Re: Songwriting Contest :)
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 -

Re: Songwriting Contest :)
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}

RE: Songwriting Contest :)
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//

Re: Songwriting Contest :)
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
~

RE: Songwriting Contest :)
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-

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

Re: Songwriting Contest :)
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...

Re: Songwriting Contest :)
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
