    I thought it would be cool to give you lines from some of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands, Cute Is What We Aim For. I'll try to keep it one set of lines or one line per song, but I dunno, a few of them have a lot that I like, lol so here are the lines

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------

    01. The social scene where she gets her fix
    Has been broken since '86

    02. Drama doesn't follow me it rides on my back

    03. Eyeliner and a famous designer brand
    Your mind is a moment to be stamped

    04. Apply that lip-gloss like it's your job
    You know you're his heartthrob

    05. Medically speaking you're adorable
    And from what I hear you're quite affordable

    06. And these fingertips are moving faster than these lips
    So you can only imagine how jealous my mouth is

    07. I turn on a dime, spin me around
    So you can shine, shine right now

    08. You're a legend in this room
    Only on this room

    09. You hike your skirt and pull your shirt down
    To give those gents what they crave
    -Becca [DONE]

    10. Let the sweat drop
    Calm, collected, and cunning
    Watch those jaws drop
    The sweat is still running

    11. He said it was a one night stand
    But the alcohol didn't let her understand
    -Jenni [DONE]

    12. So what made you think that he couldn't find a door in the morning?
    When he found that bed so easily in the dark?

    13. So the bartender who tends to pretend that he's concerned
    Says, "Girlie girlie, you're at your best when you're sober"
    And she slurs, "No no, just one more"
    -Teria

    14. She thought that she could buy happiness by the bottle
    -Teria

    15. The arch in your eyebrows can tell the truth

    16. The inside lingo had me at hello
    And we go where the money goes

    17. Her bone structure screams
    "Touch her! Touch her!"
    -Britt

    18. Style doesn't matter when you're on your back

    19. I don't break hearts, I just dent them
    -Jordan [DONE]

    20. And you want to be dressed in poetry
    But imagery doesn't fit

    21. You trained these lips when they were champs
    And now they're itchin' for a comeback

    22. You have a dangerous face and illegal taste
    And that strap is fallen on that shoulder blade
    -Espoir*failed -- [DONE]

    23. I'm selfish as selfish comes

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------

    01. RESERVE and COMPLETE by deadline
    02. Preferrably rhyming
    03. Two per person, two or one per title, doesn't matter
    04. If you want to change them around, ask and I'll probably let you
    05. NO cutting/suicidal poems please
    06. Min 12 lines, max 42
    07. Deadline: June 28
    08. Have fun =]

    13. So the bartender who tends to pretend that he's concerned
    Says, "Girlie girlie, you're at your best when you're sober"
    And she slurs, "No no, just one more"

    14. She thought that she could buy happiness by the bottle

    Please!

    I love this idea.
    Now, does this have to be the title or just lines in the poem?

    Teria, you can make one a title if you want, I think the first one may be a bit long to make a title, but do what you want with it.

    You have a dangerous face and an illegal taste,
    And that strap is fallen on that shoulder blade
    You risked it all for your five minutes of fame,
    But that's a shooting star and the clue is in the name.

    Carry out the riffles and bring in the spades,
    The cops are at the door and we don't have time to waste.
    The liquor coats your breath like a watch so misplaced,
    But breathe in so we can take three inches off your waist.

    Eyes are black, painted up like a model,
    But as you walk the thin line your legs seem to wobble.
    But don't worry doll, the world is at your feet.
    You gave it all up for a desire so discrete.

    Bones show their colour more than ever before,
    And they're coming for your stash hidden in the top drawer.
    The media has so much they're responsible for,
    But just tell yourself, baby, you are still hardcore.

    What is that about^^

  • BECCA lessTHANthree

    You hike your skirt and pull your shirt down
    To give those gents what they crave,
    Walk by in elegance, with a sensual stare,
    And enjoy the sick way you behave

    So lost in a world of mansions and money,
    Of nights and a laugh so untrue,
    Where days are blurred and only betweens,
    For those nights and those things that you do,

    And that feeling of abandonment,
    That is filled with their sexual stares,
    And those nights that are slowly killing you,
    And the facade that you so gladly wear.

    You are just this alcoholic beauty,
    Steeling away you pain with sex,
    Cleaning up and then walking out,
    Just to see who's staring next.

    But no one loves you like you think,
    To them you're just another face,
    So take your pain, pretty girl,
    And take it out some other place.

    Cause this lavish nightlife you're leading,
    Is not a place for a girl who can feel,
    This is a world that is numb of emotion,
    A reality far from what's real.

    And your pain will never escape you,
    If you continue your scandalous ways,
    You are running in for the breakdown
    In just a matter of days.

    But we both know that you don't care,
    Cause these are things that you already knew,
    And the second that I stop talking,
    We both know what your going to do...

    So hike your skirt and pull down your shirt,
    Pretty girl go enjoy being used,
    Just remember dolly, when you're in his bed,
    That you live the life you choose.

    He Said It Was A One Night Stand, But The Alcohol Wouldn't Let Her Understand

    Morning dawned clear and bright
    Smiling as she remembered last night
    Tucked up safe in his embrace
    trailing kisses down his face

    She rolled over in her bed
    Recalling tender things said
    Yet what she did dicsover
    Was no one beneath the cover

    Her lover had silently disappeared
    Done the one thing she'd always feared
    She'd thought he wanted her for more than fun
    But the game he'd played, he had won

    Her eyes landed on the bedside table
    Reading the note there, she didn't feel stable
    'Seems alcohol doesn't make you all that bright
    But by God, I enjoyed last night!'
