Thoughts please my lovelies! :D


Roll the dice, and take a slide

Logic doesn't apply to this thing we call life

Mistakes are made here in the shade

But in the light of day scars can fade

Let's convolute, through twisted tides

Make our own rules in our own paradise

We can't just stand at Heaven's gates

Waiting for our hearts to break


Paradise

I can see it with my extinguished eyes

And it's calling me, calling me

Paradise

With rewards larger than the price

So follow me, follow me

To paradise

I have my own troubles and my vice

Won't let it bother me, bother me

Paradise

Just give me the chance to be alive

In paradise


We can voyage forth driving the hearse

But are we on the right side of the dirt?

If we're going to kill, why kill ourselves

With torture we know only too well?

This is a game no-one can win

And in losing we're back to where we begin

But I can be your shelter, burning cocoon

Illuminate your lonely nights if I'm the moon


Paradise

I can see it with my extinguished eyes

And it's calling me, calling me

Paradise

With rewards larger than the price

So follow me, follow me

To paradise

I have my own troubles and my vice

Won't let it bother me, bother me

Paradise

Just give me the chance to be alive

In paradise


And in the final hour when all hope is slain

How will you find the courage to breathe again?

Invigored eyes will turn to monochrome

Vibrancy replaced with dark empty holes

Let’s go down, underground to a secret place

Under the sea, you and me, surrounding us with grace

Take me to bits, kiss my lips, and renew my soul

Hold me close on this coast and never let go


In Paradise

I can see it with my extinguished eyes

And it's calling me, calling me

Paradise

With rewards larger than the price

So follow me, follow me

To paradise

I have my own troubles and my vice

Won't let it bother me, bother me

Paradise

Just give me the chance to be alive

In paradise

urgh this forum is a joke,and its not even like the majority of people even produce anything of any talent, this place is full of jobworths and dull as ditchwater, don't give up the day jobs kids, for your own sakes

Gosh, We have been honoured, if only we could have guessed at the sheer scale of your genius we would have been even more humble. I suppose you will take the very specialness of your wonderfulness somewhere else now, shame.

Yeah I suppose I will :)

I don't think I'm wonderful, but at least I'm actually at a level where I've achieved and am actually working day and night to further achieve what I want... the people on this board treat this like some stupid little hobby to fill in the spare minutes in their lives and moan and bitch at everyone for every stupid little thing.. what's worse, nobody seems to have any sort of technical expertise or any knowledge full stop about any of this! So sorry if I lost it a little there, but some people on this forum need to check themselves dramatically.

Actually there are some very talented people on this board a lot of them have earned a living and raised families working in the music industry. But as you say most of us are just amateurs. However it’s a mutually supportive community and it works.

 And I prefer you when your spiteful, you`re funny. ;)

There's nothing funny about my achievements and my passion for creativity, but as you were

Apologies It seems I was wrong, I did post with the best intentions on the basis of what I had previously been told. However there is a previous post from the site mods stating that any number of posts can be made in Lyrics and Collab`s.

Again apologies john

A terrible set of lyrics ,  even if they  qualify to be called so.

This is a particularly awful verse

''But I can be your shelter, burning cocoon

Illuminate your lonely nights if I'm the moon''

SFX ..if you want to be rude and up yourself, fine...but at least have some talent mate.

That's okay, I'm sorry I got defensive and bitchy, it was uncalled for so I apologize too

look I'm sorry SFX but I've been on this forum for a long time, I don't post much but I've never seen anyone be rude to anyone else on this forum. Especially not the entire forum at once. We're a close community here and nobody takes kindly to people who would say things like that. I don't think we'd be much help to such an amazing talent like you so it'd be nice if you could take your lyrics elsewhere. And god knows if you were the famous PhD'd writer you say you are you wouldn't be going on a forum to see if your lyrics are good; leading on from that: At the sorry state your lyric writing is you are at no place to say nobody on here could create anything of talent. Frankly with this piece I've seen more talent in a bloody nursery rhyme
