Yes, the title should explain everything perectly.
I can confidently and safely say that I have become a great songwriter.
It has taken me some revisions and thought re-arrangements and assess my works to see what I disliked about them.
My lyrical content has usually revolved around self-triumphs and bloodletting stories of lusts and sins.
I wish to use this thread to show you what's in the heart and mind of yours truly. This is real. This is heavy. This is unforgiving.
This is The Dynasty of Pain.

“My Wings are Yours”
It was long ago that I found my way
The path was filled with blood and loss
I was told that the fighting would strengthen me
Every night I found myself clenching the Cross
You were what I needed to make my eyes clear
Sobbing you asked me what my wings were for
I’ll use them one day to fly back here
To hold your beautiful body in my arms once more
My wings are yours
You can take them if you need them
They are yours for the taking
The sun cannot melt what we created
A gentle kiss always brings us back
Letting us know that we’re still awake
Your hands could always warm my heart
But its my breath that you always managed to take
My wings are yours
You can take them if you need them
With these you’ll never be alone
I love how I can fly us to nowhere
The humans cannot judge us
Only God can do such a thing
A kiss is all I want
It breaks the stone around this heart of mine
It breaks the stone…….
Note: there is a small reference to Greek Mythology there, with the first chorus.
"The sun cannot melt what we created." Saying basically we will not be victims like those in the past(Icarus and Dedalus)
This is a new writing, very new. Like, I wrote this a week ago new lol.
I try to convey nothing but visions and emotions in my songs. I try to get you to see everything that I say.
And this one I wrote back in 2005, I actually put it up here before, but since it has stuck around, I'll re-post this so everyone can see.
“Lone Wolf Syndrome”
[The intro is a piece from “Shogun Assassin”-then the music commences]
"Solitaire-cast out once again for my intentions
Unaware-pretend to understand when it’s all a blur
I can’t care-looking in the water seeing no reflection
No one there-collecting scars that remind me of her…
In the sea of red I lay
All gone away
I chose to stay
So leave me alone
And all these words I say
Garments of you
Fragments of you
My own – Syndrome!!
Barren road-the one I travel looks fine to me
Blistered cold-the icy pain becomes a nice sensation
Stinging rain-so much scenery but unable to see
Truth be told-I am the source of my own damnation…
On this broken bed I lie
Seeing you cry
Bliss in my eyes
I left you alone
And it wasn’t enough
Bloody skin was your sight
Now I say good night
To my own—Syndrome!!
Syndrome!
Lone Wolf Syndrome!!"
(solo)

"Unruly" (Inspired by Streets of Rage)
It was such a rush
To be in the glory of the people
We tore the roof off
And I saw you in the corner
You sneered at me and you walked away
That night after the happiness
I awoke to find two allies of metal
My two allies
You came like a thief
And you took my metal brother and sister
The remaining three of us
We read the note you had left in blood
Our answer was a quest to find you
And return to you the blood you left
:The city is alive
And it is all unruly
Authority is blind
Stupid but truly
We take the law
Into hands of our own
Into battle we go
:The gauntlet has been thrown
Through the streets of rage
We encounter your minions
But I see them as insects to crush
Warriors of three to take on dozens
Blood through my veins become such a rush
Hundreds of bones we break and snap
The beasts of burden are alive within
Finally to reach your place of hiding
With metal and blood we will win
You brandish a barrel and allow
Your fear to fly in the form of bullets
It stings us with the gazes of Death
Shutting the pain out we rush to you
The blood you gave us I return to you now!

“Titanium Lies”
Amongst the sea of people I’ve travelled through
You were the one who took my breath
The one who grabbed the heart inside
I grabbed your throat and told you no
The gravity of your actions weighed me down
And I was flustered by my lust
Flustered by your evil
Each day ended with us wrapped in each other
And to each other we spoke the words
I love you
But we didn’t mean this ****
Did we mean it at all!?
All around me
I can see the walls (see the walls)
How can I deny
I was trapped inside
Titanium lies
Every word that was spit
All the energy was spent
It was all for naught
No more cries-just
Titanium lies
Time became an enemy
And absent words drove a wedge between us
When I returned to my home
You were there
You and your flesh
Ready for me to take you again
The ride was splendorous
I craved the way you tasted
Your screams were rhapsody to my ears
Your eyes of ice became full of tears
When you cried you also lied
How dare you share me with another!?
All around meI can see the walls (see the walls)
How can I deny
I was trapped inside
Titanium lies
The years we spent were dead
A fantasy in my head
Your body I still crave inside
Inside
Titanium LIES!

(Inspired by my absence from home)
“The Defender”
The hills and the mountains
They are littered with bodies
Stained with the blood of the wreckless ones
My armor and my men
All discarded
Hilts of the swords buried in the ground
The evils of the earth
Threaten to destroy
All that I know
All that I love
The power I possess can keep them at bay
As long as my heart continues to beat
How could I just leave you alone
All by yourself while the world was on fire
I swore to you
I swore to your heart
That I would be your defender
I’ll stand by your side
While the rest of them die
Your life is the one that I cherish the most
Through blades and through demons
Mastering the senses
Putting a stop to all that dare
My love eternal
Always forever
Even if my body decides to tire
Lessons are learned
And bridges are burned
And even so my love won’t expire
I danced with death
But I shall dance with you
For I
I am your defender
