I wrote this song in my head this morning whilst in the shower, but I couldn't remember my clever words for the pre-chorus
The backing for this is actually nearly done. It's in G major and makes full use of the unexpected D sharp for C minor chords.

[Verse]
Who's gonna be there after that last phone call?
When my troubled mind needs a rest,
Will you stay after the day,
You open my heart and there's nothing left
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't keep this up any longer,
So I have to ask
[Chorus]
Would you still love me if I stopped writing songs?
Would you still hold my hand if I forgot to sing along?
I don't wanna be the one who always has to put on a show,
But I just can't bring myself to let go,
So I guess you'll never know,
The real me
[Verse]
Remember the days before we were friends?
When I just acted like myself,
I didn't have to try to fit in,
Or please anybody else
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't keep this up any longer,
So I have to ask
[Chorus]
Would you still love me if I stopped writing songs?
Would you still hold my hand if I forgot to sing along?
I don't wanna be the one who always has to put on a show,
But I just can't bring myself to let go,
So I guess you'll never know,
The real me
[Bridge]
I don't want no money,
When I've got my friends,
But now this house is empty,
This nightmare never ends
[Chorus]
Would you still love me if I stopped writing songs?
Would you still hold my hand if I forgot to sing along?
I don't wanna be the one who always has to put on a show,
But I just can't bring myself to let go,
So I guess you'll never know,
The real me

This has depth and sadness to it. Beautiful lyrics. Flow's effortless. Once again, a masterpiece by Mr RobberBaron
"If you were me, then I'd be you, and if I were you, I'd hide somewhere faraway..." -
Aw thanks, that's so nice!
-
Only the truth passes these lips... fingers... keyboard... you know what I mean!
I love this, truly.
"If you were me, then I'd be you, and if I were you, I'd hide somewhere faraway..." -
I really wish I could sing it, because if someone else does it really looses meaning. Still, I might post up the instrumental some time
Ooh, that reminds me, did I upload Sometimes?
-
That's a shame... just take it down into your range, then
And... I don't think so but I'll double check!!"If you were me, then I'd be you, and if I were you, I'd hide somewhere faraway..." -
I made a fail recording of this today. It has no one singing, and nothing mimicking the vocals either, and also the sheet music fell on the piano in the middle of it, and I kept playing it wrong, but apart from that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fm2cCsKQbMc XD
