Time Goes By
As I walk down
The light-flickering streets
I go to a place
Where my heart and mind meet
Causing conflict in my head
It’s so hard to fight back
I wish I was back in bed
I guess a little sleep
Is all I lack
Too late to count sheep
I’m already far too gone
I’m in way too deep
A shadow behind me
As I pass a lamp post
The light goes out
Then out comes a ghost
A vision of my past
Born out of darkness
With whiskey from the shelf
I’m still haunted
By all the past events
Everyone’s got a future
While I’m still on the fence
Now everything’s a blur
And all I’m doing
Is watching the birds fly
And walking through life
As time goes by
(x2)
All suited up
But no place to go
It’s like my life
Has always been
This is all I’ve ever known
Pain and Defeat
Lies and Deceit
Rinse then Repeat
And all I’m doing
Is watching the birds fly
And walking through life
As time goes by
(x2)
So now I stand alone
In the spotlight
It’s really hard to see
‘Cause it’s so bright
Then a voice whispers
“It’ll be alright”
And all I’m doing
Is watching the birds fly
And walking through life
As time goes by
(x2)
Honestly I don’t think this is my best work. It was written over a few days and it’s just a mixture of random ideas put together into some lyrical form. No this has nothing to do with anything going on in my life so please don’t start worrying about me, I am fine. Now, I know I haven’t posted in a while and with so much going on I’m not sure I’ll be able to continue much anymore and I’m not sure whether I should even keep up with this lyricist gig because I don’t get much feedback on what I write and I don’t even know if you guys read what I write. Please provide some form of feedback whether it is positive or negative so I can determine whether to continue using my spare time to write lyrics. Thank you.
Montreal Student Protests
Okay so for those of you that don’t know, there are protests going on all over montreal because the tuition prices are going up for university. $1500 over 7 years…Honestly Quebec would still have the LOWEST TUITION RATE IN NORTH A-FUCKING MERICA at $4000. And now, people are raiding the streets and causing PUBLIC HARM to many people and and the town itself. Now this has been going on for OVER 100 DAYS. The 100th day was celebrated with, yes you guessed it, ANOTHER PROTEST. I paid very careful attention to the news broadcasts that day and what the government was saying about what was going to happen and what should be done and here’s what I’ve discovered…It is no longer about the raise in tuition rates, it is now about causing trouble and overthrowing the government just to truly get what they want in the end. The leader of the separatists of Quebec who in my opinion are the biggest group of bitches in the world (including all the men) has decided to side with these protestors but it’s not because she believes that the tuition should stay low or go to the extreme and have education become free, but it’s because, hey, theres a fucking election in a few months, and guess who wants to get power in quebec, those mother fucking goddamn separatist bitches. It’s now about political power and causing trouble, but guess what. All they are doing is destroying the economy of montreal and ruining their own future, because the law has been passed, the bill will be signed and tuition will go up. GROW THE FUCK UP, instead of protesting, go get a job and make money to pay for for your tuition, because ive worked 1 month this summer and made enough to pay the raise in tuition alone so imagine what the protestors could do if they just shut the fuck up! Now that they are moving in onto the towns closer to where i live…it’s really pissing me off because action will be taken and if the police don’t get properly involved, there will be an all out civil war and before you know it, people will end up dying. These protestors say they want to “negotiate” but they will go for the jugular and only go for what they want which is free education. These protestors are ruining all of Montreal and have turned Quebec into a black stain on the world. I hope they are proud of themselves because their future will be nothing if this continues.
Finished new lyrics, posting them on here soon.
