It haunts me in my dreams,
And echos when I'm awake.
Complicated tones,
Spitting violence in my face.
Radiate your evil smile,
It makes me feel at home.
Play your tricks on my mind,
In the darkness all alone.
(chorus)
I cry in the night,
And I call your name,
Can you hear me?
I feel your poison,
Running through my veins,
It's like heroin.
Your devastating whisper,
Leaves it's imprint on my soul.
It penetrates my brain,
Refusing to let go.
Your voice will haunt me,
Until my dying day.
If I could hear it one more time,
Then maybe I could stay insane.
(Chorus)
I cry in the night,
And I call your name,
Can you hear me?
I feel your poison,
Running through my veins,
It's like heroin.

I liked it. It's so consuming to the reader. Nice expression for wanting something really bad. What category of music would this be in?
-
-
I definatly see this in the dark gothic rock style complete with a magnificent rock ballad guitar solo in the bridge.

Awesome <3
Normaly, I hate reading songs.
But. I love this =]
It's so powerful.
At first I thought this piece was about Heroin, but when I read on I realized it's about a person? I think? I hope I got that right and don't look like an idiot now ^.^
I love the lines :
Your voice keeps haunting me,
Until my dying day.
If I could hear it one more time,
Then maybe I could stay insane.
And the parts that rhyme in this are fantastic =]
Thank you for entering and Good Luck!!!

I really liked this. It worked really well and flowed along very nicely. Kind of reminded me of Linkin Park in some areas, or rather I could hear it to something similiar. Well done. Thanks for entering.

I was a little shady on the lyrics option - wasn't sure if I would enjoy entries from this section. But this was great! I love the momentum and the way it all comes together. I even loved the chorus *shock horror*.
Well done and good luck in the competition.

Very well written and very dark I did like this very much. It says quite a bit about a horrible drug. Keep on writing you have real talent
-
Good write! I love how you say the other person is your poison, and that you're trying to stay insane. I also like your reference to heroin, as how it's rotting you from the inside. Good write, and keep writing!

nice work; really, I dont say that often, I like the way you keep it simple with just strong words... you really should write music to it if you get the chance, it's too good to keep only half finnished

thanks for the comment, although the song is about an addiction to a person in which feels like being addicted to heroin. yet I'm glad that it may seem like it really is about heroin.
-
wow, very deep and full of emotions... I love it. I have been there I'm a recovering herion addict I have 2 1/2 yrs clean and every day it's a stuggle to stay that way. the day I get comfortable with my recovery is the day I relapse.
-
Only in my head so far.
-
Wow... this is hauntingly beautiful.... stunning... do you have written music for it?
wow...
