Music of the Damned

Music Of The Damned

The pounding beat of a drum
The haunting call of a guitar
The woeful sound of a saxophone
A singer singing the thoughts I have
Thoughts I cannot share
All heard in the darkest of night
Alone with my thoughts and the thoughts of the singer
I hear how life is not worth living
How there is no hope
How there is no chance of a future
Depression reaches into my very soul
Tearing me apart at the seams
I listen, absorbing every word
Letting the notes control my heartbeat
My head throbs as I listen
My hand reaches to table next to me
A thin sliver of shiny metal
Sharpened by men who didn’t know how it would be used
The singer had no idea what his words could do
The last note of the song matches my last breath
My heart beats to an ever slowing beat
It stops as the drummer screams
The song ends and so have I
Just the last victim of the music of the damned


Premium Member The Shirelles

This is one of the most famous “girl groups” anyone knows.
They began in Passaic, New Jersey as the “Poquellos”
The four members were Shirley Owens and Beverly Lee,
along with Addie “Mickie” Harris, and Doris Coley.
These four young girls had a huge stroke of luck for a fate
when they had Mary Jane Greenberg for a high school classmate.
This start of some great careers took place in nineteen fifty-eight.
Mary Jane’s mother operated a small record label.
Florence Greenberg knew these girls were quite talented and able.
Now known as “The Honeytones”, they recorded their first song.
“I Met Him on a Sunday” was a hit.  It did not take long
before “The Shirelles” became a popular recording act.
Their success in entertainment became a solid fact.

Everything with their careers seemed to be going quite right.
“Dedicated to the One I Love” and “Tonight’s The Night”
along with “Baby, It’s You”, “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow”,
“Mama Said’, and many other hit songs some people would know
boosted their popularity and brought them much joy.
However, their biggest hit was a short one called “Soldier Boy”
This intended B-side song brought them their greatest success.
It went to number one, and brought everyone happiness.
That little song they did not care for helped them on their way.
Success and fame continued for this group from day to day
Music from this girl group is still played and enjoyed today.

That Song Our Lips Sing

Peaceful and bright night
full of wanderous stars
catch us kissing...
feeling so lost
in the whispering pine trees;
and there's no shame in giving
ourselves to heartfelt joys to stimulate
sensations in our warm souls!

That song our lips sing
comes from the endless love we feel;
faithful woman...steal this childish heart,
longing for dreams never
dared to be sought!
That song our lips sing
was born  yesterday,right here...
when loneliness suddenly
turned into happiness;
when we vowed never to fear
the unhappy and envious
faces of others!

Peaceful and bright night
full of wanderous stars...
fulfill our needs and desires,
because only night was made for love,
for people who never have enough to give:
like that song our lips sing!

A Song of Hope

Sing for me
A Song
... A song of hope!

Sing for me 
A song
... Different from this
Which I hear 
everyday! 

What song do I hear
On a daily basis?
You query...

... I hear
A Song of pain
A Song of bondage
A Song of anarchy
A Song of deceit
A Song of fear
A Song of hunger
And Songs...
Of POVERTY!!!
Songs of poverty 
Amidst plenty...
Songs of the poor
Amidst the rich.

songs whose tunes
turns a man to a goat
songs whose tunes 
makes the husband's 
sigh
seem to you like the
belated bleating of a 
hungry goat
albeit the piercing 
moo
of a cow
hit by the fulani's 
staff...

The same song 
Whose tunes turns 
the
Woman to a hen.
She asks her sighing 
husband
The reason for his 
sigh
But because she is 
hit
By the same bullet
She clucks like a hen
Hot in heat!

Can anybody sing to 
me?
...A song of hope.
A song which will
Ease the pain of my 
people...

...A song of hope.
A song which will
Ease the burning in 
my heart...

...A song of hope.
A song which will
Bring salvation to my 
kindred...

...A song of hope.
A song which will
Bring smiles to our 
smileless faces...

Is there any
Out there with such 
a song?
If there is...
Let (s)he come fast 
and furious
With the songs
Accompaniments let 
him bother not
About. Lots of them 
have we!

Just come
Come along to us
With the song.
Ready are we
With instruments
And vocals.
Just come 
To sing for us
... A song of hope!!!

Premium Member To a Quiet Place

Autumn leaves have lost their color now
Winter's cold has chilled all things
Come away my love, He calls to me
Come to me and learn before this spring

My Spirit longs for more time with Him
While gray clouds bring somber days
He calls to me, come away my love
To a quiet place to set ablaze

A heart that aches from life's hurtful times.
In my distress he echoes
Come away my love; He calls to me
To read His word, give Him all my throes.

An apple tree among the wood's trees
Is my special love; each day
He calls to me, come away my love
How I long to go and with Him stay..

Or Song Of Songs chapter 2

Premium Member Smoke Dreams

This melody of yesteryear sounded great.
We would hear it on a record at seventy-eight.
Anybody could play the song on a Victrola.
One listened to it on a juke box by Rock-Ola.
The subject of this song by Jo Stafford of all things,
was about the romantic dreams of smoke rings.

Miss Stafford’s voice was one anyone adores.
Back then, it was no crime to smoke indoors.
When dealing with broken hearts lovers wanted to forget,
they would often sit down and have a cigarette.
A habit of the past many considered glamorous
is now deemed to be offensive and insalubrious.
The song sounded mellifluous and sublime.
Things have changed significantly over time.

It's a Sunny Day

 It's a sunny day
Don't want drama anyway
I want to say something before you go
Where have you gone,
Princess of the dawn?
I want you to pray for lovely things to grow

May, may I say something in this song, song?
Say, say what you need to say, need to say
Okay, okay - I've done you so much wrong, wrong
Pray, pray I'll do okay today, do okay today

Playing piano today
Feeling okay happy, I must say
I want to say you're everything to me every single day
Where have you gone?
Have you already moved on?
I want you to pray for sweet sunshine to glow our way

May, may I say something in this song, song?
Say, say what you need to say, need to say
Okay, okay - I've done you so much wrong, wrong
Pray, pray I'll do okay today, do okay today
May, may I say something in this song, song?
Say, say what you need to say, need to say
Okay, okay - I've done you so much wrong, wrong
Pray, pray I'll do okay today, do okay today
May, may I say something in this song, in this song?
Say, say what you need to say, need to say
I've gone astray, gone astray for an awful too long 
I pray you have the ability and energy to stay

May I say something in this somewhat short song?
You long to belong, to belong, despite right from wrong
It's a sunny day,
Playing piano today

A Song For You


I want to sing, such a Song for you, 
So the sleep may come to you, 
When I sing the song for you
The fairies from heaven would come,
To take you softly in dreams.

You know when the fairies come, 
The buds of your heart would bloom,
Leaving every clouds behind, 
They would take you on their wings 
On the silver surface of the Moon.

If the Moon is not there, 
They would take you to your stars,  
They fairies would tell your stars,  
To shine and more shine,
Till your dreams come true.

I want to sing, such a Song for your, 
So the sleep may come to you, 
When I sing the song for you
The fairies from heaven would come,
To take you softly in dreams.

Do you know when the Moon and stars tells, 
The sleep always comes
To rest in your eyes.
These stars tell everything  
In their own silent way,
While shining far away in the sky.

I am singing a song for you, 
So the sleep may come to you,

Premium Member Memory Lane

Memory Lane

I took a trip down memory lane,
Felt the joy, felt the pain
There are memories I regret
And sometimes I wish I could forget
But on this trip, I found some hope
There were moments, before I grew old
Days of joy, days I’d say…
When I wasn’t nearly so old and gray

Chorus:

And feelings came…
Feelings of joy, some shame
Feelings shining bright
As the morning light
Feelings… so many feelings

On this trip down memory lane,
I found some pleasure
In the past, where I can say…
There were days I felt so alive
And I knew I would surely survive
But some days, I wasn’t so strong
Even when weak, I’d sing my song

Chorus:

And feelings came…
Feelings of joy, some shame
Feelings shining bright
As the morning light
Feelings… so many feelings

I took this trip down memory lane,
Where life revealed some things insane
Some treasures were found
On my journey through time
And I knew, even when I was lost
There was a reason for it all
There is a reason for it all
Just listen to the call… the call

Chorus:

And feelings came…
Feelings of joy, some shame
Feelings shining bright
As the morning light
Feelings… so many feelings

On my trip down memory lane,
I heard a voice, the Creator, He said…
On your journey, I hope you’ll see
Beneath the shadows, beyond the gray
To the wonder of all that’s been,
The life you’ve been given, the grace
All the feelings, all the dreams…
Listen, child… it’s a gift from my hand

This life is a gift… my trip God has blessed
God has blessed me… yes, I am blessed!

Premium Member An Ordinary Man

I want to be inspired to write
    a song people really want to sing;
I want to be inspired to compose
    a requiem for the King;
But, I’m just an ordinary man
    doing the best I can
        at writing poems
            that have no homes.

I want to be inspired to find
    a cure for this cancer thing;
I want to be inspired to reach
    out for the golden ring;
But, I’m just an ordinary man
    doing the best I can
        at getting by
            with the good old college try.

I want to be inspired to lead
    a revolutionary coup;
I want to be inspired to be
    the best at everything I do;
But, I’m just an ordinary man
    doing the best I can
        to make ends meet
            and not live on the street.

I have the motivation;
I’ll put in the perspiration;
I can give it concentration;
But, I lack the inspiration;

Inspire me.
What will it take to inspire me?

I want to be inspired to write
    a song people really want to sing;
I want to be inspired to compose
    a requiem for the King;
But, I’m just an ordinary man
    doing the best I can
        at writing poems
            that have no homes.
