Celtic, You are getting better and better ;) Good for you.
This song is one of your best songs,To be frank with you its better than Wine Bottle Air Guitar :cool:
My favorite part is:
Suggestion: Its gonna be a great idea if you add a small index in the first page of your thread, contains every song name:Quote:

Just like that !!
Thanks for your feedback, and I gotta say I love the idea. :lol:
Anyway it's been done, so now there is a page one index. And you have been credited for the idea on the first post. Thanks.
Wow celtic!!!! Quite a collection you got here. I've read most of your lyrics and they're really good man. Make a song soon and sent it on the radio or myspace or something. :LOL: Your lyrics are awesome and you always have fresh ideas. Really good man.
Exorcism
There was a place in my head,
A sanctuary, my space,
my domain, my own place.
Now I'm forced to wonder...
Could I be dead?
TEARING, MINDLESS TEARING
SHAKE, SHUDDER, TWITCH,
POSSESSED,
LET ME GO
My conflict, my peace,
that voice,
told me I was me.
Now it's gone,
a habit quit,
fragile minds,
had a fit.
A FIRE, NO FLAME,
DRIVING ME,
DRIVING ME INSANE
BURNING
Crazed sanity,
infernally divine.
The thoughts of the drug,
that I had made mine.
No longer me,
but what am I,
if not a psychotic,
greatly stoned guy?
IRON WILL,
IT'S CORRODING
A HUNGER, A GREED,
I NEED IT NOT
A world more real,
though certainly duller,
a test of myself,
no reward, sure.
Once a playground,
my thoughts, now pure.
Thoughts mine,
the demon gone,
the angel left as well,
Certainly no heaven,
but surely it's no hell.
Exorcised...
________________________
This is my first song in a bit of a while. I managed to finish it due to the better part of my six and a half hour day of school being rather boring. That and I had half of the song ready in my head. Yes this is another with an awful lot of rhyme, but it IS a song. Mainly as this one really does require an imagined beat for full effect. But I hope you like it anyway. Feel free to comment.
- celtic. :lol:
Well, Not to mention the others but this one is really good ;)
I totally agree with Fishie, You always have fresh ideas for yours poems and because of this your poems are great to read !Quote:

Hey Celtic, kindness forces me to tell you that these small collection of lyrical poems that you have here are, in fact, professional quality! You seriously could make a living off this and by saying that I am 100% serious.
The works you have here are great!
No-One's War
Draining Shell
and
Exorcism
Are marketable lyrics!
I really enjoy these, but you might want to think about somehow securing rights to these lyrics!
Either way, they are really great and I hope you keep writing!
You told me about it on IM today. See? School is good for something. At last, the one question , about the purpose of it is answered. Heh heh.
It's a good onr considering that you wrote it in school. I never could focus on anything there.
NOTE: The weird thing is that it reminds of stuff others have written. You lot seem to have a style following a certain form. If i ever wrote, it would be different.
Yep. Rhymery is good in songs and in poems too ya know. Keeps the flowing going on and stuff. Anyways awesome song once again!
The Exorcism one is one of my favorite's so far. Something about it just puts a certain beat to my head and I can see it becoming a hit. Its really powerful not to mention. I'm guessing that they're personal or of how you feel about certain things and yeah. Keep it up!
What if someone wanted to put some music behind these lyrics? Would you let them? The reason I ask is because I like the lyrics to Song For the Fallen (Vigilante's requiem). I think this song would go great with a sorta metal feel to it. Whadya think?
I think you're on to something there. If anyone wants to play around with them, be my guest. Just make sure to let people know that came up with the words, and you guys, the beats. :woot:Quote:

Howl (Primal Mind)
Restless energy of a tireless hound,
Mind's to sharp to be put in the pound,
Placid eyes sparkle,
it's gonna be fun,
this dog's gonna go for a run.
Primal mind,
understanding less,
than the facade,
have you understand.
There's blacks and whites,
made gray,
Illusions dispelled,
colour blind,
so I stay,
primal mind.
Get hit, why?
No real reason.
Placidity fades,
rage contorts.
A fury comes out,
claws as fists,
fists as claws.
Sparkle a flame,
tail wag a howl.
New enthusiam,
appetite for destruction,
beast's furore.
Teeth bared,
temper flared,
the simple rage,
of a primal mind.
Primal mind,
understanding less,
than the facade,
have you understand.
There's blacks and whites,
made gray,
Illusions dispelled,
colour blind,
so I stay,
primal mind.
Bite back,
the rage inside.
Fight back,
frustrated mind.
Rip and snarl,
til an end is found,
end to a menace,
or an end to the hound.
Primal mind,
understanding less,
than the facade,
have you understand.
There's blacks and whites,
made gray,
Illusions dispelled,
colour blind,
so I stay,
primal mind.
Clouds go by,
moonlight returns,
as vision restores,
so do concerns.
Clawless fist,
human wrist,
warm blood trickles down.
If not a beast, colourblind,
what is there to find?
Primal mind.

My newest song lyrics. As always, feel free to comment. :woot:
I told you that I wasn't going to post for a while but screw that, I'm gonna do it anyways. You know how I do. :D
This is really good man. Your words seem really strong. As I was reading the song, I could just visualize the whole time. I like that fact that this song seems dark though. It gives me this chill, but in a good way as I'm reading it. Great work!
Thoughts of a Beast
Watch in the shadows,
without a sound.
Ears are sharp,
as sharp as a hound.
He watches his prey,
they're predators too.
An eerie smile,
he certainly knew.
AND THEN HE GOES WILD,
taking them down,
with effort so mild.
For his nature is,
rather chaotic.
Some people might say,
a little psychotic.
But the thought of him,
is often enough.
Because when he plays,
he plays rather rough.
AND THE REST HAVE FLED,
seems the predator,
has filled them with dread.
No conflict it seems,
things should be good.
But the predator,
so hungrily,
wished to go savage,
if he could.
A SOUL CORRUPT.
Breaking free,
crazed thoughts interrupt.
Wanting some conflict,
wanting a fight.
Wanting a way to test out his might.
THEN HE THINKS OF YOU,
and begins to smile.
Sanity restored,
at least for the while.
Yes he thinks of you,
and begins to smile.
His sanity's restored,
at least for the while...

Here's my latest piece. This one I actually liked, but it was originally just a practice piece I wrote for my mate to use as a test. It uses a very similar rhythm to one of my favourite songs. More some lyric scrappery than a real song though. Anyway, enjoy. :lol:
Like I said on MSN, your songs are getting darker. Looking back from how you first posted your songs up to now, they have changed alot. Your words have gotten more descriptive and I'm starting to notice somewhat you have a writing of your own. The way you write your songs are really unique.
You need to turn them into a song though! I want to go on Myspace one day, click the music page, and see you on the front page! Any of these could make really good songs.
Looped
Lying on the grass,
thoughts to the cloud,
events a pattern,
chronologically round.
A moment of peace,
I find precious.
Still, wouldn't have it any other way,
No.
A life unseen,
events repeat.
It's become a dream,
an endless replaying scene.
A scene of this and that,
a scene of scattered thoughts,
a dream, though not fiction.
Think to before,
a peace of sorts,
a bunch of friendly faces.
In a few hours,
to them I'll be no more.
Still I care,
they do too.
A sincere facade,
illusion of an illusion.
Eighteen hours more,
before this dream's back to before.
A life unseen,
events repeat.
It's become a dream,
an endless replaying scene.
A scene of this and that,
a scene of scattered thoughts,
a dream, though not fiction.
Back to now, the clouds so hazy,
vision blurs,
my thoughts now lazy.
Mind goes again to what's next,
thoughts gonna be more crazy.
Dark out now, I see,
thoughts have cleared,
attitude becomes angry.
A fight amongst rivals,
few evil, none pure.
Real friends along,
together can't go wrong.
But then it rises,
sphere of gold,
back to before,
soul's left once more.
A life unseen,
events repeat.
Facade begins once more.
It's become a dream,
an endless replaying scene.
Tale's end once more.
A scene of this and that,
loops round,
a scene of scattered thoughts,
loops round.
A dream, my dream, though not fiction,
looped.

Angel of Destruction
Dead on the floor he suddenly rises,
emptiness clear in his eyes.
Looks to the other,
fear reflected,
only thing he can despise.
ANGEL OF DESTRUCTION
BLOOD STAINED WINGS
JAW HANGS TORN
DEMONIC INNOCENCE
NO CONTROL
Lurches forwards,
gaining speed,
the emptiness turns to flame.
Demonic smile,
angelic countenance.
It's clear his intent's to MAIM!
ANGEL OF DESTRUCTION
ANGRY IMMORTAL WILL
BLOOD SPILLED
CLOTHES SPLIT
SANITY GONE
His blood it flows,
but then he knows,
he cannot die,
it's how this goes.
Conflict must die,
so death he defies,
makes another rush.
ANGEL OF DESTRUCTION
DESTRUCTIVE AURA
SKIN OF WHITE
SCARLET RIVERS
A LIVING DEATH
And then he drops,
his life's been spent,
the sound of cops,
a bloody scent.
As life goes away,
few will mourn,
sky still gray,
until the dawn.
ANGEL OF DESTRUCTION
HOME AGAIN
Ongoing battle....
Lingering ideals....
Eternal conflict,
of the destructive angel.

Newest piece, a decent screamer.
Hope yers like it.
That's really awesome, Celtic. Kind of lyric that just.. Grabs your attention, I guess. Made me totally ignore everything else on the screen [Damn blipping MSN alerts ><].
But yeah, really great. I especially like:
"His blood it flows,
but then he knows,
he cannot die,
it's how this goes.
Conflict must die,
so death he defies,
makes another rush."
Great ^^. I always like your lyrics.
Whoa dude, awesome lyrics..much goody for the eyes. I love how brutal your themes are, fresh and original.
I loved this part though...
"And then he drops,
his life's been spent,
the sound of cops,
a bloody scent."
Keep it up man...
Woah! Celtic, I have not even finished reading the entire topic's worth of songs, and as I have said to Andromeda's story, I've only just read the first song/part and I already like it! I'm pretty amused by the fact that you still manage to put your infamous humour into them too. :P
Rock on!
...
Er...sing on...or...whatever...um...forget this section of the post ever existed. :roll:
You mean that about my miscellany thread, right? I hope you don't find any of these lyrics humorous, because non are meant to be... :lol:Quote:

I wan-ted more,

[Away, away, away...]
But who was I?
And why the change,
when I could've stayed,
qui-ite free.
Why then the ca-age?
Why was it my choice,
don't think I'll ever know...
A con-flict-ed past,
an un-easy peace,
so many paths,
no clear one though.
Stared out past the growth,
traps here and there,
some are complex,
but then most are small.
[Are small, are small, are small...]
When will they forget?
The time long past,
a time of chaos,
a time of youth.
I'm sorry I must say,
get over it,
the time has past,
just deal with it...
[just deal with it...]

Question
Logically insane,
questionally disturbed
dancing with fate,
but was it reserved?
Theory as sound,
as if unwound.
Logic a pox,
an eternal paradox.
Question what I do,
question what I say,
I wouldn't have it
any other way.
Question the facts,
what's been said.
Don't always buy
What's sold to your head.
Belief be damned,
it's faith that counts.
One with the thought,
right to some amounts.
Brilliance and insanity,
a very fine line.
Chaos and order,
either is fine.
Question what I do,
wonder what's true.
Question what I say,
Adapt it your way.
I wouldn't have it
any other way.
Question the facts,
what's been said.
Choose your illusion,
fight the confusion.
Don't always buy
What's sold to your head.
Woah man. Its good to see some new material that you have in this thread. I like your new one. It stands out to me then your previous ones that you have written. Something about it...but its really good. Awesome job. :)
There
As I live my waking day,
just thinking of what I'll say.
My mind...
my mind wanders off,
and I get distracted again.
And I wish that I were there,
to show you how much I care.
Wish I was there,
the distance I can barely bear.
I wish I was there,
I wish...
I WISH I WAS THERE
As I think back to what you said,
almost like my mind you've read.
My thoughts...
my thoughts spin off,
and my brain it crashes again.
And I want to be there,
showing how much I do care.
Want to be there,
the distance I can barely bear.
I want to be there,
I want...
I WANT TO BE THERE
As I get into my state of mind,
leaving obstacles floating behind.
My resolve...
My resolve flares up,
and I start going again.
And one day I'll be there,
showing you how much I care.
One day I'll be there,
the distance I will surely bear.
I'll be there....
I WILL BE THERE
Soul Crescendo
And I hear it,
and I feel it,
and I hear it,
ROARING OUT OF ME
[And then I,
I charge again.
And then I,
I charge again.]
And then the rhythm plays,
a rhythm of the mind,
the music plays,
THE MUSIC OF MY MIND
And I roll with it,
one with the tides,
and I roll with it,
THE MUSIC NEVER HIDES
And I,
And I,
AND I CHARGE AGAIN
[one with the tides],
AND I CHARGE AGAIN
[the music never hides]
AND I CHARGE AGAIN
[Cos I feel it deep within me,]
AND I CHARGE AGAIN
[And I hear it deep inside]
AND THE MUSIC PLAYS
[my reality distorts]
AND THE MUSIC PLAYS
[warping up my thoughts]
AND THE MUSIC PLAYS
[until it reaches the next song]
AND THE MUSIC PLAYS
[a sound that's never wrong]
[And then I,
I charge again.]
I REPLAY THE SONG
[And then I,
I charge again.]
I REPLAY THE SONG
And then the rhythm plays,
a rhythm of the mind,
the music plays,
THE MUSIC OF MY MIND
[The music of],
MUSIC OF MY MIND

As always, feel free to comment. This one I wrote in about an hour when I was supposed to be doing some course work. Whoopsies. >< :lol:
Bad, Nathan! Course work comes first! But other than that, it's pretty good. I picture some kind of metal tune in my mind when I read it.
Finally!!!! Finally!!!! FINALLY YOU BRING THIS BACK!!! Your lyrics are dope dude. I can never say one bad thing about them. I am with Ann on this one though. Not the "Bad Nathan!" thing but the fact that I could actually see it as a metal song. A little bit Fear Factory like in a way. I just could see it that way for some odd reason> The lyrics. I get this vibe of power from it. :shake:
Lose It
They talk,
but they don't hear,
they listen,
but they don't fear,
my rage,
it's written clear there,
**** OFF,
I'M NOT MEANT TO BE HERE
LOSE IT,
MY HEAD IS SHOT
LOSE IT,
MY BRAIN IS HOT
LOSE IT,
SANITY ROT,
LOSE IT,
MY MIND'S GONE,
BYYYEEEEE
They talk,
but they don't hear,
they listen,
but they don't fear,
my rage,
it's written clear there...
And, as I sit there,
[now,]
and, then she says,
[now,]
Will you be okay?
[now,]
Am I okay...
[now?]
NO, I'M NOT OKAY
[now...]
LOSE IT,
MY HEAD IS SHOT
LOSE IT,
MY BRAIN IS HOT
LOSE IT,
SANITY ROT,
LOSE IT,
MY MIND'S GONE,
BYYYEEEEE
Just a simple one I got in my head just recently. And it's a slow grunge song, so make sure to pronounce half the words slower with an extra syllable or two. :lol:
Rings of Steel
'Hey you',
asks the man.
The darkened man,
with the rings of steel.
'Yes what?'
Asks the guy,
the surf clothes guy,
with drugs in his coat.
'Did I'
asks the man,
'See you and that kid,
with that shit quite real?'
'So what?'
replies the guy,
'It's just a living,
and it's none of your concern.'
'Oh you',
smiles the man.
Punching the guy,
with his rings of steel.
Guy drops,
falling fast.
He grimaces hard,
But not hard enough.
'It's bad,
don'tcha know?
****ing up kids,
with that shit so real.'
'Know what?',
asks the man.
The darkened man,
with the rings of steel.
'No, what?'
Asks the guy,
clutching his gut,
and spluttering quite bad.
'Stay away',
says the man.
The darkened man,
with the rings of steel.
Man turns,
then walks away.
The darkened man,
with the rings of steel,
the darkened man,
with his rings of steel...
:lol: I don't know if I read it right but it flowed pretty damn well. Not to mention this would make a catchy song I would like to hear in the radio. Lyrics would be easy to remember as well. Awesome work.
Hmm, with his rings of steel.. is that you? Lol. It was lovely, Nathan , as always ^^.
