Yeah, I think you kind of already made that clear You better. I envy you for writting awesome songs now. XD Thanks anyways though Anyways guys, I'm back in buisness doing one of my favourite things that I've done on this forum and that is posting songs. This is easily one of the most complicated songs I have ever written. Originally, based on a poem I wrote and posted here a few months ago ("Nightmare") this song is the first song in a series of three songs I called “Chasing Horizons, As We Fall…" (It's kinda like "Jesus Of Suburbia" by Greenday in that, they play about 3 songs on the one track.) Anyway, this first song is a lot like a Story of the Year song, and changes from Harmonic Vocals to Screams in the lyrics (Anything in red means it is screamed). This song would be played by your basic rock band (Two Guitarists, Bass Guitarist and Drummer) and the Guitars would have heavy crushing riffs (somewhere between Nickelback's and Killswitch Engage's). In the 3rd verse however, all the heavy rock from the song dies down and it becomes a lot more harmonic and melodically based (until it returns to the chorus again). The screams are also faded behind the instruments and lead vocals (wherever it says "< Screams Faded in Background" across from the line of a song) Anyway, here it is. This is called "Nightmare" and you can expect to more songs to follow this one, "Cure" and "Still Here". When I'm done I'll post them all as one and so you the switches made from song to song and all that. So, yeah... Hope you like it! Chasing Horizons, As We Fall… i) NightmareBehind that mask,That second face you hide.I can't believe it's you. Staring down my wrist,Seeing the dragon's coil. Sending this cold heart,Through a twist of pain and toil. [Chorus] But then I see your face,Revealed to me. To now realise,We can never be. I cast aside this weapon, callous and unkind. Turn and run.Running away, To leave this nightmare, forever behind (forever behind)Yeah, as this mind spins, This body is still mobile. The disease wins,My spirit no longer noble Open up my eyes, And gaze within, but please...Don't be shocked with what you see. Take this soul right back, Because I still feel, like this soul.Is not a part of me anymore. [Chorus] [3rd Verse/Guitars Dye Down and Play Softly, Bass gets deeper and more soothing, Cymbals Played Softly in Background] As you give it all away, Wallowing alone. (Heart weakening, Mind wondering) < Scream Faded in BackgroundYeah, you give it all away Heart weaking, mind wondering. (How can I, do this?) < Scream Faded in Background You give it all away...To me (me)... < Scream Faded in Background[Returns to Normal Style] Yeah! < held[Chorus] x2 [As the Song Ends, the Electric Guitar slowly dies down and the sound of an Acoustic Guitar being played behind it grows clearer and clearer (The intro to the next song "Cure")] Spyder: ^ So... What do you guys think? Expect to see "Cure" soon, followed shortly by "Still Here".

Wow! Lots of your stuff is really, really good.
Walk away, Don’t wander lost in here… Make this in, out, And this far, near… Scream out loud, over to me… And lie awake, forever, In the ray of hope in this bad dream…
Absolutely beautiful. <3 I look forward to reading more. Do you have any recordings of the actual songs? I would love to hear them. ;D

Thanks, you guys I really appreciate it, and for the record: No, I don't have any recordings of the song unfortunately.
1. My band and I are still composing the music And 2. We don't know how to record it, my guess is though we'll just use video cameras or something XD
Hopefully I will have something up someday though.

Well, here it is. I've been telling Ash (who was the inspiration to some of it - namely, the opening line XD) and a few others about this song for awhile. It's called "The Distance" and refers to the distance that exists between me and all my friends that I have from different parts of the world, and the fact that we're still trying to maintain a relationship despite this.
Anyway, I'll let you interpret it yourself. Hope you like it!
The Distance
The world is still hollow, And so are my dreams. I seemed to have loved you, Though loves not what it seems.
[Chorus] And I'm in third gear, Lying awake here. In fear of losing, Losing sight of you.
And like a sheded tear, I'm crashing down here. Running on what's left of my existance. Still wondering, will I ever go the distance?
My heart is still broken, Your mind still in shreds. I’m so sick of this sorrow, I thought I’d paid all my debts.
No but this pain is still here, Though we’re miles apart. You’re stripped from my memory, But still remain in my heart.
[Chorus]
I never meant to fall away, Oh so far from you. I never to take away, Kept me sure of what I wanted to, do.
[Chorus] x2
