Crows at War *my band* lyrics

Sorry it took awhile for me to make this thread, but I was catching up on some of the others.

Lyrics for: "If Our Lives Meant Everything"

If we ever knew the past, what would it mean?
Did I lose myself in yesterday?
My memory seems to be fading
But it seems we die in a path of glory

Cold feelings killing my insides
Death behind the door of insanity
Dare to open it
I wouldn't mind

This is what it'd be like
If our lives meant everything
We'd be lost so far beyond
That is... If our lives meant everything

But does anything mean anything?
That we do not know
Losing my mind is all I have ever known
I keep letting go of things I've never understood

I try to keep up on things
But I cannot
I seem to fall everytime
I die everyday, therefore our lives mean nothing

But if our lives meant everything
Would we wait for tomorrow?
Or would we hold onto the past?
The future looks black

Death is in my way, and therefore, I cannot see anything.
I'm blinded by the light
The coldness creeps behind me
And I feel you

But if our lives were lost
We wouldn't mean a goddamn thing
Our lives mean everything here and now
Is this really what you wanted...

Because this is how it is
If our lives meant everything
We'd die in the run for a better us
And we know... Our lives mean everything here and now

Lyrics for: "State of Mind"

All I know...
Is that I know nothing
Keep it down for I'm losing myself
Why am I here?

I'm in a place where no one can bother me
I'm in my own state of mind
And you should be in yours
But you don't mind, and you don't care

You lose something valuable
And it's like your whole world has crumbled
Just go to your state of mind
And you know you'll live on

I love things I couldn't ever feel for
I hate things I could love more
But I don't care, just like you
I love you, but why throw things around?

I'm in a state of mind
I stare into myself and see a black hole
I cover it with feelings and change it
But it just sucks up everything

But feelings don't really matter
I've lost everything I've ever cared for
But I still live on
And I can always go to my state of mind

 

[DeadWinterDead]

Lyrics for: "We Live For Today"

Put yourself in your seat
Listen to what I've got to say
Why even bother?
I know you never listen

I kept myself dead inside
I had things locked up
When we departed
Not a tear left your eye

I want to know why not?
We live for today
'Cause yesterday was nothing
We can't go back, and we can't go forward

We lose our pride
But we never lose our senses
We had things you never did
Problems I never could fix

We live for today
We live for today
'Cause yesterday was nothing
We can't go back, and we can't go forward

I've only been here for awhile
We've always been there for each other
Why are things different now?
Leave me in a pile of disgrace

I look into your eye and I see nothing
No truth
No love
No care

I can't do anything, but turn away
It's such a shocking feeling
To know that the person you love...
Has never given anything to you

So I live for today
As do my friends
So we live for today
We live for... Today

Lyrics for: "Death of My Emptiness"

This time it will not pass
I'll just have to tell you how it is
If you don't hear this
You'll always be empty

I killed myself
And left my parts on the floor
I am on fire
But you are oh so cold

I have fulfilled my life
This is the death of my emptiness
I'll let it all out
And explain everything

Keep your heart
Don't let it go
Never give it to someone
They'll always hurt you

Us... It was never meant to me
You... Kept everything away
I turned down death
And I left it all there

Death of my emptiness
I wipe the tears from your eyes
'Cause I know you didn't want this to happen
You wanted me to die

Everything is going to be all right
Because it ends here
This is the death of my emptiness
And I have laid down on my bed

It has only begun...

 

[DeadWinterDead]

That's all I'm gonna post for now, but I'll post the rest later when I feel like it!

 

[FatherVic]

nice stuff....
you have something recorded at the moment?????

 

[DeadWinterDead]

We're trying to get it on the internet. But not yet. Hopefully soon. I have a doubt that we will anytime soon. But we're planning a tour for the whole summer. Which probably won't happen since we're all broke.

 

[Fjelltussa]

The one making these lyrics are really clever - they are great!! I'd very much like to hear the music as well, so keep up the work and get in online!

 

[Lutz]

Not bad

 

[Blackspirit]

Ah! A Whole thread filled with lyrics!
Thanks DeadWinterDead ))

I'll read through them later on, right
now I HAVE to get some food or I'll
pass out. Work kills me >P Hehe...

 

[HellSpawn]

good lyrics there, u made any of them, or someone else in your band made this ones too?

hmm maybe I should listen to Blackspirit and post my lyrics too

 

[DeadWinterDead]

Someone else did... I write some poems, and if you want to check them out. Go to http://www.expage.com/ilovewhitneyroberts ... After that, click on the link that says "poems" and that's where most of mine are. I haven't updated lately, but maybe I'll get around to that.

Oh, and also... THIS IS MY 200th POST!!!!!

 

[DeadWinterDead]

I want to make sure this stays closer to the top. 'Cause I want more opinions about the lyrics.

 

[Blackspirit]

Out of those lyrics I like "Death of My Emptiness" the best! )
It reminded me a bit of Embraced's "The End And Here We All
Die"... I can also relate to the emptiness thing.... so...
Well, me likes, the whole thing! )

This part from "State Of Mind" I love!! -->

"I'm in a state of mind
I stare into myself and see a black hole
I cover it with feelings and change it"

The black hole that you're covering with feelings...
WOW! But, it's contradicting itself when he has written -->
"I don't have feelings, nor do you" afterwards....

"Death behind the door of insanity
Dare to open it "

Yumme! )

 

[DeadWinterDead]

Thanks for letting me know Blackspirit. I'll get some more lyrics to you once Patrick sends them. I swear he takes forever!

 

[Blackspirit]

Well, my views on his lyrics might not be too much,
and maybe they don't matter much to you, but I
just felt like writing what they meant to me, and
express my opinion ) More please?

Tell that Patrick guy that there's a fan eagerly
waiting for his poems at the um, that might speed
him up a bit >P

 

[Fjelltussa]

Why don't smb make a thread where everyone can post their lyrics and poems, or just lyrics/poems they like? That would have been nice

@HellSpawn: Do post your lyrics! Wanna see them!

@DWD: Tell Patrrick from me to, that he needs to send more lyrics soon! *eagerly waiting for more lyrics*
