    These are lyrics that I wrote for a folk song. Tell me what you think, and be completely honest. Offer suggestions if you'd like to. Or whatever.

    *Rhythm changes for the chorus.
    --------

    So many words I have forgotten
    I wish I had cared to say
    And all the targets I was shooting
    I was aiming the wrong way

    Now this minimal achievement
    Is just a fraction of the truth
    It's the monumental faulure
    That's been getting through to you

    *Let the long days pass
    Because the years will go twice as fast
    And if you trip down the road
    You know I never did take this back

    Well all that pride that I had taken
    In my words, they were mistaken
    I have lied so many times
    You'd think that I'd be sick of faking

    Being clean I thought was helping
    But I let it go to waste
    And I won't deny the fact that I
    Liked throwing it away

    *When our ashtray is full
    It will be understandable
    I think you always have known
    There are much harder strings to pull
    So we're on the road
    I guess that's how we'll always be
    But I don't think you know
    You've been the much better half of me

    --------

    Thanks for reading. :)
