Yeah...so I'm working on my band. It's called ACEofSPADES, and I generally consider my lyrics to be grunge. I figure I'll post a song or two, and when I get them...I'll post actual recordings. Could be a while, as we haven't had a practice in about a month, since our schedules are completely ********. But for now...I'll give this a shot.

Cool.
I used to be in a band but it split up cos half of the members couldn't be bothered, and i wanted to go in a different musical direction to them(ie. i wanted to do grunge and metal and they wanted to do punk-pop and indie).
I have some, solo stuff, as it were, and a few songs written with Dragonforce rule...

anyway back on topic, i look forward to hearing your band, i bet you're good smile

Don't feel bad. I'm working with a POS box too. I was actually going to post lyrics last time, but my computer had a seizure in the process. In fact, Fiction Press is still down, so I can't tap my massive archive, and had to go hunting through my Myspace blog for my occasional post. Which sucks, because I made my Myspace blog 1-per-page last week. sweatdrop stressed

First off, Turn Away. Might be the only one until FP decides to stop tripping. I originally posted this April 25th, 2006, and though I'm not entirely happy with part of the ending...the rest of it is all right. I believe this is the only song I've ever hyped both before and after it was written. For that matter, it's the only one I hyped before it was finished.

Turn Away

Forgive the life to which you're a slave
Try to forget the lives you couldn't save
If you're doing yourself right by doing me wrong
Are you doing anything right at all?

I take a step back and look you all over
A neverending nightmare of hate, filth, and greed
Unlocking a cage filled with my past mistakes
I'm watching them burn, they're watching me bleed

Forsake the life to which you're a slave
Try to forsake the lives you could have saved
If, by doing me wrong, you're doing you right
What the hell are you doing tonight?

I turned my back on what I once knew
And in doing so, I turned to you
You couldn't save me from myself
And so I put you on a shelf

A shelf, alone with what I was
Because I've tried to change
Change from who I used to be
Wanting to ******** every girl I'd see
But things are different now
I tried not to love her
But she was too close
Too close to what I used to be
too close to what I used to see
The next I loved just because she's the same
The same damn woman with a different name
But each time I learn a little more about me
And each time I confront what I least want to see
Through bloodshed and hatred, I've destroyed my soul
A single essence of fire and pain
Have led me to turn away again

Forget the life that you've enslaved
And forgive yourself the ones you didn't save
Alone I will stand, to myself I'll be true
While millions around me are worshiping you

Thank God...Fiction Press is back up...it's been down for most of the past week, and as such, accessing my backlog has been difficult. Although, I am a little concerned that my talent is slipping. This is an older piece, but one of my personal favorites, along with Turn Away. It's called Stride by Stride, and will hopefully appear on my debut.

Stride by Stride

CHORUS:
The shadow dwelling in your mind
Advances slowly, stride by stride
And waits until the curtains call
He draws them back, and sees them all

VERSE:
The ignorant tempo of anger-filled voices
Fills all of our minds with ignorant choices
The self-blinding hate fills up all the cracks
And ignorant people forget to turn back

There is an aroma, an aura of fear
The scent of your fright as your death cometh here
Advance to the stage, draw back the curtains
Until you can see all the innocents hurting

Repeat CHORUS


VERSE:
The senses of darkness, approaching and sounding
The dogs of black fear, carousing and hounding
Alone on a peak, an innocent burns
Alone in a classroom, an innocent learns

Repeat CHORUS
The shadows dwelling in our minds
Advance toward us, stride by stride
They wait until our curtains call
And draw them back; They see us all.
