starving

[VertigoGal]

you smell of overpriced candles
and rip-out perfume samples
and dreams whove been trampled
by the monotony of success
a success not your own
youve dug your roots in the sand
and with every gust of stinging wind
comes a longing
dont quell it

i see you every morning
your eyes a silent warning
dont say anything
and i just want to scream
why cant you see?

dont you realize that
while your makeup
fills the lines beneath your eyes
it cannot enter that which lies inside
the caverns of your soul
most who befriend you
try not to enter down that slippery slope
to honesty and want
but for me, there is no choice
i read your thoughts
and id like to shout them to the world
so they can see what theyve done to you
with their well-sanded grass
and delusions of class
and predictable laughs

im disgusted in you
that youve allowed this
that youve become this
you paint layers on your face
to avoid seeing your reflection
but take all that away
and what now remains?
you dont want to see it
most dont
but i do

i want to grasp that
take it in my hand
and run with it
far from this suffocating land
im starving here
we're starving here

And I thought you were going to tell us how hungry you were

7/10 keep writing some good lyrics in there.

 

[VertigoGal]

yeah the cliches are killing me...

 

[For Honor]

how to say it.....

"WHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"


I have thoughts and feelings like that all the time... seeing through people and stuff. Being honest when others can't or wont.

I dislike fake laughter....


That really is good.....
I really like that, because I feel that way so much ----

Look at my "location" - - - it has a lot to do with that...

all of what you wrote is great, it really is.



"i want to grasp that
take it in my hand
and run with it
far from this suffocating land
im starving here
we're starving here"

I feel the same way
the same way

 

[VertigoGal]

I'm so glad you could relate to that!

I really do hate fake laughter, fake everything

thank you

 

[For Honor]

Oh yeah, fake everything...

Sincerity means so much to me. I can understand why it is neccesary to not be completely honest sometimes, but especially in personal / interpersonal stuff, honesty is something I really value.

For me, it's just the right way to act. And I suppose it is easier for me, too, I don't know.

Honesty is sort of the gateway to having real things, I guess. And something that is real is much better than something that is only an illusion, as far as I am concerned.


again, nice job
