Description And she watches TV shows
On the screen that she holds dear
She never turns the sound off
Because this silence is her worst fear

She's talking to herself again
Raindrops fall onto her head
Cold walks and damp socks
And leaving with the best of intentions

She is sorry
She is not good enough
She is weak
She has given up
You do not want her
Do not care for her
Oh, she is sorry

The rhythms are drummed out in a solitary echo
And everything she wants is every thing she's let go
She's fighting this, shaking her fists
She knows it's not too late
Oh, she prays it's not too late

Seven o'clock on a Friday night
Ooh, she turns out her light
No reason to stay awake
No reason for her heart to break

She is sorry
She is not good enough
She is weak
She has given up
You do not want her
Do not care for her
Oh, she is so sorry

She's better now, the doctor says
These words ring in her head
She combs her hair, falls into bed
She can't forget all the words you said
I won't forget all the words we said

I am sorry
I am not good enough
I am weak
I have given up
You do not want me
Do not care for me
Oh, I am SO SORRY
I wish you could find a way

I am sorry
I am not good enough
I am weak
I have given up
I wish you could find a way
I wish I could be better just for you
But I am not
I'm sorry.

I wish I could hear the melody, but the lyrics are very nice.

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it... and the photo. I thought that it was really evocative... and it was pretty much how I was feeling when I wrote this, so it did fit very well.

Thank you!! I wish I could sell it to someone who could write music for it and make it famous... but I'm too touchy about that sort of thing. It'd have to be me singing it, and taking into account my voice, I doubt it'll ever be on the radio.


Thanks again!

awww the poor kid in the photo!


She's talking to herself again
Raindrops fall onto her head
Cold walks and damp socks
And leaving with the best of intentions "im not too keen on that part,, it dont seem to rhyme as well as the rest"

another great chorus......love how your songs really do build up to what seems like a powerful chorus

I know! I saw the picture and just wanted to give her a hug. I always thought it was kind of interesting that everyone, a 2 year old or a 72 year old, sort of makes the same face when they're crying really hard; it looks like they're screaming really loud, their lips turn in... they just look so childish and afraid, like they've given up.

BAH! You've found my Weak Spot. I think, in every song that I write, there's this one part where I just can't seem to figure out what to say... and so I fudge it with something that isn't perfect. I really couldn't figure out what to put there... I want to change it... got any ideas?!

I'm psyched that you like my choruses, they're usually my favourite part, too. Especially this one... it's really personal, and it describes all that I wanted it to; exactly how I feel. *sighs* Sometimes I wish I could just write a song of choruses. STUPID VERSES!

Thank you for the commentt!

*thinks* Hmm... I dunno... will you promise to give me credit for it when you become rich and famous?! And will you promise to get me a set of tabs/show me how it ends up sounding? I've always wanted to put my music to something other than a drum beat. Note me... I think that it'd be very cool if you made this a song.

I play guitar, if I could come up with music for it, could I use it?
