    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

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

    Hawthorne Heights - Ohio Is for lovers

    Ohio Is For Lovers Lyrics

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

    Something Corporate - Ruthless

    Ruthless Lyrics

    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

    my Konstantine
    my constance

    Something Corporate - Me and the Moon

    Me and the Moon Lyrics

    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.

    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.
