Shadows

Welp. another song.

His broken heart in every lyric ever written
He is crushed every time she leads him on
There are no chains keeping him from walking away
So why he stays nobody knows


Move on he says he knows he should
But he’s afraid this is as good as it gets--no


Next time she says hello
Tell her goodbye for real
It might feel wrong but in the end you’ll see it’s right
‘Cause you’re hangin’ on too tight
To shadows in the night
It might feel wrong but in the end you’ll know it’s right

He’s halfway there took that first step out the door but
She cries I want you as my friend
Decision time will he take that next step away
He cries I’m not coming back this time

Move on he says he knows he should
Move on this time he’ll walk away--yeah

Lately Tonight

Newest song. I just can't decide on the last line of the chorus. Just can't decide what I like better.


Lately you’ve been hard so hard to read
Lately you’ve been so hard to reach
Lately you’ve had so little to say
Lately I don’t know what to do

Tonight there's something on my mind
Something that I need to tell you
Tonight, even though you didn’t ask
Tonight, I’m gonna tell you that


I’m thinking that maybe this isn’t right
I’m thinking we’re not meant to be more
I’m thinking that maybe we should just stop where we are
I’m thinking that we’re better as friends (or “and go back to just being friends”)


Tonight I waited by the phone
Tonight I found myself alone
Your heart, well it needs some time to heal
Your heart is why I say...that

CHORUS

I wanna go back
Before it's too late
Before it's too hard
To turn around

I wanna go back
Before it's too late
Before we're too far
To turn around

CHORUS

It's like this....

I just want to write a song. But I don't know what about. I don't know what I'm feeling.

There's this boy
He might like me
I might like him
Maybe

There's this heart (There's these hearts)
It might be healed (They might be healed)
It might be falling (They might be falling)
Maybe

Maybe, just maybe, I could fall for you and
Maybe, just maybe, you could fall for me

There's these friends
They might be friends
They might be more
Maybe

There's these friends
They might be more
They might just work
Maybe

Maybe, just maybe, I could fall for you and
Maybe, just maybe, you could fall for me

You're not who I thought you'd be
And maybe I'm not who you thought I'd be
But maybe we're who each other needs

Maybe, just maybe, I could fall for you and
Maybe, just maybe, you could fall for me



That'll work I guess. The second verse is ALWAYS the hardest to write. Gah.
