If I could try and remember how it was
I would give anything to remember
But could I chose how it will end
Or just pretend?
Ill try to defend every word I've said
And I'll no longer be in dread
In my head
When my time calls for me to end,
Will I be invited?
When time comes to decide my fate,
Will I still be crying
I need to know....
Before I go
To that kingdom above...
If I could fly, I would
To see old faces once again
If I could show them all
That we are doing fine
Will they believe and keep me
In the cloudy place amongst the Earth
Or will they send me down
To the dirt?
When my time calls for me to end,
Will I be invited?
When time comes to decide my fate,
Will I still be crying
I need to know....
Before I go
To that kingdom above...
Still I'm losing my whole point of veiw
On my own...
If I could try and remember how it was
I would give anything to remember
But could I chose how it will end
Or just pretend?
Ill try to defend every word I've said
And I'll no longer be in dread
In my head
If I could fly, I would
To see old faces once again
If I could show them all
That we are doing fine
Will they believe and keep me
In the cloudy place amongst the Earth
Or will they send me down
To the dirt?
When my time calls for me to end,
Will I be invited?
When time comes to decide my fate,
Will I still be crying
I need to know....
Before I go
To that kingdom above...

New Song: Katherine (Fall In With You)
Hey, there's a gleam sparkling from your eyes
I thought it would fade over time
You seem to be upset for what he did to your world
But I will pick you up and raise your head
Give you a smile and then take you by the hand
And I'll become another romantic friend at the stand
Katherine
I'm going to give you my world
I'm going to cherish you even in unthinkable measures
I'm going to fall in with you
Your colored eyes always seem to follow me
When I think of you at night, I can hardly sleep
I want to show you I will be the one
Listen to every word and take care of your frustrations that come along
But for now, I will just write you a song
Katherine
I'm going to give you my world
I'm going to cherish you even in unthinkable measures
I'm going to fall in with you
I will not break this vow
I will save you somehow
I will never ever let you down
Katherine
I'm going to give you my world
I'm going to cherish you every single moment
With you in unthinkable measures
I'm going to fall in with you
Katherine
I'm going to give you my world
I'm going to cherish you every single moment
With you in unthinkable measures
I'm going to fall in with you
I thought it would fade over time
You seem to be upset for what he did to your world
But I will pick you up and raise your head
Give you a smile and then take you by the hand
And I'll become another romantic friend at the stand
Katherine
I'm going to give you my world
I'm going to cherish you even in unthinkable measures
I'm going to fall in with you
Your colored eyes always seem to follow me
When I think of you at night, I can hardly sleep
I want to show you I will be the one
Listen to every word and take care of your frustrations that come along
But for now, I will just write you a song
Katherine
I'm going to give you my world
I'm going to cherish you even in unthinkable measures
I'm going to fall in with you
I will not break this vow
I will save you somehow
I will never ever let you down
Katherine
I'm going to give you my world
I'm going to cherish you every single moment
With you in unthinkable measures
I'm going to fall in with you
Katherine
I'm going to give you my world
I'm going to cherish you every single moment
With you in unthinkable measures
I'm going to fall in with you

New Song: A Commitment Unresolved
It's a song about cheating. Enjoy!!!
'A Commitment Unresolved'
Does it workout in a peculiar way
Looking at the other as your keeping me astray
I want to look another way try to fight you away
You just got out of hand you psycho maniac
I tried to break up nicely but you left me with a lie
And started to fuck around with another guy
Are you sorry?
You just committed a social suicide
You're now losing
A perfectly imperfect guy
Why did you try to your best to build up
A suspense that doesn't quite comprehend the mess
Does it help to know a lie and then to realize
You were always dead inside with a venom
In a exhilarating tumult losing
All the touch within your clutch
To smile so politely you damned whore
As I told you before, get out my goddamn door
Are you sorry?
You just committed a social suicide
You're now losing
A perfectly imperfect guy
Why did you try to your best to build up
A suspense that doesn't quite comprehend the mess
Thank god it only lasted a few
I guess I got the best of you
Trying to divide a commitment unresolved
You go on with him without default
I guess I'm losing touch for caring too much
Just try to versify and look
Look to me to testify and witness a stupid lie
Are you sorry?
You just committed a social suicide
You're now losing
Can't believe you took the time
To set scheme that caused me a mental homicide
Just lay down and cry or wished you died
Why did you try your damn best to build up
A suspense that didn't quite comprehend this mess
A suspense that didn't quite comprehend this mess
A suspense that didn't quite comprehend this mess
'A Commitment Unresolved'
Does it workout in a peculiar way
Looking at the other as your keeping me astray
I want to look another way try to fight you away
You just got out of hand you psycho maniac
I tried to break up nicely but you left me with a lie
And started to fuck around with another guy
Are you sorry?
You just committed a social suicide
You're now losing
A perfectly imperfect guy
Why did you try to your best to build up
A suspense that doesn't quite comprehend the mess
Does it help to know a lie and then to realize
You were always dead inside with a venom
In a exhilarating tumult losing
All the touch within your clutch
To smile so politely you damned whore
As I told you before, get out my goddamn door

Can't believe you took the time
To set scheme that caused me a mental homicide

Why did you try your damn best to build up
A suspense that didn't quite comprehend this mess
A suspense that didn't quite comprehend this mess
A suspense that didn't quite comprehend this mess

The Return of a Classic: Try To Fly Again (Blinking Lights)
This was a song I posted a long time ago on the old MySpace blog. Since then, it has been restructured, re-imagine, and torn apart to become what it is. This is the finally official version of this song. I now present to you my favorite song in the way it was meant to be.
'Try To Fly Again (Blinking Lights)'
Time to stop
Time to breathe
It's so unreal
To see you crying
Sometimes I think
In the thick of it
I just didn't care enough
To deal with it
In the end will you still be here
Or leave me as the dividend?
The blinking lights
Pass for you
My mind wanders by and by
Thoughts of you
Who knew I try to fly again?
Who knew?
Stuck in a whirlwind
Is all I am
Sorry for giving up there
Better yet
I calmed down and raised my hopes
To see it though
I can't hold on anymore to you
The blinking lights
Pass for you
My mind wanders by and by
Thoughts of you
Who knew I try to fly again?
Who knew?
I would be failing at this lesson
I should have learned about it sooner
But I ignored the situation all along
And I can't seem to feel strong
I'm losing hope and losing you
Why did I ever think this through
Time to stop
Time to breathe
It's so unreal
To see you crying
The blinking lights
Pass for you
My mind wanders by and by
Thoughts of you
Who knew I try to fly again, again
These dimming lights
Fade for you
My mind wandered on and off
I've lost you
I knew I tried to fly again
Who knew?
Who knew?
Who knew?
Who knew?
These dimming lights
Fade for you
'Try To Fly Again (Blinking Lights)'

New Song: No One Other Than You (plus examples of R&B Artists)
Time for an R&b song. Yes, I wrote one. R&B means good old Rhythm and Blues and has been in the music industry for quite some time due to black artists such as Marvin Gaye, Al Green, Boyz II Men, and more recently Usher. This song in particular is inspired by the sounds of Ne-Yo, responsible for hits such as 'Sexy Love', 'Because of You', 'Closer', 'Miss Independent', and making an appearance in the Keri Hilson hit, 'Knock You Down'. This song is related in a way to his new song (for The upcoming Disney film, The Princess and The Frog), 'Never Knew I Needed'. Now for a song.
'No One Other Than You'
Oh, I know what your thinking
And you think I'll take your love and break it
But I would never ever do that to you
I'll show you what I can do
You need me more than I need you
You need to fall for
No one other then me
I need you more than you need me
I will fall for
No one other than you
The way you say my name (you say my name)
Makes me remember when I used to call your name
The ay you got your hold on me (hold on me)
I remember when I grabbed your hand
And I said I would be you man
You were afraid and scared
But you still accepted me as your one
You need me more than I need you
You need to fall for
No one other then me
I need you more than you need me
I will fall for
No one other than you
Remember when we fell in love
And I said I would take you up and above
We have been separated for so long
But you are coming back into my arms
You need me more than I need you
You need to fall for
No one other then me
I need you more than you need me
I will fall for
No one other than you
You need me more than I need you
You need to fall for
No one other then me
I need you more than you need me
I will fall for
No one other than you
'No One Other Than You'
Oh, I know what your thinking
And you think I'll take your love and break it
But I would never ever do that to you
I'll show you what I can do
You need me more than I need you
You need to fall for
No one other then me
I need you more than you need me
I will fall for
No one other than you
The way you say my name (you say my name)
Makes me remember when I used to call your name
The ay you got your hold on me (hold on me)
I remember when I grabbed your hand
And I said I would be you man
You were afraid and scared
But you still accepted me as your one
You need me more than I need you
You need to fall for
No one other then me
I need you more than you need me
I will fall for
No one other than you
Remember when we fell in love
And I said I would take you up and above
We have been separated for so long
But you are coming back into my arms
You need me more than I need you
You need to fall for
No one other then me
I need you more than you need me
I will fall for
No one other than you
You need me more than I need you
You need to fall for
No one other then me
I need you more than you need me
I will fall for
No one other than you

New Song: Make A Fix
Before you read, listen to 'Belle of the Boulevard' by Dashboard Confessional to develop a beat for 'Make A Fix'.
Down along this corridor
I see an open door
As you stand beside it
Looking onto the distance
I'm walking in that part of the resistance
I won't want you to want myself
And nothing else
Would you care for...
Falling in and out, in and out
Deep in love, going down, going down
Waiting for my part
To make a fix to your teared up heart
Down along the line
I will still be treating you fine
No matter what the cost
Even if it all gets lost
Just one kiss could be a hit or miss
Just belong by my side
And nothing else
Would you care for...
Falling in and out, in and out
Deep in love, going down, going down
Waiting for my part
To make a fix to your teared up heart
When do I start to play the part
To mend a beautiful heart?
When do I get to control
Or do I not get it at all?
When did I get to lose everything
That made me be me?
Falling in and out, all about
Falling in and out, in and out
Deep in love, going down, going down
Waiting for my part
To make a fix to your teared up heart
Falling in and out, in and out
Deep in love, going down, going down
Waiting for my part
To make a fix to your teared up heart
Down along this corridor
I see an open door
As you stand beside it
Looking onto the distance
I'm walking in that part of the resistance
I won't want you to want myself
And nothing else
Would you care for...
Falling in and out, in and out
Deep in love, going down, going down
Waiting for my part
To make a fix to your teared up heart
Down along the line
I will still be treating you fine
No matter what the cost
Even if it all gets lost
Just one kiss could be a hit or miss
Just belong by my side
And nothing else
Would you care for...
Falling in and out, in and out
Deep in love, going down, going down
Waiting for my part
To make a fix to your teared up heart
When do I start to play the part
To mend a beautiful heart?
When do I get to control
Or do I not get it at all?
When did I get to lose everything
That made me be me?
Falling in and out, all about
Falling in and out, in and out
Deep in love, going down, going down
Waiting for my part
To make a fix to your teared up heart
Falling in and out, in and out
Deep in love, going down, going down
Waiting for my part
To make a fix to your teared up heart
New Song: Please (A Song for Beatrice)
Have we met before
Or was a dream?
I swear you were next to me
I stare at your eyes
Then I realize
I have you hanging on to my every word
Please don't lose my touch like her
Please don't cast me off like her
Please, oh don't leave me
If you could change
The clock a bit backward
Would you have me to hold?
I see beauty inside
Then I figure
I have you finally by my side
Please don't lose my grip like her
Please don't send me off like her
Please, oh don't leave me
I promise not to let you down
I don't want you to fall off my cloud
I need you here by my side
I think I needed one like you all this time
Please don't lose my love like her
Please don't break me off like her
Please, don't leave me
Beatrice
Or was a dream?
I swear you were next to me
I stare at your eyes
Then I realize
I have you hanging on to my every word
Please don't lose my touch like her
Please don't cast me off like her
Please, oh don't leave me
If you could change
The clock a bit backward
Would you have me to hold?
I see beauty inside
Then I figure
I have you finally by my side
Please don't lose my grip like her
Please don't send me off like her
Please, oh don't leave me
I promise not to let you down
I don't want you to fall off my cloud
I need you here by my side
I think I needed one like you all this time
Please don't lose my love like her
Please don't break me off like her
Please, don't leave me
Beatrice
'You Belong With Me' (Guy Version) by Sam DeArmond
Sam created a guy version of this song that rocks (which can be viewed here) so let me share it with you.
You're on the phone with your boyfriend, he's upset
He's going off about something that you said
He doesnt get your humour like I do
I'm in the room, its a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music he doesnt like
And he'll never know your story like I do
He wears graphic tees I wear plain things
He's at the club and I'm home watchin' TV
Dreaming bout the day when you'll wake up and find
That what you're lookin for has been here the whole time
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me
You belong with me
Walkin the streets with you in your worn out jeans
I cant help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on the park bench thinkin to myself
Hey isnt this easy?
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
I havent seen it in awhile, since he brought you down
You say you find I know you better than that
Hey, Whatcha doing with a guy like that?
He likes hip hop I like punk rock
He's got a mustang and I got a honda
Dreaming bout the day when you'll wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me
Standin by, waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know that?
You belong with me
You belong with me
Oh I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're about to cry
I know your favorite songs and you tell me about your dreams
I think I know where you belong. I think I know it's with me.
Can't you see that I'm the one who understand you?
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me
Standing by or waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know that
You belong with me
You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me
You belong with me
You're on the phone with your boyfriend, he's upset
He's going off about something that you said
He doesnt get your humour like I do
I'm in the room, its a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music he doesnt like
And he'll never know your story like I do
He wears graphic tees I wear plain things
He's at the club and I'm home watchin' TV
Dreaming bout the day when you'll wake up and find
That what you're lookin for has been here the whole time
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me
You belong with me
Walkin the streets with you in your worn out jeans
I cant help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on the park bench thinkin to myself
Hey isnt this easy?

All this time how could you not know that
You belong with me
You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me
You belong with me

New Lyric: Your Reasons You Want To Be
You come on
All pretty eyed
Say you want to go for a ride
With me
You ask if I
Can be the one
I look
Your way
And ask if you are for sure
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Saying you want me
I need to know
If I want you to
I need to know
If I want you to
Is it my hair
My eyes
Or personality?
That makes you attracted
To me
Or is it the clothes
My smarts
Or any other parts
That make you seek me out
Explain to me
Your reasons you want
To be near or aside me
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Saying you want me
I need to know
If I want you to
I need to know
If I want you to
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Wanting me
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Wanting me
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Wanting me
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Wanting me
All pretty eyed
Say you want to go for a ride
With me
You ask if I
Can be the one
I look
Your way
And ask if you are for sure
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Saying you want me
I need to know
If I want you to
I need to know
If I want you to
Is it my hair
My eyes
Or personality?
That makes you attracted
To me
Or is it the clothes
My smarts
Or any other parts
That make you seek me out
Explain to me
Your reasons you want
To be near or aside me
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Saying you want me
I need to know
If I want you to
I need to know
If I want you to
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Wanting me
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Wanting me
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Wanting me
I don't know
What you mean
By you
Wanting me
New Lyric: 'Daybreakers' Inspired by the film
Welcome to the city of an unknown god
Staring down our desperate faces
This is the world getting under pressure
Welcome to the reality where it hurts to pleasure
Everyone will look down
To dismember their hopeless places
We'll open our unwashed hands
To cleanse our mistakes
We're losing ourselves inside a world
With scattered faces
We'll all go down in front of god
And demand a reward
But we'll never receive it at all
Welcome to the city of an unknown future
Disappearing as we grow older
This is my world crumbling into a sinkhole
Welcome to the reality where we destroy our lives
Everyone will frown
to remmeber their lost in a world gone colder
We'll open our unwashed hands
To cleanse our proposed mistakes
We're losing ourselves inside a world
With scattered paranoid faces
We'll all kneel down in front of god
And demand a reward
But we'll never receive it at all
Because we don't believe
We'll open our unwashed hands
To cleanse our proposed mistakes
We're losing ourselves inside a world
With scattered paranoid faces
We'll all kneel down in front of god
And demand a reward
But we'll never receive it at all
Because we don't believe
(Outro)
Staring down our desperate faces
This is the world getting under pressure
Welcome to the reality where it hurts to pleasure

With scattered faces
We'll all go down in front of god
And demand a reward
But we'll never receive it at all
Welcome to the city of an unknown future
Disappearing as we grow older
This is my world crumbling into a sinkhole
Welcome to the reality where we destroy our lives
Everyone will frown
to remmeber their lost in a world gone colder
We'll open our unwashed hands

But we'll never receive it at all
Because we don't believe

New Lyric: But I Have To (I Have To)
I would have sailed the world for you
I would have given it all to you
I would have been there to care for you
Now it ended soon, all ended soon
You were just a dream I couldn't achieve
And now I must go on and be set free
Be set free, be set free
You've been in my head so long
It's going to be hard to move on from you
But I have to, I have to
I do want to hurt anymore
You are much happier than before
You won't need me anymore
He's the one for you, He's the one for you
You were just a dream I couldn't achieve
And now I must go on and be set free
Be set free, be set free
You've been in my head so long
It's going to be hard to move on from you
But I have to, I have to
It's going to be a long and winding road
The shape of my heart is returning to form
I can't walk after you no more
Face it, I lost you
Before I had you, I lost you
You were just a dream I couldn't achieve
And now I must go on and be set free
Be set free, be set free
You've been in my head so long
It's going to be hard to move on from you
But I have to, I have to
You've been stuck in my head so long
It's going to be so hard to go and move on
But I have to, I need to let go of you
But I have to, I have to
But I have to, I have to
But I have to, I have to
(One of my favorite songs I have written)
I would have given it all to you
I would have been there to care for you
Now it ended soon, all ended soon
You were just a dream I couldn't achieve
And now I must go on and be set free
Be set free, be set free
You've been in my head so long
It's going to be hard to move on from you
But I have to, I have to
I do want to hurt anymore
You are much happier than before
You won't need me anymore
He's the one for you, He's the one for you
You were just a dream I couldn't achieve
And now I must go on and be set free
Be set free, be set free
You've been in my head so long
It's going to be hard to move on from you
But I have to, I have to
It's going to be a long and winding road
The shape of my heart is returning to form
I can't walk after you no more
Face it, I lost you
Before I had you, I lost you
You were just a dream I couldn't achieve
And now I must go on and be set free
Be set free, be set free
You've been in my head so long
It's going to be hard to move on from you
But I have to, I have to
You've been stuck in my head so long
It's going to be so hard to go and move on
But I have to, I need to let go of you
But I have to, I have to
But I have to, I have to
But I have to, I have to

Holy smokes...it's a blog: College and Lyrics
Well, I'm back on the blogging front and I will attempt it. Well, I announced my plans for the future but I have more. I'm applying for colleges already which may be hard, but it might be rewarding in the end. I have to study lines for an upcoming play and I finally got back on track with my school work.
Anyway, one thing I would like to take some time to discuss is how I write my lyrics. Mostly I write from personal experiences such as a break-up, a past situation, or something along these lines. Then, I think of a genre to put the lyrics to, which can range from pop to rock to any other one you can think of. After, I write my ass off to make it the best I can. it may take five minutes to up to three days for me to write one of my lyrics (The Ballad of Love and Lost was three days and a half of work). Finally, I share my work with friends, students, and fans.
There you have it. A blog. Next time, I might talk about something random so be on the outlook.
