WTF I never saw this thread   I mainly go on the Britney section 

Then why did you downvote @BlackMajesty's post on page 5?

[AndyFoster]

I started writing this last night, I only have the chorus, will finish it today.

”I’m right here baby, why can’t you see me? I’m the one for you babe, broken and defeated. But when you’re all that I can see, that’s when I know I’m addicted to misery.

Weird, it's the first time I see this... Don't know what happened  Maybe I go on Exhale during my sleep

 It's all good, it happens. I'm really bad about leaving my phone on my bed with the screen on and my dog's been known to click things accidentally, call people, order crazy expensive things like mattresses, etc.

What are you implying 

[OnlyFacts]

This song is called, The Library is Open:

“Katy Perry is no longer very merry.

Camila Cabello is a racist, and Nicki Minaj is married to a....predator who drives her rented Aventador.

Tinder made Hilary Duff a flop, but that queen still saved pop.

Wear a mask, because we’re all mask for mask. 

Now go read a book, but Britney, why don’t we ever see you cook?”

I'm just giving this thread a little nudge so the newer people can see and consider contributing. I'm also posting an unfinished song that I know I won't be able to sell.

"200 MPH"

The racier it gets, the more bored I feel
There’s a flatline with my s.ex appeal
The air is stale after all these reveals
Where are the Christian moms against my fishnets and heels?

Used to dream of my Hondamatic
Sweeping you off your feet and into my arms
But ever since I changed the channel,
All I’ve gotten is static
And I fall trying to lean on my charms
Isn’t it sad being so washed up?
I wish I could still get sloshed on one cup
There’s no longer a need for oversteering
The speedometer’s suddenly looking under used
It’s been months since I had a reason for fearing
If I paid for it all, I can’t be refused

I go faster just to feel the pain
I go faster for a sense of consequence
I’m an addict when you’re on the brain
You won’t make me feel grounded,
I’m under no pretense

[Chorus]
But you could bring some backlash into my life
And grab onto my love blade first like a knife
I’m looking to cut because I’m covered in spikes
Barbed, gripping anatomy
What’s not to like?
I’ve cried hard enough about my blood inducing love
Now I’m just looking for fun 200MPH and above

Beautiful 

Thank you!

Ok so this is kinda embarrassing, and I wrote this song a few years ago. I was clearly heartbroken, and it took years for me to recover. The song is titled, "How Could You Go (Break My Heart)".

 

It was a late night in autumn

Didn't think too much about it

Never known too much about it

But you were my first

And it hurt when you left me

How could you go (break my heart)

 

It's all I'd ever wanted

Back then I was too young to see it

Had nothing to compare it to

But for you I was always a secret

Sometimes when it's love you win

And other times you're left with scars to heal

There's no way I'll forget

The first time that we kissed and made love

Cause nothing has compared to it since

 

How could you go and break my heart

Oh I was left with my guard up

How could we let it fall apart

With how amazing that it started

I remember the days in the winter

The first time spending the night

Oh I wish I would have known what I now know

But all I can say is how could you go and break my heart

[Paulacristina87]

I really liked this song, I really can see it as pop smash  Well done Crazybutitfeelsalright!

I'm sharing with you today a very personal song that I wrote and I that I posted singing a capella on my youtube. It's called "Bad in my skin" and it's about feeling at war with your body and mind. I really hope you like it. Any feedback would be very much appreciated. The lyrics are in the description of the video. Thank you very much for your attention. Kisses** Paula

Hello Alxatc I really liked the lyrics to your song, very touching and they seem pretty heartfelt. Good job  Keep going!

[Alxatc]

This is another song I wrote a few years ago about the same person I had a hard time getting over. It's called, "Part With The Past".

 

Oh we swam in the deep end

Pushing the limits

Our hearts were racing

Toward a crash awaiting in the finish

Oh oh how the nights grew so long

Oh oh how could I let you get the best of me

I was just beginning

 

I have a choice

You made yours

I know I don't wanna hurt anymore

So I'm done looking back

Cause some things don't last

It was the hardest thing to give you up

But I'm gonna part with the past

 

Oh one thing lead to the next

How could I have ever guessed

The passion of your kiss would be long gone soon

Was naive to say what love was

Now all of the others

Won't surpass the expectations that have been set by you

I can't believe it was so easy

For you to watch me leaving

Now all of my lovers just resemble your tune

None of them seem to fit

They come and go, I cry a bit

Most of them I get over quick

But not you

Oh oh I can't believe it's been so long

Oh oh do you ever even think of me

How could I have missed it

 

I have a choice

You made yours

I know I don't wanna hurt anymore

So I'm done looking back

Cause some things don't last

It was the hardest thing to give you up

But I'm gonna part with the past

It’s actually @AmorProhibido’s song, but I’m sure she will appreciate your kind words 

[Paulacristina87]

This is another beautiful song Axatc, I love your tone, very poetic

Oh sorry, my kudos for AmorProhibido, I don't come here very often, I got confused lol

Thank you. I was feeling vulnerable posting my lyrics, because I haven't shared them with very many people. So your comments mean the world to me. Thank you so much!

[Paulacristina87]

Thank you for your kind words, you are very sweet  I understand that feeling so well, I've been writing for a really long time but only recently I started sharing my work in a public way. It takes a while to overcome insecurities and be exposed to the opinion of others. But I'm glad you felt ready to share these two beautiful pieces xD
