      AmazeO's Covers and Original Songs (Ripe for the Viewing!)

      So, I've gotten mainly positive responses regarding the covers and original songs I have been posting on Youtube, from people at DV and numerous other people.

      Thought I'd start an actual thread, and I'll update whenever I add a new song. For now, I'll post the two covers and two originals I have up, including their lyrics.

      Please, constructive comments only. No pointless flaming. Not that I take offense to it, but it's unneeded.

      COVERS


      Jonny Craig
      Children of Divorce


      And back to these cold shitty days in Portland,
      Wishing I'd never come across your face,
      Laying by the memories of things unspoken,
      Scared by thoughts of your father,
      Made me look over the flaws of your nature.
      Laying on your back became your only escape.
      You feel so old, used, but not yet broken,
      Not to think you have it all together.
      I never planned to carry your burdens.
      But this child was a mistake.

      I knew from the moment I stepped off that plane,
      We had no future.
      How come your dreams are always so bitter?
      And who knows,
      Maybe one day,
      She will know my name.

      You still return to the same skylines,
      That leave you broken.
      Cheap talks with even cheaper company.
      Keeps the days turning into nights.
      You lay awake crying cause your child,
      Carries my name,
      While I regret ever making you apart of my life.
      Sadly enough,
      This song's not to hurt you,
      Just to show the world that I'm free.

      I knew from the moment I stepped off that plane,
      We had no future.
      How come your dreams are always so bitter?.
      And who knows,
      Maybe one day,
      She will know my name.
      She will know.
      She will know.



      Dallas Green (City and Colour)
      The Girl


      I wish I could do better by you,
      Cause its what you deserve.
      You sacrifice so much of your life,
      In order for this to work.

      While I'm off chasing my own dreams,
      Sailing around the world,
      Please know that I'm yours to keep,
      My beautiful girl.

      When you cry a piece of my heart dies,
      Knowing that I may have been the cause,
      If you were to leave, fulfil someone else's dreams,
      I think I might totally be lost.

      You don't ask for no diamond rings,
      No delicate string of pearls,
      That's why I wrote this song to sing,
      My beautiful girl.



      ORIGINALS

      Thank You, I Appreciate Dishonesty.


      Ironic that I find you,
      in the same gutter as before.
      When my helping hand,
      you chose to ignore.
      It's so satisfying,
      to see your heart broken in two,
      but still you never seem,
      to take a clue.
      Don't look at me for sympathy,
      I will not help you repeat your fears,
      It was your fault this time,
      So clean up your own tears.

      You look to me in times of need,
      but ignore me when you're fine.
      You turned your back on me,
      so now you get my spine.
      Try and repent,
      exercise remorse.
      But inside your heart,
      you're only making it worse.
      How is it my fault,
      that I only seem to laugh when you cry?
      No, I appreciate you giving us a try.
      Thanks for the chance,
      and for the modesty.
      Thanks for the dance,
      I appreciate dishonesty.

      Ironic that I find you,
      in the same trash can as before.
      When my loving arms,
      you chose to ignore.
      It's so damn satisfying,
      to see you weep.
      No, take back your sadness.
      It's yours to keep.
      Don't look at me for pity.
      I will not help you repeat your faults.
      This is why my compassion ends.
      This is where it halts.

      You look to me in times of need,
      but ignore me when you're fine.
      You turned your back on me,
      so now you get my spine.
      Try and repent,
      exercise remorse.
      But inside your heart,
      you're only making it worse.
      How is it my fault,
      that I only seem to laugh when you cry?
      No, I appreciate you giving us a try.
      Thanks for the chance,
      and for the modesty.
      Thanks for the dance,
      I appreciate dishonesty.



      [This is the only song with explicit lyrics]
      With Intent!


      And I'll fall here again
      I thought you were my friend
      but dont lie or pretend
      you hurt me with intent.
      and the rain that washes through,
      might make us start a new,
      but the sky is ever blue,
      so for now I'll forget you.

      lies are what I feed my heart,
      so you were perfect from the start.
      and fill my ship up with your guilt,
      so the bow will start to tilt,
      and my can drowning can begin,
      and it will wash away your sin.
      lies are what I feed my heart,
      so you were perfect from the start.

      and the more that I try to avoid,
      the more I seem to notice the void.
      and the less I try to spend,
      will justify me for the end.
      and the sea that rocks me back,
      will bring me right back on track,
      I will steal glances towards your eyes,
      I'm just a petty thief of your lies.

      Lies are what I feed my heart,
      So you were perfect from the start.
      and fill my ship up with your guilt,
      so the bow will start to tilt.
      fill the water to my throat,
      so I won't have breath the gloat.
      lies are what I feed my heart,
      which made you perfect from the start.
      and fill my head up with mistake,
      Because I know you're fake.
      so my healing can begin,
      and think of what we could've been.
      the horizon meets the sun,
      sorry, but I've already moved on.

      So enough with your pet names,
      Just call me an arsonist.
      Cause I love, to burn bridges.
      And fuck what I've got coming,
      cause it's already,
      in the past.
      And enough with your bargains,
      Just call me an athiest,
      cause I love to disbelieve.
      And fuck what you're sending my way,
      cause it's already been,
      sent right back.
      You do this every fucking time.
      No sweat.
      No tears.
      No guilt.
      You do this every fucking time.

      You have a pretty punkish voice. You can play guitar well and can write guitar well too. But I am not sure about the way you write lyrics, and the melody you sing them too. I feel like the lyrics are alittle cheezy, but I know how hard it is to write non-cheesy lyrics. Keep working, you'll find a system that works.

      Also, get yourself a drummer and keyboard player. Sweet band name, btw.

      By far, Mothra (in all of it's forms) is the worst kaiju of all time.

      Haha, thanks I guess. I've been writing since I was young, only been playing guitar for about 5 months. This is just a hobby for me. My little acoustic side thing. Me and a few friends just started a band. Consisting of keys and drums and guitar.

      This is a thread I will keep myself posted to. You may have already stated it in the intro, I'm not sure, but who do you sound like and who were you inspired by?

      Hey, take a look at the myspace again. I re-recorded the song "Three Long Years" at my friend's recording studio. Although it's not mastered and has been barely edited, it's better then what I had before.

      Oh, and to answer you RIAD. Uhm, who do I sound like..hm. I have a high voice, but not as high as someone like Anthony Green or something. I don't know, hard to compare my own voice to someone else. And I'm not inspired by anyone in particular, just a whole shitload of music I've listened to. If I had to pick any people in particular that I like and may have some sort of effect on my music, I'd say Jonny Craig, Dallas Green, and other acoustic artists.

      I don't particularly like this kind of music, however I can certainly recognise that you're good at what you are doing, and I encourage you to keep going.
