I'm happy I have a couple of new original songs to try out at my monthly open mic tomorrow. I'll do a video of the other song once I get through a few days without changing the lyrics. :D



Lyrics:

My words are dropping like the petals from a faded bloom
Till they're carpeting the room and I've nothing to say
The silence fills the empty places where she stood
And nothing's any good, now she's gone away

She said I wasn't on her side, discounted everything I tried
Once it comes down to wounded pride, it's easier to go than stay
It's not like I don't know how to be alone
But for just a moment there, I thought I was home

Shaking up the past like a snow globe, every argument and slight
Wondering what I might have done differently
We disagreed on blame for all things that occurred
What I think was her she thinks was me

The space between expands for lack of stretching out a hand
Little differences made grand, too big to see
And I'm sitting here wondering how I find myself alone
When for just a moment there, I thought I was home

Gather up the stormclouds today
Gather up the stormclouds today
Gather up the stormclouds today
