?POWERS THAT BE?
By Mark Scott

(hard rock style)

v1
In a world of misconceptions
In a world of fucked up times>
In this world we love to hate
We?re  going out of our minds >
It?s the weight on our shoulders
It?s under pressure we crack
the constant search for answers
keeps the monkey on my back

v2
Im just trying to understand this lifetime
But all around me is the blind leading the blind
I just wanna give something back to mankind
Hey whats the point, i wish i could hit rewind

So where's the......justice in life>>>
Guess I?ll have too...take up the fight>>>
No fairy tale off your TV screen
It?s your own damn war, battle hard, find your dreams>

Or you?ll
Be brought down by the powers that be>      
They push and they pull till your down on your knees>
Crying out for help, oh how could this be>>
I?ve been brought down by the powers that be>

v3
I?m just trying to find my way
Just asking for an even break
Gotta get a little fuel for the flame
Do all I can to put an end to the pain>

So where's the......justice in life>>>
Guess I?ll have too...take up the fight>>>
No fairy tale off your TV screen
It?s your own damn war, battle hard, find your dreams>

Or you?ll
Be brought down by the powers that be
They push and pull till ya down on ya knees
Crying out for help, oh how could this bee>>
I?ve been brought down by the powers that be

They are? the powers that be
They take? whatever they need
They walk all over you and mee
cause they r the powers that beee>>

Guitar Solo

So where's the......justice in life>>>
Guess I?ll have too...take up the fight>>>
No fairy tale off your TV screen
It?s your own damn war, battle hard, live out ya dream>

Dont cha
get beat down by the powers that be
No doubt about it, its no conspiracy theory
Crying out for help, oh you can?t even see
I?ve been brought down by the powers that be
Ive been brought down by the powers that be
No doubt about it, no conspiracy theory
Crying out for help, oh you can?t even see
I?ve been brought down by the powers that be

Fuck them, Fuck the Powers that be
Fuck them, Fuck the Powers that be
Fuck them, Fuck the Powers that be
Fuck them. Fuck you, Fuck me

Thanks mate. Please do post mp3:s about the song you wrote 

[Wasted_youth]

are u guys ever scared that ya stuff is gunna get ripped off by some low life who cant write lyrics. thats why the song i put up is done and our bands.  I really wanna share my stuff with u guys even ta get a taste of the response even b4 my band mates do. Thats my only fear, i guess if we wrote it here its dated and on paper so to speak..

what do u all reckon, is it a sinicle way to look at things or just know that they can steal if they want but in the end they r fooling themselves and the world we see what fakes they r.  I know its more than lyrics to be a great band but lyrics are a huge and probably the toughest part.

[Sin Cut]

sounds a bit paranoid mate 

[Wasted_youth]

i guess but people are such assholes in this day n age. im not sayin this board, im just saying in the world. Hell a fully catch chorus can be easily the key to a song and imagine tryin to prove to a multibillion dollar industry when your noone that its yours and someone stole it. id beat there skulls in, my lyrics are about me. I lived them. yeah i am paranoid, its a big deal in  this nasty world.

I once asked a lawyer about lyrics, or texts in general.

Protected or not, what he basically said, was that an unknown author ( or musician) should get their work stolen, for two reasons :

When you can prove you wrote them ( easiest and cheapest way, send yourself a sealed envellope with your lyrics inside, date them and sign, and NEVER open the envellope unless it's for court), you go to court, you win, you get financial damages.

Reason n?2 is that you get exposure.

Dixit the lawyer.

Why not just get a copyright on the text? It's easier than all that mailing stuff.

simply because it's cheaper, some people don't have nough money to regularly pay to protect.

For example :

Every text i protect as an author costs me 30 euros.
And that's JUST for france.

Wow, that's expensive. In India it only costs around $5 to register a copyright and it's valid for 60 years. No problems.

[Jessica]

copyrights here vary in terms of time, you ca nfind 5, 7, 10 years protections. After that time, you have to renew.

This is something I wrote...I'd appreciate your opinions, thx.


Crimson (missing colors)

I thought I got it done
but I'm far away from home
I wanted to fall in love
but I ended up all alone
nobody knows me in my town
but everybody wants to put me down
this song might never dissapear
but you may forget it in two years


 **chorus**

my life must have been interrupted in the making
missing colors in my painting
...Crimson

[Mr. Dick Purple]

Great lyrics man!
Specially the 2 sentences at the end

this song might never dissapear
but you may forget it in two years

Very paranoid

I never post lyrics...... very very rarely but I definitely dont post any of my A+ material. U can never be too careful.

[Sin Cut]

I've written another poem for Axl. Only wish he could read these. They come from the heart.

Sadness and agony inspire my thoughts,
My mind is like the sea
Rolling and swirling around
drowning with thoughts of you.

What provokes my intense desires?
Your smile;
like the first light of day.
Your face;
like a drink when I?m dying of thirst.
I drink until drunk.
Your lips like a
drug I take and take;
Until I can take no more.
Your voice
Pierces through my heart
straight to my soul.

I give myself to you;
My heart is yours to keep
And my eyes are the window
Look into them to see
What love lies beneath
Look, look deeply
Never look away.

The weight of this racks
My consciousness;
If only I could repent
A relentless struggle repeats
I have a never-ending desire for you.
All reasoning has been revoked,
Any acceptance of defeat rejected.

I struggle to forget; I try but fail;
You?re melted into my heart and mind
A part of me for eternity
I catch my breath; my heart hesitates.
I close my eyes to see you again.
Only then can I sleep.

soo..

you got some kind of an obsession for him?

[Axlover]

not exactly the reaction I was hoping for, but I guess should have been expected. Lets just say he inspires me. I wrote these about him, so I guess I am a little preoccupied with him. I wouldn't say obssessed. If you read the poems carefully, I acknowledge this is fantasy that will never come true. 

[GypsySoul]

Seriously, Axlover,  these are NOT the writings of someone with a normal interest/attraction.

Get yourself psychiatric help ....FAST!!!

[Axlover]

Axl is my inspiration, but the poems are exagerated for impact. I do not live my life for him nor do I dream of him every night. Have you ever read poetry before? I'm sure you have. Do you think that everyone who writes of unrequited love and angst needs help? Sorry you got this from my poems. They are supposed to make you feel something, not make you want analyze the writer's intentions.
