old songs - 'A Simple Fact'

Another old song of mine – ‘A Simple Fact’

(Verse)

This barrier around my heart, is there to keep pain out

instead, it’s kept it in

Loneliness has made it brittle, If you push enough it will give

If you can be bothered, If you think I’m worth the effort

(Chorus)

And I can see why you’d want to stay

and why you’d want to leave

I can see why you’d want to be with me

and why you’d rather not,

sometimes I feel the same

(Verse)

Too much youthful insolence, has made me difficult

set me apart, alone

Stubborn proud and arrogant I don’t need anyone

well, I am wrong

(Chorus)

 And at the risk of sounding Clichéd

I’ve always wanted you, I’ve just never said it

Cause I know I don’t deserve you

That you deserve more,

It’s a simple fact.

old songs – ‘This distance between’

Another old song of mine

"This distance between"

(Verse)

Been so long since I last saw you

I’ve almost forgotten the little things

(Chorus)

 You raising your eyes to me,

your sweet smile

(Verse)

Been so long since I last loved you

That’s if you don’t count my dreams

(Chorus)

Cause then it would be

as if you weren’t gone

(Verse)

Been so long since you last held me

Been so long since I felt you

(Chorus)

Been so long since there was more

then a memory to cling to

Old Songs- one fine day

As i have been cleaning up.. i came across some songs i had written a while back...


"One fine Day"

(Verse) One fine day, I'll make you mine
I'll take you to the river and drown you
Just like my heart, a current so strong
Will wash you away

(Chorus) And when they come, to find you
the ribbon that held you hair, will be all that's left

(Verse) And I'll cry (crocodile tears) and act morose
and ask to lead the search for you
With torches, we'll trample the night
and I alone will find, your suicide note

(Chorus) It's perfumed Sweetness, I'll bring to my lips
and do to it, what I could never do to you

(Solo)

(Verse) and the love, you  took from me
I now, reclaim
