Okay, recently, I started a band called Kunai (we do have Facebook, for those interested)

So tonight, After remembering a book I read called "The Running Man",
I wrote this as my newest set of Lyrics, which I think are my best yet.




"Kunai


Really lost with what to say,
I can't put into words my mind,
The scene is just so strange,
Those flowers all over his body,
The red flowers erupt,
all over his falling self,
As my finger on the trigger,
Squeezes harder still,

Such an eerie thing to see,
The smell of bullets lost on me,
The Shock on thier faces,
Thier faces,

Decorate the halls with flowers of red,
Time just slows, with a gun held in your hand,
Nobody cares for the children of the dead,
Decorate the walls with flowers of red.

My mind escapes to darkness,
My body is just so numb,
The blood is everywhere,
How could I let this happen?
The gun is in my hand,
The flowers everywhere,
the paint dripping to the floor,
The blood is dripping to the floor,

Such an eerie thing to see,
The smell of bullets lost on me,
The Shock on thier faces,
Thier faces,

Decorate the halls with flowers of red,
Time just slows, with a gun held in your hand,
Nobody cares for the children of the dead,
Decorate the walls with flowers of red.

I came home from afar,
My eyes had seen too much oversea,
And my mind still saw the shadows lurking,
the drop of a hat I wasn't me, you see,
They took me to a man in white,
He asked me why I was afraid tonight,
I said I see the flowers, everywhere,
I see the flowers, dripping wet,

Such an eerie thing to see,
The smell of bullets lost on me,
The Shock on thier faces,
Thier faces,

Decorate the halls with flowers of red,
Time just slows, with a gun held in your hand,
Nobody cares for the children of the dead,
Decorate the walls with flowers of red.

Decorate the halls with flowers of red,
Time just slows, with a gun held in your hand,
Nobody cares for the children of the dead,
Decorate the walls with flowers of red.

-Hayden,
-Written to express the pain of Vietnam war hero's after the war.
To those of us who don't know terror, I hope this shows something of the effects of
PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)"

p.S Yes my real name is Hayden XD
Hope you all like the lyrics, and also think about the forgotten war and the soldiers who fought so bravely in it.

This is pretty good, I must say! It reads off very good, to me at least. I must ask what Calvinchun asked; is there a song with the lyrics we could listen to? If so, I would certainly enjoy listening to it.

I am going to rep you for that!

P.S

I have family who have fought in that war, nearly all of them. And now I have serving brothers. It is good to see others who have not forgotten about our soldiers!

(dear me...Rgangsta, you never cease to amaze me with your skills! Reppy!)

@Calvinchun and Crimson - Yes, I have the Chord structure, for both a hard Rock and acoustic version.
I'll post the video of me singing and playing the acoustic version, as soon as I find a good enough mic/Camera to use.

@rgansta - Thanks a heap! I already had a logo for our band, but that's way better! Again thanks!
I'll be sure to fuse it with the original concept as well. Nice job on that!

@Crimson specifically - You had family in the war huh? I think that war was pretty brutal, even just from journals of the soldiers.
I met a Vietnam vet, and he was still in bad shape.
That was another reason I wrote this song.
I really feel sorry for anyone who had to go through that war.
In any case, you should feel proud they were brave enough to fight for your country, you know? Heh

[Calvinchun]

Well i think this is epic you wrote the song with feeling... And i felt proud of it!! :-)
