Default OK´s Songwriting Adventures!

Hey folks!

I´m new to the forums so let me introduce myself first.
Im 16 years old from Germany and just started an indie/rock band with a good friend.

So here are a few songs I´ve written so far. Hope you enjoy them and leave some feedback.

====
"Happiness"

Woke up from a dream tonight.
I could not sleep.
Dreamed of countrys in fear,
a fear you can not keep.
Saw people dieing, ´cause they did not
believe their lies.
Saw people crying, that couldn´t even
harm a fly.

But I will be fine,
as long as I don´t speak my mind.
I will be fine,
´cause I will keep my thoughts inside.

Today it was exciting,
I tried to lie.
Hope they won´t catch me,
because of thoughtcrime.
The tortured children, the cameras and
the policeman.
I hope someday, all this will come
to an end.

And I will be fine,
as long as I don´t speak my mind.
I will be fine,
´cause I will keep my thoughts inside.

Now there´s the kitchen window,
that I look through.
I see my dream is beginning,
to become true.

"Raindrop"

Breathe in. Stand up. The oxygen dives deep into my lungs.
But the air is filled with a poison. The toxin is now freely circulating
in my body. It hurts as it cools all parts of me. My bones and soul.
Somehow I finally feel alive, a little to late now. Look down and around.
The graffiti combines art and waste. This voice has never been seen
by travellers who pass underneath it at 50 miles per hour.
I´m no longer in hurry though.

Through raindrops I see you standing,
under the bridge.
Unable to speak one little word,
mouth wide shut.

You spot me. Shout. Cry. I don´t understand anything you say.
I´m slightly loosing control about myself. Is that what you want?
This can´t be what you call love. The bridge is old, majestic, but
weathered. Such irony. Time is slow, our love is low. Time. You told
me once that it wouldn´t change your mindset.
But obviously you were wrong.

Through raindrops I see you standing,
under the bridge.
Unable to speak one little word,
mouth wide shut.

Fade away. Loose balance. The trees are turning into grey needles breaking
out of massive concrete. It´s getting colder. But I had no other way to get
through this mess. Your eyes are like small fireballs now, while everything
else gets blurred. I can hear warm voices calling my name now and there is a bright light in front of me.
My body sinks to the ground.


Through raindrops I see you standing,
under the bridge.
Unable to speak one little word,
mouth wide shut.

"Won´t Be Fine"

I want to declare a war.
I just don´t know what it will be for.
I wanna tell the truth.
Instead of that, I will just let loose.
(Just let loose, just let loose)

I´m holding my breath, until the time runs out.
I´m lost and alone, not for the first time.
I hope that someday you gonna catch my fall.
Although I know, that I won´t be fine...

I got decisions to make.
About people I don´t like coz they speak so fake.
I want to get some luck.
I always seem to just get stuck.
(Just get stuck, just get stuck)

I´m holding my breath, until the time runs out.
I´m lost and alone, not for the first time.
I hope that someday you gonna catch my fall.
Although I know, that I won´t be fine...
