Pandora's box :)

There is a box,
where all my secrets lie
I've locked them up,
they're all safe inside.
No-one knows
in the box I confide.
to stop anyone knowing,
the reality of life.

Each night I add a secret,
then lock it with a key,
so that everything saved in it
is known only by me.


Chorus:
And I am a girl
with so many secrets to tell.
but no-one can know,
it's not something I show.
They're my secrets
they belong to no-one else.
Only the  box
can know me that well.

I hide away the key
it's safe in my heart.
Only ever used by me,
with the key I couldn't part.
Maybe one day
I shall lend it to someone else,
if they earn my trust
and confide in myself.


chorus: 

And I am a girl

with so many secrets to tell.

but no-one can know,

it's not something I show.

They're my secrets

they belong to no-one else.

Only the  box

can know me that well.

ask me to stay :)

I'm trying to forget
all the words that you said,
they're going round in my head,
filling me with so much dread.
When can I see you,
to tell you how I feel?
the past is all memories,
it no longer feels real.

Chorus:
I'm hoping for one more day,
wanting only to hear you say
that you need me...
please, ask me to stay.
I'm hoping for one more day,
I can't wish you away
I need you to tell me,
please, ask me to stay.

Life is full of little things
that make living so sweet.
That make my heart beat
and which keeps me on my feet.
One word from you
can help me stay strong,
but please, don't leave it.
I can't wait around too long.

Chorus:

I'm hoping for one more day,
wanting only to hear you say
that you need me...
please, ask me to stay.
I'm hoping for one more day,
I can't wish you away
I need you to tell me,
please, ask me to stay.

Love and peace

Have you ever seen
the way people cry,
the way people scream,
smoke filling the sky.
Have you ever seen?
Their faces on TV,
the horrors they know,
nightmares, not dreams.

Bridge:
It's always the same
when you turn on the news,
a real war game,
never-ending disputes.

Chorus:
There's a little thing called love
some have never even heard of.
It doesn't stop the pain,
from happening again.
There's a little thing called peace,
only known by diseased.
It doesn't stop the pain,
from happening again.


Have you ever cried
when you heard about,
how many died
in Afghanistan.
How many lost
more than their pride,
how much it cost
for not making up minds.

Bridge:

It's always the same
when you turn on the news,
a real war game,
never-ending disputes.

Chorus:

There's a little thing called love
some have never even heard of.
It doesn't stop the pain,
from happening again.
There's a little thing called peace,
only known by diseased.
It doesn't stop the pain,
from happening again.

I swear there is no other :)

I swear there is no other.
I don't care about money,
money doesn't make
a normal guy funny,
all it does is take.
I don't care about looks,
beauty shines out.
I don't want what girls want in books
'Cos that's not what it's all about.

Bridge:
There's just one thing
I'm drawn to.
And that one thing
is you.

Chorus:
Your words are my Armour,

your touch is my shield,
I swear there is no other,
who makes me feel...
the way you make me feel.


I don't care about about those people,
or what they will say.
They don't care about feelings,
they just wanna ruin each day.
I don't care about distance,
I can always hold on.
I would for instance,
be sad if you were gone.

Bridge:

There's jsut one thing
I'm drawn to.
And that one thing
is you.

Chorus:
Your words are my Armour,
your touch is my shield,
I swear there is no other,
who makes me feel...
the way you make me feel.

Some of my cartoons :) x

Rap 1-Not fair

Our life has changed,                            
this world;
has reached a stage,
societies so full of rage,
won't turn a page;
it's hurtful.
To watch the days,        
it's like an animal
been locked in a cage;
it's a huge mistake,
is it just a phase?
To see kids so young,
think that having fun,
mean's to smoke a bong,
it's all so wrong.
To them it's the bomb;
they can't get along.
Un-respectful;
think this makes them strong.
When i was six,
i hear a rap song,
not knowing what it meant,
but innocence is gone.


Chorus:
Trying to keep away,
fighting off fears that come your way,
the words filled with horrors every day,
and it's not fair (no.not fair)

It's really bad,
the kids;
who call me mad.
Experiences they've had,
it's pretty sad,
to see them
instead of feeling glad,
having no education;
some can't even add.
Boy's call each other lad,
broken homes, no mum or dad.
A girl talks of guys,
she's only five!
A group of boys fight;
kids always tell lies,
nowadays don't deny,
they shouldn't cry;
over broken hearts.
Their tears should dry.
And nowadays,
they must always be right,
they argue, never wrong,
how can that be alright?


Chorus

It's so typical,
to think
you see faces so miserable;
it's unthinkable,
almost unbarable.
To know
that kids are capable
of almost anything;
it's incredible,
at times even fear-able,
the future's worth thinking for.
Put on hold,
that when they crawl
is innocence,
then who could know,
a downward fall?
I need a paracetamol.

You'll be alright :)

She's not scared of anything,
she's on quicksand, but she can't sink.
Her world's stood still, but she's moving,
it's hard to breath and it's hard to think.

and all she knows (all she knows)
is she's all alone.

She is lost and has no home,
she's been picked up and she's been thrown,
no one's near who she can phone,
and all she knows (all she knows)
Is she's all alone.


Chorus:
Don't cry, dry your eyes.
your stronger than this inside...
Don't feel the need to run and hide.
You have yourself
and you'll be alright.


Her world calls her, and she knows it,
she's so small, and it's so big.
All around her are words of forbid,
she's left too much she's gonna miss.

And all she knows (all she knows)
is she's all alone.

Yet all along she has known,
it's not so bad when you're on your own,
and she will see when she has grown,
but all she knows (all she knows)
is she's all alone.


Chorus:

Don't cry, dry your eyes.
your stronger than this inside...
Don't feel the need to run and hide.
You have yourself
and you'll be alright.

Live it! :)

Clocks keep a track of time,
they tick away the seconds,
hours go when they chime.
People waste every second,
with who, what, where, when and why?
And, if I am not mistaken,
allowing time to fly.


Bridge:
I believe in not letting a single day pass,
without making every second last.

Chorus:
Live every year not worrying about a single thing,
live every month not even knowing what a day could bring.
Live every week without the plans, just living for the day,
live every day without the rules, no matter what they say.
Live every hour partying, don't watch the time go past.
Every minute should be fun, 'cos it does go by so fast.
And I believe you should live every second...
...almost as if it's your last.


So dance every beat, sing every song.
The worries will cease,
it wont take too long.
I believe love and peace
will soon be along.
If we can all believe
time has been used wrong.


Bridge:

I believe in not letting a single day pass,
without making every second last.

Chorus:

Live every year not worrying about a single thing,
live every month not even knowing what a day could bring.
Live every week without the plans, just living for the day,
live every day without the rules, no matter what they say.
Live every hour partying, don't watch the time go past.
Every minute should be fun, 'cos it does go by so fast.
And I believe you should live every second...
...almost as if it's your last.

Hamlet

She is a young girl,
so lost in her own world.
She's fallen for the one,
who plays girls hearts for fun.
Though this much she can't see,
in rejection she can't believe.

She only wants him,
but his mind is elsewhere.
He prefers to make it seem
like he doesn't care.


Chorus:
Hamlet, why must you be so cruel?
Letting this girl believe you're really worth it all.
She is a girl in love,
she can't show you enough,
you rise her up, then let her fall.


She begins once again,
although she's always in pain.
Others may love her,
but she can't feel the same.
Then he must return,
he mocks when her heart burns,
she can't take another day,
she wishes it all away.
The tragic story ends,
with neither making amends.
Her brother had her warned,
only after she was torn.

(Spoken. A quote from the play)
Fear it Ophelia, my dear sister,
and keep you in the rear of your affection
out of the shot and danger of desire.

Chorus:

Hamlet, why must you be so cruel?
Letting this girl believe you're really worth it all.
She is a girl in love,
she can't show you enough,
you rise her up, then let her fall.

Tonight we sing for you

Everyone is different,
every single girl or guy,
sometimes one is distant,
sometimes we can all be shy.
sometimes we're all insistent,
and we give no reason why...
emotions non-existent,
if we're happy we may cry.

The point is we're all unique,
no matter what people may say,
so get up and dance to the beat,
and let's listen to the band play.

Chorus:
Singin' hey ho!
And away we go!
Tonight we sing for you,
and everything you do.
Don't let anybody give you rules,
'cos tonight we're all singin' for you!

That smile

I guess I need to say,
That almost everyday,
I find myself smiling this way...
it's a way i've never smiled before.

I can't figure out where
this smile I appear to wear,
well how did it get there?
How come i've never smiled this way before?

Bridge

The question goes round and round in my head,
and...like i've already said,
I still cant work out why...ive never smiled like this before.


chorus:
So I take a moment to work it out,
and then I see your face.
And I realize only then
what that smile is all about,
It all fits into place...
The way you make me feel...so special inside
The way it makes me feel that this boy is mine..
and that's what this smile is all about.



Ma has asked me one night,
apparently it's such a sight,
to see me looking alright...
What's that smile all about?

My friends all think i've turned a leaf,
they see how happy I am underneath,
they all say they think it's such a relief,
and ask...
What's that smile all about?

Bridge:

The question goes round and round in my head,
and...like i've already said,
I still cant work out why...ive never smiled like this before.

Chorus:

So I take a moment to work it out,
and then I see your face.
And I realise only then
what that smile is all about,
It all fits into place.
The way you make me feel...so special inside
The way it makes me feel that this boy is mine..
and thats waht this smile is all about.
