Pretty "prosumpsious" that my message had nothing to do with you and your song writing "persay" and just song writing in general.  As someone who's in a band and can play multiple instruments and writes his own music, it was about just that... what people can and can't get away with.  

I forget but wasn't the topic "SONGS"?

Which, by & large, I'd take as... "open forum to talk about"... "SONGS" oh my god, christ on crutches sweet jesus look at all that... See how it all kinda comes together in the end?

So begging your pardin' is kindess but when you do it for a living it becomes obscure, so I won't even try to do so.

Keep up the good work, though.

Pick up a gun
Pick up a sword
Arm yourself
Start a war
Filled with anger
Filled with hate
Built-in fear inside your soul

But don’t be hate
And don’t be fear
Don’t be politics
Make your purpose clear
Don’t be anguish
Don’t be pain
Don’t be suffering
Don’t be vain

Chorus

Show your mercy
Show you’re just
Show compassion on us
Show you’re righteous
Fight for truth
Blood was shed
But not by you

You have many scars
But not by war
They’re so deep
And they are sore
Don’t be pride
Let it go inside
Your ego made people die
But go ahead and cry
For the lives
That were victims of your rage
In an age of tolerance
Put down the guns
Let there be peace.

Sirens

1. Oh Sailors listen to them sing
Beautiful voices hidden in the wind
It’s amazing what life can bring
Sirens make me forget everything

Chorus
Sirens call me near
The silence isn’t clear
I play my own lyre
To drown out their sound
So dangerous
Daughters of Archelous
Trying to crash us in the rocks
And hurt us

2. She calls me out to the sea
A rainbow hanging over me
Oh it was destiny
That she drew me closer internally

Chorus

Bridge
Your words encapsulate me
More enticing than your melody
Prophesy what you see
Broken men before thee

RIGHT PLACE, WRONG TIME
-----------
Pictures on my wall from a time I can't recall
I took them down to help make me feel better
But I kept everysingle letter

It makes the ending stand on its own
When we was living we were barely living
but man were we living large
Now your gone and I'm here all alone
No sign of life, no ringing telephone

Man somebodys gotta get me out of this place
Somebodys gotta take charge cause I can't even remember your face

And all this time we was running from what we never met
Always loosing steps under every last breath
Even though we haven't been there yet
I bet they'll get to you too

& don't it make you sad to know life can & will move on without you
& don't it make you sad to know you've lost what you fought to prove
& don't it make you sad to know the truth

See we've got time right now
But we're running out
So now's not a time to whisper
Now's a time to shout
Leave behind the pain you fear to doubt

Hopeless and free from the hearts biggest enemy
& I still can't believe you say it's over but I think you believe yourself when you say
It's over (repeat)

THE ART OF FALLING APART FROM THE INSIDE OUT:
--------------------------------------------

We had too much on our hands to think about the futures plans
The war was over
The war was good
I missed the part where we misunderstood
Yeah maybe for a second or two
But you know I'll always believe in you

& You'll be back here thinkin' of goodbye suicides
& reasons why he'd never want you back on his good side

& I'll be be back here thinkin' of you thinkin 'of me
& if that doesn't happen then silly me

We had to stop it sometime,  see times running out & you're running late
Holding a four leaf clover
Wishing it wasn't over
Thinking of the plot to what you just saw
Crying love dry cause you've got withdraws

I missed everything but missing you
Always missed everything but missing you
& you always said it wasn't true
Cause you could never do that, no you could never do that

Still see me running to see you
Still see me running to see you
Still see me running to see you
Still see me running to see you
Still see me running to see you

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

I wrote this over the course of the week on 3 accoutic guitars and 4 of my band mates at the lake. The names a bit long, but I said this on the way out to eat one night when asked how big of a fool I thought someone to be "he'll remain nameless" for going after a friend of ours who's married.

I said it's the art of falling apart from the inside out... Meaning it'll self destruct in a week or two. LOL~

This is about him and her in a way so... take it for what it is, it is a good tune though.

Balt~  

& I'm sorry I haven't been around much as of late. I went to England for a bit, got back broke my finger in the gym and been dealing with multiple bad happenings. I'll be back around, though, wait n' see... I got some really great stuff for the site this time too, this time I mean it. LOL!

Balt, again.

Life can be tricky, life can be cruel, but life is for living and experience has been my school. Always still learning and forever still yearning, but never really getting it...

Inside

I sit in the dark and here’s what I see baby, a reflection of you and me
Holding each other so close and so true, never letting go, where did it all go?
You look into my eyes, I brush away your beautiful brown hair, so soft, so real.
Love is in me, love is all I feel….yeah

~It consumes me whole, swallows me up and leaves me bleeding all alone in this bloodbath.

Relections, I wish they were true; I’d give anything, anything just to be with you.
I’m dying inside, wont you save me tonight? Please, I’m numb in this fear, why aren’t you here? So alone…inside

Reaching out my hand, I see you there, watching you lay, as I pull back the sheets,
You’re here with me, so pure, so innocent and all for me, for you are mine, baby.
Kiss me, kiss me like there’ll never be a tomorrow. Feel me, feel me wherever I am, I’ll follow, I’ll follow you….yeah

~Numb inside my head, so alone in my bed, wishing on that star, my only saint tonight, my angel delight, you are

Relections, I wish they were true; I’d give anything, anything just to be with you.
I’m dying inside, wont you save me tonight? Please, I’m numb in this fear, why aren’t you here? So alone…inside

A CHANCE
--------------------------------------------

You won the role of my world that night
Got me thinking of nothing & no other girl
Even though we hate how we act sometimes
Your eye's still catch everything under the broken hearted moon light

~ One last chance
Always so sad
Forget what you never had
Cause it's not that bad ~

No this isn't the first time & it won't be the last
He's got things going on behind your back
That'd give you a heart attack
& there's this light outside your front door that doesn't shine no more
It always lets me know you deserve everything you never got before
Don't you shout and don't you scream
Cause I know sometimes life isn't all it seems

~ One last chance
Always so sad
Forget what you never had
Cause it's not that bad ~

Funny little things that tick
All the feelings we just spent
Late night talks and cracks on the sidewalk
I wonder where they all went
So I'm with him, the man in my shadow
I'm gonna miss the way you shine
Gonna miss the way you glow
But I know everything will be fine
Just let me know & I'll let you go

~ One last chance
Always so sad
Forget what you never had
Cause it's not that bad ~

So dry your eyes & don't you cry
I'm gonna construct your reason why
& if that reason why's not smart
I'll build you a brand new heart

And yes something is missing
And yes something is missing
And yes something is missing
And yes something is missing
--------------------------------------------------


Just been hangin' out with my broken finger and some friends as of late... don't worry, I'm still writing screenplays, just music is much easier to produce quicker

This is a song I wrote yesterday after an amazing day with some freinds. I've been playing around with some chords, nothing major yet but these are the lyrics and they do mean a world to me at the moment and probably have been inside me for the better half of 2 months now.

This is my 1st poem in a collection of them... all themed based and about a new girl the kind that everybody wants and the kind only some of us obtain, like oxygen they are always in your way but never ever ever come to play...


----------------------
I've waited all of these years to get your attention and if I was the king of hell you'd be my henchmen. We don't have all the time in the world but what we have is moments, flashes like assasians by trade and murders in the luliby where they took you under their wing and tought you how to sing... bye bye blue bird, bye bye bye bye blue bird.

This was my heart and I miss my lunges what happened to everyone they don't speak so well now do they. Holes in the sky like tears in your veins & we wonder why she goes away... She's off to kill the grass where the others came to play, but will she sing... will she sing... bye bye blue bird for you like she did for me way back then.

And once again we are stuck. Can't always have the best of luck cause if we did it wouldn't be called luck now would it? Think about leaving and break my walls down, call us even. Hope & pray we are still this way in 10 to 20 years & I can't believe you still have fears, maybe we should teach eachother how to sing... bye bye blue bird bye bye bye bye blue bird.

Alright this one is something I'm thinking up on the spot.

Black lights on a darkened sky.
A bullshit reflection and you don't know why.
Love's an empty shell of ecstacy.
A painless injection for you to see.

Cold hands perfecting the action.
Slow dance - waiting to guage a reaction.
Nothing but an small infraction.
Something for nothing and I know you try.

You want to think you more then nothing.
You want to think that you are something...

Black lights on a darkened sky.
A bullshit reflection and you don't know why.
Love's an empty shell of ecstacy.
A painless injection for you to see.

A mirror can tell all - and still manage to to lie.
You want to deny it, oh how you try.
Are you just a hypocrite.
Nothing but hot air, and full of shit.

Black lights on a darkened sky.
A bullshit reflection and you don't know why.
Love's an empty shell of ecstacy.
A painless injection for you to see.

Tell me something, and say it's new.
Do you really think, that that is true.
Love's an empty shell of ecstacy.
A painless injection for you to see.

You want to think you more then nothing.
You want to think that you are something...

Black lights on a darkened sky.
A bullshit reflection and you don't know why.
Love's an empty shell of ecstacy.
A painless injection for you to see.

I woke up hot in a cold room.
I’ve never felt like this before.
Watch the people pass on by.
Happy Anniversary my loved one.
Now I drink, I drink all night.
Only for an hour buzz.
Doesn’t she look beautiful standing in her dress?
I am distracted, absorbed into her.

I’m a poet.
I’m a screamer.
I’m taking this revolution out for a ride.
You’re beautiful.
And I’m a slut.
And you know I can’t control it.

These are just ideas, they are not copyrighted.
I swear I’m sorry if I ever hurt you.
The glass machine can finally break.
And baby I’m coming home.

You gave me your hand.
I’ll be someone to love as long as you live.

This armless race, wind blowing in my face.
And I am still thinking of her.
If you haven’t noticed by now this song is about you, Amanda.

B.L.G.
(an acoustic rock ballad by Alan Holman)

Her smile that I rarely saw
had character I tried to draw.
Jay'd have it seem
that my tries to see her eyes
and how they'd shine so green
were obscene,
and his words to her
put me in a bad light,
because we'd fight to delight her.

The desire to share good times,
calm times, mellow times,
times doing nothing on a tree in the summer
or times doing something in twilight in a hummer
or on a roof observing lightning,
or writing enlightening anything with her.
About that desire, she was always in the dark,
and always is way too long.

But after I learned why the story goes this way,
she displayed that she had something to say
And all of her wonderful, charming, cute, lovely,
intelligent, mellow, humble, playful, words,
to my surprise,
displayed every quality I've ever known how to love
but I waited too damn long
to tell her what I saw and heard
I still haven't explained a quarter of it.

To say she was the source of so much motivation
A cause of such great inspiration
would put it lightly.

To say she made me create much damning, damned good art, wouldn't put it nearly as bluntly as it should be put to do it justice.

Being unclear about my intentions,
in my communications,
and saying I was clear,
when I was clearly unclear,
was my mistake, a penultimate downfall

So where's my brain at?
Oh no, I'm saying things again.

And those rare times she'd speak to me,
and I'd reply affectionately,
it seemed her thoughts of me
hadn't altered negatively
I was in love with her style
of maintaining that pleasant smile
and remaining herself even while
her words fed my sacred illusion,
my grand delusion
of a better day
that might have been today
had I been more honest.

So when I found  
Jay'd played on a shiny day
by asking her to a barbecue,
was my jealous reaction
of an invitation
to walk with her in the park
with her friend who just might bark
posessive, creepy, or innocent,
compared to Jay's similar invitation?

Because when I saw Jay had asked her,
that's when I realised that all this waiting
for the right moment, was a waste of rare moments,
so I courageously asked
and her reply that my question creeped her out
indicated that walking freaks her out
whereas barbecues don't.
It makes no sense.
She makes no sense.
But I love solving mysteries.
And that's why I love her.
And that's why I still want to understand
her answer to the question at hand:
Is the park creepier than a barbecue?
If so, how so?  What's wrong with me
that you'd reply politely
to Jay's request
yet my equally motivated similar request
was replied to so hurtfully?

When I asked, she said N/A,
that's why the mystery still baffles me to this day.
I admit this song if played hardcore
complicates matters even more
But it's rockin and alright, if played tonight
with fast drums deep solos no stage fright
guitars and keyboards ablaze just right
all over the stage late into the night,
alright?

NO GOODBYE:
----------------------------
The lies you told
The truth that you sold
Sometimes I'd believe it
Others I wouldn't

A simple place
A state of mind
I lost your face
The one you left behind

But still...

Your soul, your soul
What ever happend to your beautiful soul!

So here we go....
Once again...
I gotta let you know...

Though you're not my friend
My bones will mend
I'm stone
I'm concrete
My heart won't even miss a beat

I won't listen
I won't cry
I won't call
I won't pretend
I won't defend
I won't think again
I won't ask why

No goodbye... No goodbye... No goodbye
No goodbye... No goodbye...

Bitterflies

Ignore me, adore me, look my way but never look through me.
Watch my tears, raindrops of my fears, flowing into rivers.
Watch them grow, watch them flow.

Neverending circles of shit,
lost in this hole,
stuck in this pit
moving forwards, going backwards,
regret never leaves.

Humiliate me, reject me, ignore me but never forget me.
The same old me, the same old we.
Round and round, lost and found, regret's lost his sound.
Losing my mind, love blind.

Neverending circles of shit,
lost in this hole,
stuck in this pit
moving forwards, going backwards,
regret never leaves.

Me and my four walls, no more freedom, one crushed soul.
My inner hell, in my private cell.
Time wil tell if I can break regret's spell.

Neverending circles of shit,
lost in this hole,
stuck in this pit
moving forwards, going backwards,
regret never leaves.
