each star to burn....

"Each Star to Burn"
(chorus)
So we gave up hope for a more appealing color
And I came up with plans to kill these thoughts of her
But they always consist of consistent drinks
I pour one for myself and a second to keep it company

With hands shaking on my wrists
I am reacting to this disease I’m contracting
That started at the heart but slipped to the synapse
Another lapse could leave me
On a course to crash

I slide down hallways, to door frames
I’ll hide in the nooks from the dirty looks
She gave her heart to a romantic
But I gave mine to a crook
Who stole it and sold it for a dime
At that price I could've bought a dozen to replace mine

(repeat chorus)

I’ve been sending out calls for help
But I feel like killing myself because the phone bill is outrageous
I need to tackle this in stages
Cause all at once it's almost contagious

When I sent out a plea for sanity the answer came back "denied"
Well, at least I tried
And I can always say I gave my best
To the depressed dress she wore
“Yes, sir, I have some sins to confess”

(repeat chorus)
Now I’ll address the wounds I dressed under my clothes
And then turn my attention to the company seated in my favorite seat
“This isn't sitting right with me”
So I came clean between honesty and me
Honestly, this is the worst I’ve been seen

(I’ll sweep these regrets off their feet and under the rug
In time we'll forget they are there
I’ll sweep these regrets off their feet and under the rug
In time they'll come out for air)—2x


i wrote this a few weeks ago at like 2 o'clock when i couldn't sleep. i've spent the last few days polishing it up, but anyway tell me what you guys think.

come on, people.

I like it, I'd need to hear it though because I'm not sure how some of the verses would flow considering some lines are considerably longer than others. I liked this line a lot, "I pour one for myself and a second to keep it company"

thank you. i'm working on music for it, and i hope to record it as soon as i can.

better than half the bullshit kids post in the lyrics forums. one line sounds too much like treos for me, and i don't think the phone bill part flows, but i like it overall

[Blared]

Awesome! I agree maybe change the phone bill to something shorter, but I really liked it. Catchy chorus, and everything, keep it up.

thanks guys. yeah, i know the phone bill part doesn't really flow too well, i've been working on it these last few days and have couple of different ideas of how to change it. thanks for the feedback.
