This is a work of song lyrics I wrote from 8/23 to 8/25/05. Most of it was done on the 23rd, and then I finished it earlier tonight.
It's generally about confusion with myself. It's mostly confusion about what I was, and frustration with the feelings that I have right now, because of that. People that I know, see a wealth of potential in me as far as making a name for myself in society goes. I just can't seem to understand that, because I'm not really accomplishing much. Also, me saying that would just be idiocy if I weren't trying, but I am. Anyway, that's the basic idea here. -Hope you all like it.
"Tread"
Some say I'm an ocean.
I feel like a sea-floor, run dry.
Will the fossils
arise and come, to life?
That's what I'm dreading,
with confidence treading
in waters not so warm.
If it's true, then waves
cease to be,
and none of this makes sense to me.
(Chorus):
I don't belong.
The water's calm,
decieving all who stand upon shores.
The shelf drops off,
but depth is lost,
except for trenches wedging in towards to the core.
How am I an ocean
when I always seem to lack life?
All the bottles,
with messages, are right.
But sometimes, an eddy
brings me back to fretting,
and I was not fore-warned.
If it's true, then waves
cease to be.
I'm failing to make sense of me.
(Chorus)
(Short Interlude, to begin Bridge):
There are only ghosts around now.
-Some that haunt.
-Some that I miss.
(Repeat last part once more)
There are only ghosts around now;
drawing closer to me...
Will I become one?
(Chorus)
I don't belong.
I don't belong.
Am I that body of water,
or am I really(,) just a sea of piss...?

I'm not sure about "fore-warned" being written the right way, in this. When typed out, it doesn't look grammatically correct, to me. If anybody knows for sure, let me know. I'm not too worried about it though, so if it is truly wrong, unless you guys think that it would be better corrected, I'll probably just leave it. Lastly, if the very last line seemed a little odd, think about it for a second. It's got a symbolic meaning to it that should be pretty easy to see. Later! |
