Hi. I have been writing songs since I was a kid and I was wondering if some of you could take a look at them.
If you are someone who needs songs, I'd be happy to supply some, so just let me know.
And here are the songs:
Broken Down
This house
It used to be my home
And now, it’s falling apart
Just like me
On the inside
In spite of everything I do
This place
Became the refuge of my dreams
Made an impact on my future
And now, it’s barely standing
Just like me
Falling over again
In spite of my feet on the ground
This waiting has me feeling
Broken down
Waiting just for you to
Come around
I shouldn’t be too bothered
Broken down
But you’ve become my shelter
And now we’ve broken down
This house
Was home to love and tenderness
Sometimes
It was valued even less
But now the table’s turned and
Life’s become a merry-go-round
This place
Used to be where I would run to
Every day
Even when you were away
And now we’re both falling over
Now we’re both falling apart
This waiting has me feeling
Broken down
Waiting just for you to
Come around
I shouldn’t be too bothered
Broken down
But you’ve become my shelter
And now we’ve broken down
This waiting has me feeling
Broken down
Waiting just for you to
Rescue me and come around
Though I shouldn’t be too bothered
I’m sitting here on the front step
Falling apart, broken down
‘Cause you’ve become my shelter
And now we’re broken down
This waiting has me feeling
Broken down
Waiting just for you to
Come around
I shouldn’t be too bothered
Broken down
But you’ve become my shelter
And now we’ve broken down
We May As Well All Be Strangers
Tonight I feel the stars above me shine
Lying out here on the grass the world is mine
Like so many others before me
The reach of the moon is beyond me
But I don’t have to worry
‘Cause I know you’ll take care of me
Sharing the bed and the dinner plate
Watching the sunset and staying up late
Making sure that we all are happy
I take care of you and you take care of me
I don’t know you, I don’t know you well
But I don’t really care
Never saw you before last week
But you love me for who I am
And though we all think we know each other
Though we think we could be sister and brother
The whole world around us in danger
We may as well all be strangers
I love sitting in this tiny little kitchen with you
Having a few laughs and knocking back a few
Singing crazy songs and having a good time
You know I love you all as if you were mine
Friends are family and family are friends
I just hope this night never ends
So tonight let’s all just stick together
We’ll take care of each other forever
I don’t know you, I don’t know you well
But I don’t really care
Never saw you before last week
But you love me for who I am
And though we all think we know each other
Though we think we could be sister and brother
The whole world around us in danger
We may as well all be strangers
Cheers to us
I don’t know you, I don’t know you well
But I don’t really care
Never saw you before last week
But you love me for who I am
And though we all think we know each other
Though we think we could be sister and brother
The whole world around us in danger
We may as well all be strangers
Butterfly
Take my hand
Blue eyes
You're a cinderella man
Running on empty
Your mother told you
Act right on
As if her loss
Was nothing
You followed her
The seductress with no name
And you knew her hatreds
Piled atop a tower
This is the smoking gun
Crying is mandatory
Look out the window
Reach out and touch the air
Let me breathe upon you
You're all over
You're inconsistent
And you honestly
Don't give see what I see
You watch me
As I hover over you
And you cry even more
I guess it hurts
This is the smoking gun
Crying is mandatory
Look out the window
Reach out and touch the air
Let me breathe upon you
Life is like
A butterfly
Changes right
Before your eyes
The tears you weep
Are nothing more
Than beads on life's fabric
This is the smoking gun
Crying is mandatory
Look out the window
Reach out and touch the air
Let me breathe upon you
Open up
Like butterfly's wings
Flutter
Let yourself feel
Let yourself feel
Let me see you bloom
Getting Through To You
You give me the blues
Criticize when I make a scene
You don’t accept my state of mind
You ask me why I never cry
You never hear when I give you my answer
You never listen
And though you say you’ve always cared
Your indifference makes you seem cold
That’s not okay with me
When you just lie over and over
It’s so hard
Getting through to you
When you object
To everything I say and do
You don’t respect me
You don’t trust me
You’re always questioning my sanity
And testing it too
There’s no doubt about it here
No point trying getting through to you
You laugh at my mistakes
Tell me when I’m wrong
You don’t let it lie
Now I’m starting to see
What a fool I used to be
Thinking you’d be true to me
Lying here restless and sleepless
Wondering what I should do
Tonight’s the night I make my decision
Listen closely it’s your last chance
It’s so hard
Getting through to you
When you object
To everything I say and do
You don’t respect me
You don’t trust me
You’re always questioning my sanity
And testing it too
There’s no doubt about it here
No point trying getting through to you
So make up your mind
If you wanna stay or if you wanna go
I’m gonna say the last word on this
Not gonna tell you what you wanna hear
It’s so hard
Getting through to you
When you object
To everything I say and do
You don’t respect me
You don’t trust me
You’re always questioning my sanity
And testing it too
There’s no doubt about it here
No point trying to get through
It’s so hard
Getting through to you
When you object
To everything I say and do
You don’t respect me
You don’t trust me
You’re always questioning my sanity
And testing it too
There’s no doubt it about it here
No point trying getting through to you
I edited them because I tend to swear in my songs, so I hope they sound okay... Thanks in advance for the feedback!!
