Radios and paper hearts

by Hey Brittknee   Jul 13, 2007


Let the words flow from the radio, make the silence go away
emotions blasted through the speakers, with every word they say.

Lets cut out paper hearts again, and scatter them on the floor
for a valentine who doesn't care, and a girl who's loved no more.

Blast the radio tonight darling,drowned out all your cries
hide yourself behind that mask again, in a world filled with lies.

Dance around the floor once more, and we'll give it one last go,
the music slips through the walls tonight, and no one even knows.

The DJ plays her favorite song, that reminds her of a guy,
the song she cries to every night, as she replays their goodbye.

Let the music make your eardrums bleed, such a pretty sight,
make this moment Kodak perfect honey,and dance away the night.

Collapse onto the wooden floor, her body so weak and frail,
the blood rushing from her broken heart, her face is running pale.

So lets blast the radio darling, and let the paper hearts bleed out
Because tonight every thing's gonna fade away, drowning out the shouts.

    Very interesting and intriguing style, I love the caesura you used -- very fitting. This has a gentle musicality to it, that was superb! Only one spot tripped up for me:

    "The DJ plays her favorite song, that reminds her of a guy,
    the song she cries to every night, as she replays their goodbye."

    The second line seems to run on too far,
    and in my opinion reads smoother as:
    The song she cries to every night,
    replaying their goodbye.

    Just a suggestion.
    Overall, a great piece!

    Take Care,

    Very unique and creative, greatly written with such powerful imagery. My favorite lines are:

    -Let the words flow from the radio, make the silence go away
    emotions blasted through the speakers, with every word they say.

    Lets cut out paper hearts again, and scatter them on the floor
    for a valentine who doesn't care, and a girl who's loved no more.-
    ^ Amazing and totally original.

    Keep up, 5/5 from me
