Title: Lights Out
Description: a rant on highschool

I’m sick of all the lies
We stare at everyday.
I’m tired of all the “Demons
You keep at bay.”

We all say we know how to live
When our whole lives are still ahead,
And we claim to know what’s best for us
Then half of us wind up dead.

We hate the way we are,
But everyone else is worse.
Parental guidance is just another piece of the curse.

If we want to live life
Why can’t we do it in our sleep,
Where nothing goes wrong.
______________How sweet.

I’m cutting off the lies
And I’m dicing up the truth.
Whatever there is to life I can find on my own.

So keep dragging me along
With a tight leather collar,
But I’ll never be the kind
To bow down to the American dollar.

If cutting out these lies
Means cutting out these eyes,
Don’t be surprised
If I don’t even flinch.

I’ve got my touch, my taste, and sound
That can lead my way around
This world.

I’ll just travel inch by inch;
Just travel flinch by flinch;
Not by these leaps and years
That the rest of you follow.

I’ll stop to ponder
As I aimlessly wander
Into my haze of existence.

Try it sometime, you might find something.


Just another one of my many lyrics that may or may not be used....

Figured I'd pop in and let you guys know why I've disappeared completely, since I'm now frontman and songwriter for two bands and a replacement bassist for two others, the replacement gigs make some good money at least ^_^

For those of you in California Bay Area-ish zone, send me a PM if you're up for a good rock show.

I do miss the days on this forum :( I always promise to make some triumphant return and it never happens, so I'll just promise to pop by every now and then to let you know I'm alive and well.

Long live pie :ihavepie:

P.S. - Is there anybody left from the Gametalk clan that migrated here....?

Nice to see you!

Sch-wah... :huh:

Anyways, I thought Trace's little message was pretty pathetic, so even though I never really met you, just wanted to say good luck in your music career, and have fun. :lol:

Let's just say my writing is different than reality....

Not to mention I kind of have to be groveling at the feet of the American dollar or else I'll be another homeless musician.

I guess..I'm kinda....from Gametalk..... I found FEW looking through old GT pages if that counts! it was only like a month after it opened! I BELONG! XD too funny.

Good to see you though GL, long time no see.

Now when you say rock, what kind of rock are you talking about here? What would you compare your sound to?


Edit: I just read the lyrics, kinda dark dude...

"So keep dragging me along
With a tight leather collar,
But I’ll never be the kind
To bow down to the American dollar."

Cooooooooooooooool.

I just got lucky and joined the week of the switch, I'm not much better than you are XD


My bands are an interesting mix actually...

One group is a funk/alternative/jazz group (in that order).
One is a psychobilly/punk/alternative group.

Trying to get a little bit of everything ^^

My rebuttal comes in two phases:

1) Your mom
2) on my cock.

He was the leader of Sacae for a while (which was my country at the time) so a simple "Nice to see ya" is good enough without having to back hand another poster or sucking up. -_-
