Haven't posted song lyrics in AAAges... or poetry. So since I wrote two songs over Easter (and can't sing them write now because my voice is GONE! *sob*) I thought I'd post them here :)
Smile
You whisper in my ear
And I can't help but blush
And even though there's a crowd in here
Everything seems so hushed
And yeah, maybe my cheeks are as red as the roses
That grow on the walls outside
Every time I turn away I still feel your touch
You pull me back, you pull me in
I'm hiding under every stone
Doing my best to be alone
But you keep finding me and making me smile
No matter where I try to go
It's always somewhere that you know
So you keep finding me and making me smile
And nothing's so bad for a while
All your guests have gone
But you're still holding me tight
And I can't help but wonder what went wrong
Why you think you need me tonight
And yeah, maybe you've kissed me again and again
And said that I'm all that you want
And if I try to run away so I don't get hurt
I know you'll pull me back and pull me in
I'm hiding under every stone
Doing my best to be alone
But you keep finding me and making me smile
No matter where I try to go
It's always somewhere that you know
So you keep finding me and making me smile
And you keep on taking me high, high yeah
You make me high, high yeah
instrumental
And yeah, maybe you've kissed me again and again
And said that I'm all that you want
And maybe this time I'll let myself believe
I'll let you pull me back and pull me in
I'm hiding under every stone
Doing my best to be alone
But you keep finding me and making me smile
No matter where I try to go
It's always somewhere that you know
So you keep finding me and making me smile
And nothing's so bad for a while

Waiting to be told
Arms open and falling shadows
Is it so hard to admit you've changed?
Tell me, why? Tell me, why?
Light burns your face in morning
Is it this answer you're searching for?
Tell me, why? Tell me, why?
And all life's questions have an answer
All your feelings have a cause
And you're sitting there with your face turned upwards
And you're waiting to be told what's yours
Waiting to be told what's yours
You can cry so hard it turns to laughter
Give up and yet still succeed
Tell me, why? Tell me why:
Fate's workings are so confusing
Are we all really just born to die?
Tell me, why? Tell me, why?
And all life's questions have an answer
All your feelings have a cause
And you're sitting there with your face turned upwards
And you're waiting to be told what's yours
Waiting to be told what's yours
Just stop
Just think
Just realise
There's a million different answers
Just stop
Just think
Just realise
You have all the answers
You just have to
Just stop
Just think
Just realise
Just look
Just stop.
OK, so there are a few confusing lyrics. I need to tighten up the first bridge of smile, and work on Waiting to be told a bit more, because a lot of it doesn't make that much sense right now. But considering I hadn't written anything since October, I feel really quite productive!
