My Obsession Song

by

Don’t forget me
cuz I’m going down
bleeding love
for a thousand years
wish you were here

gotta have roots before branches
stand
push
tomorrow will be kinder
so why does it rain down on utopia

i will never be the same without you
the one that got away
cuz history is made at night
paint it black
just a little bit stronger

Kind of a sequel to my soundtrack for you but with songs I’m currently obsessed with.  It might be cool to start a series of these poems made with song titles/recognizable lyrics… thoughts?

Is it over yet?

by

Is it over yet?
This never ending game we continue to play
Is it over yet?
Is this even worth it at the end of the day?

You pretend
What you say never feels sincere.
I pretend
That it’s not really you that’s here.

Is it over yet?
It’s like the old same song,
Playing over and over again.
I hear you but I no longer feel you.
When I try to pull away,
You hold on with all you have.
You think it’s so wonderful, but I think it’s not.
Is it over yet?

Since I’m at BiSC, I’m being lazy and posting stuff I’ve already written… Lyrics for Friday! 🙂

lone melody

by

let me hear you sing
bring it on, buddy
you better be good
i knew you would be
decide to take the ride
now take the stage

the song started
by the end
there you stood
were there others
standing by
heart starts to sway

when my game
was nearly beaten
the gates were down
i nearly gave my hand
up so you wouldn’t win
but you did anyway

it started with a song
the melody still going
then the music stopped
and now i sing by myself
the words that you know
but wouldn’t let me say
