A song I'm actually proud of

This one is very very personal on my level... it's called "seeing blind" It took awhile to write it, definetely thought out on my part...I just hope that comes through...
V1
The deal...
The deal is set in stone
I envy the blind
for they can't see it coming
and I can see it all
Who will catch me when I crumble?
The ground is getting soft
my hearts with you all
I'll stand where I fall
I'm going home

Pre-Chorus
I need a blind man
to teach me how to see
and I need a savior
to set my poor soul free

Chorus
So where is the doorman?
and why won't he let me in?
My fear sinks in slowly
as I sit in wait
for my hell to begin

V2
Our lives passed us by
on the wings of a sparrow
I'm stuck in a world
condemned by their greed
and their sorrow

*Pre chorus/chorus again*

Bridge
Now the night is upon us
it's darkness's last call
all the light is below me
I can't see at all
and the fire is above me
it's burning endlessness
all my years are before me
I have a past I can't forget

Outro
So where is the doorman
and why won't he let me in?
All my fear sinks in slowly
as I sit and wait for hell to begin...

END

Great lyrics! I didn't see where to download your song though, where do I find that?

Nice one! I can do a tune, but for the life of me I can't do lyrics.


Now when I talk to God he said he'd understand, Stick by me I'll be your guiding hand. But don't ask me what I think of you. I might not give the answer you want me to.

Wow

Very impressive even without the fluid guitar playing and 11/10 for playing barre chords in public, a feat that I will only do on an electric guitar. The lyrics are great and I expect you will do well.

Keep it up you some serious talent there!

You didn't have to do that... Doesn't matter if you copyright it or not, it can't be used without your consent. It's called intellectual property, and yes, you can sue over it.
