    Default Pins and Needles

    Verse one:
    We're taking laps around this track that we call life,
    not letting any moments pass us by.
    Holding onto the feet that we have walked on our whole life,
    not letting go of all the pain and all the strife.
    And we wonder why.

    Chorus:
    If someone could give us the answers would that change a thing?
    If people told you who to be would you stay the same?
    We've been walking on pins and needles and it's such a shame.
    We have to open our eyes and realize we can't do anything.

    Verse two:
    We're surviving on each-others dependency,
    when all we really want is attention and honesty.
    Holding onto the people that hurt us the most,
    and our baggage follows us around like a ghost.
    And we wonder why.

    Chorus:
    If someone could give us the answers would that change a thing?
    If people told you who to be would you stay the same?
    We've been walking on pins and needles and it's such a shame.
    We have to open our eyes and realize we can't do anything.

    Ooooo baby I really like this see I told you. I love the chorus and just make the third verse an ending. :-)
    There is not enough space or time to truly let the song unwind

    I'm thinking in the third verse have a bridge instead say something about the track of life try and connect the bridge to the idea of the track of life. then have an ending chorus but change the last line to can instead of cant in order to show the growth through the song. So it starts kind of negative and it ends positive so u want the bridge to be about the change in your mind.

    I wouldn't change a thing nor add another verse, Traingirl, it's just fine, baby<3
    However, feel free to do so, if you feel the urge.
    To build another verse towards a positive chorus ending ain't a bad idea, as John suggests. You could try that!
    Eagerly waiting, you're clever enough to work it out yourself!
