Re: Songwriting Contest!
ill enter
damage to me
How didnt I see it coming
One minute youre here
And now your gone
People stood watching
Like I had done something wrong
I close my eyes
And keep the tears locked inside
Cause I cant let them show
and let everybody know
cant you see the damage you have done
to me - to me
you keep me up night
trying to think whats right
trying to think of me
look what youve doon to me
people fall everyday
i was just to blown away
by that angel look on your face
that made me love everyday
how could I be so blind
to let you take my light
i once had a fire inside
now its all ash
because you blew its light
cant you see the damage you have done
to me to me
you keep me up night
trying to think whats right
trying to think of me
look what youve done to me
at the end of the day
your just another sad face
another friend gone..
what do I do wrong

Re: Songwriting Contest!
This is a song I only just finished writing, so I'm sorry if it's not perfect.
It was hard to write, cuz I felt like crying.
And...yeah.
Should’ve said (a long time ago)
I wrote you a letter today
Explaining everything
Starting from the day I met you
I wrote you a letter today
Full of everything I want to say
I can’t to your face, but I want to
And I hope you’re not mad at me after this
I hope you can forgive me, for causing all those problems
(Chorus)
And I realise now it wasn’t my fault
I don’t know if it was even yours
Could have been a misunderstanding
It ended with a crash landing
I jumped head first
The landing hurt
And there’s so many things I want to say
But I can’t when we’re standing face to face
We never have and never will see eye to eye
I realise now I should’ve said goodbye
(A long time ago)
I wrote you a letter today
Asking why you hurt me
If it was done intentionally
I wrote you a letter today
I might show you, maybe
If I think you’ll listen to me
And I hope you’ll still talk to me after this
I hope you’ll forgive me, even though I caused you so many problems
(Repeat Chorus)
And I’m sorry
But you should be too
And I didn’t mean
Half the things I said to you
And there’s so many
Things I regret
So many things I shouldn’t
And should’ve said
And I realise now it wasn’t my fault
I’m pretty sure it wasn’t even yours
It was a big misunderstanding
It ended with my crash landing
I jumped head first
The landing hurt
And there’s so many things left I still want to say
But I don’t think any time in the future we’ll be standing face to face
We never have and never will see eye to eye
I realise now I should’ve said goodbye
(A long time ago)
I should’ve said, a long time ago
I should’ve said I loved you
I should’ve said a long time ago
You should’ve said for me not to
So many things I should’ve said to you
A long time ago

Re: Songwriting Contest!
Hi!!This is my song for Round 1:)
Him Instead
(Verse 1)
My heart is somewhere else
boy, don´t you try to confess
something that really, deeply hurts
I know you won´t understand
I can´t help myself
but another one
dominates my heart!
(Chorus)
Someone please take me out of this
I can´t anymore hold my breath
Last night your message blown my head
Even tough,
I know,
taking it slow
I will see him instead!
(Verse 2)
Morning, the air is dull
thinking if you call
But I wish you won´t
cause someone else is in
the back of my door!
(Chorus)
Someone please take me out of this
I can´t anymore hold my breath
Last night your message blown my head
Even tough,
I know,
taking it slow
I will see him instead!
(Verse 3)
Baby, can´t you see
you don´t belong with me
My mind is out of control
I can´t handle who I recall...
(Chorus)
Someone please take me out of this
I can´t anymore hold my breath
Last night your message blown my head
Even tough,
I know,
taking it slow
I will see him instead!

Re: Songwriting Contest!
Alright, here's my entry for Round 1!!! Hope you like it!! It's all true :)
If My Life Was A Story
By: staybeautiful137, Written 12/29/12
If my life was a story
I'd meet you on the 13th page
You already had a girl and
Barely noticed me anyways
But it's funny how you saw me
That fateful day when I transformed
A loner to a beautiful girl
One that would enter your world
CHORUS:
On the 15th page you kissed me
On the 18th you held me tight
On the 21st you wiped my tears away
Said I was your star burning bright
I don't know the ending yet
But I hope you're in all I do
Cause if my life was a story
It begins and ends with you
The pages before you are empty
Blank with no words to say
But I remember when I met you
That was the very first day
And I hope on the 41st
We both say 'I do'
I can feel you darling
Don't you feel me too?
CHORUS:
On the 15th page you kissed me
On the 18th you held me tight
On the 21st you wiped my tears away
Said I was your star burning bright
I don't know the ending yet
But I hope you're in all I do
Cause if my life was a story
It begins and ends with you
BRIDGE:
We'll have a little baby girl
She'll steal our hearts and light our world
Oh but if my life was a story
The main characters would be you and me
CHORUS:
On the 15th page you kissed me
On the 18th you held me tight
On the 21st you wiped my tears away
Said I was your star burning bright
I don't know the ending yet
But I hope you're in all I do
Cause if my life was a story
It begins and ends with you
Oh cause if my life was a story
I'd meet you on the 13th page
If my life were a story
I'd love you on every page

Re: Songwriting Contest!
Hi!(:
Round 1
--
Let's Celebrate (With A Toast)
I wish i was a ghost
So i could hide away and you would
Never see me
And i wish i knew who it was you needed the most
So let's celebrate with a toast
To you
Fake smiles and masked pain
Plenty of secrets and lies to tame
So let's celebrate with a toast
You whisper riddles and spread secrets
But i can read between the lines
And here we are and you
Wish you were invisible this time
So let's celebrate with a toast
To you
Fake smiles and masked pain
Plenty of secrets and lies to tame
So let's celebrate with a toast
They know all your secrets
I can tell you lies
So let's celebrate with a toast
To you
Fake smiles and masked pain
Plenty of secrets and lies to tame
So let's celebrate with a toast
We can celebrate with a toast to the game.

Re: Songwriting Contest!
Hi! This s my entry, it's about a relationship that ended so suddenly you didn't have the chance to say goodbye and you didn't stop loving that person:)
Love in the dark
Verse 1: frost covered the ground that night
i can't forget it, no matter how hard i try
engraved in memory for all of time
your words, still bouncing round in my mind
your footsteps pounded my heart as you ran
away from me, from us, from all we had
Chorus: and ever since then, ice has taken over my heart
and ever since then, i have been falling apart
without you, im nothing but empty heart, empty arms
without your love to guide me home
i'm lost alone in the dark
cause i never stopped loving you
even when you broke my heart
and now it's just love, love in the dark.
Verse 2: still, i find myself thinking about you
about that night, i watched as our love fell through
even now that you're gone, left nothing but your ghost behind
when i search and i search, darling its still you i find
and i wonder, if you hadn't run scared at the slightest sign of trouble
would you still be here in my arms, instead of this rubble?
Chorus: and ever since then, ice has taken over my heart
and ever since then, i have been falling apart
without you, im nothing but empty heart, empty arms
without your love to guide me home
i'm, lost alone in the dark
cause i never stopped loving you
even when you broke my heart
and now it's just love, love in the dark.
Bridge: and now i wonder! if you ever loved me like i love you!
oh and baby, i wonder if i will ever forgive you
i can't forget all the times that i cried!
cause you're still here like a thorn in my side!
Chorus: and ever since then, ice has taken over my heart
and ever since then, i have been slowly falling apart!
without you, i am nothing!
i am a frozen heart
without your love to guide me home
i'll be lost forever, never forgetting
cause you left before i could even tell you what you meant to me
and now you'll never see...
that i never stopped loving you
even when you broke my heart
and now it's just love, love, love in the cold and lonely dark!
Chorus: and ever since then, ice has taken over my heart
and ever since then, i have been falling apart
without you, im nothing but empty heart, empty arms
without your love to guide me home
i'm, lost alone in the dark
cause i never stopped loving you
even when you broke my heart
and now it's just love, love in the dark.
Outro: frost covered the ground that night.
Thank you Taylor, you made things change for me...

Re: Songwriting Contest!
Written 3rd November 2012
22 Streets
You live 22 streets across town
It'll take me some time to drive down
I'm hoping for some traffic lights
A car crash, anything that might
Slow down time
Slow down this ride
Imagining what you'll say
Something cruel said quietly
We've been holding
Onto nothing
For far too long
Now, it's all wrong
We were happy
In our routine
But that's not enough for me
Love shouldn't be in shades of cream
I'm changing the radio station
Frantic for any relaxation
I can draw from this dark scene
Yesterday that grass looked green
Not tonight
Not in this light
And you'll say it quietly
But I've heard it in my mind already
We've been holding
Onto nothing
For far too long
Now, it's all wrong
We were happy
In our routine
But that's not enough for me
Love shouldn't be in shades of cream
Five left of those 22
Stop to look at the statue
On the corner
That you adore
But I've never liked
One more way to waste time
Then it's looking at me with your eyes
And saying, like it's ever so wise
We've been holding
Onto nothing
For far too long
Now, it's all wrong
We were happy
In our routine
But that's not enough for me
Love shouldn't be in shades of cream
After 22 streets
I stop the car
In your driveway
Feeling incomplete
I walk to where you are
And brace myself for what you'll say -

Re: Songwriting Contest!
This is a song I only just finished writing, so I'm sorry if it's not perfect.
It was hard to write, cuz I felt like crying.
And...yeah.
Should’ve said (a long time ago)
I wrote you a letter today
Explaining everything
Starting from the day I met you
I wrote you a letter today
Full of everything I want to say
I can’t to your face, but I want to
And I hope you’re not mad at me after this
I hope you can forgive me, for causing all those problems
(Chorus)
And I realise now it wasn’t my fault
I don’t know if it was even yours
Could have been a misunderstanding
It ended with a crash landing
I jumped head first
The landing hurt
And there’s so many things I want to say
But I can’t when we’re standing face to face
We never have and never will see eye to eye
I realise now I should’ve said goodbye
(A long time ago)
I wrote you a letter today
Asking why you hurt me
If it was done intentionally
I wrote you a letter today
I might show you, maybe
If I think you’ll listen to me
And I hope you’ll still talk to me after this
I hope you’ll forgive me, even though I caused you so many problems
(Repeat Chorus)
And I’m sorry
But you should be too
And I didn’t mean
Half the things I said to you
And there’s so many
Things I regret
So many things I shouldn’t
And should’ve said
And I realise now it wasn’t my fault
I’m pretty sure it wasn’t even yours
It was a big misunderstanding
It ended with my crash landing
I jumped head first
The landing hurt
And there’s so many things left I still want to say
But I don’t think any time in the future we’ll be standing face to face
We never have and never will see eye to eye
I realise now I should’ve said goodbye
(A long time ago)
I should’ve said, a long time ago
I should’ve said I loved you
I should’ve said a long time ago
You should’ve said for me not to
So many things I should’ve said to you
A long time ago

Re: Songwriting Contest!
My entry! 100% true haha :D
Girl At The Till
Verse 1:
Long lazy summer days
You, your sisters and me
Lying on the grass on beach towels
As happy as kids can be
I looked up to you
Like I looked up to the stars
You were always here, always near
Never too far
Pre-chorus:
And now you're looking at me like that
It all comes flooding back
Chorus:
All those days you looked after me
I was seven and you were fourteen
You treated me like a little sister
Now you're grown up, on your gap year
Haven't seen you since you disappeared
And as I'm paying for my magazine
I run my fingers through my hair, stand perfectly still
And then you say my name and I realise, you're the girl at the till
Verse 2:
I remember your room
How it almost had two floors
And you hung little glass beads
In front of your door
I wanted to be just like you
Cos to me you were so cool
I loved that you treated me grown-up
And listened to my tales of school
Pre-chorus:
And now you're looking at me like that
The memories come flooding back
Chorus
All those days you looked after me
I was seven and you were fourteen
You treated me like a little sister
Now you're grown up, on your gap year
Haven't seen you since you disappeared
And as I'm paying for my magazine
I run my fingers through my hair, stand perfectly still
And then you say my name and I realise, you're the girl at the till
Bridge:
Then that day we moved away
Saw you once again but that was it
I thought of you on your birthday
And remembered all the things we did
Pre-chorus:
And now you're looking at me like that
I remember you always had my back
Chorus:
All those days you looked after me
Never said I was too old for barbie
You treated me like a little sister
Now you're grown up, on your gap year
Haven't seen you since you disappeared
And as I'm paying for my magazine
I run my fingers through my hair, stand perfectly still
And then you say my name and I realise, you're the girl at the till

Re: Songwriting Contest!
Here's my entry! It's called Angel. :)
Verse 1
You, with your tousled brown hair,
With your eyes that would melt right into mine,
With your breath that smelled like
Peppermint and I
Loved you more than the wide open sky
Chorus
But now, now I'm alone
In a cold, empty world
No strong arms to hold me tight,
No smile to light up my soul
You were my angel before you left
Before the clouds rolled in
And now I wait for an angel who
will never appear again
Verse 2
Your eyes danced with mischief and love,
Your laugh was the sun's bright ray
You spun me around,
Lifted my feet off the ground,
You were the reason I woke up each day
Chorus
But now, now I'm alone
In a cold, empty world
No strong arms to hold me tight,
No smile to light up my soul
You were my angel before you left
Before the clouds rolled in
And now I wait for an angel who
will never appear again
Bridge
Through the peppermint kisses
Through the laughter and tears
Through the dreams and the wishes,
The hopes and the fears
Through the roses you left
On my window each day -
All the time you were here.
And my angel is gone
Flown far away
And I am left here
Chorus
Now, now I'm alone
In a cold, empty world
No strong arms to hold me tight,
No smile to light up my soul
You were my angel before you left
Before the clouds rolled in
And now I wait for an angel who
will never appear again
Please PM me when the results are up! Oh, and if I win anything can I have Topaz, not BeautifulTragedy, on the winner's graphic? Thanks! :)
