this is a song lyric I wrote several years ago, and I added 2 verses on 9-12. You will figure out which ones... Outside Its hard to face the deamons when they're all outside your head In a world that doesn't care if you're alive or dead you struggle every day for some reason to live in such a god forsaken place its so hard to forgive the spinning wheel of evil is out of control media's feeding frenzy on misery's lost souls children disappear from their homes without a trace milk cartons carry messages that say have you seen this face? (chorus) Its everywhere beside you theres nowhere left to hide its even in the air we breathe so we can't go outside for fear the plague will choose us to be its next of pray please please tell me i can go outside today Streetlights are still shining on tonight's most recent star who just got shot down gangland style by a rivals passing car the victims are the innocent some still have not lost trust know its unsafe to walk the street but live there cause they must what caused us to have blind faith in the world on which we dwell and turn our backs indifferently to our children's future hell this worlds a freakshow circus drawing lifeblood from our pain we've got to go outside or lose our young minds to its drain Terrorists took our airplanes and flew them in the towers they killed our family and friends to revenge a rich coward does wealth and power have to rule the souls of all the land and make war the only choice left to make the final stand So tell us to be quiet and to sit back and relax because we really do require getting all the facts as we strongly consider what we're about to do payback really is a (edit) when its all done and through Its everywhere beside you theres nowhere left to hide its even in the air we breathe so we can't go outside for fear the plague will choose us to be its next of prey please please tell me i can go outside please please tell me i can go outside please please tell me i can go outside today (Kenna P. - (C)1998-2001) run around the world lookin for what keep on lookin for what you aint got [This message has been edited by songstress51 (edited 09-18-2001).] |

I really enjoyed the lyrics you've created. The additions of the two stanzas really added to the mood I think. Kudos! I'd love to hear the music with it. -Pip You can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep. -- Navajo Proverb |

Kenna, I can hear your beautiful voice singing this one, and it touches me! It seems of late that there is no outside to run to anymore, but we long to escape into the breezes of peace. My friend, this is superb! The road goes on forever, and the stories never end... |
