    This is a song I've been working on with the rhythm guitarist of my band, we decided to put it up for multiple reasons, the one you get to know is that we wanted feedback on, hope you like it.
    So yeah, would really like some feedback on it please, recommendations on parts that could be changed, things like that, it would be really helpful.
    Btw I wasn't trying to rhyme
    Everything up to the screams i was thinking should be calm or at least not very heavy, in the rock area at the most.
    In the extensions just before the first screams i wanted silence i also wanted quiet instruments to come and build up during the screams and then a breakdown to come after the screams, this breakdown would most likely lead to a mini solo or a break of lyrics, but after the breakdown the music would become heavier and faster. That's really the best i can described what i was imagining in my head.
    So here it is.

    I stood there just waiting
    Tried to talk
    You just ignored
    I couldn’t stop
    You pulled me in
    Made me your everything

    I fell for you
    But you found him
    Pushed me down
    I couldn’t get back up
    I climbed, I climbed
    But there was never light

    My heart was torn
    I gave you my all
    I treated you as best I could
    But you just threw up
    And now------(screams) you’re ****ing screwed(/screams)

    (screams)Ima come find you
    I’ll rip you apart
    I’ll drag you down with me
    ***** don’t **** with me
    You will regret this
    You will regret this(/screams)

    I fell for you
    But then you found him
    Pushed me into that dark pit
    I couldn’t get out
    (screams)I climbed, I climbed(/screams)
    But there was never light

    (screams)He kicked you
    You cried
    Bet you’re ****ing happy now
    You chose wrong----
    But now I’m gone
    Find someone else to cry on(/screams)

    (screams)Don’t act like you don’t care
    I know you
    I loved you
    You can’t hide **** from me
    You screwed up
    Find someone else that cares(/screams)

    No chorus,no hook,no bridge........ballsy!It's hard to judge "bare bone lyrics"that don't rhyme.(only speakly for me)but there's something about these I like,or I wouldn't bother to respond.That being said,good story telling,but is it slow,fast,a shuffle,a waltz,if you gave me more to go on,I could give you a better critique.If you let the reader in on more than just the lyrics,the people might give you more feedback.

    If you're writing this during a "free period" then they're better than I thought.Being able to put together song lyrics in school should be applauded.I wish I was doing it while I was still in school.Seriously,super good use of your time!!

    This stanza is pretty stale, in my opinion. But has a pretty rhytmn to it.

    I fell for you
    But you found him
    Pushed me down
    I couldn’t get back up
    I climbed, I climbed
    But there was never light

    This is the best stanza I think

    My heart was torn
    I gave you my all
    I treated you as best I could
    But you just threw up
    And now------(screams) you’re ****ing screwed(/screams)

    Cliche....cliche, although it's cool to imagine it being screamed.

    (screams)Ima come find you
    I’ll rip you apart
    I’ll drag you down with me
    ***** don’t **** with me
    You will regret this
    You will regret this(/screams)

    \m/ lol. I like how you repeat those two last lines, the rest.... not so much.

    I fell for you
    But then you found him
    Pushed me into that dark pit
    I couldn’t get out
    (screams)I climbed, I climbed(/screams)
    But there was never light

    (screams)He kicked you
    You cried
    Bet you’re ****ing happy now
    You chose wrong----
    But now I’m gone
    Find someone else to cry on(/screams)

    Yes yes, I will.

    (screams)Don’t act like you don’t care
    I know you
    I loved you
    You can’t hide **** from me
    You screwed up
    Find someone else that cares(/screams)
    Overall, I think these lyrics works. And can be put into a song, which you probably already have. It's a typical cliche punk/screamo song, which I don't necessarily despise. If done correctly, a punk band can be good on many levels(If that's what you are? lol) Anyways, as a title suggestions for this perhaps..."Spasm Of Hormones"?...just kiddin ^^

    You know how to write, so keep it on going. Try to experiment and start analysing other people's work, for the sake of inspiration!
