Hey, we need to talk
As a matter of fact, let’s take a walk
Hear the footsteps echo through my body
All of this to say I’m sorry
I met you
Out of the blue
One more chance
At a fake romance
We finally spoke
Our silence broke
My best friend
Too bad it had to end
We talked forever
Did I make you feel better?
When they took you away
I just walked by to say:
I’m so sorry…for not being there
Next time I swear
I’ll show you I care
Next time I swear
Things have changed
And I just have to complain
That we’re just not the same
Where once was love, now lives pain
I want to go back
Is it too late for that?
I blame myself
Something you can’t help
I’m dead inside
Wondering why I even tried
Telling myself I’ll never cry
Just ignore me…WALK ON BY
I still mean what I said
Something time will not bend
I need to tie up loose ends
I still want to be friends
I’m so sorry…for not being there
Next time I swear
I’ll show you I care
Next time I swear

here's to the words I could never say
these the lyrics we tried to put music to?
no, those were the ones about feeling sane in a crazy world, or something close to that.
i am still working on the streetlight manifesto-ish one that i showed you guys. some of it just doesn't flow.
but yeah. good poem and good thread title. 5/5
oh right. the less than jake one.
a lot of me wishes i had a guitarmy or a horn section or even just a drummer to put behind my lyrics. music enhances lyrics.
my trumpet's a bit broken. i'm not sure how. the one vacation i bring it home, the middle valve gets stuck. i really wanted to play those tabs...
it just wasn't meant to be
this just in: yeti's are
a) snowboarders
b) vulnerable to swords
c) better than mike at just about everything
d) amazing soup chefs
e) stealin' my pumpkins n' cheese
f) able to turn into carnivorous dreidel fiends
g) makin'(out with a baby)love right in front of you
jesus christ this song.
this song makes me think of waking up on a saturday morning. the sunlight is shining through the windows and through the holes in the curtains and onto your bed. you wake up and you realize you're not alone. the things you were worried about last night are forgotten and you're ready to start a new day.
the song, to me, is about breaking away and leaving things that have hurt you in the past and realizing that you are better off without them in the first place, even if it doesn't seem that way.
