Tales of Beedle the Bard

i like the second one i think it would sound good with an 808 downtempo beat and a few 7th chords, maybe a tad swing style to it

p.s. i'm very sorry about pretending to threaten your material trust me won't happen EVER again

hay

1.

I no longer want what I have worked so hard for,
I want everything else.
Remember to be steel you’re
so weak
I don’t want to believe
this is mine anymore,
I will return to everything
I used to be, I’m so full
of rage and I remember now
there is
something I am
reaching my hands
past you towards
it’s so sick but
it’s true and
I feel it deeper it
came so soon
but pulling it
out of my throat
won’t do me any good,
my organs will come with it
and I feel me coaxing out the evil
it feels so ****ing good I’ll make myself a god
I’m watching you build your shrines
that I’ll topple with my tiny feet
is there no one I can trust is
there no one I can tell lies to
I’ve forgotten that I didn’t want
to be here anymore.
I’m writing out my lives to strangers,
loves and lies to strangers

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I feel alive in something
that I’ve written down
on someone ears
can you hear
me speak toward a windowpane
I am laughing later than it seems
all you have to do
is wait for me to
blow forward
with kisses
tumbling out of a mouth that
sometimes is wrong but
always goes on.

Turn off the eyes to
turn them on brighter
it matches my smile that
curves around my face
do you think you
can match it up
tile for tile
it might take
forever it will surely
take a while

but I don’t wait to
stop running to
stop the laugh that
trails up my ankles
and over my hips
it remembers me?

Can’t you see?
It finds itself in the
warm water rising
into your skin to swallow it.

I feel alive I’ve
woken up to
tear apart the clay that
I always forget that
isn’t forged by
any other hand it
seems no other way
but now I
remember how to see.

Can’t they see you
past the spears in your heart?
I raise up my shoulders,
I’ll speak for myself this time,
every other time
you’ve taken my voice and
it’s louder than you are tall
--------------------------------

it seems like you could
coax the devil out of me or
grab it by its tail if it goes through
your hand you’ll not hold it against me
will you remember that I’ve bled too,
bled through
but don’t make me
carve you into my side if
I need to remember
I’ll pave the road
myself with my
pierced hands clawing at the dirt
in a joy that the body
feels but the mouth
cannot name if maybe you
could coax the devil out of me
I would not need to
stop myself from
swallowing this world whole
softening me up without
the broken nails.

It’s just that everyone
seems to forget that I
was only broken once
but you could
love me without
that need to smother it’s
a contagion
I don’t get the taste of
as close as it comes to you.

good morning musicbanter

new things:

something about pianos always makes me cry, all on the nights I can hear them and the chords blend on forever and it looks like they only come in read, and i feel sick the only sick come onto this purity i murdered for i emasculated them all and i'm still tossing it over my head. i guess it comes into place when you're tearing them apart, the early morning red smile, oh it feels like the honest hand in the arms of liars. they call my every demon and this heart made me a god, soon as i tore it out of them.

but i don't line myself up with yesterdays fancies

---------------------------------------------------

so i’ll liven up my whiskey glass
to separate for the pain
oh well, who cares
it wasn’t worth it anyways

all the goodness risen up to the slaughter
can i really say i’m not surprised
and between the days i can forget
right where it hurts

good faith was among my bad habits
i’ll try to pretend like it never happened
and until you come home you never existed
I wake up to this nightmare again and again

I chase after forgetfulness and I only feel it slip
while i know i was too good to be true
the loved ones seem to become
the exception
and not the rule

------------------------------------

here we rest, he says
he was always beautiful
forever flaunting feathers
he looks back at me
so skinny and so shrewish

I've been writing letters to you since before I was born
I spoke to you across the many years I guess it seems
and I weigh every word and send it back to you, just waiting
Now I'm dying and wishing that I'd never opened up that door
never cleaned the cupboards and ate up all the pantry
And I ask myself why can't just give them all up

Give them up to let go and let God in
My fingertips did spell out faith once
but it's just never the right kind
So just leave and never come back

I'll turn up my hands as a sacrifice
I can't cross back to the street
to where I left my spine
I can't mark it and sing sweetly
this was mine, once was mine.

--------------------------------------
I can’t say that he knows how to count the lies he counts on his own but are you watching me walking away you were so wrong

I’ve got all these lies
holding up to hide
the claws in my chest
I’m doing my best
I’m doing my best to forget
that you believed it was
for you nothing I say now
will count towards making
that one slip untrue

wont you believe me
on the nights I wake up with
your name on my lips
im falling apart pulling apart
day by skipping day I wake up to forget,
wake up to forget what ive come to regret
which cripples me from all the way under
pulling out the nerves from my skin
like petals fall apart
he loves me he loves me not
did I tell the truth
im telling lies
to everyone but you
I swear I swear the flowering rage
prescribes me a pain Its drowning into me I’m pulling it out
To remember this is to die
I’m on a mission to forget you exist
forget my heart is in your hands
you only smash smash so careless
that it feels itself out of the hole in my chest
It’s a myth that finds itself destroying my lungs
Choking itself out of me
do you believe me now? Do you believe in how…
It’s curving my spine into a scream, with its silence it’s heaviness is my everyday sickness that ive never seen its breaking my back the hollow rage it has become my blood and bone it sinks its teeth into me when I’m all alone the longing is dripping into my skull like molten gold can you just tell me, tell me again when can I feel whole?
All these things. All these things.
You’ll never know.

I just wanted to be good
I just wanted to be good for you

---------------
bye musicbanter xoxo

It seems to be my legacy,
breaking things that are right in front of me,
fixing them up and making them whole,
those things they're too big to swallow I apologize,
there's just too much of me to tie down to you and
contorting myself tends to let me fly away like I did before,
catching my hair on the tree branches,
forever leaving parts of myself behind.
Hansel and Gretel, who know's what goes between your eyes?

~~Sansa Stark~~ · 05-24-2013, 08:35 PM

sigh.

------
It seems to me that you are my madness, my true madness,
without a standing sickness, except with the hands of love,
holding up the flesh I tore spart myself, a mistaken rage,
my violence is contained, I bury it,
I bury you inside me, can you stay there forever,
can you sleep in the space between my knees? I can feel myself exploding with hope.
Where there was organs there are red, blinding sparks.
Tell me, am I bandaged in faith? Good god, I aspired to be less than this.
I'm sealing this envelope with my own blood, freely given, not forcibly shed, can you tell?
Am I transparent in all the hours I've been collecting,
the words I pick up at the side of the road.
I nurse sentences back to health,
you'll see them with their new lives in reference to you, only you.
It was only ever you.
The scratches of a diamond on a mirror,
I can now see the future, your hand is on my shoulder.
How can you trust me not to break your fingers?
I'm chewing on fear, this doesn't belong to you, but maybe I do.

~~Sansa Stark~~ · 06-04-2013, 03:56 AM

I'm building up this bridge
just to tell you that wasn't your lie
no, the things you read into
don't always belong to you.

all the lonely men, the weapons of choice
I carved my name into them,
but found them bloodless,
I filled in their names with black ink

Twenty miles high, the skyline built on
a typewriter's clacking keys
26 ways of unlocking into me
I offer them all, up to you

Don't misplace the threads, please
they've sewn me back together so tightly
but being in pieces is not unthinkable
when those parts rest in your hands.
