Song Description

I wrote these lyrics in the 7th grade and recently found them. They applied to my current situations, so I decided to put it into a song. This is my first time singing alone. Here is the end result.

Lyrics

When we saw it all,
Did you see it through my eyes?

When I didn't call,
Could you see that I never lied?

Let's watch these pillars fall,
And get on with our lives

Let's blame our poor calls,
And forget that I ever tried.


They say love was written on empty walls,
And these deadbeat halls were meant to swallow me.

Meant to swallow me.


It's a terrible feeling,
And all that I'm seeing,
Turns my breath into nothing,
Changing life into something.

And if we were all mighty,
We might give up our fighting,
Have a chance to see rightly,
You know I'd find you in a heartbeat.


They say love was written on empty walls,
And these deadbeat halls were meant to swallow me.

I swear I am nailed to this empty bed,
And the things you said will always follow me.

Always follow me.


This life is no gift it's a prison sentence and I will get out of this cell,
This life is no gift it's a prison sentence and I will get out of this cell,
This life is no gift it's a prison sentence and I will get out of this cell,
This life is no gift it's a prison sentence and I am trapped here forever.


They say love was written on empty walls,
And these deadbeat halls were meant to swallow me.

I swear I am nailed to this empty bed,
And the things you said will always follow me.


Cause this life is no gift it's a prison sentence and I will get out of this cell,
This life is no gift it's a prison sentence and I will get out of this cell,
This life is no gift it's a prison sentence and I will get out of this cell,
This life is no gift it's a prison sentence and I'll get out if it kills me.
