    here's my entry! :) Hope you like it!

    This Isn’t a Fairytale
    Verse 1
    In my fantasies, you'd be holding onto me
    Holding me in your arms while I cried
    But in the real world I’m sitting here just another girl
    with no one around to dry my eyes
    i can't believe you left and I can't catch my breath
    Why'd i have to go and make such a big mistake
    I could have sworn you were my knight on a white horse
    I guess I had to learn the hard way

    Chorus
    this isn't a fairytale, this ain’t no storybook
    this is real life where there's no hero to save the day
    there is no prince and I sure ain’t no princess
    all the hopes and dreams I had about you and me faded away
    a life of happily ever after isn't real
    don’t know how long it'll take this time for me to heal
    and I don’t got a crown so need to bow
    It’s not like this is a fairytale

    Verse 2
    Cinderella would've never seen this one coming
    a love story ending without happy ever after
    I couldn't believe it when you left me crying
    tears were born from what used to be our laughter
    this wasn't how things were supposed to turn out
    I guess our love story was really a story after all
    it was just a daydream, thought it would be something more
    but it turns out I shouldn't have let myself fall

    Chorus
    this isn't a fairytale, this ain’t no storybook
    this is real life where there's no hero to save the day
    there is no prince and I sure ain’t no princess
    all the hopes and dreams I had about you and me faded away
    a life of happily ever after isn't real
    don’t know how long it'll take this time for me to heal
    and I don’t got a crown so need to bow
    its not like this is a fairytale

    Bridge
    The end is coming fast and there’s no way to stop it
    I can't turn back so I might as well drop it
    all I wanted was for this fairytale to be my life
    but there won't be no prince when the clock strikes midnight

    Chorus
    this isn't a fairytale, this ain’t no storybook
    this is real life where there's no hero to save the day
    there is no prince and I sure ain’t no princess
    all the hopes and dreams I had about you and me faded away
    a life of happily ever after isn't real
    don’t know how long it'll take this time for me to heal
    and I don’t got a crown so need to bow
    It’s not like this is a fairytale

    Outro
    there’s no turning back now
    baby, this is the real end
    I ain’t over making the mistake of dreaming my life
    as a fairytale, a fairytale, that kind of life isn't real
    this isn’t a fairytale

    Hi! Here's my entry, this song is called "Too Late". I hope you like it! (:

    Too Late

    Verse 1

    I wake up and it’s Monday morning
    All I can remember is that I was crying last night
    I didn’t want to remember the words you said on the phone
    I don’t want to even get out of bed now
    It’s just too much for me to handle
    I look in the mirror and my eyes are red
    I’m glad that no one’s here to see me
    And that I’ve been crying
    You tried to take the words back
    But you already said them
    And now they’re stuck there, hanging in the air

    Chorus
    You tried to call me again late last night
    Tried to take it back
    But you were too late, yeah you were too late
    You tried to get me back
    But you were too late, you were too late
    If you came back to my door
    Wishing that you had more
    And I wouldn’t even listen to you
    Because you were too late
    Yeah, you were too late

    Verse 2
    I tried to make through the day
    But I just couldn’t, I just couldn’t
    You were the only one that I could talk to
    About my problems
    And now I’m all alone
    No one to call on the phone
    Now you can’t come back anymore
    Because you’re too late, you’re too late

    Chorus
    You tried to call me again late last night
    Tried to take it back
    But you were too late, yeah you were too late
    You tried to get me back
    But you were too late, you were too late
    If you came back to my door
    Wishing that you had more
    And I wouldn’t even listen to you
    Because you were too late
    Yeah, you were too late


    Bridge
    Now it’s a cold December day
    And the storms coming your way
    As I see the snow out my window
    I think of all the times we were together
    And how you held me tight in your arms
    In your arms
    And how you kept me safe from harm
    And now you’re gone, now you’re gone, oh whoa, oh-oh-oh

    Chorus
    You tried to call me again late last night
    Tried to take it back
    But you were too late, yeah you were too late
    You tried to get me back
    But you were too late, you were too late
    If you came back to my door
    Wishing that you had more
    And I wouldn’t even listen to you
    Because you were too late
    Yeah, you were too late

    Outro
    I wake up on Tuesday morning
    And it’s like I relive that day again
    Were you were too late, yeah you were too late
    To say you’re sorry {End Song}

    Hi! im anna! Thankyou for asking me to check out this songwriting contest(: here is my entry:

    By the way

    {Hidden Message: By the way, thankyou for being my only escape.}

    For the longest time/ i got to be yours/ and you got to be mine/ but now thats all past tonight/ far away now/ we're both in different places/ at different times in our lives/ but i still miss you at the most random of times/ and if i ever ran into you/ here's what i'd be thinking/ maybe even something i should say//

    Chorus:

    Hey/ by the way/ i think about you everyday/ i wonder about you/ and all the things you'd say to me/ if you ever got the opportunity/ by the way/ im still here/ so if your ever wondering about me/ im still me/ by the way/ i hope you dont forget or regret me/ hold me close to your heart/ and by the way/ you should know/ im never too far/ too far/ away/ so don't be afraid to reach out for me//

    Despite everything/ i know you honestly thought you loved me/ after a jump comes a fall/ a perfect landing or a crash right into a wall/ so i hope you see/ that i did what was best for you and me/ there just had to be some kind of ending/ there was no avoiding/ it was heading into no getting around it/ and we thought we knew so much/ but i guess we were both wrong/ because there is no more us//

    Repeat Chorus:

    but Hey/ by the way/ i think about you everyday/ i wonder about you/ and all the things you'd say to me/ if you ever got the opportunity/ by the way/ im still here/ so if your ever wondering about me/ im still me/ by the way/ i hope you dont forget or regret me/ hold me close to your heart/ and by the way/ you should know/ im never too far/ too far/ away/ so don't be afraid to reach out for me//

    {Bridge}:
    By the way/ my hearts still breaking/ and im still making/ everything out to be okay/ by the way/ im still hoping/ im still waiting on the day that we can talk and agree on what went wrong/ by the way/ i should've told you/ how much all the little things you did/ made up for all of it/ but i guess now it's too late/ by the way/ your a beautiful memory/ and i guess you'll remain that way//

    You tried to get me back
    But you were too late, you were too late
    If you came back to my door
    Wishing that you had more
    And I wouldn?t even listen to you
    Because you were too late
    Yeah, you were too late


    Bridge
    Now it?s a cold December day
    And the storms coming your way
    As I see the snow out my window
    I think of all the times we were together
    And how you held me tight in your arms
    In your arms
    And how you kept me safe from harm
    And now you?re gone, now you?re gone, oh whoa, oh-oh-oh

    Chorus
    You tried to call me again late last night
    Tried to take it back
    But you were too late, yeah you were too late
    You tried to get me back
    But you were too late, you were too late
    If you came back to my door
    Wishing that you had more
    And I wouldn?t even listen to you
    Because you were too late
    Yeah, you were too late

    Outro
    I wake up on Tuesday morning
    And it?s like I relive that day again
    Were you were too late, yeah you were too late
    To say you?re sorry {End Song}

    Here's my entry! It's basically about this boy that I met recently and liked (obviously), but he was definitely more into my friend. (which is why it fits into the theme 'heartbreak')
    I hope you like it!

    Candles

    Verse 1
    I walked into the cold on Friday
    Trying to escape the party
    I saw you standing, looking lonely
    I tried to be the one to set you free

    But you only wanted to be with her
    Don't you know that you can't get her
    She only likes you as a friend
    But you don't want that to be the end

    Pre Chorus
    I know you see me
    But not what we could be

    Chorus
    You and I
    Could light up the sky
    And you know I'm right
    So why'd you let me down tonight
    Oh you think you and her
    Could be so much more
    But we would burn longer
    Than the fires of hell
    We could shine brighter
    Than a thousand candles

    Verse 2
    The night I met you was so perfect
    So why'd you have to go and blow it
    By asking her after for her number
    You didn't expect for her to run though

    Pre Chorus
    But after she was gone
    Couldn't you have left her alone, oh

    Chorus
    You and I
    Could light up the sky
    And you know I'm right
    So why'd you let me down tonight
    Oh you think you and her
    Could be so much more
    But we would burn longer
    Than the fires of hell
    We could shine brighter
    Than a thousand candles

    Bridge
    And I know I might not be
    As pretty as her
    But together we would be
    An unstoppable force
    And while she gives you nothing
    I would give you my all
    In the hope that
    We would never fall

    Chorus
    You and I
    Could light up the sky
    And you know I'm right
    So why'd you let me down tonight
    Oh you think you and her
    Could be so much more
    But we would burn longer
    Than the fires of hell
    We could shine brighter
    Than a thousand candles

    Chorus 2 (quieter)
    You and I
    Should give it a try
    Yeah you know I'm right
    I wouldn't let you down tonight
    Oh I know you and her
    Just wouldn't work
    But we would burn longer
    Than the fires of hell
    We could shine brighter
    Than a thousand candles

    Unspoken



    Unspoken

    Verse 1:
    It’s pushin’ on ten; I’m starin’ at the wall again.
    The personality in your bright blue eyes
    Still keeps me up at night
    And even now, and even this late, I continue to think about
    Things out of my reach.

    Pre-Chorus: (with a rap feel)
    I dream about the day when you step towards me
    Just to talk to me, just to see me.
    Just to love me for me, so I can be me.
    But I don’t think you’ll do it – you won’t make a move
    So one breath; here I go, if only I could do it
    (pause with lyrics)

    Chorus 1:
    Because the words left unspoken will hurt you the most
    I gather everything in my innermost
    Being and take a step towards you,
    Can’t let fear creep into my mind.
    But I just can’t do it – I won’t let it happen.
    I can’t let you say no.



    Verse 2:
    To be by your side forever, someone has to make a move –
    Why can’t you make a move? Why can’t someone make a move?
    Your blue eyes and your blonde hair get me every time
    They mesmerize me, they draw me in.
    They draw me in, yet I freeze in fear.


    Pre-Chorus: (with a rap feel)
    I dream about the day when you step towards me
    Just to talk to me, just to see me.
    Just to love me for me, so I can be me.
    But I don’t think you’ll do it – you won’t make a move
    So one breath; here I go, I have to do it.

    *Instrumental*

    Chorus 2:
    Because the words left unspoken will hurt you the most
    I gather everything in my innermost
    Being and take a step towards you,
    Won’t let fear creep into my mind.
    But I just have do it – I’ll be okay if it happens.
    I’ll survive if you say no.

    Bridge:
    I haven’t thought about anything else all day,
    I think I know what to do, but then I see you.

    Verse 3:
    My heart speeds up, my walk slows down,
    I’ve planned what I’ll say, but when I see you, I lose all my words.
    I look deep into your blue eyes, the ones that started it all.
    I take a deep breath, open my mouth, smile at you and say-

    She could regret not talking to him. (In my song) I understand if you don't think it fits.

    Here's my Round 1 entry.

    Something I Couldn't See

    V1
    The night you said good-bye
    I sat there on my bedroom floor
    Looking at all the photographs, the letters
    All the memories you threw out the door

    The next day, I'll wake up
    And I'll never stop asking why
    I was so stupid to trust a guy like you
    You hurt me with your believable lies

    Pre-Chorus
    You had me captivated,
    But now I regret it
    Chorus
    Who knew you'd be the one to break my heart
    I thought we'd painted some flawless art
    But you found a problem with the picture
    Something I couldn't see
    But you took that mistake
    And used it to break me

    V2
    Well maybe I am the one to blame
    I never saw through your fake smiles
    And I'm regretting that I never woke up
    My dreams were too good, too much like a child

    Pre-Chorus
    You had me captivated
    But now I regret it
    {Repeat Chorus}

    Bridge
    There's people telling me to move on
    Don't waste time writing songs
    But what else do you do
    When someone you loved, leaves
    It'll be one a.m.
    I don't wanna believe it's the end
    So I'll cry myself, cry myself to sleep

    Chorus
    Who knew you'd be the one to break my heart
    I thought we'd painted some flawless art
    But you found a problem with the picture
    Something I couldn't see
    But you took that mistake
    And used it to break me

    Outro: It was something I couldn't see...

    Thanks for reading!

    But you took that mistake
    And used it to break me

    Outro: It was something I couldn't see...

    Here's my entry!

    Remember

    Remember your face
    As you sat next to me
    Remember my place
    Where it used to be
    On that old sofa in your house
    Remember when you splashed me
    In the pool
    Remember when we thought
    We were so cool
    Cause we had a band and everyone wanted in

    Remember when we thought
    We could make it so far
    Remember when we thought
    We could touch the stars
    Just a brown-eyed boy and a girl
    Alone, together in the world


    Remember when you laughed at me
    Cause I didn't want to see
    That stupid old computer game you played
    Remember that time sitting on the grass
    As we watched all our friends pass
    When we swore we would never change

    Remember when we thought
    We could make it so far
    Remember when we thought
    We could touch the stars
    Just a brown-eyed boy and a girl
    Alone, together in the world


    Remember that phone call she made
    How she told her that Dave
    Was moving on so far away
    I remember my mom holding me
    Cause I couldn't believe
    All my dreams never planned to stay

    Remember how you're so far
    Remember you destroyed my star
    Just a brown-eyed boy and a broken girl
    Alone, apart in the world
    Just a brown-eyed boy and a broken girl
    Alone, apart in the world
