My Constance

[Willstar]

“My Constance”

I blamed my trembling on the cold air
My nerves were shot standing in front of you
I couldn’t coerce the words from my mouth
Even though you’re my reason for breathing
I shook in the wake of your presence
Your image is the only thing I can see
Its beauty captivates my eye every time
As does the sight of you

Your emerald green eyes pierce right through me
Almost as if you’re sending me a message
Screaming “talk to me if you want me”
Your heart’s like a crystal
If it shatters I’ll put it back together
All my reasons have floated away
The reasons not to speak to you
They’re all gone in the blink of an eye
You know you kill me
You kill me well

If you built a city
Would you let me inside?
What would you say
If I took you for a ride?

The stars cry out every time they see me
The nighttime is frightened every time it sees me
I can’t even hide my face away in the shadows
It knows how scared I am

I feel so departed without you by my side
And every time I see you walking alone
I picture myself by your side holding your hand
I dream about the nights I could spend with you
The times I’d place myself by your side
When I see you with someone else
It tears at me from the inside out
I just want to float away like a butterfly

I am a butterfly
Watch as I flutter by
I am a butterfly
Watch as I flutter by
I am a butterfly
Watch as I flutter by
I am a butterfly
I am a butterfly
I am a butterfly

If you’re lost inside
I’ll be there right by your side
‘Cause I find myself in you
If you’re lost inside
I’ll be there right by your side
‘Cause I find myself in you

My Constance

It seems like you used alot of lyrics from Something Corporate and Hawthorne Heights. A lot. Good writing, though.

Dont tell me you signed up just to say that. Dont tell Will how to write. He's an amazing writer. Go read some of his other stuff before you go and say something stupid like that.

hmm, im actually not saying he is a bad writer. I just said that particular thing is very much like other band's lyrics.

Bands = bold
Will = not bold

She Paints me blue - something corporate

She Paints Me Blue Lyrics (http://www.lyricsdomain.com/19/something_corporate/she_paints_me_blue.html)

In vain I blame my trembling on the cold air
I blamed my trembling on the cold air

Hawthorne Heights - Ohio Is for lovers

You know you do you kill me well.
You know you kill me,
You kill me well.

Something Corporate - Ruthless

Ruthless Lyrics (http://www.lyricsdomain.com/19/something_corporate/ruthless.html)

but if i built you a city, would you let me
If you built a city
would you tear it down?
Would you let me inside?

Something Corporate - Konstantine

Konstantine Lyrics (http://www.lyricsdomain.com/19/something_corporate/konstantine.html)

my Konstantine
my constance

Something Corporate - Me and the Moon

Me and the Moon Lyrics (http://www.lyricsdomain.com/19/something_corporate/me_and_the_moon.html)

but i am a butterfly,
I am a butterfly
you wouldn't let me die
Watch as I flutter by
i am a butterfly, i am a butterfly, i am a butterfly
I am a butterfly I am a butterfly I am a butterfly
What would you say If I took you for a ride?
What would you say. If I took you for a ride?

I could pick it apart more if I wanted to, and if you sing the songs, the beat from the song fits with "his" lyrics.


Thanks. :mellow:

What's your point? Ohh wow, on one of many of his songs he might have written something similar. Don't think for a second you can judge him on that. Who cares? No one around here does, youre the only one making a big deal about it.

[Hollow Hearted Fool]

like i said. I never said he is a bad writer. I said that particular song is very much similar.

I've done it before too. Its cause he was listening to songs while writing. You shouldnt do that, cause you dont realize what your doing and you write what other people are sings subcontiously.

Maybe he intended to do that, you know? Maybe as he was listening to the songs he felt "inspired". There is nothing wrong with that.

You know, you just joined today and already are on the bad sides of the staff. Drop the know-it-all attitude fast or get the hell out.

:wth:

I was inspired by SoCo's "Konstantine", but the only lyrics I took on purpose were "You know you kill me/You kill me well" from Hawthorne Heights's "Ohio Is For Lovers". Everything else was a coincidence. :wth:

Thanks for the comments then, I guess. Song meant a lot to me. For it to be ripped apart like I did all that on purpose kind of makes it worthless.
