Take It To The Grave

Your eyes tell a story
Your lips may never say
You can only hide the truth so long
It’ll come back for you one day

You’re looking on the outside
As another page is turned
Still you search for the next best thing
With all the paths you burn

So you can take it to the grave
All the things you can never say
Were no one could ever hear
All your thoughts now coming true
With so much you want to do
The time has past away, so now, your can take it to the grave

You’ll hear the words I’ll say
And go on with no blame
You’ll live your lies, and die with truth
Without feeling any shame

You’re looking on the outside
As another page is turned
Still you search for the next best thing
With all the paths you burn

So you can take it to the grave
All the things you can never say
Were no one could ever hear
All your thoughts now coming true
With so much you want to do
The time has past away, so now, your can take it to the grave

Thanks for the read. Give a listen

I dunno, pretty good sound but I don't really like the vocals. It sounds a bit Team America. The guitar solo doesn't really work either, but I like the drums.

TheCaster 12-03-2007 08:42 PM

uhmm

yeah the vocals suck, i thought the guitar was OK but couldv ebeen better

HotPlop 12-03-2007 08:55 PM

Wasn't very interesting. Honestly, I could go to the local exchange and grab ten cds full of this kind of stuff for under 5 bucks.

The vocals and the guitar weren't very moving or challenging. They congealed a bit. Same goes for the lyrics, I suppose.

Er, uh...no offense. Just being honest.

Patient Dreams 12-10-2007 01:16 PM

Well none the less thanks for the reviews and replies. This was kind of an experiment, maybe gone a rye. Thanks though.

Ace 12-10-2007 06:48 PM

Lyrics need a little work. I liked the direction they're going in, though.
I'll have a listen sometime in the near future.

Patient Dreams 12-26-2007 05:57 AM

Thanks for the read. Hope you get a chance to listen.

eh, the vocals aren't really that satisfying. it makes it seem like you aren't serious when your singing. not really a good thing. nice try though because the lyrics are...a bit off. i like the drums as well. great beats.

Doesn't this share a title with a Fall Out Boy song? and lyrics too for that matter?

under 12-26-2007 04:19 PM

Take This To Your Grave was a fall out boy album in 2003. not sure about the lyrics though.

Hey I was going to say that!



Its alright but the vocals are no Patrick Stump

sleepy jack 12-26-2007 04:29 PM

You both missed the point, fall out boy's lyrics are dull and cliche and so are these, though I have to give her/him points for not having a bunch of bad puns in there.

i will agree that the poem does have good uses of the words they choose. but sometimes a bad pun could be necessary if the person is just beginning and needs feedback on the bad poetry they would be writing.

but this on in particular is different because it uses signs of imagery and emotion to capture the reader.

which i like. a lot!

I think the funniest thing about the fall out boys title comments is that originally this song was posted as "Take it when you go", and "Take it with you", and yes we do read and take into account everyones opinion's. Why else would someone post. The problem was that most replies came in saying the title name confussed them and that it should be named Take It To The Grave. We thought, we drank, and thought some more and decided to change it to see the reaction and well I guess you all know the rest of the story. I missed the fact of Fall-out boys song. Thanks anyways guys for the listen and read. Comments dually noted.

I listened, and I thought it was pretty good. The vocals weren't great, if there was an effect added to the vocals it just made them worse IMO.

It could be made a whole lot better if there was more emotion in it. Also, if there was a building section and a climax somewhere in there, that would make it much better. Good luck!

Hi Patient Dreams,

I didn't listen to the music since others did that. I like the lyrics and the story though. The lyrics are well written. They tell a sad story about time slipping away and ruin - mistakes and consequences over and over again. The structure has a nice poetic feel - good for a song. Very nice.

Patient Dreams 01-22-2008 05:32 AM

Thanks for the comments. You should hear the vocals without anything on them.
