    Default Breakin' you down - (first attemp & looking for constructive critiques) :)

    Unfortunately, I don't have any musical skills so this one has no music... I'm more about words! And I also have to say, as you'lll surely notice, English is not my mother tongue... Anyway, the words I picture in my head [and somewhat the type of music I may connect them with] sound better in English. So, here it goes...

    Did you take some time to think it through
    Who you are, what you made of me
    Hard to keep track of all said and done
    When you left choices to dry
    With the tears you just pretended to cry

    So now it's my turn
    To flip the coin and let it burn
    I alone will lead the way this time
    I alone will break you down tonight

    Tired of running astray,
    Everything around us will change
    As you and I remain the same
    Now it's too late to choose,
    To make it right, to accuse.
    Turn your back, leave it behind
    We're split in you and me and
    I'm finally set free...

    So now it's my turn
    To flip the coin and let it burn
    I alone will lead the way this time
    I alone will break you down tonight
    'Cause it's too late
    You won't change
    It's too late
    You can't make it right
    I'm breakin' you down tonight...

    A sad tale of someone who really cared and really tried...

    Quite powerful lyrics, they make me think of a recent relationship. In addition I get a real sense of a great deal of emotion behind these words, you should be very pleased with this song!
    I'm curious, what kind of music do you picture in your head? When I read your song two genres came to mind which I feel would suit it, rock and acoustic.

    FreedomSoul,

    Thank you for reading and for the comment, really appreciated! I have to agree with you on the music genres that would suit this lyrics... Although I have no musical skills ,as I already referred, I think the emotion behind words sometimes takes its own way!
    I'm thinking about posting some more works and would appreciate your critiques as well!
    Cheers
