Where?

[Sketch]

Thats cool! awsome lyrics .^-^ but if someone ever sang this to me it'd kinda scare me.

[Akanari]

Goodness these MUST turn into songs. I love Underwood ^^ But all the little angels is still my favorite. The monologue is awesome too... Very thought-provoking.

[Therin]

I never wondered what it feels
Just to stand, not have to kneel
Just to look up, and stare at the sky

And I never dreamed that this could be
What I wanted it to be
Look around me, I never believed it but now I can see

And what have you dreamed under the sky
Spread your wings and learn to fly
Look around you, I'll show you the way

And here is a place you cannot see
Come and find it here with me
Reach above you, and feel the new day

And I've never seen you here before
Guess you're wondering what it's for
I don't know yet, I'm trying to see

But feel how the wind blows through your hair
Smell the newness of the air
Sky is open, fly with me!

[chorus]I want to see what I can't see
Want to be what I can't be
Want to to stay here, where I belong

And why is there nothing there for me
While in here I'm flying free
All below me, cuz I'm not here
[/chorus]

And you see the things I want to hide
And you wonder why I lied
Then you see me, and I've nothing to say

And you simply cannot understand
Why I do my slight of hand
You can't see me, cause I still don't know who I am!

[chorus]

I don't know who I should be
Cuz I'm not who I seem
Yeah I find myself sleeping while everyone's dreaming for me
But their words are just whispers and lies that I cannot believe!

[chorus]

[Silver Adept]

Such varied moods evoked in your songs, Therin. Excellently done. You could make an interesting album out of these lyrics.

[Therin]

Changed the words to Underwood <_<

Fond embrace,
Lovely face,
These I only remember,

Deep inside,
Things reside,
It will be cold this December,

[Chorus]See your face in every form,
Smile at me through a burning storm,
Visions dancing wistfully,
Across my memory…[/Chorus]

Far from here,
Always near,
Hovering over my shoulder

Choices made,
Alters made,
Weighs on my heart like a boulder

Blinding snow
Ice to blow
Sustained by the things I remember

Long to see,
Yearn to be,
My love, it is cold this December,

Want to rip his head apart
Tear his throat and that’s just a start
Raging deep inside of me
Screaming, deceiving, and bleeding I’m empty in-

Side I hear,
Pain and fear,
Searching forever for you, girl

Hear and now,
This I vow,
Nothing will keep me from you, girl

[Chorus]

Come with me,
You will see,
Things you can only imagine

Dreams are real,
Break your seal,
Glorious wonders imagined

Neverwhere,
Float like air,
Carry me through this December.

This song seems like it follows almost exactly along the song "Once Upon a December" from Anastasia. <3

[Therin]

That's because it does ^_^

There are a number of those -- Underwood follows Sober, by Tool; the one atop this page follows John Rzeznik's I'm Still Here; and of course, Where? follows Yoko Kanno's Inner Universe.

Wow. These are really good, Therin. Keep it up

[Minosheep]

omg omg omg

Get Kiyomi to sing 'em!

I Dreamed of Lying

The gunshot rings like dirty laughter on the water, but it was only a dream.
And I've just left me here again, cold and empty like a bitter sea...

Crashing around me the world returns like a wrecking ball and chain.
I cannot see my way again, I am lost in a maze of pain.
Pain and longing and dark tricks of mind and the lessons learned from love,
But I have to go on, stumble down on the long road ahead to be free with a dove.

Wings are unfolding to carry me on to a place I have been before.
All my life falls down below me, empty and begging more.
Someone who waits for a laughing embrace, hold me close when I'm ready to fall,
But I can't take you with me, the dream is alone, so you sit and you lean on the wall.

How this tears me apart,
Hammers nails in my heart,
I'm so close,
But I'm not quite strong enough,
No, I can't let it end,
No, it has to go on,
I will not be denied...This time!

I will run by the light of the fire in your eyes through the shadows to find you once more.
I am here, please don't go, I am ready to show you the world waiting just out your door.
By my will to the bone, you're no longer alone, I am here for you now evermore.
I will show you the way to the dreams have held, you'll unlock them and face them and more.

Let the shadows descend, I will stand and defend, I will burn them away at the core!
Let your foes meet demise by this pistol of mine, I'm your knight in the shining amour!
Let the halls of your soul shine like pure burnished gold in the light of the love that I feel.
Let your mind become free and your wings open wide, you can fly as before you I kneel!

But the blood will run red,
Like the halls of the dead,
I have tried,
But I wasn't strong enough.
Take my gun to my head,
Let it roar with the lead,
I have failed someone else...once more.

The gunshot rings like dirty laughter on the water, but it was only a dream.
And I've just left me here again, cold and empty like a bitter sea...
