Progress

Sometimes it seems like you're,
Waiting for me to fall to my knees and cry.
Curl up into a ball so mummy can finally say,
"I was right."
Where did that love and support go?
You pretend to be there, well at least you try.
Where did your loving support go?
Did it flee when you revised your life?


I don't wanna fall down your trap,
Cause you ain't coming back.
I don't wanna ever be what you are,
Broken, beaten nothing more.
I wanna show my fight, show my light.
Show that I am something more,
That what you're hoping for.


*a rap*
And I want to thank you, who showed me what not to do in life.
Be a trophy wife, stand small when your partner beats you down.
Make excuses, turn your smile around.
I don't want to be beaten like you were, pushed down, forced out, I'm living in a new world.
We offer you help but you just won't take it, makes me wonder what my mistake is.
All I want to do is free you from your chains and save you from your God aweful place.
But you don't understand the place that your in, you're being pushed down, worn out, and when did this begin?
Because I'm stood at the site of crime and I can hear it, little girl Jaimie she's crying, no she's weeping!
For a mother who won't stop a harmful bastard, all because he's your love, well news flash love.
He's been rotting out your life since you met him, and yet you never seem to regret him.
Cause its never his fault, it's all in his head, his inner demons are making him see red.
Well he should hold back and stop his attack, stop cutting him that slack.
Cause soon I'll be eighteen, let's look at the scene, mother and the monster, wondering if they're gonna,
See their youngest daughter, the one who begged he'd go.
What is the answer, I can't pretend to know but chances are I'll go, run as far as I can see.
You might be stuck with him but me I'm running free.


I don't wanna fall down your trap.
Cause you ain't coming back.
I don't wanna ever be what you are.
Broken, beaten nothing more.
I want to show my fight, show my light, Show that I am something more.
That what you're hoping for.

And I can feel the contrast,
Burning me within,
Like a Saint bathing in sin.
It's rotting me, taking me out.
I'm crumbling and crashing down.
But I want to fight.
I'm gonna show my light.
Cause you know I will be more.
That what you're, hoping for.

Not dead, just resting

Hello, glue.... ers

um

anyway, I just wanted to let you all know what'sgoing on in my half of BTG (I haven't really heard much from Tempest so...)

Basically, I'm busy as hell.

Last week I had tou with my school band (basically we just did concerts at schools around the north of Tassie) and in the week coming up I've got lots of stage work with the school, doing more concerts and helping drama kids...

so I haven't really had a chance to do much for this band

I've been trying to write an original song for a while now and... it's getting there, probably.

I have some slightly good news though! I'm getting a camera for Christmas and hopefully, with that, I can get a microphone setup going and finally record some stuff!

Anything recorded right now will just be covers and the like, but I may eventually be able to work something out with my other band member, so fingers crossed.

That's all for now guys!

*Tempest pop up*

As for me mocks and homework aren't helping with the whole "YOU HAVE SONGS TO WRITE!" And I'm kinda have a mental block in terms of writing songs because all the Christmas songs I know are screaming at me and so is all the exam info and the Christmas plotting and the "you should get a job thing" so yeah, noisy brain doesn't make song writing easy.

I have read the draft that is on the blogs admin board thingy that Snowy has written and its sounding good. I like it.


For now I'll just say this; we will keep writing! And we'll work on a collaborative performance if we can. I'll hoping to get a computer for Christmas if I can, then I'm hoping to get cubase so that I can get guitar recordings (etc) from snow, add drums from me and then add whoever is doing vocals recording as well so that I can TRY combine them into an actual song for you all to listen to.

That's all for now Gloonies!
Also comment below what animal you think Snow and I would be if we were animals! I'm intrigued.
