A few years back my English class was taught by a nutter and he made us all memorise the "friends, Romans, countrymen" speak from Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare. Now, generally speaking, I hate Shakespeare (and yes, I do understand it for those who believe the only way to not like Shakespeare is by not understanding his writings) however I have taken that line and played around with it and then stolen a line from the speech as the title. Also, I have a guitar part for this song down so you may get to hear it sometime in the future (probably just on acoustic guitar until SYC gets going) but yeah, hope you enjoy it "My Heart Is In The Coffin There With Caesar" Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your fears; "I'm worried I'll never been seen as great as you, Even though your words, are simplistic and shallow, The knife in your back shows the feelings you lack, Yeah the knife in your back shows the feelings you lack." Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your fears; "I'm worried that I'll never get out of here, And the world is just filled with things that I can't change, Filled with bad things for which I'll take the blame, 'Cause I know you don't deserve it, 'Cause I know you don't deserve it." Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me young ears, To embrace with words so insincere, That they scar my throat while I slur them, And take away young children's innocence, Take away young children's innocence. I'll tell you one thing, It is that I love you, It is that I never meant you harm, I'll tell them one thing, It is that I'll care for them, It is that I'll never let them down. Sinners, saints, blasphemers, take a look around, And notice all the things you do in the same way, You're just the same as me, Scared that you won't become something, So scared that you won't become something. I'll tell you one thing, It is that I love you, It is that I never meant you harm, I'll tell them one thing, It is that I'll care for them, It is that I'll never let them down.
Cheers Luke and yeah, it's for SYC. I've decided to edit some of the lyrics slightly as well but I'm not completely sure what will be changed and such.
