    Default Anomaly [work in progress, first try at writing...]

    Hi!
    Yes, I'm new, I've been lurking for a while though and decided I might as well post these and see what they're worth.

    Yes, they are a bit... unusual, and no, I'm not going to tell you what they're about. It ruins all the fun! What do YOU interpret this as, that's what I want to know. Also, I realise some parts don't fit in with others and some of the timing might not sound right, but it all depends on the way you read it. The way I've imagined it in my head, it actually fits together quite nicely...

    Other than that, constructive criticism is appreciated, and remember this is the first time I've ever attempted to write something, so just... don't kill me, okay? =P
    Anyway, here goes. Not exactly sure I want to see the reactions =P :

    ---

    Crawl out of our caves
    Outside we float across the cityscape
    Peer out towards the sun
    Through our skies of yellow tainted glass
    And --oh, we won't last much longer here
    No worries, leave it all to us
    Don't think, don't breathe, don't be
    We'll figure something out

    Walk into the neon glow
    Spilling through stained skies above
    No need to change, no need to move
    It's all carefree, we're all carefree

    Pluck the stars from the sky
    Flashes of light suspended in the dark
    I'll stand and watch them fade; histories lost
    There's nothing much left now
    We're losing touch; connection's down
    What? When? Why? How? --can't think
    I'm shattered, bleeding, falling, fading--

    I reach out; light folds around me
    Feel it come in streams; surge through me
    I'm not really here; just watching
    While it swallows me

    It's ok, a little cramped in places but if you can fit the words in without stumbling then all power to you.
