Tiir's poetry

[tiirenae]

While I'm being a coward and trying to get up enough nerve to post my character profile, I'd figured I'd give you something else to read. The first one I'll post is actually a song, the first song I've written where the tune actually came first.

I Dare You

Silence splits us now.
Our song fades, it's ended.
There's no use asking why
when you knew all the time
you wouldn't do it over.

I don't call you my mistake,
but you've always been
a challenge, a battle,
another dream to pass me by.

I dare you to remember,
I dare you to look inside.
No victims, no bias,
nothing left to fight.
I dare you to remember,
dare you to try to find
everything you threw behind...
I dare you to remember me.

Do you know where to start
when the sunrise ends?
I know you don't have time
to ask yourself why,
you gotta fake those grins.

Was I called your mistake?
Have I always been
your wasted time and burden
the failure in your life?

I dare you to remember,
I dare you to look inside.
No victims, no bias,
nothing left to fight.
I dare you to remember,
dare you to try to find
everything you threw behind...
I dare you to remember me.

I dare you to try and see
back when you believed in me,
when you didn't have to lie.
I dare you to look past you,
and then past me.
Was all we had a lie?

This is my proof,
you can't hear the truth
because you're never wrong.
I made mistakes
but I dare you to
look past them all and maybe...

remember me.

Laugh Away

If you're stupid enough to think you won the fight just cause I cry,
think again 'cause
losing it just means I'm being honest.
I'd rather lose it
if I can't make you laugh my hurt away.

So laugh away,
take the sarcasm
for all it's worth.
Laugh away,
laugh my hurt away.

I don't wanna feel this pain even when I cry,
don't make me, 'cause
pain isn't worth killing your soul over.
I'd rather lose it
and maybe you'll laugh my hurt away.

So laugh away,
take the sarcasm
for all it's worth.
Laugh away,
laugh my hurt away.

Please don't think I'm
hating you inside.
please remember
I just want to be me...

I really enjoy "I Dare You". It has a good edge to it, and I like that a lot. I'm a musician myself, and I love a good song lyric. Keep it up Let me know if you have any of your music posted anywhere, eh?
