Have you ever been addited to anything and you want an answer to stop yourself on doing it well i wanted to make a thread about it.Hey you may be like hey this has nothing to do with music f**k this well it does.we want you to write a song on what addictions and tell us what the song is about that you have had in the past or present and post it in this thread dont be scared we all have problems and you cant have it all buried inside of you because that does makes everything worst dont you think.

This song is about a friend of mine who has wanking problems and he cant stop. so am writing a song on how he feels but i need you guys to post answers for him to stop wanking and him having bad imagies in his head please his only thirteen.well heres the song.

I thought i came to this world to solve problems
with evreyone turned into happy
with no problems or frustration
but i turned out that i have an addiction
that i keep on having irrections
and it keeps on happing all the time
it keeps on messing up my mind
am tring all i can to try to find the answer
on why this keeps hapening
before it...........

seems am on this on my own
it seems that am on this with no one
no one can understand my messery
its seems am better on my own
before i detroy everythin i ever known

This problems are unstopable
i never thought i would feel so messerable
why did this have to happen to me
"am only a kid"
that came to this world to help people out
but it seems i came to this world to make people hear me out
i have no were to run
"i am a prisoner in my own mind"
am tring all i can to find the answer
on why this keeps hapening
before it.......

seems am on this on my own
it seems am on this with no one
no one can understand my messery
it seems am better on my own
before i detroy everything i ever known

bad imagies will not stop me
bad dreams will not destroy me
i will fight till the end
on till all of this is dead
"because i have to destory you"
am tring to find the answer
on why this keeps hapening
before it......

seems am on this on my own
it seems am on this with no one
no one can understand my messery
it seems am better on my own
before i destroy everythin i ever known

am tring to find the answer
on why this keeps hapening
before it destorys me.

Not to make fun, but interesting subject matter. I've heard many people struggle with the addiction that your friend has, though everyone seems to turn it into a joke. I don't think it's a joke, because addictions can be more than a physical thing.

Also, I'm not addicted to that, but I do have a more common addiction cigarettes. It completely boggles my mind that many people can just stop smoking cold turkey, when I have tried that countless times, only to light one up again. People sometimes tell me, "Get the gum, or the patch," or, "See a doctor, and get them to help you." The problem is, I am currently unemployed, I don't have a license or a car (due to strong fears), and therefore, I have very little money. Yes, that includes money for cigarettes.

I will keep this thread in mind, and if I am able to write a song about being addicted to cigarettes, I'll post it here. I've written one in the past, called, "The Habit", but it's been a long time, and I think I could write a better one if I sat down and wrote a new one. Hmm... I'm wondering if I should find it, and re-work it... I dunno'. Whatever comes of this, you (Bullet41) and everyone else will know about the song, if, and when, it is written. Cheers!

No offense intended... but if you want people to take you serious as a songwriter, I suggest writing about more matur subject matter than 'wanking problems'. Razz

Lyrically, the song isn't too bad... but I realy think it is almost impossible for somebody without a real addiction to portray the strong emotions that adictions can bring about.

The song I just posted is the only song to dat I have ever writen about adictions; and I realy feel the emotional content is weak... as it's hard for me to envisage adiction to say; crack cocaine or herroine to my adiction of nicotene.

The only real subject matter I have been able to master to a level which I am happy with is that of 'feelings'... as I get the feeling this is easier. A real song writer should be able to write about anything.

I agree with Tom about the subject of your song being a difficult one to write about, and also to portray strong emotions while doing it. The reason being, many people would just look at the subject and take it as some kind of humorous song.
-Not saying yours is, just that some could think that.

However, I made an attempt to re-work that song I mentioned, "The Habit", and I think I did alright. You guys tell me. I decided to change the title to "Smoke-Filled Room", because I thought it fit better. Honestly, when reading this you may not think it's that great, lyrically, but the emotion is mildly strong when I sing it, and that's what makes it work, for me. Last thing I'll say before I post the song, is that I know my addiction to cigarettes is both common, and not as bad as other addictions, and that is definitely not what I am trying to say by writing this song. Anyway, here it is:

"Smoke-Filled Room"

As my cigarette burns away,
lack of will is holding me, a slave,
today.
It's a battle internally.
Smoke is rising, like a cloud,
and engulfing me.

(Pre-Chor.):
I know the consequences,
but these enclosing fences are like a cage.
Everytime I try to climb,
a force-field ceiling pushes me-

(Chorus):
back down,
into my smoke-filled room.
I take another hit,
then grab the broom,
and try to sweep away the habit.
But the black shroud,
returns,
and I stay in my smoke-filled room.

(The) deepest, orange glow is plaguing me.
I'm bound within an odor, no escape,
disgraced.
I'm unsettled, though it's vaguely seen.
(The) clean air rising, above the cloud
that keeps surrounding me.

(Pre-Chor.)

(Chorus)

(Bridge):
Ashes rain down on me.
Pathetic- That's how I seem to be.
I'm short of breath now,
yet I, still feel the need.

I do this, though I know what it could bring:
great complications and suffering.
I can't stop...
All efforts fail, I can't,
stop.....

(brief period of non-verbal vocalizations)

(Pre-Chor.)

(Chorus)

As my cigarette, burns away...-
As it burns away I feel disgusted.

If you're compelled to, leave a comment, or any questions you have. I see some parts of what I wrote, that may seem a little confusing, but if it's not a mistake, and if you ask about them, I can explain those parts. I hope this was a good attempt at what I was going for. Cheers, All!

I'm not sure who that was directed towards, but just to tell you (non-offensively), that can be an addiction. I'll be honest with you. I had emotional troubles, and I was hospitalized due to trying to "end me," and while I was there, one of the therapists (the drug counselor) told a group of us about a friend of hers who struggled with that very problem. She said that addiction isn't completely physical, and can sometimes be, mainly, a psychological thing. If you don't believe me, that's fine, but what I've said is completely factual.

Also, this wasn't me flipping out. You'll find I don't have many cares in life, because I don't believe that I should. I just felt the need to give a response, and it's not meant to upset you. So, aside from that, welcome to the UBW. I'll check out your posts as I see them. Later!

P.S.- Drugs have not been, and will likely never be, a problem for me. For some reason they make people listen to all the counselors.

i think this is getting pretty weird. but it doesnt make me angry or moody at all, maybe thats just me, but then again i dont do it 24 hours a day everyday.

Posted: Wed Aug 24, 2005 3:27 pm

I'ma agree.

I think I've grown out of the whole masterbating stage of my life... but I don't recall it ever giving me any anger or anything Confused

Posted: Wed Aug 24, 2005 10:19 pm

Lol... Wow.

I've never heard anything about mood swings being associated with that. But it seems to me that if that happens, it's one of those very uncommon ocurrences. Anyway, I'm gonna' go look at other stuff now. Later!

This is truly bizarre. Not sure what to think- most girls don't exactly have "wanking problems". Kinda weirding me out though........
