Here's my entry!
Broken

VERSE ONE
Making time in my mind for you
It really was a full time job
You cluttered up all of my thoughts
I couldn’t breathe with your arms around me
You constricted my mobility
Held me in place with a single word
But I’m breaking out
I’m setting fire to the memories

CHORUS
And here I am letting you go
I’m tired of feeling so helpless
Here you are so confused
By what I’m saying
But just know-o-o-o
That those chains are broken

VERSE TWO
Your face permanently etched into my mind
Your words somehow seem to find
The worst possible time to remind me of what we had
But sometimes in life people learn to let go
And sometimes in life people realize what’s wrong
And baby we’re not right

BRIDGE
Say hello to goodbye
Say goodbye to me
My heart is my own
And finally I’m free

CHORUS
And here I am letting you go
I’m tired of feeling so helpless
Here you are so confused
By what I’m saying
But just know-o-o-o
That those chains are broken

Round One entry (free) :)

Writer's note: this is about my teachers and my school and everybody all wanting me to know exactly where i'm going in life and to get perfect grades, and to live up to all their expectations that i know i could never possibly fulfil, and i just want to break free of all the pressure. :P

verse one
Sitting alone, all alone, staring out my window
Wondering where my life is someday gonna go
Hoping someone's going to tell me how to know
Cos its so hard to say
Maybe one day, imma be a politician
or an actress, or perhaps a pro musician
I don't know what to do and i dont know what to say

chorus
Maybe I don't wanna choose now
Maybe i just want to let things stay the same
Maybe I don't wanna say now,
Maybe i just wanna let things go my way
I know you don't agree with me
But theres one thing i've gotta say to you:
I'm not you, and your not me

verse two
Everybody's trying to tell me how to live
Trying to sort my life, as if its like a sieve
'if i don't go quickly everything will give'
well, thats not how i roll!
What if i don't want to decide here and now?
Maybe i don't want to decide why and how
I'm just a kid, I'll let things slide
Things'll sort out in a while

chorus
Maybe I don't wanna choose now
Maybe i just want to let things stay the same
Maybe I don't wanna say now,
Maybe i just wanna let things go my way
I know you don't agree with me
But theres one thing i've gotta say to you:
I'm not you, and your not me

bridge
And what if i'm not an a-star girl
what if im not smarter than the world?
maybe i don't WANT to be
Maybe i'm just me....

(finish with chorus repeat, softer and quieter with guitar strums once each).

Here's my entry! It's called "Never Gonna Give Up". I hope you like it! :)

Never Gonna Give Up

Verse 1
I remember the first day we met
And I remembered that I’d never forget
The way you smiled at me
I never knew that you knew my love
You didn’t know that I’d push and shove
To get to you
I remembered that I’d never forget
I’d fight for your love
I’d fight for your love
Chorus
Baby, I’m never gonna give up for your love
I’m never gonna stop fighting
I’ll just push and shove
I know in my heart
How much you mean to me
No matter how much it’ll tear me apart
How can I get to you through all these people?
I know that I won’t give up
I’m never gonna give up for love
I’ll just push and shove
I’m never gonna give you up
Verse 2
I’ll make sure no one else loves you
Like I do
I’ll just keep fighting because I can’t forget you
I can’t get you at of my mind
I can leave here, but it’s too hard to find you
You don’t know how much you mean to me
And I can’t lose you yet
I can’t lose you yet {Repeat Chorus}
Bridge
What’s it gonna take to get you?
What’s it gonna take to find you?
No matter how much I risk
I just have to have you
It’d be too heartbreaking to lose you
It’d be too heartbreaking to lose you
Long Live 11.21.11

Caught in a trap

Verse 1
You look at me
I look at you
You turn your gaze
I try to find you
But you're lost
In an endless maze

Say you don't care
You're all right
Everything's fine
But come on!
Even I can tell
When she's crossed the line

Chorus:
She's just playing around
Just kidding she said
But she always haunts you
Sometimes you wish you were dead
And you pretend you're happy
When she creates a gap
Between you and me forever
Yeah, you're caught in a trap

Verse 2
Secretly you hate her
But you act like it's love
Even when she puts you into tears
It's been going on like this
Since you first met her
You've been crying every day for years

Tell me you're great
Tell me you're doing well
But I can see through
You're being tortured
Every single second
She's slowly killing you

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
You run up to your room
You've finally had it
You're not going back

You don't really love her
You never will
You're not going back

You're done with pretending
It's time to come clean
You're not going back

You tell her the truth
Come running to me
'Cause you're not going back

Chorus (Version 2)

She was just playing around
Just kidding she said
But she always haunted you
Sometimes you wished you were dead
And you pretended you were happy
When she created a gap
Between you and me but it's gone
With me you're not caught in a trap

With me you're not caught in a trap

Kind of nervous. I'm only 11 so don't make fun of me! Okay, it's called "On My Way."


What is going on?
We used to be so close.
But now we're far away &
I don't know what to say
What happened here?
We used to sit side by side
Laughing; talking.
Finishing eachother's sentences
Well, I guess it's over now.
It's finally come to an end, now.
You put me up, you push me down,
Please choose your way.
I am not you're little puppet now,
I am on my way!

Please understand
We can never be the same
With all the stuff
You put me through
I don't know
If I can forgive you.
Well, I guess it's over now.
It's finally come to an end, now.
You put me up, you push me down,
Please choose your way,
I am not your little puppet now,
I am on..... my.... waaaayyy...


THE END.

Hey here is my song it's called "Because of You"

(verse 1)
You, you’re the reason why
She doesn’t love me
You, because of you
We have been so lonely
You, you have hurt
Her so much she cries to me
She, she wants you and
It makes moving on hard for me

(Chorus)
You did wrong but she’s
Still wrapped around you
You messed up everything
She doesn't even have a clue
But I’ve been left on the outside
To do nothing but look through
Everything is twisted and
It’s all because of you
Ooh oooh ooh
Because of you
Ooh oooh ooh
Because of

(verse 2)
You, I can’t seem to
Let go of what should be us
Because of you, she’s so blind
She can’t see the other side of
You, cuz all she sees is
A true man whose love is true
But you, you’re the reason why
She’s tortured every day in school

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)
Because of you
I’m nothing more than a friend
Because of you
I feel this pain that’ll never end
Because of you
She will never know the truth
Because of you
It’s all because of you

(2nd chorus)
You did wrong but she’s
Still in love with you
I’ve been forced for 9 months
Wondering what I’ll do
It’s a shame she doesn’t know about
All the other girls that you’ve screwed
This isn’t how it’s supposed to be
And it’s all because of you
Ooh oooh ooh
Because of you
Ooh oooh ooh
Because of you
Ooh oooh ooh
Because of you
Ooh oooh ooh
Because of

(Outro)
You, you’ve ruined us
And you don’t think you’re wrong
You, you think you had the last laugh
But I did when I wrote this song

Here's my entry! This song is about the girl who doesn't have any friends, she's all alone, every day, and no one else notices or cares. And it's saying Why is everyone like that? Why won't they sit with her, talk to her? Why?

Why

Verse 1
She sits alone every lunchtime
She feels out of place
She sits alone with the silence
No one's looking at her face

No one understand's her
When she says that she can't hide
No one even notices
When she cries

Chorus
There's a girl out there with the lost stare
She can't help but attract all the glares
There's a girl out there who ain't got a prayer
Cause no one really cares
If she's broken,
she's hurting,
she's fragile,
she's lost inside,
And I wonder why

Verse 2
Everyone's against her
They say "she's doing it for the attention"
Just cause what she's going through
Is something she'd rather not mention

Chorus
There's a girl out there with the lost stare
She can't help but attract all the glares
There's a girl out there who ain't got a prayer
Cause no one really cares
If she's broken,
she's hurting,
she's fragile,
she's lost inside,
And I wonder why
And i wonder why

Bridge
Well they hurt her, they tease her,
They break her, they leave her,
They change her into
A completely different person
They don't realise
What they don't realise is that
Some day they might be
The girl out there with the lost stare, yeah
The girl with the lost stare, yeah

Chorus
There's a girl out there with the lost stare
She can't help but attract all the glares
There's a girl out there who ain't got a prayer
Cause no one really cares
If she's broken,
she's hurting,
she's fragile,
she's lost inside,
And I wonder why
And I wonder why

And I wonder why

Hope you like it!

My song for the first round:

The Wind

He wrongs his fingers through her hair
and she looks beautiful.
She turns her head to the skye
but she doesn`t see anything.

She doesn't know where he has been
But she knows that he'll come back.
She doesn't know where he's going to
but she knows he's always there.

The wind, the wind, the wind
is invisible but you can see him.
The wind, the wind, the wind
everybody knows what he is
but doesn't really know him really.

He pasts the high and the lowlands
and he sees the land and sea.
he sees crying people and laughter
sees people die and born.

He moves the clouds in every second
he moves the trees and his leaves
he moves the straw and makes it fly
he takes some things and gives them back.

The wind, the wind, the wind
is invisible but you can see him.
The wind, the wind, the wind
everybody knows what he is
but doesn't really know him really.

I can't this world anymore
Everybody wants me to be what I'm not.
I've lied, I've broken hearts
and I can not even controle my own head anymore.

Please give me a chance, to come with you
Please don't let me wait that long.
It's not possible to survive
but you know, you know how I'd stay alive.

I want him to move me too.
I want him to make me fly.
Take me to an other world.

This is my song called CHANCE it is about my dream of becoming a successful singer/songwriter

Pre-Chorus:

Well, everything else just dissapears
when I'm at a place like this.
I can see the crowd forming
And it's becoming clearer to me
That this is exactly who I'm supposed to be.

Chorus:
And what I'd give to make you smile,
but I never said that it wouldn't take some time.
But if you gave me the chance
I'd run with it.
Woahohoh ohoh oh woah
woah ohoh ohoh oh oh awhoah (sorry about that it is hard to get that in writing)

Verse 1
And obviously not everyone
Is gonna like where you come from.
But someday I'll prove to you
That this isn't some crazy, idea
That's taken root because trust me,
This is something that I'm supposed to do.

Chorus:
And what I'd give to make you smile
But I never said that it wouldn't take sometime.
But if you gave me the chance
I'd run with it.
Woahohoh oh oh ohoh woah
Woahohoh oh oh oh oh awhoah oh oh

Verse 2
Nobody, ever promised that things would be easy
And nobody ever promised that things would be perfect.
But to get even close to where you want to be.
You have to,
Take a chance.
And burst out of that box that you've been hiding in.
