Alright, well I don't know how well the songs will sound without being sung, but here are some lyrics. They have sort of a blink 182 sound to them, if that helps at all. Feedback is greatly appreciated.

Hung From The Heart

Don't take this personal she said.

Spin the bottle take another chance honey and,
Another jacket 'cause the weather's gettin' so bad.
And I'll buy you coffee to go.
And I'll hold your hand.
Stay up late and watch our favorite reruns.
Make some popcorn maybe wrestle with the lights on.
And I miss your smile to die for.

This is the best day of my life.
And you'll never know.
This is the best day of my life.
And you'll never know.

Slow it down, take it back, we're moving too fast.
Pick a number, 'cause you know I'll put you second last.
And I'm saying so long.
And I'm saying it's done.
Say your sorry, broken promise, it would never last.
Another chance to move on and forget the past.
And I'll buy you coffee to go.
And I'll hold your hand.

This is the best day of my life.
And you'll never know.
This is the best day of my life.
And you'll never know.

This is the last day.
This is the last day.
This is the last day.
This is the last day.

This is the last day of our life.

Come Dance With Me

Kick off you shoes c'mon and dance with me.
I'll kiss your hand, you'll kiss my cheek (awoah)
Your hair is swinging to the beat.
I see you laughing through your teeth (awoah)

We're going overboard.
And my heart just can't take the beating.
This song just keeps on playing.
And your feet just keep on moving.

Your smile is everything I need.
Let's make this dance the biggest scene (awoah)
Your eyes are telling my it's right.
Spin around, you know I'll hold you tight (awoah)

We're going overboard.
And my heart just can't take the beating.
This song just keeps on playing.
And your feet just keep on moving.


Broken Windows

Broken windows and stolen hearts.
Let's get drunk and,
Take the shots of brand new life.
That awaits us all.

Let's pretend we followed our dream,
Fast cars and shows on MTV.
And I know it's wrong.
We'll say.

And I know that you have.
To bring back those times that we never could last.
And I'll say that we were wrong
To bring back those times when I knew you were gone.

Hearts racing as your sneaking out.
You drive away with the music so damn loud.
And I know it's wrong.
We'll say.

And I know that you have said,
To bring back those times that we never could last.
And I'll say that we were wrong,
To bring back those times when I knew you were gone.

And I'd say that we were so alone.
Bringing back those times like we never did.
And I'd say that we would own the world.
Moving too slow and were out of control.
I know we were.
I'll never stop trying 'till my heart explodes.

Catchy stuff, in a way. The lyrics seem to have a little bit of meaning to them, as appose to most stuff in that genre. You got any tunes to go with that stuff?

Do you happen to have chord progressions and/or melody lines for these songs? The lyrical quality of them is absolutely beautiful - I'd love to hear them put to music at least digitally or via piano.

Well this is the band MySpace. It has only one of the songs posted. You can hear 3 other songs though.

I like the fist one, Hung from the heart, I like the coffee to go line. It really does sound like a song. Although maybe Coffee To Go as title will be better? Hehe. Kidding. Probably wouldn't sound Blink182-y or something.

I like the dancing song too. It's almost like, just reading the lyrics, there is a certain musicality to it already. Haha.

Keep writing.

Thanks. I'll post some more songs. Amor Caelum, 'Love Heaven' in latin, and maybe one more. Glad you like 'em. Did you also listen to Hung From The Heart?

Not yet. I reveiwed the lyrics first. I'll listen now though wait.

edit: I listened and you guys sounded cool. I like hung from the heart best. Although maybe a little second voicing will help you guys sound better. I think. Or that's just me the choir person. Certain echo and overlapping voices in places will make it sound better. Cool guitar rifts though.

Amor Caelum

Never used to be like holding hands.
Never thought it would be like this.
Remember our first kiss?
In the front seat cheating on your boyfriend.
In the driveway patiently racing time.
Wishing you were mine.

We've got what most people can't get.
We're running away with it.
We're holding eyes and never looking back.
I hid the roses in the car.
Hoping I'd melt your heart.
Grabbing them slowly and breathing in deeply.

Take my hand now, I'm running away.
Love will fall from the heaven above, you'll see.
She's chasing love like she wanted me.
You waited for months, and now I'm all yours.

Take away those times when I was wrong.
Write me letters, write me notes, piss off your mom.
I'm holding on to you.
Every second, every day I'm loving you.
Take a deep breath just me and you.

Take my hand now, I'm running away.
Love will fall from the heaven above, you'll see.
She's chasing love like she wanted me.
You waited for months, and now I'm all yours.

Take It Away

When everybody's gone.
We still party on.
Just waste your night at the beach alone.
Don't follow everyone.
Just start a crowd of your own.
When I leave it's you verse everyone.

And as you sit down on that beach.
Lay back and I'll begin to tease.
Too far, too far your love is gone.
Sit back and watch the world get lost.

Take it away now.
It's said and done.
It's all over.
It's lost and won.
She's a sucker for lovers, and
Nothing is better than this
She's tired of waiting
And tired of wasting my time.

Hold on, hold on you're on your own.
Take it back, take a step.
It's all you're known.
18 goin' on 21.
A bottle under and her heart burns like the sun.


Take it away now.
It's said and done.
It's all over.
It's lost and won.
She's a sucker for lovers, and
Nothing is better than this
She's tired of waiting
And tired of wasting my time.

[break(sang slower)]
Take it away now.
It's said and done.
It's all over.
It's lost and won.
She's a sucker for lovers, and
Nothing is better than this
She's tired of waiting
And tired of wasting my time.


Take it away now.
It's said and done.
It's all over.
It's lost and won.
She's a sucker for lovers, and
Nothing is better than this
She's tired of waiting
And tired of wasting my time.
