    Default Modern Dracula

    Hello everyone, this is my first post, so bear with me if i'm completely hopeless.

    Basically i'm a young lyricist who just writes as a form of self expression. The people i have shown them to are often impressed by them, so i decided to take my lyrics onlne. I'm keen to hear what you all have to say about them.

    The one that i'll post bellow is my most recent song, entitled Modern Dracula. Basically i was tired of writing about the cliche love or deppression (or commonly both) So, for some unknown reason i chose to write on the concept of Dracula. The song is fairly basic and from two points of view - Dracula's and his haters'

    Anyway, i've jabbered on for long enough. Please leave your feedback.

    For such a neat little monster
    i've made quite a mess
    with echoes for eyes
    and emptiness

    for my heart for my soul
    for the things i once had
    is it astonishing to find
    even angels go bad

    though i cannot breathe
    he has taken my breath
    now living for ever
    seems far worse than death

    as i look at the world
    through my tinted eyes
    i can only hope others
    repeat my demise

    i lay warped and wounded, far beyond repair
    when i look in the mirror i see no one there
    the train track is twisted the buffers are broken
    i'm not really alive, for i'm just a token

    Knocking back bottles
    of stella artois
    come the broken token
    of our modern dracula

    He'll never escape
    with these wings of cement
    trapped forever here in this
    place of torment

    through hell or through joy
    he will always be somber
    he lacks a place a name a face
    a haven even a genre

    is he serving his time
    is he taking his dose
    are we grinding him down
    till he's simple morose

    he lays warped and wounded, far beyond repair
    if he looks in the mirror he'll see no one there
    the train track is twisted the buffers are broken
    is he really alive, or is he just a token

    i lay warped and wounded, far beyond repair
    when i look in the mirror i see no one there
    the train track is twisted the buffers are broken
    i'm not really alive, for i'm just a token
