VERSE I
Looking out the window, defenseless
At this dwindling progression
Of the mistress, the temptress
Getting you to "come get this"
I'm a mess, I'm aggressive
Just a little possessive
But, when your mind is messed with
Wouldn't you feel the pressure?
You're at peace, and in pleasure
Thinking your sinning don't matter
There's got to be some patterns
Broken, cause you can't have her
When there's war, there's a message
You know that I won't take this
There won't be no forgiveness
Just my words, from a distance
HOOK
Opposition
Wrong position
That I've caught you in tonight!
Oh my goodness
Hope you listening
Get no more of what you like!
Your commitment's
To your mistress
Think I'm yours, but on the side!
Oh my goodness
Oh so vicious
Opposition starts tonight
CHORUS
I draw the line, when you cross it
When the devil is knocking
When he's arming his target
So you aim at my heart
Opposition (from me, from me)
Opposition (from me, from me)
Shoot you down, as a warning
But you seem to ignore it
Now my arms are drawn
To the door, you're going
Opposition (from me, from me)
Opposition (from me, from me)
BRIDGE x2
You start to draw out your white flag
Let this thing be the past
You'll probably never be back
Glad I can clean up the mess
All the debris and the rest
Of what was once in the past
You had your fun, and your laughs
So now surrender your act
And make your way to back!
CHORUS
VERSE II
I'm not sorry, no one was hurt but you and me
No pardoning, you'll have to agree
That what you did to me, was all of the reason
To why I would teach him
To not mess with me
Omfg GotSkill are you as attractive as you sound cause yas slay me and my various body parts

Nice promo you did there.
But honestly, I can't write song when I'm being forced to do so. It comes naturally to me. The last time I wrote songs, I wrote five all within two hours. And now I'm stuck with nothing.
I've had similar situations. Not that extreme but sometimes I'll write 4 songs in 3 days and then I'll go a month without anything. Sometimes the pressure does help though. But in your case you might just have to wait for the right inspiration
Also I just wrote this verse over an instrumental I made but I'm struggling to think of anything else
Starry nights, far off dazzling bright lights
Shimmer on the countryside
Dull and lifeless on my eyes
I stare off at the city skies
Young and vibrant, full of life
I sit here on this heavy night
Waiting for my flight
From a friend of mine (all their is so far, critique is welcome)
Suburban Town
Intro
This Suburban Town is burning to the ground
Check your luck at the door
Verse #1
Be careful, Mr. Smith has a gun
Ask his wife Nolene, she'll tell you clean, he isn't much fun
When he hits the scotch, she changes the locks, she is out on the run
He hit her fowl, her crown is on the ground, the queen has been dethroned
He covers her mouth, sends her south, down the river she came from
Pre-Chorus
What would you do if you couldn't even think?
What if you lost your faith in everything?
He won the battle, lost the war
Now she's on the water's floor
Chorus
This Suburban Town is burning to the ground, the ruble surrounds me
The pale white face, the cold embrace, you have lost all your family
To the ground we go, with no real hope, only thing left is a hymn to deal
We slave our lives to the daily grind, just to provide to then just die
This Suburban Town is burning to the ground
Check your luck at the door
Just wrote a song literally 20ish minutes ago. It's really personally to me, only showing verse one and chorus. Might post the full if I feel up to it. I also recorded me singing it, but it's really rough sorry for the quality. .
"Broken Into Two"
[Verse one]
I never thought that you'd be,
Gone without me by your side,
By your side,
I never been the one to think,
So I go ahead and have another drink,
Got me feeling alone now.
[Chorus]
I'm falling hard for,
The pieces we had,
I don't know what to do,
It's like I'm broken into two,
We're breaking down so fast,
I need you in my life,
I got to get you alone,
It's like I'm broken into two.
I was gonna wait a little later to share this but since we're having a burst of activity right now I'll share it now. Its about wanting to move away from my parents (which will happen in 2 months anyways) who are acting kinda ultra-protective right now. I imagine it being a good intro or outro to an album since its only 1:40.
Acid Reign
Everyone's going, everyone's going insane
Can't handle the shame, so they give me all of the blame
I need to run, got to get out of this place
Cause everyone's going, everyone's going insane
I'm surrounded by demons painting their skeletons white
Blind as the night, telling me follow the light
But I'm just a pawn, just a small piece of the game
Cause everyone's going, everyone's going insane
I'll make the great escape
Live in a world where all of my sins are OK
This haze will fade away
Skies will be clear, be free of this acid reign

Good news! I was able to write something today! All I have right now is a verse and a chorus. It's about being stuck in series of struggle and feeling like giving up. I'm so happy with the song so far. Hopefully I can finish it this week.
A song I wrote recently. It's kind of an Alternative emo-rock song. The verses are mellow and almost spoke-sung and the chorus is explosive. I actually wrote it for a local band.
Die Before Death
Die Before Death
Verse 1:
Walking with the dead underneath Orion's belt
Some lost souls are not meant to be found
Three kings and silver paragon are lesson of my virtue
And my underlying fate is clear to tell
Yes I am alive in substantiality
But my marrow is a flat line
A shadow in the dark night
Like an Immortal, I'm am lost and cannot bleed
Chorus:
I'm covered in the rain and I'm numb to all the pain
Pins and needles in my skin but I'm still unphased
I'm blind to all the lies, so you can say it as many times
Make sure to turn the knife while it's inside
But there's nothing left when you die before your dead
Post-Chorus:
Lay my body down beside the river, water at my feet
Lay my mother's ring upon the chest of what was once me
Verse 2:
I'm trapped between the veil of life and death
A high that never touches down again
I took a walk down a dangerous road
And it left me with nowhere to go
So I married the dark and it became my home
Chorus:
I'm covered in the rain and I'm numb to all the pain
Pins and needles in my skin but I'm still unphased
I'm blind to all the lies, so you can say it as many times
Make sure to turn the knife while it's inside
But there's nothing left when you die before your dead
[Bridge]
Seven devils all around me
But I'm too high to even see
The light of the moon awakens me
But the dawn of the dead still drains me
Voiced:
Normal people haven't any idea
Of how beautiful darkness is.
Chorus:
I'm covered in the rain and I'm numb to all the pain
Pins and needles in my skin but I'm still unphased
I'm blind to all the lies, so you can say it as many times
Make sure to turn the knife while it's inside
But there's nothing left when you die before your dead
Outro:
Lay my body down beside the river, water at my feet
Lay my mother's ring upon the chest of what was once me
Rest in peace.

lol, I'll sign up just because I know I won't last long with all of the talent in here who will be signing up, so it shouldn't hinder my exams too much.
I'll actually post the thread in around 3 hours. I saved the OP on my computer and I won't be home until then. Hopefully I'll have time before I have to pick up my friend from the airport
