a heart for a hand grenade

[Boring Pop Song]

the music died at dawn that day
and everything was silent
everything had seemed to me
like an old black and white movie
the streets, they cracked like callous hands
the clouds felt so much closer
I watched the daisies crawl into the soil

I picked up my guitar
but all the strings had broken
if I could use these veins of mine I would
I tried to sing a melody
and choked on every note
every single phrase stuck in my lungs

the music died at dawn that day
the church choir sounded like a hospital
angels may have lost their wings
but I had lost it all
the city felt just like a ghost town
but the people that I saw were walking
slowly with their heads down

I went to strike the drums
but I couldn’t hear a rhythm
I even think my heartbeat might’ve died
died just like the music had at dawn

thanks so much, seriously.

[xChasingsafetyx]

Fantastic. There, i just summed up the entire song.

[so_far_gone]

that was really good...i'm really impressed

[LiesWithinUs]

I really like it, but the last line in the last stanza doesn't seem to end the piece as strong as I would have hoped. But if you're using the first and third lines, that will sound really great. Nice work.

[OveriseFan]

Wow, really impressed.

The lines : "angels may have lost their wings
but I had lost it all"

Were really clever.

I enjoyed it, though I felt American Pie(the song) as I read it...

[Boring Pop Song]

yeah. the actual song doesn't sound like american pie. i can't wait to get this album recorded

[Boring Pop Song]
