War And Emo...  

Posted by Jay Chua

Have you all heard about Red Jumpsuit Apparatus? Yes or no, it doesn't matter. There is a song by the name of Godspeed which brings a deep and emo meaning to war.. Those especially who learned under Mrs. Ramani will recall back those war poems we learned. Its something like "The Man He Killed".. LOL... Well here are the lyrics, super emo song! =D


It's January 1970
Do you remember me
You put me on a boat across the sea, 
In the name of victory
But much to my surprise when I arrived
There was no welcoming committee
Instead there was some men for me to kill
And now I see all this is all too real

Then I saw him standing with a bayonet
And as I ran towards him
He hardly broke a sweat
When I took his life
He fell to his knees
And as his eyes began to fade
He whispered softly

Godspeed this letter away from here
I sealed it with my tears and stamped it with my fears
And Godspeed this letter away from you
My work down here is through
I'm on my way to better days and so are you

And in his pocket there I saw a picture of his children and his family
And I began to realize this person I despised in actuality
Was not much different from myself
We prob'ly could have taught each other many things
And now I know it's much too late 
Although I couldn't hesitate
I checked his gun and his chamber was empty

Then I saw him standing with a bayonet
And as I ran towards him
He hardly broke a sweat
When I took his life
He fell to his knees
And as his eyes began to fade
He whispered softly

Godspeed this letter away from here
I sealed it with my tears and stamped it with my fears
And Godspeed this letter away from you
My work down here is through
I'm on my way to better days and so are you

Ooh we know not what we've done
And ooh we know not what we've done

Godspeed this letter away from here
I sealed it with my tears and stamped it with my fears
And Godspeed this letter away from you
My work down here is through
I'm on my way to better days and so are you


Emo right? haha.. Well, I'm quite emo and its been ages since I've comed up with poems or raps of my own. I'm glad I still have the talent after how many months of not using my brains to its full capacity.. xD Here goes.. 

The title is called "You"

I saw you standing there staring at me that day,
I could not move but stare away,
As I thought to myself and walk your way,
It seems that I have nothing much to say,
Saying 'Hi', long time no see will suffice,
As many eyes are watching as if I were a suprise.

You kept looking at me which made me flinch,
At the very lightest look or sparkle that both our eyes had;
You had known me for quite some time now but;
But I still don't know if I am just a friend to you or something more,
If only I have the guts to tell you how I feel, If only, if only...

But still, I thought to myself this;
So what if you know how I feel a bout you?
Would your preception about me change?
Can we be together?
One big argument is that the things in life;
Is it all controlled by our actions or is it Destiny?
All these questions seem so tough and the answers are even harder to find...

Yes, no doubt I'm in the liking of you,
Even if I express myself,
I bet you would not feel the same,
Because;
Because I really don't know how you feel inside...
If I'm too self concious, please tell me,

I still wanna know you,
Know you better,
To love you in the future,
So please dont leave me hanging;
Because I really cannot hold on to my feelings any longer.

The stare, what was the stare for?
The flinch, everything you do...
The looks in your eyes, as if you are asking me to be your guardian angel
So please, oh please, tell me what to do.. :D

Until then, this is Jason, signing out. God bless and take care people! ^^ =D :D
