ok ive written heaps, most are V. diff to this one, but i couldnt b bothered typin ne up now so i found one i had saved in my diaryland site.

Cinderella Story
words by me hehehe
Verse 1-
Little girls all around the world have heard of Cinderella
Every girl has got their dream of meeting their fella
But do fairytales of modern time actually exist?
Is there ever a chance of having "loves first kiss?"
Chorus 1-
I just want the Cinderella story
But its not gonna happen, you seem to ignore me
I just want to be the princess this time
But dreams aren't answered if they're mine
Verse 2-
Oh I suppose everyone plays a part in the fairytale scene
But there is only one girl who will end up as queen
Us other girls can play the sisters, but who wants that part?
Fairytale endings just re-break my heart
Chorus 2-
Oh, I just want the Cinderella story
But I don't stand out as beautiful, suppose I'm just boring
I want to play the role of Cinderella but I know
That's a dream that I should let go
Verse 3-
Do you even notice my face in the crowd, or look past me as others do?
If I am "Cinderella", in this story, who are you?
Still standing in the ragged remains of all my shattered dreams
No fairy godmother coming round, so I guess i wont be your queen
Chorus 3-
Oh I just want the Cinderella story
Want to hear you tell me that you adore me
Please can we have a chance at happily forever
Or does "forever" really mean, in my case, "never" ?
Tag-
Cos I cannot be your Cinderella
And you'll never be my fella
Fairytales may come true
Probably do for you
But I'll dream til the end of time
Ill dream til the end of time
I’ve been dreaming a long time...
But dreams aren't answered if they're mine

I once wrote a concept album when I was tripping. It was called Empath Scrambler.

It was the story of a guy who walks outside his room and the world has been taken over by evil creatures that have the heads of tigers, bodies made out of kitchen utensils and they wear nappies. These creatures (dubbed Marnets) can only travel on roads because of some energy that bitumen emits (undetectable to humans) and they feed on parking metres for sustenance. These guys have a telepathic bond with another species of creatures who look like photocopiers with spider legs who would force the human race to do their bidding. Anyway, the anti-hero of the story, a 12 year old imbred called Beocat is having trouble because he is stuck inside of a skull buried beneath the earth that actually is the missing link in the evolution chain. I forgot how it ended and Ive lost the lyrics (which I had music for about 7 instruments written).

Here's another one of my pieces


Porcelaina

The awkward silence
Is dragging her down;
Class clown,
Class clown,
She slowly starts to drown.
For what it's worth
She hated the world-
It made her mad,
It made her bad.
Now petering out
She sees a man;
Stranger in the dark.
With forceful gauge
Tries to strip her bark.
The girl,
Fifteen,
The silence of her screams,
Now haunted by her shame.

Breakable trends,
The human disease.
She was betrayed and used.
These men,
They fought and abused.
All the scars she had to hide
And all the drugs to numb.
Tumult, broken
And suicides that echo.
Wasting away
And befalling capacity.
She bleeds
She screams.
Weak and left to whither.
Dead eyes,
She's beautiful.
Class clown,
Class clown,
Has now a painted frown.

Id love to be able to write lyrics. I can write so well, but only in narrative, or poetry. And then i cant get the petry into lyric, i guess cos im not musical enuf. I'll just stick to the stories; i tell ya, i can write a mad sex scene!

But yeah, i really admire people who can write. Well done.

one more... because I am bored...

Do you know what it's like to love somebody
that you could never have, but you want so bad
to live every day, to hope and pray
that you don't have to hide the feelings inside
Do you know what it's like to need somebody
more and more but your heart is torn
why can't you see I'm so confused
I don't understand what should I do

people say that love it blind
that statement rings so true
you're the only one i can't have
and I can't stop loving you
cause I'm holding on to memories
of a summer long ago
before I learned you secret
one i didn't want to know...

Do you know what it's like to love somebody
that you could never have, but you want so bad
to live every day, to hope and pray
that you don't have to hide the feelings inside
Do you know what it's like to need somebody
more and more but your heart is torn
why can't you see I'm so confused
I don't understand what should I do

Even though I see you
and we're still the best of friends
I have to ask myself if
this torture ever ends
I never want to lose you
but I hope that you can see
that living life without your love
is slowly killing me

Do you know what it's like to love somebody
that you could never have, but you want so bad
to live every day, to hope and pray
that you don't have to hide the feelings inside
Do you know what it's like to need somebody
more and more but your heart is torn
why can't you see I'm so confused
I don't understand what should I do

and dagnammit, I've lost my GOOD book of stuff... grrr.......
