Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

I wrote this song last night. No, I haven't experienced anything like this, I was just listening to 'Romeo's Dead' by Sarina Paris, and 'Moonlight Shadow' by Groove Coverage, and decided to take a grimmer look at losing the love of your life to a violent death. Reviews are appreciated!

I glance in a mirror
Can't look myself in the eyes
Is it that day already?
It's time to say my goodbyes

Why did you have to show off?
To try and prove you're a man?
And why did you have to drink so much?
I know it wasn't your plan

Now you're...

Walking in the shadows
Ever since that night
Walking in the shadows
Ever since that fight
You didn't live to regret
Trying to prove you were right
And I'm sorry to say
He never saw the light

I walk through the doorway
And look around the room
So few people here to mourn
Ever does your presence loom

As I approach you
My heart echoes within
My tears fall from my face
The freezing cold pricks my skin

Because you're...

Walking in the shadows
Ever since that night
Walking in the shadows
Ever since that fight
You didn't live to regret
Trying to prove you were right
And I'm sorry to say
He never saw the light

The sadness consumes me
I can't take it anymore
"I'm sorry..."
Don't you try to stop me
Things should be like before
"The pain is too much..."
You meant everything to me
Even through this, I am yours
"It's the only thing I can do..."
And the darkness, it steals me
Now with you, I shall soar
"I'm coming..."

Now I'm...

Walking in the shadows
Ever since that night
Walking in the shadows
Ever since that fight
You didn't live to regret
Trying to prove you were right
And I'm sorry to say
He never saw the light
