Here's my side of the lyrics for the CMHWAK split.
Hindenburg
When we fall, we all fall together; when we fall, we all fall apart. Smoke churns in our lungs with the smell of decay as the funeral pyre burns, crashing onto our knees and clawing up to the sky; crying out for the feeling of shelter. What I once cared for is now burning to ashes and I bury my face in my hands. I'll be damned if we live through this. My dirigible heart in tow until this ends, I'll ruin this whole city when I crash. Blood by blood and through the hands of a loved one, we all fall apart.
Notes from the parade of carrion worms
The tides from the sea of Charybdis swell up to consume the empire's lonely vessels as the eye strikes where wheels come and splinter into sails. "Our chariots are treading water!", scream the slave-seafarers. Circles split within circles, teeth into the sea; they rise into the aether, where blood and ampersands breathe. Tread water; carrion worms.
The quiet passing of lights and highways
With yearning, time resonates with the dissonant ends of half-formed sentences; mute and incongruent, smoke signals still line the paths I take. Hands to the window, the days keep passing me by; transient shadows form black contrails behind me. Station to station, there is life in the absence of warmth and compassion in each quiet passing. Highway to highway, streetlight to streetlight, I linger on through an endless dawn. This is a life whose freedom is the price I pay; a being in time, a being in nothing, a being whose soul flees in transit. I lost my soul in the morning commute, I followed its traces; this all leads back to you. You and I, we still resonate with the ends of half-formed sentences.
Circles of latitude
The view from this lonesome window hasn't changed much since you left. With the crossing of calendar days seeing to every inch of this splendor, it lingers on, untouched by all but the thinnest strands of borrowed time; beautifully still and endlessly so. I've been keeping the doors cracked in hopes of seeing you again, if only to watch you pass by from behind the gaze of weathered horizons. With the turning of battered clock hands comes a summer that never ends, a summer that harbors no regrets and a summer who in her days will make no amends. As timeless as you are unapologetic, you are the sun that never sets.
When all roads lead to the same place, the drive is always in circles. Close your windows; I still know where you live and you're not so far away, at least not anymore. The earth's circumference is all there is between us; at arm's reach from you and where you stay. At least this friendship says so. I still believe we're best friends.

Re: Post your band's lyrics here.
these are the only sets of lyrics I actually know (sing) in my band. I wrote standing upright, and got a word or two in lies that bind.
standing upright
wake in a cold sweat, it was all just a dream. but in this dream it was me and you, you and me
youll make me suffer, for what I lost myself. and today is forever, because the dream is becoming my own nest
and I am hanging all your pictures upside down, so i can find something useful to do with my time because I can't see you when I'm standing upright.
lies that bind
I couldn't love you, your trust was lost before it was gained. And this is your weakness: you loved too much but nothing for me. And skeletons were all we were, and ever will be, I'm damaged to dust. I know where you've been hiding, I know where you've been lying.

Re: Post your band's lyrics here.
those were pretty appresh. here's what i've written thus far for my top scene skram project in the works to ruin this thread:
ernest scared shitless
i collapsed into cody's arms, defeated
wishing i could be the great redneck hope
and impenetrable to bullets.
but there was trash as far as the eye could see.
he shed a single tear, but not for me.
know what i mean?
in pog form
"please slammer, don't hurt 'em!"
the world is made of steel, and it crashes down upon me.
melissa lee williams
with the sharpened edge of a blade,
and the desperation found in the horny,
there were now three unsatisfied slits
stinking up the motel room.
merengue
late within the evening, yet still i taste the sun.
i sense the scent of mushrooms but it's lemon's puckering my tongue.
but the moon ain't rising until she is done,
or i am done, either one.

Re: Post your band's lyrics here.
Form / Shape / Mould - new Laatste Halte song
sniff the blood back up your nose
grow a beard, grow could
hit your head, face floor
breathe in humiliation, but don't speak
force fed orderliness
face the ground
new meaning to compliance
fix the puzzle
with stained pieces
Form / Shape / Mould
eat voices
degrade characters
embrace repetition
nothing matters:
no politics
no feelings
just work
and silence
some people have only work/school they can talk about, no real interest in art/music/politics/etc, how can I communicate/connect with them as they devalue averything I love
Hamiha Haramiha -also a new LH song
Hamiha Haramiha
Arabic expression(?) for 'whom protects you, steals from you / betrays you
also 2 lyrics I wrote for my 80s fast hardcore punk band:
Tough Guy Holocaust
Name one thing on earth lower than a tough guy
tough guy holocaust
why should flex your head?
tough guy holocaust
go back to the gym
Fit Out
Outside of the outsiders
big city or small town
appraised by their eyes
biggest mistake of life
But I'm not here for you
outcasted by you
and your friends
not part of your crew
not part of your trend
Fit Out
different clothes
different hair
who cares
sniff the blood back up your nose
grow a beard, grow could
hit your head, face floor
breathe in humiliation, but don't speak

Re: Post your band's lyrics here.
this song is called baby
You know you love me,I know you care
Just shout whenever, And I'll be there
You want my love, You want my heart
And we will never ever ever be apart
Are we an item? Girl quit playing
Were just friends, What are you saying
Said theres another, Look right in my eyes
My first love broke my heart for the first time,
And I was like
Baby, baby, baby ohhh
Like baby, baby, baby noo
Like baby, baby, baby ohh
I thought youd always be mine mine
Baby, baby, baby ohh
Like baby, baby, baby noo
Like baby, baby, baby ohh
I thought youd always be mine,mine (oh oh)
For you, I would have done whatever
And I just can't believe, we ain't together
And I wanna play it cool, But I'm losin' you
I'll buy you anything, I'll buy you any ring
And im in pieces, Baby fix me
And just shake me til' you wake me from this bad dream
Im going down, down, down, dooown
And I just cant believe my first love would be around.
And I'm like
Baby, baby, baby ohh
Like baby, baby, baby noo
Like baby, baby, baby ohh
I thought youd always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby ohh
Like baby, baby, baby noo
Like baby, baby, baby ohhh
I thought youd always be mine, mine
my boi Luda dropped some rhymes too-
When I was 13, I had my first love,
There was nobody that compared to my baby,
And nobody came between us or could ever come above
She had me goin' crazy,
Oh I was starstruck,
She woke me up daily,
Don't need no Starbucks.
She made my heart pound,
And skip a beat when I see her in the street and,
At school on the playground,
But I really wanna see her on the weekend,
She know she got me gazin',
Cuz she was so amazin',
And now my heart is breakin',
But I just keep on sayin'...
Baby, baby, baby ohh
Like baby, baby, baby noo
Like baby, baby, baby ohh
I thought youd always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby ohh
Like baby, baby, baby noo
Like baby, baby, baby ohh
I thought youd always be mine, mine
(I'm gone)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (6x)
(Now Im all gone, now im all gone, now im all gone)
Gone, gone, gone,(gone)
I'm gone.
You know you love me,I know you care
Just shout whenever, And I'll be there
You want my love, You want my heart
And we will never ever ever be apart
Are we an item? Girl quit playing
Were just friends, What are you saying
Said theres another, Look right in my eyes
My first love broke my heart for the first time,

Re: Post your band's lyrics here.
lyrics for my band alenah's EP.
http://alenah.bandcamp.com
it's in swedish incase you wanna use google translate.
dödfödd (intro)
så ung, men ändå eldas jag inför roade blickar.
i blå timmen tonas allt mot sin rätta färg.
ett sotigt hjärta ger snart upp,
liksom solens strålar.
två brutna vingar är ett liv för mycket.
följ gamla nystan,
följ gamla nystan mot en säker plats runt runda bordet
där ditt blekfeta skinn kan fortsätta svälla.
monstret
samma blod pumpas runt.
tonen som mig alltid skurit
finns någonstans inom mig.
marken som mig alltid burit
ljudlöst, sakta, delar sig.
vi stirrar ut i kaoset,
monstret blottas bit för bit.
vi stirrar in i stormens öga,
vi letar men hittar aldrig dit
vi som barn målade oss själva,
dit vi oss drömde då.
lämna mig.
den väg vi sen barnsben vandrat,
grusas i en andhämtning.
vindspel
tagen med handen sluten runt den förbjudna frukt,
jag törstar natt och dag efter iskallt bemötande.
tagen av skalets självklara lyster,
säg mig, när kan jag ta steget ut mot gröna ängar?
sötman suger sig upp,
om en stund jag ligger ner,
låter giftet göra sitt.
svävar ut på dimmigt hav,
nu när tromben gett sig av,
greppar något, släpper efter.
låt dom ta dig lilla vän,
döden är närmare än hem.
precis som sorgen är du evig.
sen dag ett är det satt,
precis som dagen går till natt.
precis som sorgen är du evig.
och vem fan är du att säga vad som är rätt och fel?
du lever livet längs med lögner, svek och tomma ord.
tagen med handen sluten runt den förbjudna frukt,
jag törstar natt och dag efter iskallt bemötande.
tagen av skalets självklara lyster,
säg mig, när kan jag ta steget ut mot gröna ängar?
- där jag kan leva ut.
(fallet arkiveras, en saknad vän förblir försvunnen.
vi scannar drivorna med stängda ögon,
utan bekräftelse slutar vi aldrig hoppas.
en tom sittplats vid dukat bord,
vi lämnar en lampa tänd och dörren olåst.
samma gnista i vårt bröst
som inte tusen tårar släcker)
låt dom ta dig lilla vän,
döden är närmare än hem.
precis som sorgen är du evig.
sen dag ett är det satt,
precis som dagen går till natt.
precis som sorgen är du evig.
smittan
det bryter ut,
svarta bölder,
grumligt vatten.
dagsljuset, en illusion?
ska vi finna frid?
det bryter in,
som stål i ruttna lungor.
dagsljuset, en illusion?
Gud tar ut sin fulla rätt.
Den dagen vi står utan kontrast
till de som gjort oss så ont, vi ber.
vi ber om mer kadaver,
lik att frossa i.
vi ber som självslig tomhet,
släpp elden fri.
smittan förde oss samman.
råttorna
svälj era snyftsagor så som de svalde er.
täck för era fönster,
mina råttor dras till ljus.
gå lås era dörrar,
smittan finns i nyckel hålen
och i luften vi andas,
för luften vi andas
är ångor av ett blodbad.
råttorna flockas,
festar på andras misär.
hitta tillbaka till er värdighet.
era pestsjuka fittor.
