Ashes Of The Phoenix - Lyrics (Work-in-Progress)
[VERSE 1]
Bleeding heart, aching soul/Waited for you
Lost my mind, tryin’ to hide/Myself from the truth
Realization
Came too late
With your lips, I sealed my fate
[CHORUS]
Blinded by your beautiful lies
A bittersweet... sacrifice.
Took away my life/My light
Left me falling/Into the night
[HOOK]
Thought you’d love me (love me)/ ’Till the end (‘till the end)
Now I know...
It was all pretend. (it was all pretend)
[VERSE 2]
Foolish girl, gave you all/Trusted the descent
Poison kiss, sunk deep within/Passion hid the intent
Unfaithfulness
In all but name
Took my youth, threw it all away
[CHORUS]
[HOOK]
[BRIDGE]
The games/The pain
The suffering/The shame
How could you leave me, with all the blame?
The games/The pain
The suffering/The shame
How could you think, we’d ever be the same?
[CHORUS]
[HOOK]
[REPEAT VERSE 1]
Realization
Came too late (came too late)
With your lips, I sealed (sealed) my fate (i sealed my fate)
Yes/Realization
Came too late (came too late)
With your lips, I sealed (sealed) my fate (i sealed my fate)
[VERSE 3]
Like the phoenix, burning bright/Reaching the end
Don’t wanna stand, Don’t wanna fight/Nothing left ’ta defend
Out of the ashes
Now I rise (i rise), No need (no need) for tender goodbyes (no tender goodbyes)
Not the fool you thought I’d be
Without you here, I’m finally free...
A Resumption of Madness
So I realize I started this wonderful Blog and got a rather powerful response, then I totally stopped writing. I also started about 3 or 4 other more personally-themed blogs and again only wrote a few posts and stopped. I suppose I have this bad habit of starting things, but not always following through to the end. BAD BAD BAD HABIT!!!
Anyway, I have decided to resume the blog. I am currently working on some new and very ORIGINAL music. I have always wanted to make music of my own and now I'm finally motivated enough to really do it.
I have started work on 2 tracks. One I wrote the lyrics to last year, "Ashes Of The Phoenix". It will be the title track to my first album when I have completed it. I will be starting to play with some music for it next week. (FINALLY!) I have also started to write another song, 'Lost". I came up with a melody and beat before I wrote any lyrics. I am still writing the lyrics and working on the music it is DEFINITELY a work-in-progress.
I will be posting lyrics and music later. So please check them out as they come. I will be tracking my progress in this blog. I will also continue to post essays, photos, etc as they come to mind.
If you're interested... Follow along as I continue to journey into the depths of my mind... Who knows where all this will lead; I just find it to be a healthy outlet for my creativity and a good way to pass the time.

Self-Esteem - Written 7-6-10
Sitting here…
Thinking, wondering;
Not knowing why it had to be…
Lost in a world of sadness,
I wasn’t happy to be me.
Searched for validation
Through the love of another;
Only to be beaten down,
Broken,
Left torn asunder.
The only thing he did for me
Was take away my dreams.
Hoped for a chance
At something more;
A way to escape
All the pain
That came before.
Would I be able,
To save myself…
Before I finally drowned?
Couldn’t listen any longer
To the lies…
Skillfully wove.
Meant to keep me suffering,
In the darkness,
All alone.
In this way,
I came to learn,
No one else can set you free….
In order to find contentment,
One must see:
To be beautiful is to be imperfect;
Though not everyone agrees…
Now that I have
Opened my eyes,
I finally have found,
Self-esteem.
