Note To Self (two curse words)

Hmmm...I'm not so sure about this one. Either it's pretty good, or really, REALLY bad. =/



Note To Self

Closing my eyes,
wishing for you to fade away.
I don't want to see your face anymore.
Stow away in the darkness,
so I can see your bones decay.

(chorus)
Slit the shell of your skin,
I wanna watch you bleed, girl.
Let the pain course through you,
I wanna hear you scream, girl.
Don't fight it,
let your past haunt you.
I want to feel your suffering, girl.


I don't want to put up with you shit anymore,
so I'm not gonna take your shit anymore, girl.
Tear a gap in your soul,
so I can cackle at your pain.

(chorus)
Slit the shell of your skin,
I wanna watch you bleed, girl.
Let the pain course through you,
I wanna hear you scream, girl.
Don't fight it,
let your past haunt you.
I want to feel your suffering, girl.

Screaming,
at the cracked mirror before me.
I'm screaming,
the sound of you dying inside.

(chorus)
Slit the shell of your skin,
I wanna watch you bleed, girl.
Let the pain course through you,
I wanna hear you scream, girl.
Don't fight it,
let your past haunt you.
I want to feel your suffering, girl.

Hey, Spazola. I'm not sure if you could handle what I say (most writers now are having trouble doing that) but if you can't, than that's fine...

This is way overused, dude

I like the agression in this... not metnioning the visual, but it's cliche, dude.

I like how sick this was... pretty sick. I like it. I do this alot.
Let the pain course through you,

i do this alot, too ... you copying me? - lol.
Don't fight it,

I liked the chorus overall, but it was still a bit cliche.

How'd this happen? first he wants to see dying, now he's screaming to it?

I found it to be cliche, but very impressive. It had, rage, it had visual (which was spectacular)... stay gold, dude. I like rage songs and song with visual, so...

Impressive,



Demon

I'm a little confused....you say you like certain parts over-all, but you also say they're cliche (though I agree, some of those lines are overused). So should I change those particular lines, or would that screw it up?

Sorry, I just don't quite understand. =p

It's one person. She's speaking to herself, hence the title (Note to Self) and the mention of a mirror.

It wasn't supposed to be obvious, but I guess I'm not so smooth with half-assed hidden meanings. =p

Thank you very much for your help. ^_^

No, you have to understand that cliche is nessacary sometimes, especially if you have something like this. There's just certain levels of cliche...

a-bit cliche - okay (normal)
cliche - not bad
a-little-too-cliche - not so good
way too cliche - you better head for the hills from me... lol

I'm more into the music, Spazola is probably aiming for... so I'd no... lol

but that's all in opinion, I guess. Though, Spazola, you did make it seem less cliche than it would be, forgot to mention.
