[RE] Lyrics challenge. | When you were young and your heart was an open book, I used to look at you and marvel at the youthful naïvety
with which you fell for all my pranks and wisecracks. Your gullibility was only equaled by your beauty and that
was what made me stay with you.
But you grew older, your beauty got traded in for wariness and s... | 2 | 0 | 11 | 484 |
[RE] Lyrics challenge. | Got hair in a girl. I guess I gotta get it out? I guess I gotta trim up. This was a fucking mistake, regardless. I'm done. I'm out, I'm up, I - fuck. I do want her, but now if I keep going she'll overthink it. I'm overthinking it. I'm totally done. Plus she's a blonde. Fuck blondes. Fuck Hannah. Fuck fuck fuck, no. 'He... | 2 | 0 | 11 | 485 |

[RE] Lyrics challenge. | I laid down, I drank the poison then I passed the fuck out. I was sick of everything that was happening in my life. School, my family, my friends, my relationships. I needed to get away, and a bottle of Jack seemed like it could comfort me.
I awoke to the sound of some angrily pounding on my door. I got up reluctantl... | 1 | 0 | 11 | 487 |
[RE] Lyrics challenge. | "Alright, stop! Collaborate and listen!", my normally mousey assistant, Donna Joe, ejaculated: Her legal pad shaking with barely contained rage. I felt bad for her, but she had been the one to insist I take my brother's case. Now we were all 3 of us in the fryer, and the cops would want nothing more than to light some... | 2 | 0 | 11 | 488 |
[RE] Lyrics challenge. | I hear the train coming its rolling around the bend. Its distant clatter the only back drop to these empty days of nothingness. Other than the train there are very few noises left in my life. There used to be lots of noise. Cars rushing, shouting, and little laughs all floating in through open windows. City noises so d... | 1 | 0 | 11 | 489 |
[RE] Lyrics challenge. | "Hey, I'll move out of the way for you."
I’m so close to giving up. It's sometime in the first hours of morning. After receiving yet another call for a favor, it finally seemed time for me to speak up. And now we've been “discussing” for what seems like forever. Fighting, really. Going back and forth over the same poi... | 1 | 0 | 11 | 490 |
[RE] Lyrics challenge. | “Be a simple kind of man.” the reverend declared loudly, as he pulled a blazing yellow satin kerchief from inside his jacket pocket to wipe off a bead of sweat from his forehead. The kerchief appeared to be custom made for his identically hued suit. The reverend's suit looked as if the material had been woven from the ... | 1 | 0 | 11 | 491 |
[FF] Mad World | A man standing on a desolate beachhead, the light across the horizon is blinding, he can't even make out the waves. As he struggles to see through the blinding light he becomes aware of the crowd around him, he screams but no sound comes out as he gets closer he sees each person is expressionless, not a defining featur... | 4 | 0 | 13 | 492 |
[FF] Mad World | I've been on a bit of a singularity/scifi-ish bend lately, this is also one of my favourite songs and the challenge has given me an idea. Not sure if I am going to be able to do it justice, but here goes (bear with me if it seems unrelated, I may wind up posting episodes -- I hope it'll come together).

[FF] Mad World | A lifetime of war. In his life he knew nothing else. At 54 he felt like an old man. He *was* an old man, most didn’t make it to this number. It wasn’t something he was thankful for. Around the time of his conception the happy world of his parents was shattered by the war. Of course everyone at first thought that the wa... | 2 | 0 | 13 | 494 |
[FF] Mad World | [Okay, I wrote this in a couple of hours when I had just woken up. It was a quick write, so it's probably sloppy. I'm a first timer, so please go easy...]
"Safety Sellars", his friends called him. On the surface, Paul Sellars lived up to that moniker: he was the kid who always wore his bike helmet; the teenager who wo... | 3 | 0 | 13 | 495 |
[FF] Mad World | A dull spine tingling whine brings me to the front of my conciousness. I shiver as the thin cold air reaches every corner of my lungs. Why is it so bright? All around me are familiar faces. Dammit, it happened again. Who are these people?
I sit up out from under the cover of the synthetic sleeping bag. I wince as my h... | 3 | 0 | 13 | 496 |
[FF] Mad World | He was dimly aware, through the cloudy haze of opium, that something was wrong. His eyelids drooped, his vision blurred – he heard somewhere in the darkness a distant pulse and knew it at once to be his heart. His body contorted to the odd waves of pleasure and relaxation that periodically gripped him. Yet somewhere in... | 2 | 0 | 13 | 497 |
[FF] Mad World | The exam room was not particularly warm, but Roland felt the trickle of sweat running off his shoulder blades and trickling down the funnel of his spine. The long protection jacket was left on him, the synthetic cloth coarse against his skin. Embedded within the jacket, plates of metal weighing down heavily.
*Can't ... | 1 | 0 | 13 | 498 |
[FF] Mad World | I picture a man, on his deathbed, thinking of the days gone by, deciding whether it was a life well lived.
"The irony. I am dying, but I feel like a child on Christmas day. I look around, and see so many that don't appreciate the lack of a deadline. In these last few moments, I find myself a drunk romantic, sipping on... | 2 | 0 | 13 | 499 |
