Sometimes, I feel the pain of Dishonesty Like icy rain And I can’t wait Til I am free Of all this endless pain Of these red blood stains. It’s tearing me apart And it seems I’m falling down Down into the clay But lately I Am starting to realize That they can’t kick me down. Whatever they throw at me I’ll stand tall I won’t let them kick me down..no.. Whatever they throw at me I’ll stand tall… I’ll stand tall… So if I Decide its time to go Use my chance to take The dive Will I Choose to take the plunge And find I’m still alive? It’s tearing me apart And it seems it’s meant to be That everyone else’ll be alright But lately I’m Starting to realize That it’s time to stand and fight. Whatever they throw at me I’ll stand tall… I won’t let them kick me down...no Whatever they throw at me, I’ll stand tall… I’ll stand tall… Would you choose to stand and fight, Wait for a chance to strike? Whatver they throw at me I’ll stand tall I won’t let them kick me down…no Whatever they throw at me I’ll stand tall… I’ll stand tall… I’ll stand tall… I’ll stand tall… ------------------------------------------- Turned out pretty good, no? It isn't perfect..and a little too close to the actual song, but I still think it turned out all right. Someone on here did an adaptation of a Linkin Park song (sorry I can't remember your name, cool person >_<), and it inspired me to do this one. -Kosetsu "Love, like the Rose, is desired. And like the Rose, Love has its thorns." - Unknown |

Adam ~ This was good. You could try to change it just a little though, make it sound MORE original. But don't change it too much!!   Love ya, hon! What don't kill you can only make you stronger... |

 That was me!! Haha, no really, at least the one to "Place for My Head" This was great! I love it. It's not too close to the song either. Good job!  Bel |

This was written nicely! I enjoyed it a lot!  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

Very strong words, and a powerful message, Adam. I Really enjoyed this.. especially the repitition. Worked very nicely with what was going on. Nicely done! --Marie You think yourself a failure, but perhaps the biggest loss is winning. |
