Array ( [sid] => 89875 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Foreshadow [time] => 2005-04-04 17:46:27 [hometext] => =/ [bodytext] => Lost inside myself; more than ever now
I can't think straight; I just repeat the vow
Staring at the ground; looking at the past
Sorting memories; how long will they last?
As I glance up and see the foreshadow
Foreign and blunt; morbidly shallow
I suppose its for the best; only the weak need rest
But how can I say this when I failed the tests?

NO SUPPORT
I can taste the grey and the red mix together
It seems so RIGHT
AND UTTERLY FLAWLESS
But the pain won't subside
As my tongue turns to leather

What am I doing here?
(************!)
Why do I even care?
(************!)
TELL ME
I need you to believe
I need you to see

Tired, burnt, and sore; so demanding
Search inside myself for understanding
What the ***** am I trying to do?
Three things at once; I'm so confused
Mirror the martyr to see it all again
Overdose of reality to comprehend
All I've got is a summer of pain
And a fall of hardships to obtain

NO SUPPORT
I can taste the grey and the red mix together
It seems so RIGHT
AND UTTERLY FLAWLESS
But the pain won't subside
As my tongue turns to leather

What am I doing here?
(************!)
Why do I even care?
(************!)
TELL ME
I need you to believe
I need you to see

WHAT AM I SMILING FOR?
THERE'S NOTHING LEFT
EVERYTHING RAPED AND GONE
INVOKING THEFT
NOTHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO
JUST, DEATH
TO ALL MY HOPES AND DREAMS
BY MY OWN BREATH

A summer of pain
A fall of hardships
A winter of uncertainty
Will you be there?
Or am I alone?
This lack of support
Frightens me


IS THIS NOT
WHAT I NEED?
THIS IS NOT
WHAT I PERCEIVED [comments] => 2 [counter] => 188 [topic] => 34 [informant] => sicknivesevered [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )

wow, very strong writing. a lament with a very good rhythm and the rhyme doesn't seem artificial at all. "a summer of pain" - I think I've used a line like that in one of my german poems before.

Powerful and it jumps off the page. This was good. I like all of your lyrics they are really good. I love the 2nd to last stanza. Great lyrics.

Take care
