July

[ArTkY_]

I am two months behind... but here we go with July. This one is kinda on time. June is written, but needs editing and May is just the shittiest thing I've ever written so its been scrapped and will be rewritten. Here goes:

Summer
you are now...
I've missed you...
I needed you but
we've both changed!
(Admit it!)
You're lying again wtih your
"Its not me its you!"

I'll swear my oath of fealty to you tonight....
This is here, this is now, baby, don't lie
There's no us, there's just me, so goodbye

We are the champions of this small corner of the world
bow down to our prowess, Maximus
strangers will beg blessings
as we're passing through the streets
we've learned so much about ourselves
in just one month's time
we've earned passing fancies
and wasted time
all the same....
I feel whole

Honestly, you promised me tonight would be different
It'll be over soon when I find you huddled up in pain on the stage
This is the best goodbye of my short life
I've realized that I live a fucking outstanding lie
(but i couldn't stand the drama at kitchen tables and fancy restraunts)

These are our lives
weddings, goodbyes, and lost time

Fin.

haha, I like this a lot for some reason. The last month was so hectic.

I love how my whole year is out of order.

But thanks... to both of you.

I like these lines a lot. It makes for a real strong closing.

and I have to commend you on teaching me a new word today: "fealty," I hadn't come across that before.

Doesn't it always seem like the best ideas you have floating around your head never transfer into words the way you want them, too? I hate that... and have far too many 1-2 liners sitting around on scraps of paper. They usually end up coming together a year or so later...

I like this alot. Especially the last two lines and the "outstanding lie" bit.

It's solid, good stuff.

Thanks a lot man.

haha, you're welcome. I usually use better diction in most of my songs, this is weaker in that sense. But I enjoy this song. I've had my own song stuck in my head for a while.

YES! Oh my. I hate that feeling. I have a few greeaaat lines for May, but I just can't finish it!

Thanks a lot. If you've noticed, that's been in my AIM profile for a while, haha. Its been in this song forever.
