If Guilt Could Hang You From a Nail...

Post by withchappedlips »

It's so cold as I leave your room.
I'm warm in sweat and wet in tears.
Leaving was the hardest thing to do
Leaving always is the hardest thing to do.
Someone's gotta do it.

She'll cry just a bit
Losing hope, losing it
I'll regret what I've done, I know it.
I'll go home for a fix
Getting high, I deal with this
My day gets calm and I lie
asleep on my bed

Now it's late, I dream about us
I can't believe I'd doubt us
I don't know what I've done
I don't know why I'd do what I've done
I guess I had to do it

She'll cry just a bit
Losing hope, losing it
I'll regret what I've done, I know it.

I know she's sad, I know she's missing
I know I'm cold, I know I'm pathetic
I know it all. I know it all. I'll live with it.
Someone's gotta live with it.

She's the paper I use to write on
I used to write on
I threw it all away
She's the pen I use to write with
I used to write with
The ink has gone away
And I know I said I needed space,

but I know I can't be comfortable in my own skin.

So when I say I'm scared to be alone, you know I mean it,

I'm just not ready to leave my room.

Thank you.

I love my last line, but it might be twisted a bit. I wrote it like "she's the pen i use to write with" meaning just a pen.. then I say "I used to write with" which means I used to write with the pen. you use pens until you lose them or die, and then just throw them away. which is what i'm saying about her. i used her until i got sick of her. same goes with the paper. it's totally made up and uninspired... so i don't like it that much.. the whole song.
And I know I said I needed space,

but I know I can't be comfortable in my own skin.

Kinda hard to know if its supposed to be fast or slow and all, but I liked the lyrics. I had some melody for it in my mind.

When I go about writing a song, I want to make it as tricky as possible in regards to what it will sound like as a composition. It's a slower song, but it has a bit of fast in it at parts.
And I know I said I needed space,

but I know I can't be comfortable in my own skin.
