Laughter on the Murder Scene

Hide your eyes
Life these days is relentless
It’s all I can do to try not to forget this
Still dreaming in grey scale
Haven’t felt your touch, I need to
It could be the only thing to ever
Make me feel alive

This is what they’d call a romance
If they could see it, they could see it
If they could feel our hearts beating
I can’t even paint these pictures in my mind
It’s so much more than just
Trying to feel alive

Never thought I’d say it but
I hate being so lonely
You’re the only person I’ve
Ever really wanted to be next to

Is there something wrong
With this story?
Just wait,
Wait for the ending

There’s nothing wrong
With our story
Just wait,
Wait for the ending

This is what they’d call a romance
If they could see it, they could see it
If they could feel our hearts beating
I can’t even paint these pictures in my mind
It’s so much more than just
Trying to feel alive

Thank you for
Bringing this back to me
And in return I’ll be the one
Who’ll hold you in your dreams
Kiss your closed eyes while you sleep

And I just want to let you know
You never are, never will be alone
(I close my eyes and think of you,
I’ll close my eyes and call this home)

This is what they’d call a romance
If they could see it, they could see it
If they could feel our hearts beating
I can’t even paint these pictures in my mind
It’s so much more than just
Trying to feel alive

I stay awake and wonder
If these nights, if these days
Will be as easy as it is to tell you
It will be okay
Will we be okay?

I’m never going to fall into a dreamless sleep
(Never going to fall into a dreamless sleep)
Without you here with me
Your words are the rhythm of my life

I’m never going to fall into a dreamless sleep
(Never going to fall into a dreamless sleep)
Without you here with me
These words are the soundtrack to my life

This is what they’d call a romance
If they could see it, they could see it
If they could feel our hearts beating
I can’t even paint these pictures in my mind
It’s so much more than just
Trying to feel alive

And I just want to let you know
You never are, never will be alone
(I close my eyes and think of you,
I’ll close my eyes and call this home)

Pull back the covers till we’re only in ourselves
And everything that this has become
Resist the urge to run
When they tell us that we’re never going to make it
Well, I know we’re going to make it

Is there something wrong
With this story?
Just wait,
Wait for the ending

There’s nothing wrong
With our story
Just wait,
Wait for the ending


This is what they’d call a romance
If they could see it, they could see it
If they could feel our hearts beating
I can’t even paint these pictures in my mind
It’s so much more than just
Trying to feel alive

And I just want to let you know
You never are, never will be alone
(I close my eyes and think of you,
I’ll close my eyes and call this home)

And I just want to let you know
You’ll never be alone

It was lovely, my dear, simply beautiful <3

The title is so ominous, but the lyrics are so sweet. I especially like the verse

There’s nothing wrong
With our story
Just wait,
Wait for the ending

Heh, thanks. The title is actually a bit of an inside joke with the person I wrote it for/about.

That was absolutlely beatiuful, Tosha! It would make an awesome song!

Tell us! Pwease?

Well, we were just talking about the crime rate in certain areas. He said that there were often more than two murders a day, you just didn't hear about them. I replied by asking how he knew they happened if he didn't hear about them on the news. He said, "Well, they find the bodies later". We both were laughing, and then I said that we should stop because murder isn't funny...Good times.

'Life on the Murder Scene' could also have something to do with it; MCR fan by chance? The title similarity is okay, though.

That little bit aside, I liked it; simple theme, excellent choice of wording, and I could easily picture the way the song sounds in my mind. A good thing. My favorite line:

Pull back the covers till we’re only in ourselves
And everything that this has become
Resist the urge to run
When they tell us that we’re never going to make it
Well, I know we’re going to make it.

Well the title did sound familiar when I came up with it, but I couldn't put my finger on where I'd heard it. Now I know =]. I'm not really a big MCR fan. Well, not enough of a fan to jack their titles...hah.

But thank you! That's pretty nifty that you can imagine how it would sound.

Very, nice Tosha! It is one of your best songs so far. These smiley's are for you:


*Note: Although acting over happy in every post I make is a dare, I actually feel this way about the song. =)

Thanks Jen =]. I'm glad it makes you happy. It makes me happy, too. Because it's about happy relationships, and happy relationships are happy things, and...

Thanks.

Alright, moving down...This one's called "Exits Lacking Numbers". It's kind of sad, but I feel that it has a subtle touch of contentment. Or maybe more like, acceptance of your situation. Anyway...

Exits Lacking Numbers

These words won’t last us the night
I really don’t think we’ve ever been alright
But define it
Is it the smiles we see, is it hands collided
Well, will we know when we get there?

Nowhere is just where we are
Here is where we lose it in this madness
A montage of eyes closed and hoping
That we escape ourselves in our dreams

Well is this what you wanted?
Be happy, he told me
That you only live once, well
I’d rather not live at all
And I’m not excited
For what we’re going to deal with
In the in end

Nowhere is just where we are
Here is where we lose it in this madness
A montage of eyes closed and hoping
That we escape ourselves in our dreams

And do you wish that we were at the funeral
Reading our eulogies out loud
For those who don’t believe it
And laughing because we’re here to see it

Nowhere is just where we are
Here is where we lose it in this madness
A montage of eyes closed and hoping
That we escape ourselves in our dreams

Nowhere is just where we are
Here is where we lose it, we lost it
In this montage of madness and eyes closed
And hoping that we leave it all in our dreams
And it seems
That this is something someone told me
Never to wish on others
And I wonder who
Wished it on me

And it seems
That this is something someone told me
Never to wish on others
And I wonder who
Wished it on me

Gorgeous, Tosha. ^^ Simply gorgeous.

The title is also very catchy. Hah.

Exits Lacking Numbers is certainly a catchy title! I think the song is bittersweet and has a somewhat elusive tone. The repetition of "well" in the first few verses seem to indicate some hesitation. I especially enjoyed the last verse.

A little confusing at first, but a nice song nevertheless. You do wonders, Tosha.

Thank you very much! You're an amazing poet and I'm flattered that you enjoyed my work. I think that "bittersweet" is the right word to describe it. Heh, and the title seems to be popular.

The last three lines of this stanza/verse are especially fantastic. Lovely, lovely, lovely.

Wow. All I can say is wow. I love how wonderfully you portray these feelings. I'm being broad because I can't quote one specific place, it's just all so great. You are quite lyrically talented, I must admit. I wish I was somwhere near this.

Well, I've praised you. Now I'm off to do other things and come back here every once in a while.

That was amazing, my dear. It's not gotten stale even though I read it more than once<3

That's right, kid. Once you enter, you can never fully leave! Mwaha! Haha, thanks.

Thank you very much <3. I'm glad that my songs don't go stale. The only thing meant to go stale is bread. And even then...

Everyone is right, Tosha.. these songs are amazing!! I can't believe how well you blended the lyrics together. Beautiful, just beautiful. You have a way with words, my friend. These are truly works of art!!
