Please, critique these lyrics!!!
 
This song is called The Punch-line. It's the first one I've completed. It's supposed to be a pop song but it has a Kid Cudi style rhyme scheme. I was planning to sing talk it.


The Punch-line

(Verse 1)
I'm always the punch line, since grade six
'Cause I told all the kids that I would be a huge hit
I didn't act right, was always different
When you're not a duplicate, you're the biggest target
(Pre-Chorus)
In my alone time, that was everyday
I was online stalking all the celebrities
Like...
(Chorus)
Wanna be like you, on big TVs
Wanna make electronic symphonies
Celebrity life is what I always dream
Think about you everyday...
Flashing-flashing lights in the streets
When I close my eyes it's all I see
I'm the paparazzi's newest big thing
You can snap me everyday...
(Verse 2)
I'm still the punch line, but I got used to it
Sometimes I laughed when I was being taunted
I was nervous, never knew what to say
For my fear of being bullied finally took over me-ay
Pre-Chorus)
In my alone time, which is everyday
I'm online stalking the celebrities
(Bridge)
So I got lost never to be found again
So high, might using be hallucinogens
Losing my mind, never get to come down
And it ain't that fun being trapped in the clouds
(Pre-Chorus)
In my alone time, which is everyday
I'm online stalking the celebrities
Like...
(Chorus)
Wanna be like you, on big TVs
Wanna make electronic symphonies
Celebrity life is what I always dream
Think about you everyday...
Flashing-flashing lights in the streets
When I close my eyes it's all I see
I'm the paparazzi's newest big thing
You can snap me everyday...


I bet it's got a million mistakes. Give me your hardest criticism.

These lyrics have potential. Might wish to do some revising. Thanks for sharing here

I agree with the comment above, these lyrics could be something special with some editing fixes.

I agree with the potential but it's too depressing to hear. If you made it more generic or symbolic it could be a winner.

i like your lyrics and i understand how you felt when writing this song.
i used to be bullied in school and well people can be cruel you just gotta
ignore their comments and don't let them upset you.

P.S. i will happily read any songs you write in the future :)
