Obviously I'm new here! Writing has always been a passion of mine, along with singing, but I've always had trouble actually putting an entire song together. I'll either get a melody, lyrics, or the music (guitar) but never all 3 to compose an entire song. But I'm doing my best at making myself write every day to see what comes of anything. I'm much better at poetry.

Anyways, here's a little something I did today... To be honest, I'm not a huge fan of it. I hate songs that are so obviously about love/suffering, like this one kind of is. Makes me feel like it's been heard before, you know? But we all have to start somewhere I guess. I have a melody in mind, too, so it might be a difficult read if you can't hear it being sung. Sorry if the way it's written is confusing... Any advice would be awesome.

Untitled:

Verse 1
Take it all back, start fresh
Think it over
I'm needing luck, like a four leaf
Clover

And when it all
Comes crumbling down
I'm hoping it's you
Who'll be around

Chorus
It's always me
Against the storm
Windshield's stronger
Than ever before

Don't give up on me
Now, just wait it all out
Pull me from the flash flood
I'd do it alone if I could

Verse 2
Shine a little brighter, try hard
Never back away
Tell me twice, maybe three
That you're here to stay

And when it seems
It'll never get better
Something changes
Like a shift in weather

Chorus

Bridge
Outside it's raining
Within these walls, we're breaking
I can't force myself to see
This weaker side of me
You tell me that I'm strong
And I've known all along
It's not impossible to survive
Throw fears away and dive
In

And then I guess chorus again.


Thanks for reading if you did. I don't think it's that great, so any advice/criticism/whatever would be much appreciated.
