The Fall

After the fall,
You never came.
I’m still hanging on;
Nothing’s the same.
You promised to stay
With me forever…
Since she came along,
I’ve seen you never.

After the fall,
You walked away.
Now, nothing but strangers
On a midsummer’s day.
Said you were done,
Walked into the night.
Never got to say
My last goodnight.

After the fall
That caused so much pain…
Never explained.
Left out in November rain.
Together as one.
Divided we fall.
You play pretend,
Pretend to move on.

Is this what you wanted,
The nothing we became.
Was she worth it?
Worth all this pain?
This can’t be all there is.
This can’t be all there is.
Do you reminisce?
Your tender kiss.
A friendship that’s missed.
How could you dismiss?
There’s gotta be more than this.

(Josie Sayz: Quick note, before anyone thinks that this is a heartbroken cry for attention, it is not. I’m listening to Austin John Winkler songs and I wrote this in, like, five minutes. Writing is fun and things like this just come naturally to me, without even trying.) 

Writing a Love Song

Who said you can’t write a love song in a day?
Those others take forever, but it don’t feel the same.
Just ‘cause they take their time, doesn’t make it more true.
Mine came from the heart and I wrote it for you.

Nobody Like Me

You’ve got yourself a girl
Where everything’s expected – expected?
If she tells you something,
You’d best not forget it – forget it!
Because if you do,
She’ll make you regret it – regret it!
Try to dismiss
How you feel dejected – dejected.

Wanted yourself the perfect girl.
Gone and found yourself somebody like me.
Think you figured out that,
You’re never gonna find nobody like me.

You’d rather face her rath
Than end up alone – alone!
You wouldn’t trade her in
For any other girl – girl.
Your parents like her,
They think she is perfect – perfect?
You want to make them proud,
So you convince yourself she worth it – worth it!

Wanted yourself a good girl.
Gone and found yourself somebody like me.
Think you figured out that,
You’re never gonna find nobody like me.

If I was her
I’d never take you for granted – for granted!
Relationships should be equal,
At least that’s how I understand it – stand it.
Wish I could make you see
You could be happy for you – for you!
Without feeling the need
To please everyone else too – too!

Wanted yourself a good girl.
Gone and found yourself somebody like me.
Think you figured out that,
You’re never gonna find nobody like me.

Wanted yourself the perfect girl.
Gone and found yourself somebody like me.
Think you figured out now
You’re never gonna find nobody like me!
