Guest Respect The 'Taker Report post Posted January 18, 2003 Just wondering if there are any closet song writers around here that have some serious work they'd be prepared to share with the public. I've been writing a few songs recently, however i've always wanted to see someone else's work that wasn't on the scale of a professional, but more of just someone like me. So if anyone out there has something they feel is worth while, lets see it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest tank_abbott Report post Posted January 18, 2003 Here's a parody I wrote about Serial Killer Ed gein ...Done to the tune of "American Pie" I also have 20+ parodies I have written in the past:Ed Gein's Americana A Long Long Time ago A man lived who was both meek and vile And he knew if he had the chance He'd dress up in skins and go outside to dance Then He'd be happy for a while Oh but Eddie's secret could make you shiver The way he'd tear out his victem's liver When he brought the corpse home He cut them up And Explore each inch He'd cut out Vaginas with pride Oh Now Eddie Knew what women looked like inside Soon After Augusta died So (Refrain) Oh Why Why Augusta did you have to die You drove Eddie crazy Now's He's hanging up skins to dry In the Small town of Plainfield W. I. They're all asking Why Eddie Why Eddie thought Augusta was pretty like a dove and She tught him about the God Above Augusta said the town was full of whores Impure down to their cores And God would not approve of their darken souls So She forbade Eddie from dancin' slow Cause no girl was pure enough for him So no girls ever danced with him Oh Eddie never touched no booze Augusta threatened to abuse Oh Eddie became one messed up fuck Dragging home bodies in his pick up truck He knew how much his life did suck The day Augusta died (Refrain) Now for a few months Eddie's been on his own Skinning people to the bone But that's not how he wants it to be He wants to see his mother, his queen Now you may find Eddie obscene But he was just like you and me Except for when he was feelin' down He drank from his victems crown His house was a mess Eddie didn't care i guess And While Eddie read a book of war Victems heads rolled on the floor And Eddie danced once again in the dark Soon after Augusta died (Refrain) Hell's Shelter was on Eddie's farm During winter or when it was warm The body count rising fast And still Eddie danced on the grass While Churchgoers went to mass No one looked at this aghast Now the bodies were smelling up the room So Eddie choose to burn them soon And once again dance But this time he had lost his chance Cause Kids were playing in his field And Eddie choose not to unshield He had to much to reveal Soon after Augusta died (Refrain) Oh While at the local bar From Eddie's house not very far Eddie saw evil here again So Eddie got his gun and he did stick The bullet in bartender's back real quick And sent the she- Devil to Hell Oh no one caught on yet So Eddie had to reason to fret He now had a new toy And he chopped her up, Oh Boy! On another day, no not a night, Eddie shot another lady in plain sight But he left to many clues, alright Soon after Augusta died (Refrain) So Eddie was caught, but he played dumb But in his house was a human skin drum So now his secrets were revealed Masks, Chairs, Lamps, Vests, and much more Made of skins , oh what gore Around his house many bodies lay And in the end the town screamed This was worse than they could ever dream The sacred bond of death was broken Cause Eddie liked women who were Chroken' And the person he thought most swell Was Augusta, who made him mentally unwell He loved her til he came to Hell Soon after Augusta died (Refrain) So why why did I tell you about this guy? Drove you loony, with my goony Local Killer's Cry Well just stop asking the who, whats, and whys Cause I'll be a Geiner til the day I die! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest snuffbox Report post Posted January 18, 2003 Ive written a few. My first music epoch was a couple years ago with very heavy metal. Wrote one full, decent song, but lost the music and lyrics. Best effort I had of the time. Wrote some more late last year when I was able to borrow a guitar for awhile. Much mellower stuff, Smashing Pumpkinsish. Nothing was recorded, and I have no idea how to type my guitar shit on the net, but if your actually interested...I have the lyrics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Respect The 'Taker Report post Posted January 18, 2003 Watching me ATTEMPT to play a guitar is truly a sight...really, it is. Lyrics is really what i was after anyways, just to see how different people express themselves and how deeply they do so.

Guest tank_abbott Report post Posted January 18, 2003 I feel the need to defend myself, as I hand wrote that song myself, prior to last summer. I live near where Ed Gein did his crimes, and I am a big "fan" of his. There are alot of songs about Ed written and mass released. Look up the Website titled "The World of Ed Gein" and there's a whole list of them. I have put the song out on a few sites already... however i guess I can't prove its my own unless I invite you over to my house to see the rough draft and many notes I took to write that song... More proof pending... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest snuffbox Report post Posted January 18, 2003 ‘Ghosts’ Ingest the still photos Of your heart and mind Of every day Gone wrong or right Embrace the change And fall for the next To make you feel Like you never thought you could As the ghosts of the past remind us Regrets assume the pose Of all we thought we’d be And tomorrow hobbles on Take all you need And then some more No empty hands Walk out my door Our lights of guidance Begin to fade As sounds of defiance Resolve to abate As the ghosts of the past remind us Regrets assume the pose Of all we thought we’d be And tomorrow hobbles on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest snuffbox Report post Posted January 18, 2003 'Vacancy' So the night did arrive Peeled from walls of emptiness The only walls to ever hear your pain Dreams crash to earth like rain And all you’ve ever, never asked for Is the world within your hands And all you’ve really ever needed Just the slight things to carry off your day For the world to you to stop and look at you and all you do Collar turned to those behind you You know you’re right, never conform to Pain, you know, like the back of your hand Fear, like the pain at the back of your head And to love it seems is the lost part of your heart All alone some more just stand there Soon a dream dispatched will land there Solitaire, honed in a blank stare Your angel’s fake and you don’t care Lie alone in silent wonder And another’s dream of you reaches out in slumber And so a heart lies dormant Looking for a peak to stand at To gaze down at those who looked so wrong above you All is the same, and all is anew Collar turned to those behind you You know you’re right, never conform to You know, you know, you know From any angle you are the best view You know you’re right to Never conform to Vacancy Your pain No Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest CoreyLazarus416 Report post Posted January 18, 2003 I've written a few songs, but none of them have I had more pride in than this tune. The title is taken from a song my buddy Steve and I wrote when we were forming a band, but we decided to go opposite ways due to musical differences (I wanted a hardcore power/thrash hybrid, he wanted to jam to Cannibal Corpse and Sabbath). So I wrote my own lyrics to the song, wrote my own riffs (I wrote all but one of the riffs to the song anyways), and kept my chorus. "No Place For Man" INTRO We're going to war... VERSE 1 And so, at dawn, the soldier marches on With fear and life in his eyes He never will forget the words his father said Regardless of how hard he tries Reach the next town, his muddy clothes brown He gets ready to celebrate his life Looking for a girl to make his mind swirl A woman that isn't his wife He wipes off the dust, mind filled with lust A woman that makes him feel alive Body turns to mush, acting like a putz As he loses his will to survive The siren is declared, the soldier feels repaired No longer thinking of this hell He grabs his helmet fast, perhaps this won't last And so he thinks to himself CHORUS This is no Place for man (x3) INTERLUDE 2 Back to the fields... VERSE 2 Orders coming from the setting of the sun Orders to commit suicide Tries to keep his couth, no knowledge of the truth Just goes along for the ride Friends dying alone, the king gets his throne By the blood of his brother Spirit is worn, clothes tattered and torn Then he turns around to kill another Slay your enemy, destroy his family Firey death that awaits Burn the village down, houses to the ground Destroy the city's gates A simple young man, no knowledge of the plan Does everything that they tell Witness the violence, deafened but no silence As he thinks to himself CHORUS This is no Place for man (x3) INTERLUDE 3 NAPALM Burn it all down INTERLUDE 3 BODIES Dropping to the ground CHORUS This is no Place for man (x6) I could type up the guitar tabs, but that'd take me a LONG time...

Guest JAxlMorrison Report post Posted January 18, 2003 I used to own my own website with all my stuff on it while I was trying to get a band going. I have kind of slowed up, as in instead of writing a song a day, I might write one every month or two. Either way, I have a lot of stuff on www.geocities.com/jbored105/opener.html if you are interested in checking them out. I think the best stuff is in the New Songs section.

I have the lyrical/vocal capacity of a nu grunge musican. (none) I can come up with cool random statements but can't fit them to music for shit. I've written a few 6-10 second grind songs though. "Lego entrails, plastic glands." "Bring me my pipe and slippers before I molest you." "Cloud my eyes with scarab lids, I cannot see through lead." Utter gibberish and tripe, all of it, but fun to play. By the way, that was three different songs in their entirety. By the way, the titles of those songs go as follows: Synthetic Lymph, Weird Uncle Violet, and 20/20. They're basically outbursts and nothing more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest R2DFooster McSockman Report post Posted February 2, 2003 I posted these lyrics on another board as an (attempted) parody of the other sub-Linkin Park "woe is me!" crap that filled their artists forum: Broken heart cannot be mended, Black mist seeps out, will not be ended, The agony ever-growing in me, Burns as fire in my eyes for all to see. My scarred soul can never sleep, Fire still in eyes while they do weep, Eternal suffering I've already met, Forever holding that one last regret. Salt in the wounds which will never heal, From me my innocence you did steal, Never to return, leaving me shattered, Grind me up and leave me scattered. People complimented my work. I cried.
