I'm A Fake
The Taste Of Ink

please and thank you

May I please have "Devil Beside You"? Thank you! :)
~Midnight Sun

With Me Tonight, thanx

The Taste Of Ink

I eat my words,
Strewn on paper,
Careless, but thoughtful,
Just the essence of my mind.

The ink is bitter,
The paper dry,
But not lifeless,
Never lifeless.

My spirit,
My heart,
My mind,
Existing all at once,
Upon a single page.

You read my words,
But can you feel them,
Do you hear them,
Can you taste them?

Raw emotion,
Draped in the salt of life,
Stinging,
Healing,
Caressing every wound.

I am the pen,
My fire and passion,
The ink.

The dark place in my head && liar liar, please!

A box full of sharpened objects.
AND.
Wake The Dead. (:

Hmmmm.... I'm not sure what happened, but I could swear that I already reserved two titles a few hours ago, and now I can't see that post...

Never mind, Britt already took those two

I want "Paralyzed", then.

Well...I would really like to take "Sound Effects and Overdramatics" if that's o.k with you Britt...

And for the second one I'll keep "Paralyzed"

Devil Beside You:

We all have our demons
Living inside of us
We fight them every day
To earn other's trust

But what if that demon
Was visible to all
Always beside you
Standing proud and tall

And what if that demon
Had unusual power
More than the rest
Every good he devours

Yes what if the Devil
Took his place next to you
Would you fight him back
You know there's nothing to do

There is, sadly, no defense
And he knows where you sleep
He knows every thought
And there's no where safe to weep

Where can you go?
He is everywhere
Slowly choking out your freedom
You're running out of air.

This Devil has more power
Because your heart he has taken
He wears it proudly
While your soul is being shaken

You feel the wedding band
Restricting your actions
Every time he tightens his fist
It brings different reactions

This Devil is more evil
Than any other before
He holds your vow over your head
And declares a bloody war

How can the love of your life
Have misused your trust
To show no value for your breath
This punishment so unjust

Yes this Devil beside you
Is different than the rest
He has no heart...
This Devil is possessed.

Caught Fire (In Your Eyes)

please Jenna

Liar Liar (Licentia Rhyme)

Trying to sway me with your false desires
Each time you talk my mind chants liar liar
Gazing into your eyes fills me with disdain
Lie after lie, I'm wondering if you're sane
Uttering so many lies with a straight face
Leaving me repulsed, feeling only distaste
Yet you continue, smiling that perfect smile
Deciet hidden, but baby you're full of guile
Knowing just what is hidden behind your eyes
Sweetheart I've known so long about all your lies
Trying to sway me with your false desires
Each time you talk my mind chants liar liar

Gazing into your eyes fills me with disdain
Lie after lie, I'm wondering if you're sane
It's time to grow up, finally be a man
I know it's difficuly, but prove that you can
Start telling the truth, it's really not that hard
Otherwise, it is your heart that I'll discard
Why do you insist on weaving these stories
Watching you stand there in all your false glory
What happened to the truthful soul I once knew?
Used to love you, now you always leave me blue
Trying to sway me with your false desires
Each time you talk my mind chants liar liar

Uttering so many lies with a straight face
Leaving me repulsed, feeling only distaste
It's like you get of on causing so much hurt
Deliberately doing wrong, it's like I'm dirt
Heart breaking a little more each single day
Used to be kind, now you always want your way
Countless times I've sat alone, constantly cried
Your {honest} eyes hide all the evil inside
Intimate moments gone, heartbreak all that's left
Used to trust, now all I do is second guess
Trying to sway me with your false desires
Each time you talk my mind chants liar liar

Paralyzed

Shades of miracles got me here
through the life, emotionless sea,
through the memories I tried to conceal-
in your eyes I want to disappear
with bloodstained ideals
dramatically impossible to foresee;
under fragrant lobes of bliss
begging on my knees-
mesmerize me
with just one dazzling kiss
once more, let me be
lost in sweet reminisce-
paralyzed;

embraced this ardent obsession
drowned in misty colors, hypnotized,
trapped inside laced dreams
I'm waving this ornamented confession
and it's mesh of distant gleams,
under fragrant lobes of bliss
begging on my knees-
capture me
with just one velvet kiss
once more, let me be
lost in precious reminisce-
paralyzed.

I'm A Fake

Tainted on my face,
This smile is not real,
It doesn't say a thing,
On how I truly feel.

It is easier to smile,
Then no one asks what's wrong,
No pointing out your weakness,
Outside you seem strong.

With friends you seem happy,
At home you just cry,
No one is the wiser,
No one's asking why.

Two different worlds in which you live,
But one day they will meet,
You cannot hide forever,
Living incomplete.

Don't be afraid to share your pain,
With those who really care,
Life's too short to cry alone,
And wallow in despair.

Can I have a 3rd title?

Yeah, sure . No one new seems to take an interest, take as many as you like .

I want to reserve:
All That I've got
&
Under Pressure.
Please.
Thanks.

Ah thanks babe, in that case I will take 2 more titles lol

Let It Bleed

EDIT: Make that one lol ^^^ one was taken

Let It Bleed

A heart lay breaking,
A soul is aching,
Driven mad tonight,

Insanity falling,
Down like rain,
Erasing what felt right.

Drink it down,
And turn around,
Face the life you live,

Nothing more,
Can come from it,
If never, we forgive.

Cry and scream,
Forget the dreams,
But hold onto your soul,

Bleed it out,
Pain and sorrow,
You're still in control.

You choose to feel,
And see what's real,
Or drown inside the lies,

Time will give,
When you let go,
Bittersweet good-byes.

Wake The Dead.

Swallow me whole with those chapped lips of yours,
or confine me to a closet with your lifeless power.
Chase me back into a corner and take advantage,
but always remember - you have nothing on me.

I shan't run from fears of something unrealistic,
nor fight the feelings I'll be puking up tonight.
I shan't turn another cheek when you hit me up right,
nor stir emotions deep within soulful dreams.

Instead I shall wake the dead - curse your name aloud.
Pour demons on the grave I dug up and bury you alive.
I will fight until the day I die for the right I have to live-
for I shine brighter than the sun and you've nothing on me.

A Box Full Of Sharp Objects.

With a smile on my face I lay me down to sleep,
pray the LORD above your box you shall keep.
For, I've exchanged each memory item,
for something a bit more delighting.

You've got your brand new scissors,
and four fully sharpened pencils,
with some nails thrown about and
a few unknown objects here and there.

You've got your pocket knife -
Oops! I left it open:
and, the label said: " includes;
screwdriver, knife, and sharpened file."

You've got your favorite fork with five prongs,
and a few other different things.
You're in for a treat, my darling lover boy-
just wait for the scream and leave a message:

I've heard my prayer come true tonight,
the second story building surrounded by lights.
A pool full of blood and a few drops of hate -
that's what you get for ditching your date.

Sound Effects and Overdramatics

Efface surface of troublesome blizzards
(effects for emotions cause volcanic eruptions)
volume's beating inside the hive
while the telegraphs deliver fresh, catastrophic notes

oh
the sun
is spilling
dark
dark
illusions...
the world's
crumbling.

Excuses build a church of molten lies that echo
between flashing car crashes inside the mind;
imagination's infected with deathly shimmers
so I promise I won't force it this time-

oh,
the moon
is bleeding
scarlet,
scarlet
tears...
the world's
sleeping.

Choke me please.

The Dark Place In My Head

What would you do if you knew what I were thinking?
That sometimes I imagine your blood splattered all around me?
That I visualize the many different ways to murder you
Without feeling any pangs of regret or remorse?

Would you be terrified these thoughts have stayed hidden
That they've never been conveyed through my calm exterior?
That I can stare at you with nothing but love in my eyes
While underneath all I want to do is reach out and choke you

Seems you've managed to turn me into a chameleon
You've never had a clue about all the rage I feel inside
Every time I look in your deceiving eyes it turns my stomach
And yet I'm still so easily able to smile brightly at you

One day, I promise you'll pay for all that you have done
For making me love you, and then running into her arms
What would you do if you knew what thoughts ran in my mind?
If you knew about the dark place where voices talk in my head?

I Caught Fire (In Your Arms) [Lyrics]

Verse 1:
"Yeah baby, I've caught the fire while in your arms,
You've kept me safe from any harm."
Each time I heard him say that to her.
I can't help thinking of what we once were.

Chorus:
We were perfect, we could've made it -
I was always true, but he just faked it.
Ripped out my heart and threw the pieces on the floor,
As he turned away without a glace and walked out the door.

Verse 2:
Once bitten, and twice should be shy,
But I can't help that I still cry.
Your eyes, your voice, you beautiful face -
Will always be memories my mind cannot erase.

Chorus

Verse 3:
You had told me once, that it was your song;
I guess I should've known it all along.
I was just a waste of time; a toy while waiting for her.
Now I'm sitting here with all the broken pieces of what we once were.

Chorus 2x

`````````````
definately not my best.
