    Default False Belonging

    Can we turn our lives around?

    Erase the past without a sound?

    Scream out loud. What’s going wrong?

    This is not where I belong!

    Vs. 1:

    We, we all make mistakes,

    We’ve fallen from grace.

    We’re falling, behind

    Our eyes shut tight, there’s no room to see the light.

    As we cast our shadows on the ground.

    Ch. 1:

    Tell me what is down the road,

    I find I’m scared of the unknown.

    When all the lights have faded,

    Tell me why you’re still jaded.

    Separate yourself again,

    Loneliness is the new trend.

    Like shattered mirrors upon the wall,

    There’s no way to save us all.

    Vs. 2:

    Illusions or memories? I can’t tell the difference anymore.

    What happened? So breakable is what we have become.

    Throw all your regrets away, come back to me, say you’ll stay this time around.

    Bridge:

    As thoughts of you are haunting me, it seems

    So long since I have seen that fire, desire in your eyes.

    This is not where I belong!

    Make your mark, don’t be scared.

    Leave behind the tears you’ve shed.

    Don’t look back, you’re such a mess.

    It’s become a metamorphosis.

    Hi Kerri,

    You caught my attention when you left a like on a song I've posted.. so thanks.
    I'd like to know what the first verse is. Maybe an introduction? I'm glad to see that you don't have a consistent rhyme scene in your verses. That makes your chorus stand out easily. I believe "False Belonging" is a very good song, although somewhat abstract and it felt like there's not one idea behind this.

    Yes! It is an intro
    It's a very...strange song. I have it all planned out in my head, but it just feels so awkward on paper! This was my first real experiment with something other than your typical love/breakup songs. Perhaps it's still a work in progress, if I ever get back to it

    I feel you. Words are sometimes hard to manipulate..

    That's no joke, it can be so frustrating when it's on the tip of your tongue but you can't quite remember, so you put down something similar that isn't nearly as effective!

    This is some good writing. I like it bunches. I do however have one question

    "Like shattered mirrors upon the wall,
    There’s no way to save us all."

    I may be missing something and if so.."duh" but I don't quite get the analogy in this line.

    Having noted that, I think this is good penmanship.

    Thank you!
    I guess I was kind of thinking when a mirror shatters it's nothing but pieces of what is used to be and it's impossible to be put back together. You can't "save" all the pieces.
