Hate Song

Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 3:55 pm

I write you a love song,
Dot the 'I''s with hearts,
and underline each word,
asif it makes it mean somthing,
more than just marks on a page,
Words are meaningless,
(If) you don't feel the way I do,
about you,
It's too bad these words are drowned out,
by your tears.

I'm fed up with writing love songs that you'll never hear,
And I'm fed up with waking up from nights apart from you,
And I'm fed up with writing love songs that you'll never hear,
And I'm sorry you don't feel the same.

I tear up this love song,
Smear the page with ink,
and cross out every word,
asif it makes it go away,
makes me stop feeling this way,
Words are everything,
When they are spelt,
right,
I stick the words back in my mouth,
And choke them back down,

I'm fed up with writing love songs that you'll never hear,
And I'm fed up with waking up from nights apart from you,
And I'm fed up with writing love songs that you'll never hear,
And I'm sorry you don't feel the same.

These thoughts of mine won't,
go away,
And neither will you,
You're engraved,
In the back of my mind,
The scars have dried,
But they're still there,

I'm fed up with writing love songs that you'll never hear,
And I'm fed up with waking up from nights apart from you,
And I'm fed up with writing love songs that you'll never hear,
And I'm sorry you don't feel the same.

Tom,

I think this one might be my favorite out of all the songs that I've read, by you. It seems like you just kind of wove this together like a quilt. It's very cool. Great job, and keep it up. Cheers to you, and your pen!

your lyrics get better and better each time you post. this is by far the best.

i love:

"I write you a love song,
Dot the 'I''s with hearts,
and underline each word,
as if it makes it mean somthing"

and:

"I'm fed up with writing love songs that you'll never hear,
And I'm fed up with waking up from nights apart from you,
And I'm fed up with writing love songs that you'll never hear,
And I'm sorry you don't feel the same."

Those are awesome lines.

First of all; thankyou. Secondly. You're actually right. This song was 'woven together' from my memories of a song I had writen the night before... but had lost because of my computer f**king up.

I remembered the chorus (which was originally the verse)... but nothing more; so set about the verses. I then remembered the original chorus... which you will now see as a bridge.

At first I was pissed about losing it... but now I'm glad I did. This seems a lot better to me than the original.

Speaking of remembering lines;

"I was dancing in the fire,
Now I'm standing in the ashes"

I wrote that song ages ago... and forgot it... but I love those lines so much, you can expect to be seeing them recycled into a new song whenever I get round to it. Razz

Nice song dude you realy are an good song artist.Do you write in your band or do you do something else

Posted: Mon Jul 18, 2005 1:25 pm

Thanks dude.

I write for a band... although some of what I write, like this song for example, are a little too quite for our band, and so are reserved for me and an acoustic guitar.

I'm excited. Only a month untill we can record properly Very Happy

I'll usually review others' lyrics... but lately I havn't had a need to write much, so in turn havn't been visiting here as often as I was.

I'll try and have a read through and let you know what you think... but don't expect me to review more than a few at a time. Razz
