Confessions

That's right, I finally built the courage to put lyrics I wrote on the internet. Keep in mind that simply reading the lyrics without any knowledge as to the tempo or melody tends to give the wrong idea about how the song is supposed to be heard. I'm pretty curious to see how people react to it without having heard the tune. It was one of those songwriting cases in which the words came to me about some obscure situation, one that I have yet to realize what it is about and how it might relate to me. The words are in that odd format 'cause I pressed "enter" according to the chord change.

When you
think about me
do you
Think you want to leave
from Missouri to New York
Where I hope that we'll feel free

Do you
think about me
When you
Want to feel free
I can't blame you if you dont
But if not me then please you'll see, dont forget me

I know
There hasnt been much said
And I worry
about what lies ahead
And I admit it always
looked so right in my head

Sometimes
I feel my head explode
And it falls
And gets left on the road
And I can feel my life erode
To the bone

Dont forget
The good times we never had
The days are longer
And so are the nights but I'm still sad

They say
The end is a beginning
But I think
It's all the same wheel spinning

I guess the song I wrote is similar to this in the fact that it is a simple finger-picking acoustic- guitar-con-harmonica arrangement.
