"Music is life"


I say I want this
You say I want that 
And with every little thing
You say I overreact
I try to play it cool 
You say my tempers hot
You turn everything I say into something it's not

And I
There's been so much that I've had to endure
And I
I don't want to play these games anymore
And you
You say you get me
Yean sure
Cuz sometimes I wonder
What you've felt before

Have you ever felt lost 
With no hope of being found
Have you ever tried to fly
But you couldn't leave the ground
Have you ever lost hope
That things will turn out fine
Have you ever spaced out
Cuz you're caught up in your mind
Yeah

Have you ever felt
Like the bar was set too high
Have you ever cried tears
That noone was there to dry
And have you ever felt
Just so misunderstood 
Spending every day
Just wishing for what could

Yeah
Just wishing for what could
Oh

So take these words of wisdom
Take my advice
That every time you're near me
It just doesn't feel right
I'm an individual
I have a life too
I wish you could just see things from my point of view

And I'm
So sick and tired of dealing with it
And I 
I've had enough of this whole depressed fix
And you
You try to help me out
But just miss
And yeah it makes me wonder
Have you felt like this
Yeah

Have you ever felt lost 
With no hope of being found
Have you ever tried to fly
But you couldn't leave the ground
Have you ever lost hope
That things will turn out fine
Have you ever spaced out
Cuz you're caught up in your mind
Yeah

Have you ever felt
Like the bar was set too high
Have you ever cried tears
That noone was there to dry
And have you ever felt
Just so misunderstood 
Spending every day
Just wishing for what could

Yeah
Just wishing for what could
Oh   

And I just wanna get away
Face real life another day
But you 
You're holding me back
Yeah
So now the pain is setting in
Seems I can never win 
Cuz what I feel
Yeah it's real
You just don't get it

Oh 

Have you ever felt lost

Ever tried to fly

Yeah yeah yeah

Have you ever felt lost 
With no hope of being found
Have you ever tried to fly
But you couldn't leave the ground
Have you ever lost hope
That things will turn out fine
Have you ever spaced out
Cuz you're caught up in your mind
Yeah

Have you ever felt
Like the bar was set too high
Have you ever cried tears
That noone was there to dry
And have you ever felt
Just so misunderstood 
Spending every day
Just wishing for what could

Yeah
Just wishing for what could
Oh 
Just hoping for some good
Yeah
Just so misunderstood

This was actually kind of a hate song when I originally wrote it, and I guess it still kind of is. If you've ever felt like it's you against the world, then this one's for you.

Wow, that was something that I would call amazing. It looks like you have a great talent and if song writing is a dream of yours you'll have no problem reaching it. I'm glad I saw this, it's amazing.
