Just some Lyrics I wrote of letting go of regret.

[drummermike]

Hey all,

Yeah ... so I am a drummer and not a song writer but I wrote a few in my life just for therapy. Anyway, some here know of my breakup and I felt I was left high and dry in many ways in part because of this anxiety issue. Despite being all but paralyzed ... it's been a rough road and losing your partner of course doesn't make it easier. So maybe this will help some with regret, or reach them in another way, or maybe not at all. Hope you like.





What do I do now




standing at the edge of the stairway
you’re so determined – yet so conflicted
toe to toe our eyes gazing one last stare
bewildered by your emptiness
no longer filled with care
your lies lifted me to total belief
in the man I dreamed of being
if even so brief

what do I do now
my love - my forever friend
what do I do now
now that you’ve brought this to an end
- I don’t know
your voice echoes - without regard
- I can’t deal with it - it’s all to hard

three last words
never to forget
spinning feelings of true regret
a good man in his deepest lows
you started this whole thing
now you deliver the blows

what do I do now
my love - my forever friend
what do I do now
now that you’ve brought this to an end
- I don’t know
your voice echoes without regard
- I can’t deal with it - it’s all to hard

what do I do now
let go of regret
- I don’t know
something ... I’ll never forget

Those are some really fantastic lyrics there and I can tell it's straight from the heart as I can sense the passion in those words. I've also written a few songs myself, maybe I will post it sometime too.

I know how hurt you must be feeling as my ex gf ended our relationship back in Jan which was really surprising and it hurt so much.

Thanks for sharing and well done.

you say you wanted love but the love was never real
you say wanted held but there was nothing left to feel
I loved you for your beauty but my self-esteem was low
I loved you for you body but there was nowhere else to go

I knew I should have left before the night begun
before the music started before the wine began to run
but lust was my master and I had forgotten how to pray
your kisses soft and warm took my breath away

we knew before we started we'd be strangers when we parted
I was handsome I was strong I knew the words to every song
I would play your mind and body like a handmade violin
you would hold me like a crucifix and ask me to forgive your sin

Hey feel free to add this to your poem, just wrote it

This poem writng is a breeze but I have to admit I dont need to feel the words

[drummermike]

Pretty good PH for just jotting them down ;)

One of my favourite songs has some of the most beautiful lyrics in which I'd like to share it but it's not mine so I don't know if it would count in here?

[drummermike]

Thanks for some of the nice words ...... lol again I am no lyricists ... the basis of the poem is that when she did leave, I could barely get to the store to get groceries to eat ....... so ... "what do I do now", was my only thought ...

I am eating by the way ;)

Different Seasons, by Johnny Hates Jazz

"There is a face deep in your mind
One that your heart won't leave behind
Memories are cold-empty of laughs
And all that remains are photographs

When she's gone there are no reasons
Nature's cruel - it's just different seasons
Going on and on

There is a voice deep in your soul
Telling your not to lose control
And day after day you hold back the tears
'cos pain is the greatest of your fears

When she's gone there are no reasons
Nature's cruel - it's just different seasons
Going on and on

Just different seasons,
There are no reasons,
Going on and on..oh oh oh no no...."

VERY nice Deepest Blue ............

OK so I have played out many years and mostly alternative rock ... my favorite band and singer is AMY LEE for Evanescence ..... NOT kidding I am a major fan of her, she is an amazing musician, and is beautiful inside and out. No comparison in my little world.

This is a song that is one of my favs, including Amy ... played it out many times .....

"Broken" Seether and Amy Lee

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph, I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

[x2]
'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

Under your spell again.
I can't say no to you.
Crave my heart and it's bleeding in your hand.
I can't say no to you.

Shouldn't let you torture me so sweetly.
Now I can't let go of this dream.
I can't breathe but I feel...

Good enough,
I feel good enough for you.

Drink up sweet decadence.
I can't say no to you,
And I've completely lost myself, and I don't mind.
I can't say no to you.

Shouldn't let you conquer me completely.
Now I can't let go of this dream.
Can't believe that I feel...

Good enough,
I feel good enough.
It's been such a long time coming, but I feel good.

And I'm still waiting for the rain to fall.
Pour real life down on me.
'Cause I can't hold on to anything this good enough.
Am I good enough for you to love me too?

So take care what you ask of me,
'cause I can't say no.
