This is my second original song :D I actually made a backtrack for myself :p Also help why do i feel like all the songs I write are sad ;-; Anyways here's the lyrics: Vs. 1 I paint a smile for the world to see But inside it’s gettin’ hard to breathe Every thought’s a battlefield And nothing in me ever heals You see the light, but I see the storm I’ve been weathered, bruised, and torn You deserve a heart that’s whole Not one that’s always closing doors Ch. So darlin’ please don’t wait for me Love like this can’t set you free I’m a ghost behind these eyes A prisoner of my own disguise You want someone who's really there Not someone too hurt inside to care Don't fall for someone you can't save I'm not a love, I'm just a wave Crashing hard-- so run from me Vs. 2 I wish I knew how to let you in But I don’t know where Id even begin My silence isn’t mystery It’s just a cage that’s holdin’ me You try to reach me through the cracks But I keep slippin’ further back You shine like day, I fade like night And I don’t want to dim your light Ch. So darlin’ please don’t wait for me Love like this can’t set you free I’m a ghost behind these eyes A prisoner of my own disguise You want someone who's really there Not someone too hurt inside to care Don't fall for someone you can't save My souls a storm while yours is brave You need the calm, so run from me Bridge Maybe in another life Where I’m not fightin’ just to survive I’d give you all the parts I hide But now I’m barely holdin’ tight End ch. So darlin’, please don’t wait for me I’m not who I pretend to be There’s beauty in the way you care But I’m too lost to meet you there You want someone who’s wild and free But I’m locked up so silently You want someone who can lead Not someone who can't even bleed Cause all my blood is bled How could I reach your heart When I can't make it outta my own bed Don't fall for someone you can't save My heart is buried in a grave Ill drown your light, so run from me
All singing, the song and its lyrics are by me <3 I made the backtrack myself using tools from bandlab :) Harmonies also by me lol
