Funny how it took me this long to post this song. I wrote this song in 8th grade. I think this is the oldest of my original songs that I've written and posted here. (Today might be older but I don't count that one because I used garageband loops for the music.). I created a pattern with my piano and put it into garageband making it sound like a guitar for the majority of the instrumental to this song. So out of all my songs I've written original music for, this one would be the first one.
This song is a completely made up break up story. Enjoy.
Intro:
Yesterday we were just fine
I swore we had it all
But now it's crumbling under our feet
And we're about to fall
Verse:
I knew from the start it would never work
But I was blind back then
I wish we could escape the world
And go to way back when
Prechorus:
The stars all aligned
And I looked into your eyes
And I thought we'd be just fine
But then I realized
Chorus:
Oh, I know you're no good for me
But I liked you anyway
I guess it was too hard to see
That we would never be okay
We were walking hand in hand
It was only you and me
But now I understand
That it was never meant to be
(It was never meant to be)
Verse:
Now today I'm alone
But I know I made the right choice
My heart beats loud in a constant drone
Why can't I escape the noise?
Prechorus:
I said 'we should run'
When we saw the setting sun
When the darkness of night crept in
It brought us to an end
Chorus:
Oh, I know you're no good for me
But I liked you anyway
I guess it was too hard to see
That we would never be okay
We were walking hand in hand
It was only you and me
But now I understand
That it was never meant to be
Bridge:
Oh, it's too late to change the past
And it's too late to just turn back
And it's too late to figure out
How we could've made it work out
Chorus:
Oh, I know you're no good for me
But I liked you anyway
I guess it was too hard to see
That we would never be okay
We were walking hand in hand
It was only you and me
But now I understand
That it was never meant to be

PoetryIn my free time, I like to write original songs. I show them to friends sometimes but other than that, I never really get the chance to show them to anyone. I decided to make this to share my songs. Hope you enjoy! If you're interested in collabo...
