Let's talk in song...For the love of music...Shall we? (music and lyrics, 2010)

[picklejuice]

I was cheerful, bright and gay
Looking forward to who wouldn't do
The role I was about to play
But as if to knock me down
Reality came around
And without so much as a mere touch
Cut me into little pieces
Leaving me to doubt
Talk about, God in His mercy

Oh, if he really does exist
Why did he desert me
In my hour of need
I truly am indeed
Alone again, naturally
It seems to me that
There are more hearts broken in the world
That can't be mended

Left unattended
What do we do

[txwriter]

When are you gonna come down
When are you going to land
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man

You know you can't hold me forever
I didn't sign up with you
I'm not a present for your friends to open
This boy's too young to be singing the blues

So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can't plant me in your penthouse
I'm going back to my plough

Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad
Oh I've finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road

[picklejuice]

^^^ Good song!

Hi ya, txwriter.

Your post reminded me of this one:

You could never know what it's like
Your blood like water freezes just like ice
And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you
You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use
And did you think this fool could never win
Well look at me, I'm coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while I'm still standing you just fadeaway
Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah
I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah

[sandgirl]

All I see is, shattered pieces
I can't keep it, hidden like a secret
I can't look away
From all this pain, in the world we've made

[sandgirl]

You say you don't want it again
And again but you don't really mean it
You say you don't want it
This circus we're in

[sandgirl]

Why did you
why did you
why did you
why did you
why did you
why did you
why did you
why did you
why did you come down
I don't wanna come back down from this cloud (this cloud, this cloud, this cloud this, this cloud, this cloud, this cloud, this cloud, this cloud, this cloud)

[sandgirl]

There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying

[sandgirl]

Oh, because
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing)
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing, baby)
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing, oooh)
Ever happened to me

[sandgirl]

How do you like me now?
How do you like me now,
Do you still think I'm crazy
Standin here today?

[picklejuice]

Oh girl, I loved you
But you turned and you walked away
I would love you for tomorrow
Though I know I do today

You told me that you'd never hurt me
Girl you just tore my life apart
Tell me baby, why'd you do it
Won't you bring me back my heart

I tried to understand it baby
I searched my heart inside my mind
I searched the depths of my whole soul baby
There was nothing there to find

You told me that you'd never leave me
Girl you just went and told a lie
Tell me baby, why'd you do it
Why'd you make a me want to cry

Why you treat me so bad, I don't know why baby
Why you treat me so bad, why you do me the way you do
Why you treat me so bad, I don't know why baby
Why you treat me so bad, why you treat me so bad baby
