I propose a better tactic. Instead of following the weed writing trend, eat a baby THEN write on the back of its recently flayed skin.

when your in need-trouble deep
whos the 1 that helps you sleep
im standing on a platform gazing up in2 the sky
waiting for a train 2 take me 2 paradise

most of us can keep our heads above water
while others are lead 2 the slaughter
could it be a gene passed down from generation
or is it the time of tribulation

life can be tough in all sorts of places
it can fall upon u at anytime
your comfort zone can be crashed n burned
and all your so-called friends turn their backs on you

my train hasnt arrived yet il stand here til it does
ive been patient before now in the name of love
theres a key to be found in society
keep in check with reality

when your in need-trouble deep
have you someone special that helps you sleep.

the whole world is going up in flames
cant say i know whos to blame
back stabbing is rife through the ranks
the man at the bottom whispers thanks
the man up the top with his glass full
is counting his cash while talking bull
power given to a small man will corrupt his little head
and every one close to him will end up poor or dead
hows this possible in this day and age
everybody knows whats written on the next page
how can the people prevent this from happening again
may be we could vote for someone who is actually sane
have you ever seen a sinking ship
with a whole nation screaming on it
knowing they are all going down
know one to save them there all going to drown
its all out there ready to be taken
mans progress the technological age
in all its faults it should not be mistaken
for another begotten page
every colour hits my eyes
the shapes and the sketches
paint flows from my brush
an instant million it fetches
find your way or be left behind searching for a clean nappy
the sun doesnt always shine only those who are truly happy.

If it's poetry: Could use more then just some work, but I don't hate it.

tears falling down my face
so hard being a part of the human race
have no home im in a strange place
a very long journey to fast a pace

cant decide on where to go
disabling me got me down low
pain n suffering sure to folloe
all these years alive with nout to show

out of my head sick of this
my life turns n twists
out of my head all this crap
feel like im falling without a saftey strap

nomore sunshine nomore joy
had so many play me like a toy
giving up my will to live
death is a blessing nomore to give

now all my blood rushing to my head
wrists cut blood all over the bed
goodbye today no more tomorrows
goodbye to all my sorrows

now im cold stoned dead on my bed
covered in my favourite colour red.

Reading this thread, it makes me realize how hard it is to be a good songwriter. Trying to be new and creative while not being ridiculous at the same time. It's a tough job to do alright.

Sadly, on the generic **** gets promoted in the mainstream music industry anyways. To promote healthy growth of lyrics, it's best if you stick to the evolution of your own ideals, I'd say. That way, even if the lyrics aren't cutting edge, they can stay organically true. That way, they'll be at least better than ****.

youve made my life complete
the air i breathe is so sweet
your happiness is my one desire
my love for you is as hot as a fire

when we hold each other close
and kiss the night away
your the woman i love the most
im the happiest man alive today

your smile so beautiful your eyes are to
when your eyes meet mine just cant deny you
whats mine is yours what ever i can give
to show you i love you your my reason to live

my luvly my true love
angels carried you to me from above
as soon as i saw you it was meant to be
all my heavy burdens laid to rest
when you are close to me.

:couldnt tell you what it was, that first drawn me to you
may be it was all the love, i had and i was, waiting for someone like you
to come into my life, and to stay a while
the sound of that music, you were playing that day
your soft angelic voice drifted my way
remember sitting down overlooking the stage
knowing at once i had turned over a new page

i couldnt, quite bring myself to walk over to you,
even though i knew i had to ,before the night was through
couldnt let you leave without, giving you my name
address and number hoping you feel the same
oh how wonderful you made me feel ,that first kiss
got to tell you now, it was bliss
were still together even now shes always had a hold on me
my love for her is as strong now and forever it shall be.

]into the darkness where i dwell
i feel happier here at peace with myself
i took the bulb out so no accidents can happen
am i alone ,i dont feel alone.
in dead silence ,my head feels heavy and my eyes feel sore
i just cant bear to see anyone anymore.
when day breaks and the rays of light pierces through
i feel sad so terribly sad that im still here with you
i have to venture out today
not looking forward to it at all
wish i lived next door, to an offi
walkings a real bore, but first il have a coffee
not that it wakes me or its good for me in anyway
my eyes dont open much i hate the light of day
well il suffer in silence cus everyone thinks im fine
il treat myself with the words itl just take time
and well time i hate it, please take it away
dont bother me with your questions i cant answer none today
yeh ive been down the offi now ,i feel like a sleep.
im not one for self pity, for me it doesnt go down well
just need space to heal in this well built shell.
im facing it whats the worst that could happen
a head on collision what in my room well stranger things happen at sea.
