I finally finished it. I've been working on these lyrics for a while, and I'm very proud of how they turned out. Please give me your opinions. I wake in the morning with the sun in my eye I wonder why the world seems so terrified of a stranger walking through the sand He just wants to walk around and see his land I've lost everything But I don't want it back All I want Is a chance to push Death back [Chorus] I know I'm not perfect, hell, I know I'm a lie Just the bottom of the bottle Is never enough for a guy I may be condemned but I want to try Just give me a minute for me to say goodbye [/Chorus] I ask my Priest Give me a confession But maybe I'm not worthy of this forgiving session Lord, can you tell me How to clean a soul ? Can anything be done Before I hear the bell toll? [Chorus] I know I'm not perfect, hell, I know I'm a lie Just the bottom of the bottle Is never enough for a guy I may be condemned but I want to try Just give me a minute for me to say goodbye [/Chorus] And in my final hour I see Death himself He asks for my hand But I say I'll keep it to myself I swear I'll live on Even if I die alone I'll make my judgement So you can make your own [Chorus] I know I'm not perfect, hell, I know I'm a lie Just the bottom of the bottle wasn't enough for this guy I may have been condemned but I wanted to try Thanks for giving me the minute for me to say goodbye [/Chorus]
Lemme know when a record deal is signed... Or when you've sold the song to someone else, and made a ****load of money off of it. I want some. Oo
Here's one I wrote just now. I'd say this is a work in progress, but tell me how it's going so far. ''She's That Chip In The Pile'' Like every man's nightmare she makes you take a wild risk And like everyone's dream she has tnhat angel-like bliss She came from a place or town that's too far away I'll go ahead and thank my God ,at least he gave me one day And you know I know that she's worth it... [Chorus] Because she's that chip in the pile, baby And she makes all the rest look so dainty I'll throw down my Ace on the table [/Chorus] I'll take them all out If I have to throw them out and I'll take her with me if I'm able Well, when she looks at me with those eyes Blue like the ocean and wide lik the tide I'll go ahead and spit on the Devil And I'll say to God: Thanks for being on my side And when she comes back here to talk to me She has that voice that's like sweetest wind kissing the trees And you know that I know she's worth it... [Chorus] Because she's that chip in the pile, baby And she makes all the rest look so hazy I'll throw my Ace down on the table I'll take them all out Even if I have to throw them out and I'll take her with me if I'm able [/Chorus] And we're riding off together in the sun I played the most dangerous game of all and somehow I won I pray that she'll stay with me forever Because we all know time goes slow when you're in love.
If I had a camera, I would. Settle for the newer, instead ''In The Gutter'' Simple days, for simple men When will the ignorance come to an end Just look around See the people in town When their luck is not found That's when their livelihood drowned [Chorus] We see all things happening, both happy and sad But only we can tell what's good or is bad Maybe if you lift your head and see hope is not dead, Then, maybe then we'll get out of the flutter of panic today that we call the gutter [/Chorus] You see a man say that he'll do what he can Then you will notice the gun in his hand Well, you cannot fight this fire with fire or in the end you'll see that you burned down the land [Chorus] We see all types of things happening Both happy and sad But only we can tell Which is good or is bad Maybe if you lift your head and see hope is not dead Then maybe we'll get out of that flutter of panic today that call the gutter [/Chorus] And finally we stand here, pround and tall If we stay like this, there's no way we'll fall So ready your voices and open your hearts And let them be heard, in places of all parts [Chorus] We see all types of things happening Both happy and sad But only we can tell Which is good or is bad Maybe if you lift your head and see hope is not dead Then maybe we'll get out of that flutter of panic today that call the gutter [/Chorus]
