Hey, this is my first post. Haven't been writing for a while, but this is my latest piece. It is part of the 11 minute song I wrote this week.
It is Megadeth/Metallica style and about a kid caught up in the London Blitz in WWII
Shut the curtains, Boy
You'll get us killed
Put that light out, Girl
You murderer
Feeding off leather boots
And paper bread
Fearing the sound of sirens,
The sound of death
Fate is coming
Surely coming
No place to hide
Face death arms held wide
Jerry's on his way she said
Screamed at me to get to bed
I feel safer there
Jerry's on his way she said
I really want to meet him, I begged
You wanna go to hell? She said
And I shook my head
Keep the noise down, Boy
You'll kill us all
No it's not alright
To play outside
Warden's swinging bell
Sends shivers down my back
Crawling up my spine
I can't hold them back
Fate is coming
Surely coming
No place to hide
Face death arms held wide
Jerry's on his way she said
Screamed at me to get to bed
I feel safer there
Jerry's on his way she said
I really want to meet him, I begged
You wanna go to hell? She said
And I shook my head
Fingernails chewed to the bone
We hold our breath
Fearing the sound of sirens,
The scream of death
Warden's swinging bell
Sends shivers down my back
Crawling up my spine
I can't hold them back
War does not determine
Who is right
War only determines
Who is left
(Acoustic)
I danced with death
I won
Lucky for me
But not for some
Our houses flattened
There's nothing more
Snowing ashes
Of the kid next door
The final silence
It says it all
