Re: sparklexxx's songwriting contest
Round 15:) This is about The Hunger Games, and I wanted the song to fit lots of different areas of the book/film. It's not my best work, and it's pretty long but I hope you like it!
If We Burn, You Burn With Us!
I'm not just a piece in your games
I won't die so you can have revenge
They won't stand so you can starve them
If you think that you could beat us
Then
I'll do whatever I can
So I can save my home our land
They won't be there when you need them
If you think that they'll fall victim then
Please call the makers of the game
Please bring the death that comes our way
Don't expect a quiet night
If she falls then we will rise
Forget the clothes and fancy cuts
If we burn, you burn with us
I'm in a place I don't know
wish that I could just go home
I can't even see the stars
why can I only see the dark?
Why won't you let me go?
Wish I could find a place where
I might feel a bit more safe
I hope I will see the sun again
but you control the horizon
Chorus
You better run for your life
You better run for your life
Oh you better run,run,run,run,run
Run for your life
You better run for your life
You better run for your life
oh your precious life
Cause we will fight
Chorus
Look me in the eyes
do you see the fire
Don't think twice (don't think twice)
I said look me in the eye
Do you see that fire
that fire won't die
that cannon won't strike
Chorus
Turn your tv off
star crossed love won't make them stop
they won't bet on us
to save your life you'll pay the costs
Run for your life
October 22nd 2012, the world turns RED.

Re: sparklexxx's songwriting contest
For Alice in Wonderland :)
{ALICE}
I saw you running away
Trying to look innocent in white.
You were only keeping someone waiting
You would just slip into the night.
I followed you through the darkness
Bare footed, vulnerable and young.
I was not at all prepared for
What was yet to come.
You would sugar coat it all but
In the end I would shrink back into my hole.
chorus
You made life with you seem
Like I was in a Wonderland.
Like this was all a marvelous dream
But of course it was just part of your plan.
Why didn't I know right from the start
That you were just the king of broken hearts?
I should've seen the signs
The warning flashes of red.
Screaming hurt and deceit
Well now you've left me full of dread.
You would make time with you look sweet
Now it's too late to see that it was poison.
chorus
You've left me drowning here
In a sea of my own tears.
Should've seen your poker face
Now all of the cards have been played.
chorus
So are you now satisfied?
Cause I believed all of your lies.
Stay Fearlessly Beautiful,
TaylorRose xx

Re: sparklexxx's songwriting contest
Based on Cinderella...not the best but whatever, it's worth a shot

Forever Here
This dress On a glorious night
Shining so gracefully Under the lights
I was granted One wish
And now I sit So enchanted
And I walk to the doors
Of the beautiful palace
And we danced All night
Hoping it would last forever
Chorus:
I left my shoe On the stairs
You left my heart In the air
And now I'm dreaming Of your smile
I'll be waiting for a while
Please come and save me
Prince Charming
I left you dancing Alone
And now your searching For the one
But darling I'm so near
I'll be forever here
So I run away
From everything that night
Cause I knew
It wouldn't be alright
I'm not the type of girl
Your looking for
I'm not the one you want
Though you look some more
And I remember that night
So flawless and bright
Chorus:
And your standing at my door
With that very same shoe
And you look at me and smile
Just like you always do
You kneel in front of me
And I can't believe
It fits me perfectly....
I left my shoe on the stairs
You have my heart right there
I dreamt of your smile
And I waited for a while
I promise I won't leave you dancing alone
Running away from the one
I'll always be near
I'll be forever here

Re: sparklexxx's songwriting contest
This is about haylor.
Written: January 15, 2013
Lyrics:
What did you see in my eyes that made you cry?
What did you feel as you told me the reason why?
You said it didn't feel right, but it didn't feel wrong
But it's not my fault, that you felt nothing at all
CHORUS:
You catch the tear that falls down my face
I tell you I don't want to be replaced
You stare at me with wide green eyes
and for the first time
It feels wrong
It all seems wrong
I kiss you, one last time
and you don't seem to mind
What did you hear in you voice that you liked?
It must've been something cuz you just kept talking, talking
and I didn't need you to say, I didn't want you to explain
What did you fear when you held me tight
Maybe you were afraid that it did feel right
CHORUS
Let me go, I just want to be alone
This isn't justice, it is just foolish
When you say you love me, but your letting me go
When you say you need me, but you can't let me know
CHORUS 2:
You catch the tear that falls down my face
But it's no use, because it's just replaced
You look at me with sorry eyes
I don't want to watch you cry
It's wrong, wrong, It feels wrong ...
You kiss me, like it's the first time
and i don't even mind
Hear it here:

Re: sparklexxx's songwriting contest
This is based on Taylor
I wrote it when I first became a swiftie last year so here it is...
If only
You know that girl,
Stood there with the blonde curls,
Well she's my everything,
And that's saying something.
Her song's make me enchanted,
The long notes leave me haunted,
Oh if only she knew I was real,
If only... if only.
You must know who I mean,
Her lucky number is 13,
Oh this is it...
Taylor Swift.
She taught me to be fearless,
And now I am ambitious,
To speak now before it's too late,
To all of her songs I can relate.
She's getting hated on though,
Don't remind me I do know,
I wish they'd leave her alone,
Who she dates will remain unknown,
Her song's make me enchanted,
The long notes leave me haunted,
Oh if only she knew how much I love her,
If only... if only.
You must know who I mean,
Her lucky number is 13,
Oh this is it...
Taylor Swift.
Taylor you're flawless,
Your fan base is enormous,
Just carry on being amazing,
And don't stop being crazy.
Her song's make me enchanted,
The long notes leave me haunted,
Oh if only she knew how much I love her,
If only... if only.
You must know who I mean,
Her lucky number is 13,
Oh this is it...
Taylor Swift.

Re: sparklexxx's songwriting contest
Here's my entry for the "orange"round haha, I love these themes :P
Talisman
Verse 1:
The sun shines so bright since I know you
I see so many things that I wanna show you
From the orange butterflies to the paradise
With the sunrise and all the sparkly skies
It’s like those lovely favourite songs
That we could play all summer long
It’s yet fall, but I needed it’s wind
To find me on my own and blow me in
Chorus:
Now I am the lucky one
You’re so honestly sweet
That you could’ve been the sun
Pulling the best out of me
We have those endless conversations
That I could write a book of
I was so used to complications
That I related them to love
But here you are and I want us to last
So here’s a talisman to get the best
Verse 2:
Life is beautiful since I fell down
Somehow I found my way back into the clouds
With the warm coats and the burning snow
And the love grows and you’re all that I know
It’s like lyrics stuck in our heads
The conversations I won’t forget
Please hold me so you remember me too
The way I’m hopelessly in love with you
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
I’ll say the words you wanna hear
Or else I’ll whisper it into your ear
I’ll lay in your arms all night long
Quietly and singing our songs
I won’t move, so don’t you either
And then I’ll fall deeper and deeper
I won’t ever move, we’ll stay there forever
I don’t need anything, but us being together
Repeat Chorus
Outro:
Now I am the lucky one
Here you are and I want us to last
You could’ve been the sun
So here’s a talisman to get the best
Now I am the lucky one
Now I am the lucky one

Re: sparklexxx's songwriting contest
Here's my entry for Round 16, mentioning orange.


Dahlia's are gorgeous. xoxo
Title: "Wilt Away"
I saw you there, in your blue eyes
With a kiss that seemed like a long shot.
I heard your sweet voice and I
Thought I knew you right on the spot.
Pre-Chorus:
Standing there, you whispered "I dare you."
I tried to fight it, but I really wanted you.
Chorus:
How sweet we were together.
Everyday you'd call me lovely.
You'd give me flowers, but I
Somehow knew you had to leave.
And the orange dahlias started to wilt.
Wilt away.
Hello darling, how are you today?
I say I'm fine and by the way,
Look at the garden, it loved the rain.
It's been quite a while.
Every now and then you need a storm
I used to love still nights
But not anymore.
Pre-Chorus:
Standing there, you whispered "I dare you."
I tried to fight it, but I really wanted you.
Repeat Chorus
Oh, now, I remember
The colors of your letters,
Every word, another regret
Once written,
you can't take back what you said.
Oh, and on those days
I watched the orange
Dahlias wilt away
I knew there was no hope you'd stay....

thatlittleREDdress the great xoxo
Camryn xoxo

Re: sparklexxx's songwriting contest
hi! here's my entery, my use of the word orange isn't very creative but it's the only song i had with that in it:Dx
Yesterday
VERSE 1: i wonder if you remember, the night that we met
it’s burned in my memory, so how could you forget?
you winked at me across the room, like a little kid
and those lights didn’t shine, half as bright as your eyes did
i watch you make your way to me, a slow-moving silhouette
and i was in love with you, i just didn’t know it yet
next thing i know, we’re dancing round the parking lot
and car horns were beeping, but we didn’t stop
i was safer than i’d ever been, at home in your heart
never dreamt that because of you, i’d be falling apart
PRE-CHORUS 1: and i know it’s long gone now, nothing more to be said
but loving you isn’t something i can easily forget
CHORUS 1: cause i can see it all, that look on your face
your eyes whispered, let’s get out of this place
the memories threaten to overwhelm me
in the past, that’s where i really wanna be
and it won’t fade away,
cause i remember it like it was just yesterday
VERSE 2: i wonder if you remember, our first official date
you wore an orange t-shirt, and picked me up at eight
but the restaurant was just a little fancy for us
so we got on outta there, hopped on the next bus
the driver said where to, you said who the hell knows!
and i said take this thing as far as it goes
next thing i know, we’re in the middle of nowhere
sea salt in the air, wind rufflin’ my hair
i’ve never in my whole life, had so much fun getting lost
but i never thought that night would come at such a high cost
PRE-CHORUS 2: and i know it’s long gone, and i can no longer call you mine
but how can i just carry on, with you still plaguing my mind
CHORUS 2: cause i can see it all, that midnight beach
you lifted me up to catch the stars, cause i couldn’t reach
so tell me how i can just let go
cause loving you is the only thing i know
and it won’t fade away,
cause i’m still in love with our yesterday
BRIDGE: and what if it’s all my fault, maybe it’s me to blame
if i’d done things differently, would we have turned out the same
and maybe i loved you too much, and it wasn’t allowed
and the gods took you away from me, ‘fore i got too proud
or maybe it was you and your hasty goodbyes
the words you used to break the silence, left by your lies
or maybe it was never us, it was all up to fate
from the very start we had an expiration date
VERSE 3: i wonder if you remember, our first night alone
the cold and empty sheets, tore at my heart
next thing i know, i’m walking home alone
and all your things are gone, everything you ever owned
now to anyone it looks like you never here at all
but i can still see you, you’re all over these walls
PRE-CHORUS 3: and i know it’s long gone and i should be letting go
but before i move on there’s just one thing i need to know
CHORUS 3: cause i can see it all, the work of art we made
if you really loved me, why couldn’t you have stayed?
you broke your own words as they fell from your mouth
now you’re something i’ll just have to learn to live without
and it won’t fade away
cause you were my best yesterday!
CHORUS 4: i can still see it all, the kissing in the rain,
i’m asking god why time won’t heal the pain
they say you never really loved me, it was a disguise
but i know that’s not true, cause i looked into your eyes
i still don’t know how to feel
and that’s how i know it was real
and i won’t let it fade away,
cause i’m still living in yesterday
OUTRO: no i won’t let you fade away,
cause i’m still in love with our yesterday.

Re: sparklexxx's songwriting contest
Close to the ending
Intro:
I’m just choking looking at the orange flower
The color’s fading slowly like my sense, so sober
Verse: 1
I drive through the parking lot
Hoping to see your face through my next door
But you didn’t show ….
I pick up the phone to call you
Waiting to hear your voice on the other side
But it just kept ringing with no words
And I keep wishing you were here…
Yeah I want you near…
CHORUS
You’re spinning in my head wild
Like a broken record player again and again
But I can't help but hold it back
Though I know that it's ending
It’s close to the ending
Verse 2:
I just wanna be alone
Your thoughts haunt me around and around
I can’t find any escape….
I knock at your door
Your mama opens up talks to me about you
But you don’t come down the stairs
And I kept wishing you were here
And I just want you near ….
[REPEAT CHORUS]
Bridge:
So now you’ll just pack your bags
Leave a goodbye card and put my name on the last drawer
Now you’ll just stop the dance
Get back behind and hit the wheels going away far
But I still wish you were here
‘Cause I can’t help but wish you’d hear
Last chorus:
You’re spinning in my head wild
Like a broken record player again and again
But I can't help but hold it back
Though I know that it's ending
I’m just so emotional like
I’m wearing our photographs up and right
I just wanna hold you back
I know that everything’s ending
It’s close to the ending
Outro:
So now I put down the orange flower
Pick up the white one cause everything’s blank like ever

Re: sparklexxx's songwriting contest
The Night of Orange Fire In My Eyes
Intro:
It was such a beautiful night,
being with you, feeling alright,
Then the screaming came,
it was insane.
I threw my glasses cross the room at you,
I was so angry and mad,
didn't know what to do,
when I heard you.
Verse 1:
You had been cheating on me,
for oh so long,
and can't you see.
That I was the one,
who would never let you fall,
never let you hit the ground.
But baby....
Chorus:
You decided to hurt me,
you decided to break my heart,
and I was so distraught.
When you confessed to me,
and we fought,
to what seemed like it would be the death,
on the night,
the night of orange fire in my eyes.
Verse 2:
Now we avoid each other,
we have been for the past five years.
You are still with her,
and I am still angry.
The memory,
of that night we fought,
keeps flashing through my mind,
like a little moth that just won't go away.
And baby...
Chorus:
You decided to hurt me,
you decided to break my heart,
and I was so distraught.
When you confessed to me,
and we fought,
to what seemed like it would be the death,
on the night,
the night of orange fire in my eyes.
Verse 3:
Now we have gone our different ways,
and probably won't see each other again,
but that make me happy.
I can't stop thinking about that night,
it still haunts me to this day,
and baby...
Chorus:
You decided to hurt me,
you decided to break my heart,
and I was so distraught.
When you confessed to me,
and we fought,
to what seemed like it would be the death,
on the night,
the night of orange fire in my eyes. -

Re: sparklexxx's songwriting contest
Well here you go...my entry for round 16! :) thanks for reading
This is goodbye
Your special smile that shined so bright
I couldn't get past those green eyes
and every time I heard your laugh
its like the world was spinning fast
and your cute cravings for oranges
and the car rides with the rain pouring in
all that made me love you more
and it was cruel when you walked out my door
Chorus:
and I remember like it was yesterday
you leaned in and started talking to me
although you'd never done it before
and even when you said goodbye
I never thought it would be the time
the music stopped playing for me
it was too hard to walk the line
and we were falling far behind
I guess this is goodbye
I look back on that enchanted day
When you looked at me in the face
And promised me that this was forever
And though you looked me straight in the eye
I knew that there would be a sign
That made me run away from you
And then lightning struck
It blew me away
I'll never forget The words you said
Chorus:
And your commands
I can't stand
When you talk to me that way
And you're driving me insane
And the smirk you wear
And that cold blank stare
I get when you thought I was wrong
And I was wrong
I was wrong about you
2nd chorus:
Now when we pass down the hall
And you look at the wall
Like I'm not there
But you're the one who was never there
And that day you said goodbye
I knew that that was the time
The music played for me again
Cause you were never there
I knew it all along
I knew it all along
And the rain pouring in
And all those oranges
You'd smile with them
That special little smile
And all your little quirks
And the way you made me hurt
The cold long nights
The constant fights
The contagious lights
Your burned so bright
But that's all gone again
This is the end
