NOTHING BETTER

tell me am i right to think that there could be nothing better...than making you my bride, and slowly growing old together...

the promise

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me, I promise, I promise you I will...

empty apartment


Call me out
You stayed inside
One you love
Is where you hide
Shot me down
As I flew by
Crash and burn
I think sometimes
You forget where the heart is

Answer no to these questions
Let her go, learn a lesson
It's not me, you're not listening
Now, can't you see something's missing
You forget where the heart is

Take you away from that empty apartment
You stay, and forget where the heart is
Someday if ever you loved me you'd say, it's okay

Waking up from this nightmare
How's your life?
What's it like there?
Is it all what you want it to be?
Does it hurt when you think about me?
And how broken my heart is

Take you away from that empty apartment
You stay, and forget where the heart is
Someday if ever you loved me you'd say, it's okay

It's okay to be angry and never let go
It only gets harder the more that you know
When you get lonely if no one's around
You know that I'll catch you when you're falling down
We came together but you left alone
And I know how it feels to walk out on your own
Maybe someday I will see you again
And you'll look me in my eyes and call me your friend

Take you away from that empty apartment
You stay, and forget where the heart is
Someday if ever you loved me you'd say, it's okay

It's okay
It's okay

the good fight


Consider the odds,
Consider the obvious.
The martyr is meaningless,
The campaign has died.
In the planning stages and the fallen faces
Are the singular proof that it was ever alive.

This purchased rebellion has been outbidded,
Denounced and rescinded and left to die championless.
I begged you not to go. I begged you, I pleaded.
Claimed you as my only hope
And watched the floor as you retreated.

Hope has sprung a perfect dive
A perfect day, a perfect lie.
A slowly crafted monologue conceding your defeat.

Does it comfort you to know you fought the good fight?
Basking in your victory,
Hollow and alone
While you boast your bitter bragging rights to anyone who'll listen.
While you're left with nothing tangible to gain.

for you to notice



i'm starting to fashion an idea in my head
where I would impress you
with every single word I said.
Would come out insightful...
or brave...
or smooth...
or charming...
and you'd want to call me...

and I would be there every time
you'd need me
I'd be there every time...

but for now I'll look so longingly waiting...
for you to want me...

for you to need me...

for you to notice me...


here's my version of this song
for you to notice(...

round one


i'm trapped in this prison
my mind can't escape
panic-stricken....
lost in this delusion
drifting...
wandering in my wretchedness

standing here
staring at a blank wall
waiting for your call

my mind tells me to hate you
yet my heart loves you so
my mind wants to move on
but my heart just can't let go


distant have i been
to everyone i know
totally absorbed in this mystery
of why you had to let go

standing here
staring at a blank wall
waiting for your call

my mind tells me to hate you
yet my heart loves you so
my mind wants to move on
but my heart just can't let go

i wont choose...
i wont decide...
i wanna stay here...
forever lost and empty...




gloom forever



you are the princess of my darkest dreams
a perfect end for my bittersweet revenge

you are a worhty opponent
in defeat, i came crashing
you've taken my treasure
its essence, i never learned to hold

you made happiness escape from my soul
gloomy will be my days to come
forever trapped in grief's shadow

revenge for you...
let's settle the score

war within my thoughts
i know i can't win
an illussion of bliss
eternal melancholy within

i hate girls



frantic have i become
with all these worthless thoughts of you...
wretched and depressed
happiness seems so far away...

i hate girls...
and the girls will hate me...
i have no luck with girls...
and they'll find none with me...

distant have i been
to everyone who resembles you...
alone and cold
a gloomy day awaits...


i hate girls...
and the girls will hate me...
i have no luck with girls...
and they'll find none with me...

love hurts...
love is shit...
love really sucks...
yet it's all that i fuckin' need...


the velorium camper II: backend of forever



Rocked silent in a soft lullaby
panic stirred me awakened by a ringing phone in time
where and when would I see her?
Crazy were the words that scribbled out your mouth
I stuttered replacing your face to those words
where and when would I kill her?
I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this
I, I'll wish... to the bitter end of my day
Well, where were you?

So you had your turn and you made it work
now I'm the laughing stock of your joke
as crazy as it may seem I cried for you when you
told me to date all of the things that made you end up in my life
and I'll believe anything I have no luck with girls
I overheard that you were unhappy too
misleading trust into a relationship that makes no sense
over and out Connecticut
but you had your back turned there as you faded away
at the end of my day I found out
you weren't worth what I thought of you
what I thought of you

write this down in your diary you abuse
can we make plans can I just get through to you
is this weird...do I scare her?
I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this
I, I'll wish... that you could share the love you'd shared with others, with me

This isn't love so forever let it go...forever let it burn
This isn't love there on the backend of forever
I wish I would never hurt again

Coheed And Cambria...

the velorium camper III: al the killer


At birth given scars along tender heart liberties
injustice for awkward living situated casualties
they lay dead along your floor
careful not to wake them they're sleeping
in the morrows good mourning
the dying will discard the wish to live

Let this colony know in the name of the dead we're coming

When I kill her, I'll have her
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon your name
Die white girls, die white girls
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon the graves of the dead

You'll get nothing for something
arise the hidden war of a dead song, unsung
the night of your children's day
beneath the surface sealed by the floors boarded up
seal the lips of your voice with haste
and cower at the sounds as they make their way
surprise speed and malice
the opposing break the surface hold ready

Let this colony know in the name of the dead we're coming

When I kill her, I'll have her
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon your name
Die white girls, die white girls
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon the graves of the dead

Will the killing veil love should the heroes play dumb
but killing's no fun when the heroes are none

Let this colony know in the name of the dead we're coming

Bye, bye world, bye, bye world
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon your name
Die white girls, die white girls
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon the graves of the dead

Bye, bye world, bye, bye world
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon your name
Die white girls, bye, bye world
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon the graves of the dead,
Upon the graves of the dead, upon the graves!

Coheed And Cambria...

hands down for kai


Breathe in for luck.
Breathe in so deep.
This air is blessed, you share with me.
This night is wild, so calm and dull.
These hearts, they race, from self-control.
Your legs are smooth, as they graze mine.
We're doing fine.
We're doing nothing at all.

My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me.
So won't you kill me?
So I die happy.
My heart is yours to fill or burst,
to break or bury, or wear as jewelry.
Whichever you prefer.

The words are hushed, "let's not get busted."
Just lay entwined here, undiscovered.
Safe in here from all the stupid questions.
"Hey did you get some?"
Man that is so dumb.
Stay quiet, stay near, stay close, they can't hear.
So we can get some.

My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me.
So won't you kill me?
So I die happy.
My heart is yours to fill or burst,
to break or bury, or wear as jewelry.
Whichever you prefer.

Hands down this is the best day I can ever remember.
Always remember the sound of the stereo.
The dim of the soft lights.
The scent of your hair, that you twirled in your fingers.
And the time on the clock, when we realized "It's so late!"
And this walk that we share together.
The streets were wet, and the gate was locked,
So I jumped it, and let you in.
And you stood at the door, with your hands on my waist.
And you kissed me like you meant it.
And I knew...that you meant it.

hands down for kai...

welcome home


You could've been all I wanted
But you weren't honest
Now get in the ground
You choked off the surest of favors
But if you really loved me
You would've endured my world

Well you're just as I presumed
A whore in sheep's clothing
Fucking up all I do
And if so here we stop
Then never again
Will you see this in your life

Hang on to the glory at my right hand
Here laid to rest is our love ever longed
With truth on the shores of compassion
You seem to take premise to all of these songs

You stormed off to scar the armada
Like Jesus played letter,
I'll drill through your hands
The stone for the curse you have blamed me
With love and devotion, I'll die as you sleep
But if you could just write me out
To neverless wonder... happy will I become
Be true that this is no option,
So with sin I condemn you
Demon play, demon out!

Hang on to the glory at my right hand
Here laid to rest is our love ever longed
With truth on the shores of compassion
You seem to take premise to all of these songs

One last kiss for you
One more wish to you
Please make up your mind girl...
I'd do anything for you
One last kiss for you
One more wish to you
Please make up your mind girl...
Before I hope you die

Coheed and Cambria...

your own disaster


just think of this and me
as just a few of the many things
to lie around,
to clutter up your shelves
and I wish you weren't worth the wait
cause there are some things
that I'd like to say to you

And I don't think that you know
what you've been missing
cause I don't think that you know
what you've been missing

and I dare you to forget
the marks you left across my neck
from those nights when we were both found at our best
now I could make this obvious and you,
you could deny me
all in one breath
you could shrug me off your shoulders

And I don't think that you know
what you've been missing
cause I don't think that you know
what you've been missing
And I don't think that you know
said I don't think that you know
said I don't think that you know
what you've been missing

hey lush, have fun
it's the weekend
hey lush, have fun
hey lush, have fun
it's the weekend
hey lush, have fun

no I don't think that you know
what you've been missing...
no I don't think that you know
what you've been missing...

just forget me, it's that simple...
forget me...
it's that simple...

here's (my) version2 of this song:
your own disaster ...

which one is better?




dusk and summer


She smiled in a big way
The way a girl like that smiles
When the world is hers And she held your eyes
Out in the breezeway down by the shore
In the lazy summer

And she pulled you in
And she bit your lip
And she made you hers
She looked deep into you as you lay together
Quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer

But you've already lost...
But you've already lost...
But you've already lost...
When you only had barely enough to hang on...

And she combed your hair
And she kissed your teeth
And she made you better than you'd been before
And she told you bad things you wished you could change
In the lazy summer

And she told you laughing down to her core

So she would not cry
And she lay in your lap as she said
Nobody here can live forever
Quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer

But you've already lost...
But you've already lost...
But you've already lost...
When you only had barely enough to hang on...

She said No one is alone the way you are alone
And you held her looser than you would’ve if you ever couldve known
Some things tie your life together
With slender threads of things to treasure
Days like that should last and last and last

When you only have barely enough of her....
To hang on...
Hang on...
Hang on...
Hang on...
