Pretty good m8 , im friggen embarrassed to post my lyrics here..

 

LOL.....i never write more than one para....just the main chorus thats it... This way no one can critize me....hehehe

 

Don't worry... nobody will tease you. :beer:

 

This is a slightly better one... written only a few days after the first one, but I made the song only recently.


Shadow of The Past

(intro)

As a child, I used to walk alone
From sunrise until the sun had set
I used to walk along the river side
Tracing its birth to the mountains high
I felt the pain of my weariness
And the rain did fail to change my road

Me and my shadow were best friends (back) then
I didn't know anyone who could help me win
My childhood walks keep coming back to me
A little vague, but its so clear to see
A lonely boy, I had no friends! I had no help!
To help me fight my fears back then.

chorus:
I kept on going on roads I didn't know
I kept on going though I wished to go home
What was the secret I had tried to find?
It was the secret I have failed to find!

The river of joy, I used to call it once
I knew it well though I could not swim
Looking at the stars on the water clear
Holding the invisible hands of no one there
I saw the magic of the time and day
It was a magic that would never cease

(chorus)
(solo)

The mountains still stand tall in my dreams
I looked at the hills for hours unceasing
Look at me now, I still am dreaming on
The boy I once was, is now long gone
Yet I know that I would love to run
Runnin along the rivers that I used to once

(chorus) X 2
(outro)

 

good

pretty good, esgallindeion. i think u have talent. do u ever try singing or just writing is ur thing?

 

Writing and playing... Thats it. :beer: More than enough, in my opinion.

 

If anyone wants the midi to this song which I composed u can go check the English Tabs section... Currently this is my fav self composition.


Lost Horizon

Try to leave a veil of tears
Shivering, into the night.
Forget the pain of all your fears
A vision gone out of sight.

The day you see has left us all alone
Happiness a thing of the past
The child of fate will play on his own
For tommorow we'll never last.

Never leave me till the game's end
Or the sleepwalker'll take us away
Whatever's the price you must pay
Deliverance to us will be sent.
Someday...

The mission of our fates have failed
To light a faint final spark
Much is the toll that pride has paid
To enter the same old park.

Never leave me till the game's end
Or the sleepwalker'll take us away
Whatever's the price you must pay
Deliverance to us will be sent.
Someday...
Someday...

solo - Guitar 2

Never leave me till the game's end
Or the sleepwalker'll take us away
Whatever's the price you must pay
Deliverance to us will be sent.
Someday...

Silence I have so long endured
Words don't have a clue
Live my life the way I should
And fly away with you

Never leave me till the game's end
Or the sleepwalker'll take us away
Whatever's the price you must pay
Deliverance to us will be sent.
Someday...
Someday...

Solo - guitar 1

Never leave me till the game's end
Or the sleepwalker'll take me away
Whatever's the price you must pay
Deliverance to us will be sent.
Someday...

Ooh ooh...my friend wrote one once. It was too ...er... innovative for me to come up with. It was very interesting:

There was a boy
Who didn't have a mamma
So lost and lonely
He didn't have no friends.

CHORUS:

Oooh, there was such a pretty vase
Yeah baby
And this boy, he saw that vase
Such a pretty vase.
Oooh, oooh ooooh.

---

Well...that was the gist of it. Wouldcha like me to go on?? An excuse for it....well, we were both very young. VERY. (And in case you didn't figure it out...it was called..."The Pretty Vase")

Tried to hold on

Verse:

This is how it began, and this is how it ends.
Not on me but on time it depends.
Holding on with what i had left in me,
I realized this was how its meant to be.

Refrain:

Time is a healer, it only meands,
But due to circumstances, the future bends.
Not a minute sooner, nor a minute late,
Could alter the courses of my fate.

Chorus:

Tried to hold on but i slipped away,
Couldn't let go, but neither could i stay
Hanging to the edges, i got lost in thought
Content with the feeling that i stood up and fought

Verse:

What we get is only what we give,
This is how i learnt, i needed to forgive.
Instead of the thoughts running through my head,
I listened to the ones that were already dead.


Refrain:

Time is a healer, it only meands,
But due to circumstances, the future bends.
Not a minute sooner, nor a minute late,
Could alter the courses of my fate.

Chorus:

Tried to hold on but i slipped away,
Couldn't let go, but neither could i stay
Hanging to the edges, i got lost in thought
Content with the feeling that i stood up and fought

Bridge:

Slipping, I'm slipping, I'm slipping away..
'Cause I always did things my way.
Falling, I'm falling, I'm falling today...
'Cause i always learnt things the hardway.

Chorus:

Tried to hold on but i slipped away,
Couldn't let go, but neither could i stay
Hanging to the edges, i got lost in thought
Content with the feeling that i stood up and fought

There it is. Tell me what you think of it.
