Disappearing Act~

Act One, Scene One

and it's opening night.

Red curtains, black tie

and the pinstripes are all dressed to impress.

You're masked in a veil

of white light and make up.

You're hiding white lies

in the backs of their minds.

You're the main attraction,

the star of the show.

Opportunity comes knocking,

will you take it?

No one will ever know.

[Chorus]

You're whole world's a stage,

but it's not your reality.

This is your disappearing act

and they're waiting for a return.

But I know you better than that,

you're never coming back.

Is it just me,

or have you changed for the worse?

If I recall:

"the show must go on".

And these blood thirsty eyes do not forgive.

It's a full house tonight,

you won't want to disappoint.

You've run out of hollow shells and empty lies.

All that's left now is the grand finale

when the clock strikes thirteen times.

You're the main attraction,

the star of the show.

Opportunity comes knocking,

will you take it?

No one will ever know.

(Chorus x2)

So take my advice - 

you're on the road to ruin.

Shielding yourself with your fake intentions.

(repeat x6)

Is it just me

or have you changed for the worse?

(repeat x4) <----overlapping previous verse on last 4 times.

Is it just me

or have you changed for the worse?

********************************

ok, i dont really know what this song is about to be honest. i just sorta started writing it. i was kinda in a mood for abstract lyrics, so i thought: why not?

any thoughts?

unfinished lyrics

some of you may or may not have seen these lyrics before, but theyre not exactly finished.. so yar..

anyways, this song is called "Would You Be My Wings"

Everyday

(It's never ending)

Same old stuff

(It's never ending)

And I can't seem to find my way

out of this place.

Coz I can hear, but I'm not listening

to what they're saying.

I can speak, but I'm not gonna say

what they're wanting to hear.

My mind's a million miles away

coz I'm still thinking of you.

So would you be my wings

and take me anywhere,

anywhere but here.

There's a place that I can see,

but I can't reach it - 

no, it's just too far away.

So would you be my arms and reach out for it?

Here me when I say:

Would you escape with me,

or would you let me go?

Would you come just to find me

and would you stay?

Would you be my wings?

well... what else..

most of my time these days has been taken up by typing up more of the story in the Pink Book; time consuming, but possibly quite satisfying when im done. 

LOL, it was so weird - the other night i woke up in the middle of the night and i reallllyyyy felt like eating either apple crumble, or that Sara Lee chocolate cake :P

not very healthy, i know, but hey!

hmmm.. what else...

oh! i wanna see the new Hellboy movie. its looks so madass! i really enjoyed the first one, but this one looks even better :D

saw the new Batman movie the other night.. was a little reluctant to at first, but then when i saw it, i was like: omg! love it!

i urge everyone to go see it! Heath Ledger was GREAT!! my fave character was The Joker. <3

im inspired to create my own comic book villain.. only problem is that i cant really draw =.=

ah wells, i'll get there, LOL!

well, i think thats bout all i can rant on about for the minute.. back to watching Samurai Champloo then...
