14th of February

I watch the guys go running by
As the sun sets in the orange sky
They're all in the shops to buy
Things for their girls to make them feel nice

Don't know why all of a sudden
They need to show how much they love 'em
With cute stuffed sun bears and heart shaped chocs
Cheesy old cards that say 'Love Rocks'

They're placing ads in the papers
They've thought of places to go together
They're praying for good weather
And I'm watching the sun go down...
Guy walks up, he's next to me
We're looking at the sky but there's nothing to see
I'm just glad not to be alone

I don't like stuffed bears, hate heart shaped chocs
Wouldn't ever buy a card that said 'Love Rocks'
I'd never place an ad in the papers
And I wouldn't think of where to go until later
The sun's gone down, it's an empty sky
We're still there, me and this guy
Don't know why, but we stood right there
And I'd give anything, to have the day that he did

I don't have a worry
Not a care in the world
Fourteenth of Fenruary
And I don't have a girl
I try to say that I'm happy
That it's just another bloody day
Fourteenth of February
Why don't you love me...

He gave her the bear, she read the card
She hated it, but she forced the smile hard
He took her for a long walk in the park...
And then they got lost in the dark
She got scared and she caught his arm
I asked him to, but he wouldn't go on...

He turned around he was looking at me
I knew what he was expecting from me
He must've though I had a nice story, like his...
And we were looking at the sky with nothing to see
And I told that I'd had a nice day
But I'd give anything to have the day that he did

I don't have a worry
Not a care in the world
Fourteenth of Fenruary
And I don't have a girl
I try to say that I'm happy
That it's just another bloody day
Fourteenth of February
Why don't you love me...

Oh, let's all guess why I wrote this one...duh. Well, just so you know, it's Exactly how I feel right now. The song is all depressin because I've been studying Socail studies for my boards. Yes, that subject does cause depression.

Echo

Nothing I do is mirrored by the world around me
Nothing I wear becomes a theme
Nothing I feel gets felt the same
Nothing I say will be said again

I'm a drop in this ocean
A bee in this hive
I'm a leaf on this tree and I have a dream
So-does-everybody-else
Listen to yourself!

Yea, do you hear it?
Don't you know what that is...
Yea, do you hear it?
So-do-I
=That is the echo in an empty mind= (4)

I walk on two feet ... like everybody
I want to feel ... like everybody
I think that I can change the world
I think I'm different, LIKE EVERYBODY DOES

Stop, listen to yourself!
Block out all the noise!
Yea, do you hear it?
SO-DO-I
=That is the echo in an empty mind= (4)

Do you want to make a difference, join the club
Do you think that you are special, everyone does
Maybe this song, isn't original
But why should I, give a fuck

The world around us spins, but we haven't moven since
The ground's not gonna move for you, you have to bend your knees yourself
And if things aren't going smoothly, you're in a mess
Walk on...and save your skin

If you're unique you're nothing new
Everybody else is just like you
Everybody's special, everybody's right
Maybe that's the reason we get into so many fights

But if you're a drop in the ocean, splash around
If you're a bee in the hive, make your buzzing loud
If you're a leaf on a tree, be the last to fall
If you've got a dream, tell everyone!

You could try, to hold it in
In al this noise, in all this din
But you can't keep it down, It's much too loud
It's in all of us, the sound...

...If you think you're different , we're all the same...
NOTHING YOU SAY WILL BE SAID AGAIN

Listen to yourself!
Did you hear it this time?
Did you hear it?
SO-DID-I
=That is the echo in an empty mind= (4)


This is just a random song. Wrote it after I got my preboard 2 results, so maybe it might have something to do with that. But I don't really see the connection, the song's about the loss of individuality, (it's a milder version of RAGE) and hey, wow, no romantic stuff in this one. Achievement.
