I think "the slightest nudge" or "the slightest of nudges" would flow better than "even just a nudge".
And maybe change "still lingers here" to "continues to adhere". But I'm just being picky....

Doug: Since all my lyrics are stored in text files, all I have to do is copy and paste them.
Kerri: Hmm, so I can check "be someone's favorite lyricist" off my bucket list.
BackInBlack: That's not...

"And I'm tired of clipping my wings
Cause I want to fly, you see
It's always been man's oldest dream"
I sense that you'd make a good writing partner.

The two best things about this song:
1) It flows pretty well.
2) The story pulls you in.

I figured I'd post something darker this time.
"Tear me apart
Pierce straight to my heart
I'm fine with being
Just another casualty
But make it brief
I want the most relief
I'll have it...

Awesome. Also, I just posted the updated version.

Fair enough! That's why I don't understand why Chad Kroeger gets so much hate. You may not like his voice, but he's responsible for writing a lot of hit songs. Tim McGraw's "Southern Voice" being a...

Well, I see myself as more of a songwriter than a performer, so I'd be happy just to sell one of my songs. As it is, I have a whole library to fall back on, but I'm always going back and updating my...

I tend to agree. It's a shame that we settle for just getting by.

Pretty standard song with my own twist.
Normality is overrated, he said
It's easier to walk around jaded
Than pick himself up again
Finalize the withdrawal he tried
When every other option...

Never Too Late was the first song I learned, actually. Most of my songs were written for that type of music. Cold has a few songs in particular that I feel stand well above the rest. Feel It In Your...

I especially like Aaron Lewis' cover of What Hurts The Most. Do you listen to the band Cold? Learning to play the guitar is easy if you start out with Three Days Grace, Green Day, etc. Most of their...

Yeah, I'm glad I could help. If you come up with a good riff to go along with it, I'd like to hear it.

I'm getting an Aaron Lewis (Staind) vibe. If you haven't already come up with a melody, I'd suggest doing so because this song could go places.

There isn't much to say about this one.

Melodies are what I'm worst at, unfortunately.

Ironically, I have a song with the same title. I think they both express the need of living for today upside worrying about the past or being anxious about the future, but you took a slightly...

Hmm, I think you're right. Perhaps the chorus would be better as this:

May you forever run until you hold...

Unfortunately, I don't really have a melody or any chords prepared for this song. I wrote the chorus while listening to Gavin Rossdale a while back and just went with it. Feel free to...

I'm assuming you're fine with the lyrics being a little heavy given the topic.
Values as worthless as the thoughts put into them
