I follow my dreams,you'd think there were nightmares the way they scream
I make 'em believe,WOOH! someday someday I'm gonna be the next big thing

Fame is nothing but lies,
Brought up by greed,
The public still denies,
What is caused by their need.

--------------------------------------------

If you can hide the pain
That's crushing your thoughts
If you can close the vein
And start to clot

But it's far to late
You can no longer lie
You must accept your fate
It's time to die

-------------------------------------------

A forgotten soul,
Now a hollow shell;
Stuck on cruise control,
Going straight to hell.

Hey Emp..what genre did you have in mind with those lyrics?

Rap seemed to work quite well with 'em..especially with a brief pause after each line...using that pause as a brief build-up of anticipation that comes rushing in with the next line...and then so on from there

Verse 1
don't know where im going
but i know what im leaving from
maybe you can help me
tell me what it is you want
and i cant quite remember what it is i wanted to forget
maybe its forever
maybe its just happiness

Chorus
well i know that you've
got much better things to do
and thats all right
love is a privilege
its not my right

Verse 2
remember when you told me
that you didnt care at all
and everyone around you
wondering when it is you'd fall
but me i never questioned
everyones sane, ive lost my mind
everybodys changing
why should it be different this time

Chorus

My song:

Verse 1:
Sometime's life is flashing,every one is talking
You see that I am shining but every body's looking
You see me;Yeah!Yeah!

Chorus:
I see myself;in a mirror
And I see the one
inside of me
but when you I inside my heart
You can see the one;

Everyone one is trying, trying really hard.
But me I'm shinin', sparklin', glowing like a star.

I'm Dewing me, being me, rising to the top.
Every one is thirsty, drinking me like soda-pop.

You're guzzlin', I'm bubblin, climbing the Mountain.
The Mountain Dew nation,
The Mountain Dew nation.

Lil' Dew-ezy, the Carter
welcome to the Dew charter...
of Mountain
Drink that fountain...
soda pop.

Dew the Dew and be you just like
Lil' Dew-ezy Dew.

Emp, I'd say the second lyrics would sound better with a hard rock type feel to it. I can't really imagine a guitar part for it right now, but a basic syncopated drum beat would be kinda cool under it.
