Writing Holy Water [E]

[Dragon Warrior]

[size=1]An old song I wrote last year. I wrote it with guitar as well.[/size]

"This Holy Water that's in my veins,
Is bringing back dark memories and harmful pains.
You pour the ether on your wounds in the shadows of the day,
And down in the barracks of a crumpled castle,
You drink your dreams away.
Humming...

There's a place that you keep calling me,
There's a time that's overwhelming me.
I know of a sacred place that we can go and hide,
Until the darkness of this world finally subsides.

This Holy Water has reached into my heart,
It's taken away all my feelings and is tearin' me apart.
You live your life under a bridge watching time go past,
As if the ghost once known as love would never really last.

There's a place that you keep calling me,
There's a darkness that's overwhelming me.
I know of a sacred place that we can go and hide,
Until the darkness of this world finally subsides.

And now it's raining down on me,
Creating an ocean of hate, yeah.
I'm being swept away from you, baby,
Looks like the Holy Water has sealed our fates.

There's a place that you keep calling me,
There's a cast that's overwhelming me.
I know of a sacred place that we can go and hide,
Until the darkness of this world finally subsides.

Holy Water in my veins..."[/font]


It would definately sound a whole lot better if it was heard with music, but I thought I might as well post these lyrics. I often write in metaphors or in words not often used. You'll hear my lyrics and think of me being crazy. If you understand the song, then you don't really understand the song because there is no way you can get the meaning without me telling you. But that's how I always write songs.

EDIT: I noticed that the title is wrong. I happened to be listening to the song "The Beauty of Gray" while typing this post. My bad. I'll have a mod change it.

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=1][B]Good thing I didn't try understanding it, lol. It would definitely be better if you sing it to us. ^_~

I love your metaphors. And as a poem, the flow of words or the rhythm is great. Using words not often used made it sound like a theme song from a fantasy RPG or something. Now the feeling I get from reading this is kind of sweet and, at the same time, sad. Will you ever tell us the meaning of this song?[/B][/SIZE][/COLOR]

Thank you. Long ago when I wrote this, I believed it to be my best song ever. Boy, I spoke too soon. This is one of my worse songs out of the collection I've done. I feel more pleased with my latest work than this. I just wanna see how people view the points in the song, since they're all so obscured.
