Songs I Wrote

Poésie

Here are some songs I wrote. The ones that end in (Old Song) are ones I wrote when I was 14. They're not all that good, but I thought it'd be cool to have my old songs here alongside my new ones. I think it shows how much I've changed and improved...

You Were There (Old Song)

Verse 1: Everyday, misery. Everyday secretly wanted it to end. Just wanted everyone to go away so I could cry in peace. Wishing I could talk. Wishing that I could speak up. Feels like I'm drowning, but no one cares, but no one cared. All they did was sit and stared like it was some sick show. When everything broke inside of me, I was empty. Everyday sat alone. Loneliness ate me right down to the bone. For years and years I was completely alone. Only three years ago. Finally one day that loneliness went away.

Chorus: I was sitting just one normal depressing day. Then I saw you come my way. You told me to follow you and I was really scared to. Now that three years are gone I went with them too. Now I'm in a new state. I'm in a state filled with trouble. I got a friend that reminds me of you. I'm losing my mind. What do I do? I can't go back to that first day without shedding a tear because I know you're still there and now I'm here. Sometimes I wonder, should I stay have stayed at the place I called home or stay here where I'm always alone? Would it have better if I never came? Is it me to blame?

Verse 2: When I first joined I wish I didn't. Now I wish I still could. Everyone seemed too quiet. Oh no, what did I do? Why don't they like me? I try to talk, but I just sound weird. Really wish I wasn't here. I was hoping that I could bring them around. I thought maybe in a couple years they could bring their walls down. She was the only thing that made me stay. Shouldn't there be something I can say? Now that I'm looking back I wish I could've changed my words. Maybe then they'd open or maybe they'd lock their doors. Being ignored or pushed away got me to the top in eighth grade. Then just one year later I had to say goodbye forever.

Chorus: I was sitting just one normal depressing day. Then I saw you come my way. You told me to follow you and I was really scared to. Now that three years are gone I went with them too. (start here then add time to 2:50) Now I'm in a new state. I'm in a state filled with trouble. I got a friend that reminds me of you. I'm losing my mind. What do I do? I can't go back to that first day without shedding a tear because I know you're still there and now I'm here. Sometimes I wonder, should I stay have stayed at the place I called home or stay here where I'm always alone? Would it have better if I never came? Is it me to blame?

Verse 3: Now just from looking around I can't believe that I had come. Who is the person I have become? I was hoping to change my image, but its already tattooed to my heart. My heart's out for all to see, but no one wanted anything to do with me. I feel like the outcast. I know this pain will last. I just wish I could re-visit my past. Will I ever see her again? Let's just say I'm not crazy for pretend.
