thank you to everybody who entered in the contest! your songs were all amazing!
Now here are the rules:
1. All songs have to be written by the person sending them (obviosly I wouldn't know if it is or isn't, but its good to be honest!)
2. They have to be in by the deadline otherwise I can't accept them
3. Don't post the same song twice otherwise it will only count for one song
4. You can message me to send your songs.... :)
5. HAVE FUN! :P
Remember...sure its a contest but have fun doing it...otherwise its pointless.
Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor ;)

About my old best friend...
I Don’t Know You Anymore
Verse 1
I used to know you like the back of my hand
It’s sad to think you were once my best friend
Saying good-bye was the hardest thing in my life
But, I already knew, my decision was right
Because who you used to be before
Well, it’s just not who you were anymore
Chorus
Because you changed, not for the better
Around you it rained, in sunny weather
And I was sick of being beat down in our mental wars
You became everything you said you wouldn’t
Your games, tried to stop ‘em, but I couldn’t
Trust me; I didn’t wanna slam that door
But, I had to, I don’t know you anymore
Verse 2
Just about every day you took me for granted
Behind my back you were pointing at me and laughin’
You know how hard it is to hear about that?
But I was the one who wanted the cold hard facts
I went home and cried and fell to the kitchen floor
That’s something you would have never done before
Chorus
Because you changed, not for the better
Around you it rained, in sunny weather
And I was sick of being beat down in our mental wars
You became everything you said you wouldn’t
Your games, tried to stop ‘em, but I couldn’t
Trust me; I didn’t wanna slam that door
But, I had to, I don’t know you anymore
Bridge
So don’t bother to call and apologize
I’m learning to see straight through your lies
You became everything you swore you never would
I should have saved you when I could
Chorus
Because you changed, not for the better
Around you it rained, in sunny weather
And I was sick of being beat down in our mental wars
You became everything you said you wouldn’t
Your games, tried to stop ‘em, but I couldn’t
Trust me; I didn’t wanna slam that door
But, I had to, I don’t know you anymore
Outro
The pain burned me right down to the core
But, it ain’t my fault that I don’t know you anymore

Sometimes
Verse
You were there that night
when the stars were gloomy,
when I told you
my life was a roller-coaster
I may never see you again
and your heart came to a stop
you didn't know what to say
you barely made out
"Is this really true?"
Tears rolled out my eyes
as I to-ol-old youuu
Pre-Chorus
'cuz I've been your rock,
for a million years
and you've been my brace
to stand a little taller,
lift my chin a little higher,
what would I do without you?
Chorus
And sometimes, life turns in a way
you'd never expect
sometimes, your best friend
will never see you again
and sometimes, life's not about men
It's about us, together
united forever
'cuz somtimes, sometimes
Verse
We made the last moments last
magical friendship,
enchanting moments I'll never forget
my life was a roller-coaster
I may never see you again
and your heart seemed to race so face
I didn't know what to say
I barely made out
"I'll always love you"
Tears rolled out your eyes
'cuz you know this friendship was true
Pre-Chorus
'cuz I've been your rock,
for a million years
and you've been my brace
to stand a little taller,
lift my chin a little higher,
what would I do without you?
Chorus
And sometimes, life turns in a way
you'd never expect
sometimes, your best friend
will never see you again
and sometimes, life's not about men
It's about us, together
united forever
'cuz somtimes, sometimes
Bridge,
And when I walked the last step,
you left me forever
there wasn't one night
I didn't cry in the bed folds
It's been like a million years,
can't wait to see you again...
Slow Chorus
And sometimes, life turns in a way
you'd never expect
sometimes, your best friend
will never leave you again
and sometimes, life's not about men
It's about us, together
united forever
'cuz somtimes, sometimes
Ohhh, I'll never leave you again...

airplanes flying across the world

hey :) here's my entry!!!
WHITE ROSE
VERSE
I need to sleep now
Can't go back and apologize
Thinking of what I could've done
Closing the door so no one can hear my cries
I bought you a rose
But you didn't take it
You threw it on the road
Got fire and matches
And burned it
CHORUS
I'd give you thirteen roses
But you'd leave them in the rain
Lying there to be blown away
I can still feel the pain
The storm begins to start
And lightning strikes
I'm alone in my house
When the clock strikes 12
And my phone calls and you're asking for me back
But me and my white rose won't allow that
VERSE
Its dawn and I wake up
My eyes are black from my make-up
Still can't believe what he did to me
Wish I could go outside
I'm too afraid
I'd rather hide for the rest of my life
Then face you again
Its dark I go back to bed
The white rose is turning from white to dead
CHORUS
I'd give you thirteen roses
But you'd leave them in the rain
Lying there to be blown away
I can still feel the pain
The storm begins to start
And lightning strikes
I'm alone in my house
When the clock strikes 12
And my phone calls and you're asking for me back
But me and my white rose won't allow that
BRIDGE
Roses are red
And sometimes white
Turned to dead
But, I can't stand to fight
I'm not going to say anything
Till you talk to me first
My dead rose and I are dying in reverse
CHORUS
I'd give you thirteen roses
But you'd leave them in the rain
Lying there to be blown away
I can still feel the pain
The storm begins to start
And lightning strikes
I'm alone in my house
When the clock strikes 12
And my phone calls and you're asking for me back
But me and my white rose won't allow that
OUTRO
But me and my white rose
Are better than you'll ever be
We don't need you in our lives
My white rose is back to life
would you mind please messaging me when the results are up? thank you xx

Your Smile
(chorus)
Catch me if I fall, maybe
Sweep me off my feet
Tell me that you just can't stop thinking about me
Because right now I am hopelessly
Trying not to lose mind
Over your smile
I really don't know how to say this,
But If you'd give me just one chance,
I promise I will be the one
I know you are the one
That's right, that's right, I said it
I don't know how I did it
Normally I just get crazy
When I'm with you, I insanely
Start to lose my mind...
When I see you smile...
(chorus)
So catch me if I fall, maybe
Sweep me off my feet
Tell me that you just can't stop thinking about me
Because right now I am hopelessly
Trying not to lose mind
Over your smile
Oh, no, you caught me staring
I hope I wasn't scaring
You, oh, you, perfect you
I never know what to do
When I am with you I go crazy
I turn stupid, everything gets all dazy
Maybe if I make a move-
Wait, no that's stupid, like I can even move
When I'm watching you
I freeze and I forget, everything, everything but you
Because I start to lose my mind...
When I see you smile...
(chorus)
Catch me if I fall, maybe
Sweep me off my feet
Tell me that you just can't stop thinking about me
Because right now I am hopelessly
Trying not to lose mind
Over your smile
So stop trying to call me back
I can't come back, I can't come back
Once you've come this far, you've lost the path
I'm here with you, I've got your back
Your smile, your smile, is all I see
Once I fall asleep
You're the highlight of my dreams
You're the one I'd never leave
(chorus)
So catch me if I fall, maybe
Sweep me off my feet
Tell me that you just can't stop thinking about me
Because right now I am hopelessly
Trying not to lose mind
Over your smile

Round 1 - Being in Love
Take My Breath Away
Verse 1:
I know you feel the same way
I can see it in your eyes
After all the phone call
And all the smiles
Verse 2:
All the secret letters
All the hours of laughter
Don’t you think we should give it a try?
This can only be right
Pre-Chorus:
The feel of your hands in mine
How could we have been so blind?
To not see what was just in front of us?
Chorus:
Because everything I wanted to hear
You whispered in my ear
You make me smile on my darkest days
And you just simply take my breath away
Verse 3:
I called you up at 3am
And you told me you loved me again and again
And I knew everything was gonna be okay
As long as you were in my heart to stay
Pre-Chorus:
The feel of your hands in mine
How could we have been so blind?
To not see what was just in front of us?
Chorus:
Because everything I wanted to hear
You whispered in my ear
You make me smile on my darkest days
And you just simply take my breath away
Bridge:
Like the moon in the night sky
Your blue eyes shined so bright
You pulled me in and kissed my lips
And I melted in your fingertips
Chorus:
Because everything I wanted to hear
You whispered in my ear
You make me smile on my darkest days
And you just simply take my breath away
Outro:
You just simply take my breath away
Oh, simply take my breath away
You just take my breath away
