Goodbye

It was dark
On that night we said goodbye
It was hard
It was tough
Never easy
Never enough

I pushed you away
And I meant to
I needed to
I pushed you to something you didn't want to do

I couldn't let my heart open
I've always been scared to show it
It's not perfect in shape or size
(But) it's mine

I pushed you away
I told you to go
I told you "no"
I pushed you to stop all the nonsense
This talk of "us"

Burning Bridges

It's been a long time
A long time since I've posted
And a long time since I've written
Now I'm trying to do both
Here's my sad attempt at writing again..

Burning Bridges

I. I take it all back, it was too late at night

The things I said burn in daylight

I changed my mind, I'm in over my head

(need a line)

II. I'm done talking, I'm walking away

Leaving those words where they dropped and now lay

Don't pick em up, I don't mean what I say

I've crossed over, it's comin down, look away.

CH: I'm burning bridges baby

We're on opposite sides

You'll never reach me baby

No matter how hard you try

Cus I'm lookin back

Feelin bad for those lies

But I'm burning bridges

We're on opposite sides

I have a third verse.. but it needs some serious revision.

There it is.. unfortunately the tune that popped in my head when I was writing this song resembles country.. which is definitely not what I was going for. So I'm revising the melody as well.. Any suggestions? opinions? lines? verses? Feel free :)
