    Basically, this is the first song I've written in a long time but right now I've got a rhythm guitar part sorted for it and I may try and expand that into a full on track. It's very influenced by Say Anything (within the lyrics and the music) but see what you think.

    Hopefully this will be used in the future for a project that I may or may not be working on :lol:

    Enjoy!

    "The Only Thing Harder Than Being Together Is Being Alone"

    It's the 4th of never again,
    And dream dates are removed like you said,
    With welcome cards relaying excuses,
    I destroyed everything we had,
    And I'm writing songs again,
    For the first time since we met,
    So wrapped up in everything,
    I forgot to write about your smile.

    And now that you're gone,
    I forget exactly how you looked,
    Burned the photographs I found of you,
    And discarded the ones I'd took.

    As you've driven off into the sunset,
    The clouds and planes bow out farewells,
    And I am dying for you to come back to me.
    But it's not happening.
    You came and you left in a flash,
    And the blinding photograph that followed,
    Illuminated the past.
    And as these memories were made,
    They left as quickly as they came.

    And now that you're gone,
    I forget exactly how you looked,
    Burned the photographs I found of you,
    And discarded the ones I'd took,
    And now I'm all alone,
    I bury myself in TV shows,
    The lives of others make me worry,
    A little less about my own.

    I don't think that I could ever change the way,
    You looked at me,
    I don't think that I could ever change the way,
    That you left me,
    I don't think that I could ever change the way,
    You thought of me,
    But if I ever got just one more chance,
    I'd turn down your pleas with no respect,
    I wouldn't let you take it all away.

    And now that you're gone,
    I forget exactly how you looked,
    Burned the photographs I found of you,
    And discarded the ones I'd took,
    And now I'm all alone,
    I bury myself in TV shows,
    The lives of others make me worry,
    A little less about my own.
