Hi y'all. This is my very first post. I just joined the forum. I decided to post an older song of mine, and a new one. Any comments, suggestions, thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks all.

OLDER:

"They Will Not Quit"

[Verse 1]:
Like a gasp, of cold winter air,
Like a candle, burnin' up my hair,
I am, quite aware,
Whenever you are near

I try, not to care
I try, but I don't dare,
To act like you're not there;
But whenever you're around,
I just wanna faint to the ground

[Chorus]:
When I see you,
Or hear someone talkin' bout' you,
All the memories I'm tryin' to hide,
They come rushin' back to my side

I swear, I try to forget,
But those memories just won't quit
They keep twisting my mind,
Making me, wanna run and hide

I pray that I'll forget,
I just want to forget,
But they,
They will not quit

[Verse 2]:
Like a sharp chest pain,
Like the rumblin' of a train,
Suddenly, I'm aware,
And then, I get scared,
Whenever you are near

I don't wanna be here anymore,
I just, want to run through that door;
Run fast, like there's no tomorrow,
Run fast, like there isn't sorrow

[Chorus]:
When I see you,
Or hear someone talkin' bout' you,
All the memories I'm tryin' to hide,
They come rushin' back to my side

I swear, I try to forget,
But those memories just won't quit
They keep twisting my mind,
Making me, wanna run and hide

I pray that I'll forget,
I just want to forget,
But they,
They will not quit

[Verse 3]:
I find myself, lashing out,
I find myself, sobbing in doubt
Why can't I just shut my mouth?
Why can't I...

Like a gasp, of cold winter air,
Like a candle, burnin' up my hair,
Like a sharp - chest pain,
Like the rumblin' of a train

I can't forget,
Because it won't quit!

[Chorus]:
When I see you,
Or hear someone talkin' bout' you,
All the memories I'm tryin' to hide,
They come rushin' back to my side

I swear, I try to forget,
But those memories just won't quit
They keep twisting my mind,
Making me, wanna run and hide

I pray that I'll forget,
I cannot forget-

When I see you,
Or hear someone talkin' bout' you,
All the memories I'm tryin' to hide,
They come rushin' back to my side

I swear, I try to forget,
But those memories just won't quit
They keep twisting my mind,
Making me, wanna run and hide

I pray that I'll forget,
I just want to forget,
Please tell me I'll forget!
But they,
They never will,
They won't,
They will not quit

[RV1]:
Like a gasp, of cold winter air,
Like a candle, burnin' up my hair


NEW:

"Torture (As Long As I'm With You)"

[Verse 1]:
I was not strong at all
Just one push and down I fall
My tears flow like steady rain
I've learned to know what I'll retain

I got a little bit braver
I got a little more sure
Now I know what I won't endure
But there's one wonderful anguish I live for

[Chorus]:
If being with you is torture, then...
Kiss me til I can't breath
Hold me til I can't move
Love me til my heart bursts
I want you to be all my firsts
Hold my hand til it's numb
Talk to me til I'm struck dumb
I can face anything
As long as I'm with you

[Verse 2]:
I couldn't make up my mind
My dreams would get broken in the grind
But now I see the choices I've made
And how my hope has never strayed

I'd hoped I'd find you
And my heart would lovingly bind you
This is so incredibly perfect
There is not one bad affect
Except the wonderful anguish I live for

[Chorus]:
If being with you is torture, then...
Kiss me til I can't breath
Hold me til I can't move
Love me til my heart bursts
I want you to be all my firsts
Hold my hand til it's numb
Talk to me til I'm struck dumb
I can face anything
As long as I'm with you

As long as I'm
(As long as I'm)
I'm with you

[Verse 3]:
Say the words
They'll always be heard
No offense to them, but you're my preferred
Take my hand
I'll always understand
Everything you do, just makes my love expand

You're not torture, you're not pain
You're the happiness, and the remain
Such sweet anguish

[Chorus]:
If being with you is torture, then...
Kiss me til I can't breath
Hold me til I can't move
Love me til my heart bursts
I want you to be all my firsts
Hold my hand til it's numb
Talk to me til I'm struck dumb
I can face anything
As long as I'm with you

Kiss me til I can't breath
Hold me til I can't move
Love me til my heart bursts
I want you to be all my firsts
Hold my hand til it's numb
Talk to me til I'm struck dumb
I can face anything
As long as I'm with you

I can face anything
Anytime, anywhere
As long as I'm with you
If being with you is torture...

(Kiss me til I can't breath)
(Hold me til I can't move)
(Love me til my heart bursts)
{repeat x2}
