The title's a bit of a joke, I cant help but hold waaaay too much disdain for James Franco. Especially after Spiderman. These are lyrics to the last song the last band I was in wrote. I wrote the lyrics, except for parts of the 3rd verse and the "we all hoped" part. Thoughts?
I am stuck in this room with a mirror, and a sign that says look at yourself.
I was loved oh I swear I was loved once, but now i'm surrounded by people
who talk about hate.
Don't tell me what to care about.
Look through the glass at the people just floating
Their arms and their legs both connect, to their torso's they tremble in need of a fix
so tell them you love them, that you wish they would quit, that you wish they would live.
Don't tell them what to care about.
Rest assured, I never wanted it this way. Why did I keep you so close?
So we both separate, but we cross the same pathways.
So I'll shake your hand yeah I'll tell you I'm doing just fine.
Don't tell me what to care about, don't tell me.
We were the future retold by those stuck in the past
We watched you princes you fools turn to liars
And we fought though we knew that we couldn't do anything
You used to be so much, you used to be so much better before
You used to be so much, you used to be so much brighter.
Don't tell me what to care about, don't tell me.
Do you remember the way that it was before?
We used to have so much love for each other,
The midsections for reminiscing he said to me.
So start the machine with the reel-to-reel tapes,
We were so lively together.
We'll start forgetting each others first names,
The midsections for reminiscing he said to me.
When the lights come pack on
I pray for recollection
the pills in his hands fall so gently into yours
You swallow them whole and fall from our protection
Yeah the midsections for reminiscing
We spent our whole lifes holding something we wanted
A complete focused future is now coming closer
Your stomach feels empty you just need an exit
Pull yourself together there's a better way to solve this
This friendships been ruined, has now become nothing
The past present future it wasn't worth wasting
Words you won't speak/It's my last chance to save you
Hold back your head/And release all the pressure
We all hoped for a time we'd make our parents proud
Exit yourself and put the pills in your mouth
Once was alive is just a face in the crowd
Your minds full up with guilt the truth won't wash out
I'm losing all my friends to drugs
And I guess it's worse to care
Then to let them all get sunk
So go on float higher and higher
Into the clouds
I'll sit here waiting at the bottom
And pray you come back down
We were the kings, we were the kings
We'll keep you safe stay awake we'll bring medicine
...Yeah it's a long song haha we were going through alot with different family and friends at the time, and this was our venting process.
