Duarte Miguel - The Fall

So this is my most recent song, it's called "The Fall" and it's devided in 15 Chapters and has lots of Easter Eggs. I dought that anyone here will read till the end but, let me start by describing this song. It's a big progressive rock song, it's the story of a boy who goes to a new school and finds himself in the top of the world, then he falls in love with a girl in his class he meet 10 years ago and he does about everything to make the girl smile, even impossible things that no one would ever do for her. Still, she doesn't care about him, his parents got divorced from one day to another, his dad starts to smoke and drink and his grandpa gets very sick and dies. On top of this, the girl this boy likes fells in love with another boy that caused alot of damage in this boy's past. So this boy starts planning his last chance and starts writing a song for this girl, he asks to borrow a guitar from a friend, learns to play the best he can till that day and the song finishes with him waiting for this moment...

I usually do covers for my lyrics...so, here it is: http://skattereddreams.tumblr.com/image/83098417377

Lyrics:

Chapter 1 - Brave New World

The sun was rising
The gates were open
A new life breathing
Chapter's open again

The first weeks came
Sticked to those I knew
They left without a trace
Had to find the unknown

When I found my brothers
My partners in crime
When I met good people
I could believe in

Then I met this girl
Awkwardly my kind
Reminding were she went
I just would go behind

A perfect life to live in a fully perfect world
A perfect day I lived one by one

This is how it all began
This was why it all must stay
This was only what I could say

Day and night
We would talk
Good times
Bad choises
But I could stick around

Dusk and Dawn
We would meet
The world
Was our home

Spikes were coming like fire
All around the same number
Sirens in the distance
What mattered was the life

This was the time
The heaven's climax
This was the time
I miss those days

A perfect life to live in a fully perfect world
A perfect day I lived one by one

Chapter 2 - End Of The String

The perfect balance
Cherished everyone
Trusted them, Loved them
Called them friends

In my lifetime
I never felt this way before
Found a family
Found a home in their hearts

There's a road
It took me there
There's a sign
Only some might see

There's a sky
Pure like no one cares
There's the wind
Too week to pick away

Warm and solid
Like the lights of the streets
Confidence
Better it couldn't be

Oh, sweet home
You don't know how it feels
To find the old ones
To let them be

There's a road
It took me there
There's a sign
Only some might see

There's a sky
Pure like no one cares
There's the wind
Too week to pick away

I reached
The end of the string
I thought
The life was perfect that way
I knew
My mind I could give
I felt
The pieces fitted

The horizon
In a place where wars were far away
Where freedom was free
Where love was our change

In this place
Where the world seemed large those days
At the point of the string
From where you can't flee
I had my whole world in front of me

Chapter 3 - And Her Eyes Were Green

Days went by
And I still
Watched you from stalker's view

Watched your life
Learned
Knew what you were

Knew
You were sad
A poor sad little girl

But still
I didn't know
I didn't found who you were

Who were you
Lady Marmalade?
You took my heart
Why you did that?

Tried so hard
To find about you
Let my soul
Fly to that land

Who were you
Lady Marmalade?
Your eyes
Enchantment medusa

Emerald's Green
A hole in my shell
A passage way
To our past

Days went by
I never cared
For the talk

Nights went by
I never tried
To belong in you

Weeks went by
And I contemplated
Your underrated eyes

Months went by
Feed my heart
To your light

Was that love?
The question
I remember asking myself
Was it real?
Was it just a dream?
Was it reality
Or just an ilusion?

Was that love?
The question
In my mind I internalized
But the pressure
Affection
I tried
Couldn't denie

Days went by
Fell for you
Never said goodbye

Chapter 4 - Thoughts

But you, you couldn't really hide
The inner pain you felt day by day
But I, I saw, in your face, I recognized
And the shine of all sorrow in your eyes

I couldn't denie
The perfect sun was coming on my way
I couldn't help but warm myself with it

I tried so hard
Was I the one who cleaned your last tear?
The one who extinguished the flame

The darkness surrounded my dreams
Of a life with a family
Where we could travel around the world in circles

In circles, kept the dream alive
Fed the flame who was dead
Falled in my harms for the last time, let you fall
Let you fall from the sky
Let you fall
Let you fall from the sky

Cassandra and Mark
One day they might know
If it died or survived
To the wave of consequences, the unknown
Holding on to the photos
To the memories
And rememberances

But this is just a future
An unknown kind of fate
Chills in my skin since then
Since then I turned myself
I was coming home
I was dreaming loud
I was killing myself

I remember
The only thing I cared...
The only thing I cared was your smile
I remember
Regreting every single action
Because all seamed in vain
All I could give, I gave
And none was given back

I couldn't denie
The perfect sun was coming on my way
I couldn't help but warm myself with it

I tried so hard
Was I the one who cleaned your last tear?
The one who extinguished the flame

The darkness surrounded my dreams
Of a life with a family
Where we could travel around the world in circles

In circles, kept the dream alive
Fed the flame who was dead
Falled in my harms for the last time, let you fall
Let you fall from the sky
Let you fall
Let you fall from the sky
Let you fall
Let you fall from the sky
Let you fall
In the harms of the fallen

Chapter 5 - Rainy Day

I would never let you lie
In the ground of a rainy day
I would never let you cry
"Please, tomorrow I want a smile in that face"

Do you remember
When I told you this?
Do you remember
The day after, what you did?

Do you remember
The first winter day?
Do you remember?
Your sorrow was far away

The days changed
The sky went dark
And the rain started to fall

The days changed
A silver lining
You were in the black clouds

The days changed
And that time of the year came

The days changed
And again I tried my best

The days changed
And hours I spent

The days changed
To reach perfection

Do you remember
How grateful you were?
Do you remember
I wasn't able for any more?

Do you remember
How happy you were?
Do you remember?
You were the only one

In my head
I was haunted
How could I buy you?
I was turning into a monster

In my mind
I was haunted
Why? Why?
Why all this pain?

In my head
I was haunted
How could I buy you?
I was turning into a monster

In my mind
I was haunted
Why? Why?
Why all this pain?

Chapter 6 - Inner Pain

Did you know?
When you bite an hook
It's impossible to run

Did you know?
That feeling
It's like spikes of poison

Did you know?
It won't go away
It won't disappear

Did you know?
The regression
Count from ten to one

Breathed a new life
All I saw
All I wanted
Forget about you
About them, about me

A perfect life to live in a fully perfect world
An ilusion, not written, not carved in stone

Did you know?
The poison affects a zone
It paralises

Did you know?
Sometimes the devil
Chooses someone to let it go

Did you know?
It's like a cage
Of poisonous touches

Did you know?
It hides inside
And it eats you alive

Breathed a new life
All I saw
All I wanted
Forget about you
About them, about me

A perfect life to live in a fully perfect world
An ilusion, not written, not carved in stone

Ignoration
Combining with his wish to kill my grandady
It only results in a paralised soul
Conjuration
Of a new disgrace every day since it all began

Lying in my sheets of sweat nightmares
Living in the air of the midnight sun
Lurking in the shadows of myself
Falling from the stairs I built on my own

Lying in my sheets of sweat nightmares
Living in the air of the midnight sun
Lurking in the shadows of myself
Falling from the stairs I built on my own

Chapter 7 - Zones Of Danger

Night after night
Weeks without sleep
Day after day
Nothing new

Coming home
Writing some sheets
Coming School
Writing again

Coming home
Stuff of my lips
Coming School
Avoiding the sin

Coming home
Writing some sheets
Coming School
Writing again

All
It was all
All and all, for months
On and on

All
It was all
All and all, for months
On and on

Written was the piece
Of instrumental fire
A metafor to our friendship
It should rise

Written was the piece
I spent on the 14th of the 9th
One month after, you heard
Threw me in the shelf

The Green Eyed Butterfly
Was that the name?
Was my life, where I tried to give my best

The Green Eyed Butterfly
When I told
Of the ten Winters, gone after we met for the first time

It was my last attempt
I tried to internalize
It was my point of no return
Back to square one

I promised myself
I would not cry for you anymore
The promise I couldn't keep
It all charged on me

I was in a zone of danger
I would plan my way out
I was in a zone of danger
My silent cry haunted me so much

I was in a zone of danger
I would plan my way out
I was in a zone of danger
I rised a smile, I forgot the past

Chapter 8 - Canon Ball

After all those months
Under working my happiness
After all those months
When my priority was you

After all those months
I was setting myself free
After all those months
I saw the door

I just tried to open
I could not move it
I tried harder
And I felt the lock breaking free
My first step in the direction of the light
But suddently, a dramatic turn on the events

The family was gone
The ones who made me
The ones who gave me home
The life was hard
The fights were constent
I could not live like that any more
Any more...

And I realised
When I tried to set myself free
You were more important than I could ever think
And I realized
You were already far away
Far from myself, you were my healing

Can someone explain me
How could I always be there
And you never cared

Can someone explain me
Why I'm probably behind
Someone, who wouldn't do half what I did?

The family was gone
The ones who made me
The ones who gave me home
The life was hard
The fights were constent
I could not live like that any more

For a moment
I thought about doing what I considered bad
For a moment
I dreamed with knife in my chest
For a moment
I thought my salvation was there, but it wasn't
And now my boat is far away, away from the shore

"I was his conscience, all the time
He was turning into an animal
A beast of an horrible dimension
A monster, something he never was
During his lifetime
He was considered by many
The most wonderful kid
They told him he was very special
How can a very kind heart turn into a cold freezing heart?
How can love be responsible by this?
One thing was certain...
He didn't wan't to blame her
Never, he never blamed her
That means there was still a flickering flame of kindness..."

Chapter 9 - Another Day Of Lost Control

My kindness was not far away
My day dreaming I would copy to the paper
The journey of life is just equal this way
Not only for me but for everyone

But taken all my goodness
My mind freezed to dead
And in the day when I lost control
Many of them left
Turned into fetid beasts

It was time
Changed the velvet blue sky
It was gone
Now it was just a rainy day

It was time
Twisted evil mind
Blood rains in darkness and hate

I thought you would be my guide
Out of this storm
You never cared, you never will
At least I felt
I knew my chances were gone
All of them, I might try once again
The future is as certain
As the day of our death

In that day
I revealed my last face
Forgotten in a corner of my mind
Peaceful, against my will
I did what I would never do

It was time
Changed the velvet blue sky
It was gone
Now it was just a rainy day

It was time
Twisted evil mind
Blood rains in darkness and hate

It was time
Changed the velvet blue sky
It was gone
Now it was just a rainy day

It was time
Twisted evil mind
Blood rains in darkness and hate

Chapter 10 - Reich Of The Beautiful and Rich

Since then I tried to change
My mind far away still hides
Only shows up when it's hunting
Against my will

Since then I tried to be
As good as I possibly can
Just used myself and my ability
Just tried to set myself free again

Future was uncertain
As it was supposed to be
It's just the wait of the time

The perfect world
Utopia
Nirvana on my eyes
Perfection in yours
Impossible to reach
Journey to the garden of dreams

The garden of life
Lightning
Beauty on my eyes
The dream of your being
Impossible to reach
Journey to the perfect reich

Isn't it all what I want?
Isn't it just a dream shared by most of them? Away...
Isn't it all what we want?
Isn't it just a dream of love and zero hate? Away...

Most kill to acomplish
Most rape for the pleasure
Most torture for nothing
All they want, they get
All I want, forget

This is what my hate of this world is made off
People that feed it and always end up winning
This is what my non believing is made off
People that only see you by what you are not

In this society
I would change
My mind and soul and talent
For a chromed car

In this society
I would change
My mind and soul and talent
For green toylet paper

In this society
In this world I can not live in
In this society
One thing I wanted and it was never true

In this society
In this world I can not live in
In this society
Air, air, air, Dreams

Chapter 11 - Village

So I chosed
One to follow and the others to leave behind
So I closed
Closed myself in my solitary shell
So I chosed
To make you happy one last time
So I'm still killing myself
I hope not, oh

I grabbed what I needed
Salvation, Destruction
Rebuilding my heart
With new pieces
Cuz old ones were already left behind

One last I wrote
Spent the days maximizing each detail
One passage at the time
For you, for us, for them
For the world to be a better place
For me, for you, for all

Surrounded with stone walls
Only If we wanted we could be free
Everyone just gives what they have
For goodness of the young
And peace of the dead

Lying on the ceiling
My reality colides
With the one I create
In my dreams

Lying on the ceiling
So high I can't reach
The perfect world
Formerly lived

One last I wrote
Spent the days maximizing each detail
One passage at the time
For you, for us, for them
For the world to be a better place
For me, for you, for all

Surrounded with stone walls
Only If we wanted we could be free
Everyone just gives what they have
For goodness of the young
And peace of the dead

To the mystic place of desired lust
All my actions away, I carry on
To the underworld of my mind

To the mystic place of love and dreams
All myself I carry to the center
To the lightest corner of my soul

To the mystic place of desired lust
A sin considered but just a sin
Nothing more to worry on the ride

To the mystic place of love and dreams
Smiles and Kids playing in the streets
Without fear of the outside world

Chapter 12 - And The Story Bleeds

"Hey, time to go to school"

And the blood now runs more than ever
From my eyes, from my soul
And love, unmasked in pink love and affection
Is a thief, an animal on his own
In your eyes, I see the garden's door

And the story never told
When a boy meets a soul
And the story's bleeding words
Cut him in half, bleed on him

I am me!

My mind was one side
My body was another
How can I live on like this?
The black tip was broken

The story that was never told
The future of all untold stories
The boy behind the vest
The girl behind the veil

Unfinished
Unfinished
Each second a detail

Unfinished
Unfinished
Driving me crazy from times to times
From times to times

Unfinished
Unfinished
Cuts and wounds

Unfinished
Unfinished
Crying my lonely imagination
Imagination

Why?
Bleed for me!
Why?
Bleed for her!
Heal yourself, don't let it go
Don't let it fall
Don't let it fall

Chapter 13 - Lies Under The Skin (Question Mark)

Maybe it's me who's driving nuts
Maybe it's me who's wrong in the world
It was me who tried to denie
It was me who tried to forgive

If there was something to forgive
If there was something to forget
If there was someone to love for something to regret

If there was a light in the tunnel
If there was even an entrance in the dark
Where I could find who I was and who I am
Where I could say my last goodbye

The time will come
To fall with you
I try to quit, and denie
I can't it's just stronger than me
Stronger than us
Stronger than the world

Chapter 14 - He Takes And Kills

My first step
The realms of death
The monster inside me

Defeated him
He's on my way again
He already ruined my past

Oh sweat Marmalade
So far you got
So far you got to lost now

Oh sweat Marmalade
Will you ever give me a chance?

Oh sweat Marmalade
So far you are
So lost you know

Oh sweat Marmalade
He took and killed the last

I just feel like
You ran away
Worst, with someone
In the past, my enemy

It was the time when we felt right
He wants you for possession
I guess I know him well
My failure and your ruin

I just tried to make your life
An endless kaleidoscope
I just fell like my attemps
Were all thrown away

Throw the key
In the well
I would dive
He would walk away
He can better than you
And when he does
I'll not be there at your stand

Throw your heart
To the sky
I would learn to fly
He says goodbye
And I still am less than him

Oh sweat Marmalade
So far you got
So far you got to lost now

Oh sweat Marmalade
Will you ever give me a chance?

Oh sweat Marmalade
Why you bought my soul
And sold to the last?

Oh sweat Marmalade
He took and killed the last

I just want to say
Before all the chances are gone
If my last is going to the pipe
You should be the one saying goodbye

I just want to say
I really just felt like home
In your eyes, with you
With you inside my mind

You dominated
I can't believe you trade my work
For a loser in desguise

You dominated
I don't know why I keep blaming you
It was me, maybe, it was all about me

I was a prisioner
I became the guard
He was the criminal
He became the god

I was a prisioner
I became the guard
He was the criminal
He became the god

Chapter 15 - Oh, Sweat Last Chance

"Here I am again,
Do you remember me?
His conscience...
He is falling apart
Apart from his world
He forgot those who loved him
He just can think about her
He writes everyday
Hopping one day, she might see
She might read, but he really has only one last chance
The day comes..."

I hope for a bright day
For the smell of the morning in your face
I hope for a bright day
For the leafs to fly with wind, away

I hope for a bright day
For the saturated colors of the nature
For your eyes, for your soul
Peaceful and refresh, peaceful and refresh

A perfect life to live in a fully perfect world
A perfect day I hope one by one

A perfect life to live in a fully perfect world
A perfect day I hope one by one

And the stories ending now
And I just have to wait for the worst
I'll just end cleaning my conscience
I'll just leave knowing I was a man

Do you know anyone else
With the guts to say goodbye this way?
I'll just pretend that you were never real
Or can I be in your heart?

End of misery, end of pain
End of hate, end of the darkness in my head
No more blood, no more crying for you
No more lying, no more sorrow, no more desguises

A perfect life to live in a fully perfect world
A perfect day I hope one by one

A perfect life to live in a fully perfect world
A perfect day I hope with you!

I will read all of it and comment in length. Just not right now. Got a doctor's appointment.

Ok, thank you very much, I must say, I've been reading some of your lyrics and I liked it.
