Summer in My Own Shadow(acoustic song, comments welcome)

This is an extremely personal song





I've come to not expect an answer
Lying lifeless, open, dying on the bed
Were just for a few words
I could stop pacing around this empty apartment

I never meant all that I said
What you heard was just fear spewing from my head

Oh, I dissolve in times like these
Why cover the walls when you're practically asking me to leave

I finally got my answer
Stopped my pacing and sat down at the desk
Trying to think of clever ways
To spill my guts into ****ing napkins

When this is over
Juturna, pour life into me
He died in the courthouse
I'm hoping you believe he wasn't me
I know you do
And I know that you meant what you said
In my arms on the side of the bed

Oh, I dissolve



(this was literally written on napkins)

I actually love this line!
"Trying to think of clever ways
To spill my guts into ****ing napkins"
It just sums up all that lyric writing is.

Check out the link above. Your song reminds me so much of mine. There is so much said with the words you used. The personal ones are always the best and should always be treated with respect, not only with the process of writing them but also in reading them.
