Head like a sieve
 
Burdens fill the gaps
The sun shines through my body
With my back to it
I run from everybody
Pieces of a boy
The shadow of a man
Caught between the two
Lost without a plan

Tears in the message centre
The old mans been there since December

And I know we'll make it in the end

Effort consumes my soul
Realisation is a bother
Facing outward to the world
Not looking at the problem
I'll stare you in the eye
And nothing will have changed
My face forces a smile
but broken I remain

Tears in the message centre
The old mans been there since December

And I know we'll make it in the end
I'll try my best and that's all I can give
But it's hard when your heads like a sieve...
It's hard when your heads like a sieve...




You might not agree, but I'm going to be ****y and say this is my favourite piece of work I've done in a while. Please comment...

Love the title ^

I was actually a bit indifferent about it... wondered whether it would sound like I was throwing it in their just to rhyme...what you think of the actual song?

Has it got a chorus?
If not I like the idea of this being it...

Tears in the message centre
The old mans been there since December
And I know we'll make it in the end
I'll try my best and that's all I can give
But it's hard when your heads like a sieve...
It's hard when your heads like a sieve...


And having read it again several times, I have to say the first verse is brilliant.
Also, I would have picked the line...Pieces Of A Boy, Shadow Of A Man, as the title, despite liking your pick.

It's one of your better ones.
