Nobody
Max Vale Dec 2016
Why does no-one notice me?
Its not like I'm not here.
They don't stop and say hello,
They just walk right through me.
Why am I never noticed?
Why does no-one care?
I've always been alone,
Since the day I was born.

Inspiration
Max Vale Feb 2017
I am a being that can take any form,
Like that old tree frog.
Or that bright neon cat,
An ancient forgotten mat.
A striped zebra,
A spitting llama.
A singing river,
A long lost lover.
A hopeful journey,
A popular story.
The bright yellow sun,
To the mystifying moon.
A stinging rose thorn,*
*From all of these a story is born.
Get inspired ;)

Dance On Me
Max Vale Jan 2017
I'll be here whenever you need me,
I'll be here when you're down.
I'll be here for you to pour your feelings,
I'll take them and I won't drown.

Let your emotions flow onto me,
Set your mind and spirit free,
And once you're done,
*You can dance on me.

Post-Apocalypse
Max Vale Dec 2016
The rumored end is over,
Its happened and its true,
The apocalypse came and took over,
And of course it came too soon.

The world is left in ruins,
Not a single creature is left,
The Earth itself is confused,
And the God is not impressed.

However one thing remains,
It is seen alone on an empty plain,
It stands on a field so beautiful and true,
A white flower just for you.

Burn Up The Sky
Max Vale Dec 2017
Storm in a bottle,
Hurricane at large.
Winds at full throttle,
Blizzard hits harsh.

Feel the music in your heart,
Feel the beat of the drums.
Let your outer shell tear apart,
And your inner spirit hum.

Unleash your beast,
Fireworks at ready.
Soul unleashed,
Soldier's steady.

Together we will thrive,
We will not die but survive.
So roar your battle cry,
And let's burn up the sky.
Let your anger spark passion and your passion spark victory :)

Raise Your Cups
Max Vale Aug 2017
Singing rock to the top of our lungs,
With sweet drink on the tip of our tongue.
What we have done its history,
Raise your cups to our victory!

Drowning in bottles of fame,
No embarrassment - no shame.
Here we are in the halls of glory,
Raise your cups to our victory!

Now the big party is screaming our name,
The whole audience is going nuts.
Nothing out there can stand in our way,
So raise your cups to the worlds greatest - us!

I love you Lacy thank you singing this song to me as a kid,
I hope you dont mind the tweeks :)

And somebody's taken your glee.

For you to blame it on me.

The Lighthouse
Max Vale Jan 2017
A shining beacon full of light,
Its light guides the ships away,
Defends ships from the rocks at night.
So the ships may sail another day.
Light + House = Lighthouse

Alone
Max Vale Mar 2018
Walking down these folded roads,
Alone, Alone, Alone.
Wishing there was somewhere to go,
Home, Home, Home.

Darkness is the only road I know,
Alone, Alone, Alone.
Graveyard of broken dreams I follow,
Home, Home, Home.

No kindness I've seen just remorse,
Alone, Alone, Alone.
Depart from this life I,
Go, Go, Go

Back Of Beyond
Max Vale Jan 2017
You left me the way I was,
In the middle of nowhere.
The back of beyond,
And of course you didn't care.
It took me ages to come out alive,
I've brushed with death,
And survived.
So no matter how hard you push me,
Down the hole,
Or off a cliff.
*You'll never hurt or destroy my soul
**** those haters and the people who let you down, You must never give up. If you do they win and you lose. And who wants to lose?

Dreams in Reality
Max Vale Dec 2016
My world is a circle wrapped by your love,
You bring to peace like a gentle white dove,
Your heart is glowing and radiant as can be,
Whenever I see you i feel full of glee.
It like I'm being set free.

So why not bring your happiness to the world?
Why does it have to only exist in my dreamworld?

Broken Glass
Max Vale Feb 2017
I'm a piece of glass,
You may call me a window.
I reflect the sun and propel the wind,
I let you see through me.
But why does everyone want to break me?
I swear its soo satisfying to see glass break...

I Ain't Giving Up On You
Max Vale Dec 2017
We haven't got long left,
Our time here is limited.
We may have never met,
But I'm glad we did.

You may have given up,
On life itself.
Why should you?
When you haven't fought that battle yourself?

I am here today,
Because of who  was yesterday.
What you are tomorrow,
Is what you make of today.

So I ask you once more,
Do you want to die too?
Because until then I don't,
Cuz I ain't giving up on you.
:)
Max Vale Nov 2017
Banished to an island,
Of desertion and isolation.
Running form the wolves,
Of fear and alienation.

The ghosts still haunt me,
The lions still hunt me.
All in hope that I lose,
Then hell breaks loose.

Broken, hurt
Destroyed.
Hopeless, lost,
Terrified

I'm on my own on this island,
I've got loads of things to fear.
But I will always look to the future,
For the light that shines is always here.
Stay strong

Ashes
Max Vale Mar 2017
You tried to burn me to ashes,
You threw me onto the fire.
You tried to erase my memories,
But sorry, I survived.

Go With The Waves
Max Vale Feb 2017
The waves are rolling,
To the shore and back.
The ocean is roaring,
The waves launch one last attack.

The sun goes down,
The sky explodes.
I let the waves carry me,
And followed the ocean flow.

Wherever they take me,
I will find my muse.
Hey it doesn't matter if I die,
I've got nothing to lose.
Go With The Waves - Aqua Rose

Potential
Max Vale Feb 2017
My teacher said I had a lot of potential,
My friends thought I was hiding talent.
A few years later I soon found out,
That I could have been,
A fearsome dragon,
A blazing phoenix,
A savage shark,
A true leader.
*But I didn't.

God Gave Us Wings
Max Vale May 2017
God gave us wings,
So we can learn how to fly.
Must God take them away again,
Cos we're causing people to die?
The bombers... :(

She's Keepin' Me Alive

She's the song that keeps me alive,
She's the reason why I don't wanna die.
She always warms my heart.
I'm prayin' we'll never be apart.

We Go Drowning Together
Max Vale Dec 2017
Seashell shores,
Ocean blue waves.
Dancing fires,
Lustful airwaves.

We go through the woods,
We go through the river.
We go down the deepest lake,
Till we're lost and gone away.

We know we cant stay up,
The only way we can go is down.
Once your fears have gone away,
And you're sitting by the sundown.

I don't care what people say,
Just survive another day.
And then once you do,
**We Can Go Drowning Together
No one is going down alone. If you're going down i'm coming with you. At the end of the day guess I'll see you all in hell. I don't care at least we're together.

Joy

Joy
Joy is the greatest feeling,
One can ever feel.
Y**ou feel happy and you know it will heal.
Joy can heal my heart, where words alone can't.

Gentle Push
Max Vale Jan 2017
If you gave me a gentle push,
I'll travel further.
If you gave me a gentle push,
I'll travel faster.
If you gave me a gentle push,
I'll travel quicker.
Give me a headstart in life

Fog
Max Vale Feb 2017
Fog
The mist creeps up on you,
Like a long forgotten grudge.
And hey **,
It'll bite you like a savage foe.

You can't see through its face,
It's body blocks your smell.
When will you escape?
Only time will tell.

The Girl Next Door
Max Vale Feb 2017
She's a good girl,
She never truants.
She keeps to herself,
And minds her own business.

She never swears,
She never gets mad.
She always combs her hair,
She never argues with her dad.

But she sneaks out night,
To be with her friends.
She parties all night,
But she leaves before it ends.

She's a good girl,
Anyone can see that.
She's her dad's love,,
But who could stop her from a little bit of fun?
To the girl next door

Rocks of Beauty
Max Vale Jan 2017
Gemstones are pretty,
But why do they cost so much?
I know they're lovely,
But aren't they just rocks?
Yeah, Can someone answer my question why are gemstones worth so much money than say, metal?

Late To My Own Funeral
Max Vale Dec 2021
when I woke up
the morning was cold,
the sky was dark.
it was like even the Earth knew.
throw on my suit,
black as coal.
I'm late,
felt like the longest walk of my life.
when I get there,
the service has begun.
the priest begins his solemn words
there's flowers,
red, white, yellow
no one's crying - yet.
I take the last empty seat,
The coffin.
270 · Dec 2016

Not With Me
Max Vale Apr 2021
I'm not alone.
The wind still laughs with me.
The sun still smiles at me.
The ocean still waves back at me.

The wind's laughing at me.
The sun's smiling not because of me.
The ocean is not waving at me.
I am alone.
The world's a cruel place
Sometimes even when you're with others you still feel alone.

Going Backwards
Max Vale Jan 2017

That I run too fast.

I'll be going backwards.

To Fade
Max Vale May 2020
It's a long road,
And I'm on my own.
I'm scared of the things,
That I don't know.

As the night comes,
I look up to the sky.
I send a prayer,
Hoping my dreams won't die.

I wish my monsters will leave,
And the demons will go away.
I'm just begging,
For the darkness to fade.

Millions of Years Ago
Max Vale Dec 2016
Millions of years before the flowers bloomed,
Above the Earth a dark sky loomed.
The clouds it bears weeps it tears so loud,
And sends hundreds of raindrops towards the ground
The raindrops fall onto the mound
Where they grow into flowers, strong and proud.
So although no flower look like another,
They all came from the sky their loving mother.

One Plus One is Two
Max Vale Jan 2017
One plus one is two,
Four plus five is nine,
I hope you feel this too,
But I want to make you mine.
It may not be accurate.
Like 3.14 is pi,
But like infinity is never ending,
Like my longing.
For when we're together,
Like 7,8,9.
I want to stay with you forever.
Shout out to gf, love ya!
You're wayyy better at maths than me!
