Empty Junkies Dream

Empty Junkies Dream

(verse 1)

All your dreams are the same

When your sitting with a needle, spoon

And a razor blade

You cook up fill that needle

With your faverioute tune

Puncture your skin

As you feel your life wearing thin

It happens to be just another

Empty Junkies Dream

You needed a little time too shake up

Instead the addiction took you way too soon

All your friends didn't notice you

Until it was past the point of being an empty dream

All your friends didn't notice you at all

(chorus)

You needed a little time to shake up

Wake up

Needed a little time jusn to get your life in gear

Needed a little time to shake up and wake up

Get your mind right

And out of this Empty Junkies Dream

Needed a little time to shake up

Wake up

Needed a little time just to get your life in gear

Shake up

Needle and a spoon

Rusty razor blade gone to soon

(verse 2)

Today's the day all the drugs did seem

A little to much for you just to lye and dream

Couldn't slip by

Just like an Empty Junkies Dream

It was one fine Sunday afternoon

With a needle a spoon and a razor blade

You lye face down

Something has taken you far too soon

Listing to the sound of your faverouite tune

Sitting with a needle a spoon and a razor blade

Tommorrow will soon know

Yestarday took you far to soon

(chorus)

You lived your life just like an Empty Junkies Dream

Gone to soon

As you stuck one more needle into your vain

Slit your wrists with a razor blade

The years of drug abuse took you too soon

Life is meant to be a dream

Women and a home, dream job doiwn the line

Empty Junkiues dream took you too soon

(chorus)

You just couldn't find anything

To get your mind body or soul to shake up

Wake up

Empty Junkies Dream was all that was left of you

All your friends didn't even reconize

Who there good friend used to be

Took a little time to cook up, not shake up

Took a little time to cook up one last time

All your friends didn't even notice you were gone

Far too soon

Todays the day all the people will scream

Empty Junkies Dream

Slip by

You were an Empty Junkies Dream

Tommorrow now knows

Yestarday took you to soon

Empty Junkies Dream

Music? Till then ...

"I'll be in my basement room

With a needle

And a spoon.

And another girl

To take my pain away."

Rolling Stones, Dead Flowers

Or John Frusciante sweating heavily

Well... it's never too late to start, Mat!

And, of course, these days, you don't actually have to play anything in order to create music. Between loops and arrangement generators, even non-instrumentalists can, with a good ear, create good sounding music to support their singing/songwriting.

But simply posting your lyrics here is fine, too.

In fact, if you're interested in collaborating with musicians/composers, you might even put that in your posts (or your signature line). Just as there are lyricists who don't play or hardly play instruments, there are many fine musicians who run into a blank wall when it comes to words... As we used to say in the singles bars, there's someone for everyone. (Well, except for me in the bars, anyhow. I was much better at meeting girls on the quad at the university. What's your major? sprang more readily to my lips than, Hey, baby, I'll bet you're a Virgo!)

Well am 22 at the moment 23 at the end of the year (December. So yeah it would def not be too late to start learning guitar or some instrument.

I've got a pretty good voice for singing (nothing special) and I like to think I have a good ear for music but I wouldn't know where to start with the electric stuff. It's not really my style anyway. If you use to much electric sounds etc in music it then becomes to sound very "canned" and meningless. Wiyj no sou or energy put into the music. l I would like to get a "proper" (heavy metal/phsicodelioc) band togther full of proper musicans. This is how you breath life into music. That is why music today is not as good as it once was all canned and put on. It's the electric music which is used far to much in modern day music. It just trying to find the right people where I stay (no one really intrested in playing around here). Who can sing/play like they mean it with a lot of energy.

I enjoy posting my lyrics on here and getting feedback (even athough sometimes not much feedback but that's fine) as I have never shown my lyrics to anyone bar close family and a few friends. My Mums friends are in a band (but stay at other side of country) so requested me to send a few of my lyrics down to them so I emailed them 3 just waiting for feedback so maybe getting somethin organised there. Also emailed someone from this site a few of my lyrics just wating for word from him and I've sent a P.M to someone else (on the lyrics to Living Right Intoi Hell) see if he gets back to me.

Yeah I would be highly intrested in working with anyone who plays basically I would like to hear at least one or two of my lyrics put togther with some music so yeah I'll put that in my sig

Thanks for the feedback

Mat
