With You Tonight [b-section: screaming] I’m trying to believe I don’t want to be alone now [chorus: singing] And there’s nothing wrong With being far from right Another sad, lonely song Stuck in my head tonight And there’s something wrong When everything goes right Another sad, lonely song Will help me through the night And everything’s gone wrong When everything is right Another sad, lonely song Will save my life tonight [verse: soft singing] Everything that you said to me is buried deep inside And I can’t make it go away no matter how hard I try It’s etched on my memory and it’s not leaving soon And the memory is as bright as the light of the moon As my heart melts with all the pain you placed inside I lay back on my bed and wipe the tears that I cry I don’t understand why you said what you said to me I just want to take all this pain, take it away, set it free [b-section: screaming] I’m trying to believe I don’t wanna be alone now [verse: soft rapping] I don’t think you understand just what you mean to me You’re more than just another person or a friend to me You’re my everything, you’re what keeps me alive now And I need to tell you that but I just don’t know how Please, just listen to me close so you can understand it I don’t wanna be the one who’s caught here red-handed And I know you know I love you more than life itself And all my feelings in the past aren’t how I really felt The things you said to me, they’ve scarred me deep But know that all of your secrets I will still keep My mother has raised me to be a man of my word And though you’ve hurt me, I won’t forget what I’ve heard [b-section: screaming] I’m trying to believe I don’t want to be alone now [chorus: singing] And there’s nothing wrong With being far from right Another sad, lonely song Stuck in my head tonight And there’s something wrong When everything goes right Another sad, lonely song Will help me through the night And everything’s gone wrong When everything is right Another sad, lonely song Will save my life tonight [verse: soft singing] Everything that you said to me is buried deep inside And I can’t make it go away no matter how hard I try It’s etched on my memory and it’s not leaving soon And the memory is as bright as the light of the moon As my heart melts with all the pain you placed inside I lay back on my bed and wipe the tears that I cry I don’t understand why you said what you said to me I just want to take all this pain, take it away, set it free [b-section: screaming] I’m trying to believe I don’t want to be alone now [chorus: singing] And there’s nothing wrong With being far from right Another sad, lonely song Stuck in my head tonight And there’s something wrong When everything goes right Another sad, lonely song Will help me through the night And everything’s gone wrong When everything is right Another sad, lonely song Will save my life tonight [chorus: singing] And there’s nothing wrong With being far from right Another sad, lonely song Stuck in my head tonight And there’s something wrong When everything goes right Another sad, lonely song Will help me through the night And everything’s gone wrong When everything is right Another sad, lonely song Will save my life tonight [b-section: screaming] I’m trying to believe I don’t want to be alone now [outro: screaming] I’m trying to believe that everything is gonna be all right I don’t wanna be alone now, I wanna be with you tonight
Thanks for the comments, guys. Your comments are what makes me want to keep writing. And, yes, I have considered it as a career. I hope to be in a band one day. So, we'll see. Maybe some of the songs I write will end up being used some time.
I have a little update regarding this song. Unfortunately, I had a case of tabula rasa, and I totally ripped off the chorus of Sevendust's "Skeleton Song" without realizing it. I feel really bad about it, but I'm going to re-write this song in its entirety. I am going to post a new version of the song in a couple days. Look out for it! But, again, thanks for your guys' comments! It's much appreciated. And, for the record, tabula rasa is when you unconsciously take something from another song without realizing it, and that's what happened to me.
*Gasps* What an awesome song! I wish I could hear it performed. I can't wait to hear the updated version, but I still give this a perfect score. Keep up the good work.
