Last night was a close call,
I'm surprised that I woke up at all,
I almost had to pinch myself,
But it felt like I already had,
A thousand demons in my head,
Pinching at the thought of you.

I saw your smile,
As I fell from my perch,
As I lost conscioussness,
With the click of your fingers,
You say 'jump',
And I say 'how high?'
Turn away,
And you wont see me again.

Today was a nightmare,
I'm surprised that I woke up at all,
I almost had to kill myself,
Just to feel alive again,
A thousand demons in my head,
Scream your name from here to hell.

I saw your smile,
As I fell from my perch,
As I lost conscioussness,
With the click of your fingers,
You say 'jump',
And I say 'how high?'
Turn away,
And you wont see me again.

I was in hell,
Long before last night,
Maybe I am dead?
Maybe I died long ago?
Maybe I'm just singing myself to sleep?
But this time I wont wake up,

I saw your smile,
As I fell from my perch,
As I lost conscioussness,
With the click of your fingers,
You say 'jump',
And I say 'how high?'
Turn away,
And you wont see me again.
Goodbye...

I can't get this song out of my head.

It's one of the first real songs I've written completely by myself (vocal and guitar parts)... and it actually sounds quite decent (in my opinion).

I'll try and upload it tomorrow if I get to practice with my guitarist.

Man, Ron said you have talent when he replied to the last one I read, that you wrote, and I have to tell you, you have a lot of it. I hope you and your music go far. I'd enjoy seeing it all play out. Cheers again!
