So here's the link to my myspace music page:

www.myspace.com/emmahuntermusic

Check it out and let me know what you think! I'll have the chance to put new songs up in a few months..right now I have no access to recording equiptment.

(It's basically me on the guitar and singing/harmonizing. One just-for-fun song that my sister wrote when she was little [I will see you])

Working on a new song...but the lyrics....eh...
It's for a friend, like all my songs are.

I use the chords C maj, and Am mostly...and use a little Em as well.

"Drew's Song"

All my life
has been in black and white
then came a magnificant light

(chorus)
What would I do
without you?
you're the only one who
has walked in my shoes

Sometimes I pretend
that our time together will never end
I bring my broken heart for you to mend

(chorus)

I've gone so many days
without seeing your face
and everything feels so out of place
in my heart is a huge empty space

(chorus)

No one understands me like you
nobody makes me laugh like you do
what would I do, without you?

(chorus)

My lyrics are not easy to judge by just reading them. If you do, they don't keep in poetic time. But I just sustain certain words to make it feel like it flows "poetically". I'm not a poet. I'm barely a songwriter.

I wrote this song a few weeks ago...and I'm aware that it's incredibly cheesy. The melody makes it bearable, but still...
I tend to write songs based on conversations had with friends, about really lame and girly things. I'm totally using this thread as my lyrics database, since they're usually just written on random scraps of paper.

"Unknown"

I sit here on my cold and lonely bed
with the thoughts of my cold and lonely exsistance in my head

Without a soul to love in that special way
it's something I dream about every day
when will I find a love that's here to stay?

(chorus)
Oh my love, I don't know who you are
Oh my love, I hope you're not too far
I wish for you on every star
some day I'll know who you are

There's a part of my heart I never show
when I find you, I think I'll know
when this love I've concealed starts to show

(chorus)

Who knows if we've ever met
chances are we haven't crossed paths yet

My love for my unknown is strong
and I can wait however long

For right now I'll concentrate on me
become the best person I can be
as for everything else, we'll just wait and see

(chorus)

"Hannah's Song"

I don't know how I survive
with so little of you in my life
without your constant light
this yearning I'll never fight

(chorus) Oh, how I miss your smile
to see it, I have to travel miles and miles
but it's always worth my while

It's true I didn't know you long
but now that I'm gone
life without you seems so wrong

(chorus)

There are so few
who I give my heart to
You're the only one who
means the same to me as you do

(chorus)

yes it's worth it just to see you smile

The sound of your voice is quite enjoyable :) And I'm a sucker for harmony, heehee...

Thank you! I love harmony too...It's the most frustrating thing for me not to be able to figure out harmony for a part of a song.

Thank you so much!! I'd love to get a record deal, but I don't think I'm "developed" enough to be seriously considered. Maybe somewhere down the road I'll pursue it, but I'm too chicken, haha.

Anyways, new song...wrote it yesterday. I don't know if I'm finished yet...I'd like another verse maybe.

"I Hate Goodbyes"

All this time I've been dreading this moment
and it's come now that I"m finally content.
But I have to be strong
though it feels so wrong

(chorus)
I'm not gunna cry
I'll just let out a sigh
and say..
goodbye
goodbye
goodbye

There's so much I'll never forget
and so much I will
So many things that I regret
and things I would do still

(chorus)

There's nothing I hate more
then leaving what I adore
the pain I try to ignore
but it just hurts me more

(chorus)

Thanks brokendoll, fallacy1901, AND Svetlana-S.V.D.!!

To answer brokendoll's questions, you SHOULD be able to download the songs off of myspace. If you look at the player, it gives an option to download each individual song. They're already mp3's.

And yes, it is really me singing, haha. Well the first two anyways, the last one is my two sisters singing and me on the guitar (but not the rock and roll ending, that's my friend's contribution).

This is the first time I wrote lyrics for a song BEFORE having a tune. The tune I have is...okay...this one's gunna take some time to even become decent.

"Let Me In"

Is there anyone you know
who just stands out to you?
But there's so much they don't show
that person is you.

You're such a mystery
you think you blend into the crowd
But if you give into me
I will say it out loud

(Chorus) I wanna get lost in you
I wanna soak you in
Don't wanna miss any part of you
cause that would be a sin

It's a shame you won't let me in
You deny the love you could have
the love you never let begin
What will I do with all this love I have?

(chorus)

Stop wasting your time
playing hard to get
I've wanted you to be mine
from the moment we met

(chorus)

I want to know your weaknesses
What do you like to do?
You don't know how hard it is
to love someone like you

(chorus)

But our love will never begin
If you don't let me in

"Wasted Love"

The first time I saw you
my heart flew
I didn't know what to do
ever since then I've been hooked on you

(chorus)
I waste my time loving you
but there's nothing else I'd rather do

No one understands
why I don't give up on you
it's not something I planned
and it's not something I choose

(chorus)

All the times you ignored me
I still loved you
All the times you saw me
I was crazy for you

(chorus)

I admit, it's a loney life
to love and get nothing back
It's hurts, it cuts like a knife
cause your love I still lack

(chorus)

outro:
I love you, I love you
it's true, I love you
There's nothing I'd rather do
then love you

"Fake"

I see right through you
seeing right through me
You see everything I do
I do everything you see

(chorus)
Can you give me a break?
Stop analyzing every step I take
Do you have to see every mistake?
Do you have to prove I'm a fake?

I feel your gaze
burning in my mind
never one word of praise
you leave your smile behind

(chorus)

I may not be what you want
But I'm what you've got
Will you just accept me
and please...

(chorus)

"Get Out"

My whole body, my whole mind
longs for a beam of light
that within your heart, some love you'll find
and nobody could deny, our love is right

(prechorus)
I need you to escape me
oh, what's the use?
you're becoming everything I see
So with my heart I plea

(chorus)
Get out of my thoughts
get out of my fantasy
become something I forgot
will someone set me free?

I think of you and float away
then I'm pulled down to darkness
because reality comes to stay
and destroys all hope of happiness

(prechorus + chorus)

I'm in complete agony
when I'm away from you
but even when you're here with me
it hurts me too

(prechorus + chorus)

Outro:
Noone but you
can save me
there's nothing I can do
so I still dream

Hey, Emma!

I came across this last night, so I decided to check out your music page. I have to say, you have some really good stuff there! I especially like "Rachel's Song."

Oddly enough, reading the About Me on your page has inspired me to buy myself an acoustic guitar from eBay (once my next credit card bill is taken care of, anyway).

Keep up the good work!

Thanks again guys! Every comment means the world to me..honestly!

Abanndon

I used to tell you everything
all my wildest dreams
and now it seems
that you've grown out of me

(chorus) Where are you now?
Now that I need you here
I don't know how
to live without you my dear

You don't need me anymore
you've closed the door
my heart it feels so sore
as I sit alone on the floor

(chorus)

When you needed me I was always there for you
but you've abanndon me now that I need you

(chorus)

This one's on my music page

Weak
If my heart aches so bad for something so trivial
What will happen when there's pain that's true and real
But I still feel the pain
cause I've lost and there's nothing to gain

(chorus)
Can I really be this weak?
Hurt so bad I can barely speak
My strength is what I seek

I'm surrounded by heartache much greater then mine
Why does everyone else seem to be fine?
I hide and wipe my tears away
Cause I despair and I'm ashamed

(chorus)

I'll make it through the storm
Find a place to keep warm
And inside myself I've found what I've been looking for

(chorus)

I'll find what I seek
Cause I know I'm not that weak

Finally
Inspired by all my favorite musicians
dedicated to Evanescence

First time in a while I let something reach me
who knew you had so much to teach me?
How'd you know what I needed to hear
when you were nowhere near?

(pre-chorus)
I've waited for this for so long
and once I heard your song
it felt like

(chorus)
Finally someone knows
what I've been through
someone finally knows
I just needed something new

Somebody I don't know
who I may never get to thank
picked me up so often
when my heart sank

(pre-chorus+chorus)

And I don't stand alone
I'm not the only one you saved
I just wanted you to know
of the new road you paved

(pre-chorus+chorus)

I absolutley love your voice with the guitar on 'blowing in the wind'
i used to sing that in junior school as a hymn, but you do a better job by far then a school hall full of kids!! The harmonising is spot on as well and it fits together so nicely, it's gorgeous to listen to.

Weak is another awesome song, although in parts the harmony outdoes the main vocal parts, and i think there were a couple of off notes in there, but that's the only criticism i have to make, otherwise i loved that one too.

mind if i add you ? your voice is stunning

Thanks for the compliments and advice Morgana!

Wait
You spend most of your life waiting
For what you're not ready for
After all the anticipating
You'll be pushed to the floor

(chorus)
Why couldn't you just wait
Until you grew up a little
But now it's too late
And you're caught in the middle

You need to be paitient
Let it happen when it may
Why do you look so vacant
why do you have nothing to say?

(chorus)

Look what you might've avoided
Less often you would weep
You always seem to play dead
And your soul's asleep

(chorus)

Look before you leap
Your integrity you will keep
