These are some lyrics I finished on October 3rd, though it was only shortly past midnight. They're related in a way to most of my recent works, in the sense that many of them have seemed sad, or centered on things uncertain..., but this one says something like, "It feels like all the bad is trying to pull me back to depression, but I won't accept that invitation." That's all that really needs to be said, so have a read now, friends...
"RSVP"
-Rick, "RiCterMan," Strayer, fecit.
I see the things of past
down the hallway, trying to coax me back
there into the party-
the loneliest one ever thrown.
I will not return, no(!).
I will not return(!).
-Calling out my name,
they are calling in the voices of doom.
-New invitations
to the ugliest party room.
I will not return, no(!).
I will not return...
(Tempo becomes much, much slower, until start of 2nd verse)
I will not return.
I will not return.
(Chorus):
There are walls that block the doorways,
trapping you inside,
and curtains covering windows
to ensure you won't see light.
The floor, it rots beneath you,
and it wants to bring you down.
The air rolls a stench upon you
to evoke a cringe and frown.
-The party's on.
(Short Interlude, envisioned.)
The faces smirk and laugh,
as they try to hide the secrets of fact:
Their little party
is the emptiest hole in the Earth.
Well, I already know, and(!)
I will not return(!).
Reaching to attain
reacceptance, they are desperate and cruel.
They seek to salvage my soul
for their marvelous tomb.
I will not return, no(!).
I will not return...
(Tempo slows again.)
(Chorus)
(Short Interlude, envisioned, followed by an increase of the tempo, equivalent to that of the verses.)
So...,
I will not return, no.
I will not return.
I will not return, no.
No, I will not return.

That's the second of two songs in one day... It's been a long time since that happened, 'cause time and energy have been pretty low, when put together. I hope the words are enjoyable to some, and I hope everyone's livin' as much as possible. Love, friends... Later!
