Where's The Love Gone?

Where's love the gone in this world?
All I see is hatred and violence.
Where's the love gone in this world?
All I see is anger and sorrow.
You think violence is a solution for all the problems.
You'd kill everyone just cause they don't agree with you.
A petty argument and you'll blow up the world.
Every little issue, it means death for you.
Where's the love gone?
A never ending war, been going on for 9 years.
You tell me it's not a war anymore,
Then what do you call it?
It's just their solution for everything going on.
Kill everyone=Problem over.
Where's the love gone?
So you abuse to take your anger out?
Why is it others are hurt for your own trouble?
Why is it you kill from your own drunken anger?
Where's the love gone?
I think it ran away.
Hatred's taken over.
Our hearts are turning grey.
Where's the love gone?
Go search until you can find it.
If you can find it, I think the world needs some.
Where's the love gone?
Where's the love gone in this world?
It ran astray, the violence has scared it away.
No where to be found, it won't even make a sound.
Where has the love gone?

Life

Life is such sorrow. Don't know what'll happen today, don't know what'll happen tomorrow. You live, you learn. You die, you burn. You laugh, you sigh. You say hello, then goodbye. You love, you hate. You grow, you dissipate. You walk, you crawl. You stand, then you fall. You're fake, you're real. You're hurt, then you heal. And this is life. You can love it, you can hate it. But you've got to live it. You suffer, you cry. You stay, you walk on by. You give life, you kill. You touch, you feel. You see, you hear. You're far, you're near. And this is life. You can love it, you can hate it. But you've got to live it.

Burning

Fire raining down from the sky.
Burns and melts the world until there's nothing left.
Fire falling from above.
It destroys the earth, then we're gone.
The world is burning, but it keeps on turning.
Until there's nothing left to turn.
Fire falls, we will burn.
Like a volcanoe, lava will rise.
Hypnotize, our demise, no suprise, the world just dies.
We are burning. Till there's nothing left.
It's like Hell on Earth, Heaven on Mars.
Fire burning, leaving scars.
And we can cry oceans of tears, but it won't put out that flame.
We're melting down, all that's left is a memory, a name.
Heat will rise, the flames will grow.
When this will come, we already know.
Like a volcanoe, the lava will rise.
Hypnotize, our demise, no suprise, the world it dies.
We can't put out the fire.
Even with all the desire, we will expire, flames going higher, they will not retire.
We are burning till there's nothing left.
Frying like eggs in a frying pan.
Fire will destroy man.
The world will cease, the end of peace, no release, from it all.
We can't pretend that we can defend ourselves from the end.
We are burning up like the sun.
The end has begun, our day is done, the war will not be won, all that's been created will be undone.
The universe turns grey, and we can pray, but there is no way, our dismay, the end of our day.
The fire will destroy, it's all gone, no happiness, no joy.
We are burning, burning, burning, till there's nothing left.

Rest In Peace
Written by Kristy Grim and her mother

This is for the loved ones deceased
May you rest in peace
And for the ones left mourning,
I know everybody cries
But dry those tears from your eyes
Put all your sorrow behind
Clear your mind
Just know they're going to a better place,
You'll still the memories that nothing can erase
And you'll be okay
Tommorow is a brighter day
Rest in peace, rest in peace
May all the dead rest in peace
I know they're looking down upon you
I know their love will remain true
We will forget them never
Always in our hearts forever and ever
Rest in peace, rest in peace
May all the dead rest in peace
You have left and gone away
But we'll see you again one day

This song is dedicated to anyone who's died
Including my Aunt Audrey, my cousin Karen, my Uncle Ralph, and all my grandparents.

Goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight. I'll go to sleep and dream. To escape from all this fright. Goodnight, goodnight. At least in my dreams everything can be alright. I'll shut my eyes just for a moment. Be happy for a moment. Cause I can doing anything when asleep. At least I know when I'm dreaming that what happens isn't real. At least I know when I'm dreaming, pain I no longer feel.
When I'm depressed, feeling down. I can break away.
I go to sleep, it will all be okay.
At least till I awake, so I'll just sleep forever.
When there's too much for me to take.
I'lll just close my eyes and dream.
Goodnight, goodnight. This sleep is like a painkiller.
Goodnight, goodnight, this dream is such a thriller.
When there's nowhere left to go, there's always room in my dreams.
When I'm tired of this all, it makes it better, so it seems.
I'm not tired, cause when I sleep I feel so awake.
And when I've had enough, there's no more I can take.
I'll just say goodnight, goodnight.
I'll go to sleep, never come back.
Goodnight, goodnight.
This sleep will heal all the cracks,
In my life.
Because there's no sadness when I dream, there's no hurt when I dream.
I'll be okay in my dream.
So when I no longer feel like living,
No longer feel like giving
I'll just say goodnight.
And it will all be over.
And I'll be just fine.
All the fault is mine.
Goodnight, goodbye.

I still have some more to add, but that's all for now.
I know they kind of suck, but please give me your opions on each of them?

You've gotten a lot better. Way much more compared to your stuff two years ago.

[TheGrimReaper]

Thank you, it's all thanks to you guys, and a few others. It's mostly from the constructive criticism I recieved, it made me learn a little more, not just when writing song, but for other things too.  
It also comes with age. You usually improve at things when you get older.

[John]

Mostly with age. I wouldn't say my talent for writing has changed much in the last few years but definitely a lot between the age transition you've had since you first received that constructive criticism.

I need to write more.

[TheGrimReaper]

Yes you do, I would like to see more of your work.

[Little GoGo Dancer]

Nice, they're sounding pretty good.  

You're reminding me that I need to write more.

[TheGrimReaper]

Thanks.
If you write more songs, post them, cause I'd like to see them.

Get Up, Get Out, and Get Moving

Yesterday is gone. The future is near.
So get up and get out and do something, cause time goes by so fast.
Life, it never lasts.
Instead of sitting there in that chair, get up and get out and do something.
Ride a bike, talk a walk, write a song, write a story, turn on the radio and sing-along to your favorite song.
Just get up, get out, and hang out.
Don't waste your life away, tomorrow may be another day, but you've got to do something today.
Make something of your life. Be postive. It's a simple thing to do. It doesn't take a whole lot of work to have fun.
Just be happy, and have fun. Positivity, it's essential. And you know you've got the potential.
So get up and get out and do something. Get moving on, get moving along.
Make your life a good one.
Don't let your life slip away. Having a good life, it's pretty easy.
Today is here. The future's near. So get out and have fun before the time is gone.
Life, it does not last for long. Get up, get out, get moving.

I know it's not all that great, but I  wrote it earlier and I wrote it really fast too, so I figured I'd hurry up and make this quick post. Opinions please?

Someone been listening to Reasons Not To Be An Idiot? Sounds good though, but suffering the same inhibition of all lyrics alone and that is the dependance on delivery, my simpleton brain has trouble taking in lyrics on their own, sort of like I don't like to eat ketchup while my fish and chips are floating around somewhere in the ether. Could you find a way of showing how you'd chuck it out as a song, unless this is just nice poetry?

Well I'd like to be able to show it as a song, but sadly I don't seem to be able to play any instruments. So I guess it's more like poetry.
I do have a friend named Franco who likes my lyrics and would the band Innocent Days to use my lyrics, they don't have lead singer right now, because the old singer left the band, and they aren't too many rock fans in Italy supposedly. But when and if they find a new singer, they plan on using my lyrics, so they will be heard as song someday, hopefully.

Thunderstorm

A crash of thunder and a flash of lightning.
It’s like a storm going on inside my head.
So many thoughts in my mind, make it so hard to find, what I need to know.
Where I need to go, in life.
Life it’s so confusing, it’s abusing, my mind.
A crash of thunder and a flash of lightning.
It's like a storm going on inside my head.
Life, it's so complicated, so overated.
I don't quite know what to do.
It's hard to find what's true.
Thoughts all mixed up in my head.
Can I figure it out before my life's, all dead, and gone.
So hard to see, what's ahead of me.
It's so hard to remember the past.
Life's going by oh so fast.
Life it's so confusing, it's abusing, my mind.
A crash of thunder and a flash of lightning
And a crash of thunder and a flash of lightning
And a crash of thunder and a flash of lightning
And a crash of thunder and a flash of lightining
It's like a storm going on inside my head, insde of my head.

Thank you very much! And I'm not one to write songs like everyday like some people. I usually write about an average of 3-5 songs a month. I use to write more but now I find it harder to come up with ideas somtimes.

And yeah thanks for the comment on sig, that's why I chose, cause it was so cute. Lol.

[TheGrimReaper]

Just wrote this a minute ago. Told ya I was gonna write a song.

Why?

Why is it nothing good ever happens to me?
Why is it the light that I can never see?
And when something good does happen,
It doesn't last for long.
Why is it everything always goes wrong?
Why is there always a shadow of despair?
Why do I feel like I don't want to care?
Why do I always feel this way?
Why is it that positivity cannot stay?
Why is it I always feel all alone?
Why do I always feel unknown?
Why do I always feel down?
Why can't I smile, not frown?
Why?
Why do I always feel this way?
Why?
Why is it good things can never stay?
Why do I feel life is terrible?
Why I do I feel so miserable?
Why do I always want to cry?
Why do I feel the joy pass by?
Why won't the light shine down my way?
Why is this all that I can say?
Why do I always have bad luck?
Why do I always feel I don't give a fuck?
Why?
Why do I always feel this way?
Why
Why Is it good things never stay?
Oh why?

You Don't Care and I Don't Care

I've always taught myself not to care what people say.

I've always taught myself that they don't matter anyway.

What you say and what you think, it does not bother me.

I know you think it hurts, but it doesn't, can't you see.



You don't care, you don't care, you don't care, and I don't care

You don't care, you dont' care, and when you need me, I won't be there.



Sometimes I feel all alone, sometimes I feel so unknown.

But I know I'm better off that way.

Just me, myself, I.

It's gonna be that way till the day I die



You don't care, you don't care, you dont' care, and I don't care

You don't care, you don't care, and when you need me, you won't find me anywhere



And I know some day you're going to care,

I know someday you'll need me there

But it's too late, and I don't care anymore



You don't care, you don't care, you don't care,at all.

I don't care, I dont' care, and I know one day you'ge gonna fall

You dont' care, you don't care, but someday you'll need me there

I dont' care, I dont' care, I'm already gone.



And just in case anyone was wondering, this has nothing to do with any of you. XD
This is acutally pretty personal. I just got the idea for it today. *gets evil look on her face and thinks about the person this song's about*

Translation: All of my songs are about you guys.

[TheGrimReaper]

Lol.  
Seriously though, it mostly had to do with my neice, and few other people I know personally too. And it can go for the people I know online, but that's not the original meaning.

No More Trust (Karma)


I trust in you
To stay true
Til the end
Stranger or friend
To never lie
To never hurt me or make me cry
Never try and fool me
To always be the same no matter what I can see
I thought you were kind
Apparently I was blind
Cause when I turned around you stabbed me in the back
Sincerity, well, that's something you lack
Sometimes I can't conceive
Why you would deceive
Me that way
My heart isn't here just for you to betray
What you did behind my back
It's always gonna replay
Too many people I put trust in
Too many people playing a game that I never win
Never gonna trust ever again
Never gonna let even one person in
You can laugh all you want to
Make fun all you want to
That's okay cause one day karma's gonna come back and screw you
You'll be the one feeling this way
For every person that you betray
But me, I'll be okay
I wont listen to what you say
I'll just turn away
Close my eyes and ears to everything you do
Cause I know what you're saying ain't true
It's all okay, cause one day
Karma's gonna come back and screw you
I'm gonna sit back and laugh and be happy that I knew you
Cause you taught me a life lesson
Your evil has been a blessing
Cause I now I know not to trust a soul
Cause there's too many people with a heart black like coal
I know one day my wishes will come true
Karma's coming, yeah it's looking for you
Run and hide but there's nothing you really can do
Karma's coming, and it's gonna screw you.

[EatShitAndCry]

That's really good Kristy. Have you heard this song?

[TheGrimReaper]

Thanks. :)

And no, I haven't. I'll check it out.
