I'm sorry everyone

Look, I admit I've been a total asshole. Godslayer Jillian is right. I may not be what you call a goth. I'm sorry for treating everyone like shit and i hope you all will forgive me. I get flamed very easy, and i know nobody cares, but i'm going through a lot right now. I'm not trying to be a bitchy little crybaby. Please give me another chance. Cut a newbie some slack, I didn't realize i'd turn this website into world war 3. I think I'm a goth, but I don't like to show it because my friends think I'm some kind of freak already. I think I can trust you all, so I'll let out my gothic side. I'm very sorry.

It's not WWIII, it's happened a few times in the short space i've been here. People here will be decent to people if they don't follow the steriotypes of angry teens, like you're introduction did. Best things to do are to answer the questions that magpie gave you a link to, and go to: http://blood-dance.net/goth/grant.html
I found this site very interesting, once i'd discovered it.
And chill mate, people always think something that doesn't follow the norms of society as wierd/freakish. Also, try to make better poetry. If the stuff you put up was made on the spot, i'm sure people will forgive you for your previous works. There was an old poetry link, but now that's been destroyed by the unknown.

Also, another huge helper: don't use netspeak. This is one of the few sites on the internet which don't use that babyish netspeak, such as OMG, TEH, PWNED or using the number two or four in place of to or for.

Water was running; children were running
You were running out of time
Under the mountain, a golden fountain
Were you praying at the Lares shrine?
But oh your city lies in dust, my friend

We found you hiding we found you lying
Choking on the dirt and sand
Your former glories and all the stories
Dragged and washed with eager hands

But oh your city lies in dust, my friend

Hot and burning in your nostrils
Pouring down your gaping mouth
Your molten bodies blanket of cinders
Caught in the throes .......

And your city lies in dust

Punk's not dead
It just deserves to die
When it becomes another stale cartoon
A close-minded, self-centered social club
Ideas don't matter, it's who you know
If the music's gotten boring
It's because of the people
Who want everyone to sound the same
Who drive bright people out
Of our so-called scene
'Til all that's left Is just a meaningless fad
Hardcore formulas are dogshit
Change and caring are what's real
Is this a state of mind
Or just another label
The joy and hope of an alternative
Have become its own cliche
A hairstyle's not a lifestyle
Imagine Sid Vicious at 35
Who needs a scene
Scared to love and to feel
Judging everythng
By loud fast rules appeal
Who played last night?
"I don't know, I forgot.
But diving off the stage Was a lot of fun."
[Chorus:]
So eager to please
Peer pressure decrees
So eager to please
Peer pressure decrees

Make the same old mistakes
Again and again,
Chickenshit conformist
Like your parents
What's ripped us apart even more than drugs
Are the thieves and the goddamn liars
Flipping people off when they share their stuff
When someone falls are there any friends?
Harder core than thou for a year or two
Then it's time to get a real job
Others stay home, it's no fun to go out
When the gigs are wrecked by gangs and thugs
When the thugs form bands, look who gets record deals
From New York metal labels looking to scam
Who sign the most racist queerbashing bands they can find
To make a buck revving kids up for war
Walk tall, act small
Only as tough as gang approval
Unity is bullshit
When it's under someone's fat boot
Where's the common cause
Too many factions
Safely sulk in their shells
Agree with us on everything
Or we won't help with anythng
That kind of attitude
Just makes a split grow wider
Guess who's laughing while the world explodes
When we're all crybabies
Who fight best among ouselves

[Chorus]

That farty old rock and roll attitude's back
"It's competition, man, we wanna break big."
Who needs friends when the money's good
That's right, the '70s are back.
Cock-rock metal's like a bad laxative
It just don't move me, ya know?
The music's OK when there's more ideas than solos
Do we rally need the attitude too?
Shedding thin skin too quickly
As a fan it disappoints me
Same old stupid sexist lyrics
Or is Satan all you can think of?
Crossover is just another word
For lack of ideas
Maybe what we need
Are more trolls under the bridge
Will the metalheads finally learn something-
Or will the punks throw away their education?
No one's ever the best
Once they believe their own press
"Maturing" don't mean rehashing
Mistakes of the past

[Chorus]

The more things change
The more they stay the same
We can't grow
When we won't criticize ourselves
The '60s weren't all failure
It's the '70s that stunk
As the clock ticks we dig the same hole
Music scenes ain't real life
They won't get rid of the bomb
Won't eliminate ****
Or bring down the banks
Any kind of real change
Takes more time and work
Than changing channels on a TV set

[Chorus]

Horrorgirl: Any reason why are you posting those songs over and over again?

That could be quite idiotic, and at the same time, quite deep in a Zen way; because, after all, of course there is a reason.
I've read your posts, long-name-girl, and I dare to guess you were going for the latter one.
But, anyway, everyone knows what I was implying with my question.

The lyrics are symbolic. Cities in Dust is in refference to this place, as she feels this site is a once great city that now lies in ruins over all of the chaos going on lately between the banning of long-time veterans and the influx of kids out on summer vacation from www.whatelsecanido.com/besidesbeatmyshlong.htm

She posts it over and over again in each thread to drive that point home.
