoughts are turning too, he only thinks she is happy and perfect...

Well she is sitting over there,
Wondering how life become so unfair.
There is a flower in her hand,
And she doesn't know why.

THis is the way to go for her,
It's the only way she knows.
And everone thinks she's perfect,
But she's not quite sure of it.

No, he's best to let her go,
With only a touch of her soul.
But what does he know;
She's only the perfect girl, sweet Nicole

Choking in their own ignorance,
They don't know what's on her mind.
Those bright blue eyes deceive,
And only those eyes know why.

She's not quite the person you quite see,
She's not quite the person you know.
She has to deal with these problems
These problems of her own.

Who will ever know...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Are you Okay?
This song I wrote because I wanted say something like "It's alright, there is more than one way to get away from your problems..." But then I realized that some people worry by choice... And this just spawned out of my mass confusion of thoughts.

You worry about your future
You worry about your past
You get ahead, only to finish last

Lost inside is a little dream
And a little doubt it'll never be
When that little boy comes up to you and asks
Are you okay? Are you running away?
Just let me say, there's more than one way

You worry about your religion
You worry about your faith
You can lock the door, but you won't feel safe

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Forgiving Ghost
I was listening to alot of Happiness when I was in the process of writing this (1-2 weeks) and yes, a few ideas were taken, and OLP gets full credit of course...

It is still not enough to atone,
For the undreamt dreams and telephones.
With forgiving ghosts on the line,
Who gently whisper "Everything is fine."
Take your problems and push them away,
Please inform them that everything is okay.

Fall back into your place and,
Hide behind the smile on your face.
But the ghost on the line,
Is in your mind, still whispering "Your fine... Your fine."
Take your problems and divide them into lies
And inform them that you're saying goodbye.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Know
This is one of my more recent ones... It's all about not knowing how someone feels, and not being able to read them like you used to be able too.

I don't know what to say,
To heal wounds of yesterday,
That nobody else can see.
No one else, no place to go,
It's funny that I won't reall know,
What all my friends don't see in me.

I'll never know, if what you show,
Is what you feel, and where you'll go.
THis is wrong, or maybe you're right,
But the truth wil not step into light.
I'll never know, what you know,
Yet.

And now you stand up with something to say,
Screaming I can not forget today,
And everything you said to me.
No place to go, and no one's home,
It's funny that no one ever knows,
What they want to know, and be.

I'm sure that'll keep you occupied for for awhile... Nicole and Are You Okay? have music written to them... Please, tell me what I could improve on... ANYthing[/i]

[committed]

one glaring mistake:

too many blatant rip offs of olp lyrics

[sandsleeper]

Hey, I guess this is pretty much my first post on Clumsy Congress...

wait. you know this isn't the clumsy congress, right?

[LightRainShower]

Yeah, I know the blantant OLP ripoffs, But it's mostly in A Forgiving Ghost and Nicole... Because I wasn't even really thinking of any OLP songs when I wrote the rest of the songs, despite what it may seem...

Sorry, I know this place is Clumsy Monkey, lol... Clumsy Congress is a name a use alot for gaming and stuff... :\

Again, the OLP rips are easy to tell, and quite plain to the real fan...

[LightRainShower]

lol sorry if I came off alittle angry... Yeah, I like to base my songs on OLP rhyming patterns... But in all honestly, "A Forgiving Ghost" and "Nicole" are the one that I took idea and lines from... Know and Are you Okay are completely my own...

Again, I am sorry if I came off sounding angry..

[sandsleeper]

s'ok.
