  1. 3. High don't die

    [Verse 1]

    When i left you sitting there
    In your ugly wicker chair
    You didn't have to look at me
    You didn't have to pull that face

    Your final verdict was unfair,
    You hung up the joy decor
    And fell away at dusk
    We found you dead and we deplored
    Your ankles were on angel dust

    We weren't to worry, said the note
    The day is young and violent
    The fight was never inside
    Those were all the words you wrote

    [Pre Chorus 1]

    I feel like a planet
    With a tiny, bloody moon of sorrow
    It's been decades since we've sung it
    Our song of sorry sorrow

    [Chorus]

    She was immortal, with hairs so fine
    She had baby's skin, softer than wine
    We've all pursed upon tragedy's time
    She remains outside the line

    She chokes upon the little hairs
    The wine's reduced her skin to tears
    With the times come such tragic hearings
    She remains here whilst we're weeping

    [Verse 2]

    Oh my poor girl's ashen skin!
    Tinted by the dawn
    With eyes that writhe and reel
    Away into her skull

    Her nose and hands are bleeding down
    Where has the blood come from
    It pools around her head
    And sifts into her evening gown

    [Pre Chorus 2]

    I feel like a rocket
    With gasoline boiling inside my lungs
    She's waited years for us to sing to her
    Her song sung from the lungs

    [Chorus]

    She was immortal, with hairs so fine
    She had baby's skin, softer than wine
    We've all pursed upon tragedy's time
    She remains outside the line

    She chokes upon the little hairs
    The wine's reduced her skin to tears
    With the times come such tragic hearings
    She remains here whilst we're sleeping

  2. Strangers Again
    By: (me ?Elli)

    First Verse :
    We started off as strangers
    And we ended that way
    Sometimes the beginning
    Ends the same
    Oh how strange
    That when one meets
    That destiny would only bring them back
    To the beginning
    And just like
    We became strangers again
    Some say it’s a beautiful thing
    But I don’t understand
    We went through all that just to be strangers again

    Chorus:
    All that love turned into pain
    All the happy memories are killing me
    I can’t breath
    It’s all to much for me
    I will try to cope with the pain
    But I can’t promise anything
    Whyyyyy did it have to end this way
    I don’t understand
    We went through all that just to be strangers again
    Strangers again

    Second Verse:
    We started off as strangers
    And we ended that way
    Oh how strange
    That when one meets
    That destiny would only bring them back
    To the beginning
    And just like
    We became strangers again
    Some say it’s a beautiful thing
    But I don’t understand
    We went through all that just to be strangers again

    Chorus:
    All that love turned into pain
    All the happy memories are killing me
    I can’t breath
    It’s all to much for me
    I will try to cope with the pain
    But I can’t promise anything
    Whyyyyy did it have to end this way
    I don’t understand
    Why we went through all that to become strangers again

    Outro:
    (Leave the ending with the beet)

  3. Verse 1
    They always say that first loves never last
    Oh was I naive to not believe that?
    Do you ever think of me?
    Do you know how much you hurt me?
    Did you really have to leave?
    I know that she's pretty

    Chorus
    Please, please you gotta understand
    I don't know who I am without you
    I tell my friends, that I don't care what you do
    But deep down I know that's not true
    'Cuz everynight when I close my eyes
    you're right there in the front of my mind
    All I can see are those beautiful brown eyes

    Verse 2
    Sometimes I wonder if you ever dream about me
    Am I lying beside you?
    Hands tangled in your hair?
    In the hoodie of yours that I always used to wear
    Sometimes I wish that we didn't have to end
    That you weren't in love with your best friend
    But I know that it's better this way and it doesn't matter what I say

    Chorus
    Please, please you gotta understand
    I don't know who I am without you
    I tell my friends that I don't care what you do
    But deep down I know that's not true
    'Cuz everynight when I close my eyes
    You're right there in the front of my mind
    All I can see are those beautiful brown eyes

    Outro
    I used to think we would last forever
    now i see u and say "whatever"
    but i still think about
    your pretty eyes

  4. I composed a song??

    Title: Love is true, just look at you

    First verse:
    On my first try
    I can't help but to cry
    It was a nightmare
    The love who broke my heart

    I thought I was strong enough
    I didn't expect that I'm not that tough
    I was weak
    I couldn't breathe

    Chorus:
    And I don't lose hope
    That someday
    Someone will look at me say
    "You're my love,
    Nobody smile like you"

    And I'll wait for you my babe
    Turbulence and all the waves
    I'll face them all
    'cause God told me
    you're
    on the way

    Second Verse:
    It was a nice pain
    for the second time around
    I felt that again
    My world go round and round
    And I….will keep on moving
    will keep on going
    Life is hard but still a blessing

    Chorus:
    And I don't lose hope
    That someday
    Someone will look at me say
    "You're my love,
    Nobody smile like you"

    And I'll wait for you my babe
    Turbulence and all the waves
    I'll face them all
    'cause God told me
    you're
    on the way

    Outro:
    God is true
    'cause look at you
    Love is true
    just look at you
    look at you

  5. Lovely friends

    (First verse)
    If your feeling down, you go to someone. Your gonna be the low one.
    But I love my best friend, I go to her and she calms me down.
    I guess that’s nice. We play around

    (Chorus)
    That’s why we’re lovely friends I hate my old friend kenz, We are lovely friends and we’re the best, That’s why were lovely
    And you feel so so you should do the same as us and we’re gonna have some fun and we jump hooray like a huge parade, that’s why we’re lovely friends.

    When your angry, your friend is the same really, but you have to apologize, or calm with some nice rice. I know this is childish, but you don’t know. I don’t know what else to sing anymore… oh maybe I could go to Singapore.

  6. Lyrics:
    Title Last day of school
    Verse 1 “So I wake up getting ready to go to school but then realized it was the last day and started crying so I made a song about the things I missed about this class”

    Courus:
    “So I go on to school and hangout with my friends to spend the last 6 hours with them oh oh (x2) I miss this class

    Verse 2
    “So then I go and spend the last hour with them I say my goodbyes and started to cry because it is the last day of school”

    That’s all I have
    It’s about being sad on the last day
    It’s short

  7. well yeah, they'll always come and go
    and when they do, you never really know
    if you chase them or leave them alone
    if to cry or go with the flow

    does it hurt being an outcast?
    always getting walked passed?
    happy and even doubting that?
    always getting shouted at?

    must be difficult isn't it, hurting yourself
    and couldn't imagine how it could relief thyself
    abandoning everything yet you still care
    telling them yourself your so strong but you're so weak

    everyday just keeps repeating like some kind of infinit heartless world.
