This isn't a story, but I've seen others post their lyrics or poems, so here's one of mine. I don't know if any of the people on this forum are into rap (there certainly seems to be a lot of anti-chav people), but hopefully everyone can appreciate lyrics whatever the style of the song. Here goes, and if you feel like reading it in the style, just talk it in your head, quiet fast. Apart from the chorus bit (which is sung) it's just rap.
Broken.
Take a leaf from my book
The book you took and perverted
Inverted, deserted, yeah you know you deserve it
For your lies that you try to disguise
Run and hide but you can't go
Turn around and watch your own blood flow
How you liking it now?
When you're left alone to die anyhow?
And you're pushed around and down
Painted up and scorned like a clown
As you always used to try on me
But I'm free from disease
And the land and the sea
Can't drop me into the sky
From below I'll see you all on your own
The ghost remains all the same on your broken throne.
All caught up in the dust
And regretting your trust in me
All caught up in the dust
And destroying all signs of me
All caught up in the dust
And you know you can never be free
All caught up in the dust
And regretting your trust in me.
Yeah it puzzles me why
You won't take a hint and just die
I hope you fry in your heavenly hell
May as well cover the smell of burning flesh
Not so fresh but it's all the same to me
You can't see what I see only see what you want to believe
When you grieve for the death of the Creed
All the greed is filtered in
Catching up with sin for every harsh remark
Feeling all the pain of stealing life shot down in the dark
And when you're dying hear the voices of the morning lark
Bring the light, angels hark "it's alright"
Puppies bark through the night and the air's getting tight.
All caught up in the dust
And regretting your trust in me
All caught up in the dust
And destroying all signs of me
All caught up in the dust
And you know you can never be free
All caught up in the dust
And regretting your trust in me.
So you wait for redemption
Inventing the tension don't mention this
And maybe you'll get what you wanted
Tracked down and hunted shunted
Thrown to the side ride right by
Hit me once I won't die
And again and again
And you'll strike to the end
I'll defend and tend to my own needs now
Don't need you anyhow
And I'll scream 'cause I'm proud
Watch your blood pouring down
Crimson rain reigns supreme
We all die probably not lonely
'Cause I'll cause you some grief
And I'll die happily
Watch for me and I'll tell a story
Right before your throat gets slit
Cutting it, can you dig?
I'll dig for you a shallow grave for you
And I'll run to you one last time so I can drive it through
My knife won't break upon your heart of stone
'Cause I'll attack from the back
So you can feel it too I feel for you
But I no longer care right there I just stare
At the life leave you
An ending descending, pretending nothing's wrong
Just you sing your song and move on
Away from your lying lay down dying
Angels flying devils walk and talk to you
Stalking you tell you things you know aren't true
If you only knew you were through
Before you started and parted with sanity
Vanity all follow me in a dream
To the sea of all seas it's an obscenity
You can't flee but I'm free to leave
Discreetly you can't go you're diseased
Chronically critically damaged
No bandage can heal what's not real
Seal the deal with death
Lost is your breath to the wind of desire
Feel the fire inspired but cold
And you're mouldy and old
Sold to release you from the fold of existence
The distance is blistering and paved with resistance
All your sad, maddened, bad, iron clad
Doings stacking up each a cut
Frightened but it's a shoe-in you can't win
You're going to hell might as well
Take a nail of my hatred and spite
Fight the light despite hating the height
Drive it in every sin, sense the nothing you are
Who'd have known you could start
All of this just a kiss on your neck
My cold steel knife ends the life that was already gone
And move on nothing to see here
Even I don't have a reason to be here
So I'll go leave you alone dead by the stones
And all that anyone knows is that this right here...
Is the end.
