Jared Leto
emteesmith Dec 2014
This one's for the dreamers
These words for them all
The heroes lived and died someday
Their stories left in war

Hidden, buried inside you'll see
The passion of a soul
This love that keeps a diary
Of a tortured, weathered hole

I won't give up till the soundtrack stops
When the credits are rolling down
Your purpose is to change this world
For the better and the poor

Models of Society
emteesmith Dec 2014
You’ve created a world that doesn’t exist
Rebellion pleasures your soul away
It leads you down this dark road
Hiding behind your masked parade

I know the truth is really out there
But doubt’s the colour of my mind
Please help me see, must I believe it?
They never show us everything

Models of society
Icons to the world
Freedom from responsibility
Desire to be just like you

Striving to be remembered
Immorality is your legacy
Your image is slowly fading
Once loved but now forgotten

The effects are unseen, so real, unleashed
Why’s nobody saying anything?
The effects are unseen, so real, unleashed
Please somebody now scream this thing

The Value of Life
emteesmith Dec 2014
The value of life, is in the quality of time

That's focussed on just being

Not worrying, what's yours or mine


Doing is a curse, and busyness is worse

Don't waste your taste again

Smell the fragrance of a good friend


If what you striving for, is not what you can afford

Then give up now before this all passes by

Stand up straight, wait for the day

Rewards will come when this earth is done


Moments are worth more than the energy we are spending

On simply, making it work

Trading our hours for slaving


You've already missed, you've already lost

The romance of the world

You've already missed, you've already lost

Your life

Take me back
emteesmith Dec 2014
As I look into the mirror, what do I see?
A happy face that reminds me, of who I used to be
It's who I wanna be

I remember always smiling
No painful tears
Love was everywhere a feeling
No adult fears, I'm longing for those years

Take me back to that place, in my mind
To the time of my life, when I
Didn't know why I cried
On your shoulder

To be free to be me

Pride & Prejudice
emteesmith Apr 2016
She's a mystery, sci-fi story
Beaming her thoughts from Mars
She is hiding, a curious heart
From all that's lost

He's on a journey, to the painting
She once drew alone
Her smile ain't fair, but he's waiting
For the train to board

He'll write her a song now‎, her face in the foreground
It's pouring with rain but he don't care
He'll run through the fields‎, trample flowers that steal
The beauty of everything that she has let him bear

If for one moment, their pride is unbroken
Nature will marvel at the masquerade
Disguises have fallen, words are unspoken
History repeats itself again

Wings in a smile
emteesmith Dec 2014
Do you think I am crazy?
My mind's up against the wall
Before you my heart was lazy
Love was a closed door

I wish I could see you fly
I know just why you a mysterious girl
From the clouds, a perfect disguise
You hide your wings in a smile

If you look to the future
Imagine paintings with a song
Soaring over the green grass
Where your hand in mine ain't wrong

In a world where life's not bound by gravity or science fiction
I wonder if eternity
Could kiss away those memories of all the times I felt rejected
Was it never meant to be?

— The End —
