You were everything to me
The only thing I cared about
It Just wansnt enough to save us
I feel...


All Alone
I dont need you
Cant Live without
I hate you
I pushed you down
You changed
Its too late
Doesnt matter anymore


Before we met I was Dead
A nothing walking cold
I was in an eternal silence
Then you opened my eyes to a world i never knew
I thought what we had was real
Now Im..


All Alone
I dont need you
Cant live without
I hate you
I pushed you down
You changed
Its too late
Doesnt matter anymore


What happened to us?
What changed you?
How was i supposed to feel
that day you left me for that fuc*ing loser
I hated myself
Why do i still love you?
I was...


All Alone
I dont need you
Cant live without
I hate you
I pushed you down
You changed
Its too late now
Doesnt matter anymore


Then you came back to me
I remember the day so well
Your face looked so perfect in the rain
why did you do this to me?
I cant

No..


Get out of here
I dont want to see you
What do you want?
I gave you everything
It just wansnt enough
Why do i still love you?

Its pretty good, flows well, but i was wondering... What kind of music is this for? The chorus seems like a rap while the verse is rockish i think.

its meant to be hard rock/ maybe even alittle emo..

Ok, i can kinda see where that would fit. With the choppier chorus as a heavier "hard-rock" type part with the verses as emo-ish. Actually that would be neat.

Last line would build and then break into chorus. Fine introduction to the sung. Maybe consider making it the same length line-wise as the verses but could depend on structure of song when played.

Not a bad chorus, nothing overly interesting, could really go either way. The quality of this song really would depend on how it was preformed.

Not bad, good lead into chorus again. Maybe say "i lived in eternal silence" instead of i was in eternal silence...

Lots of rhetorical questions in this verse. Again could go either way depending on how it's preformed. Howeved i pretty much never condone the use of swearing in songs. Not because i dont approve of swearing, on the contrarity i can be quite fould mouthed, but it's kinda cliche'd nowadays.

Then you came back to me
I remember the day so well
Your face looked so perfect in the rain
why did you do this to me?

No..

I can kinda see the suspence in this section. this is a good way to end the song. These two verses are the best two in the song. Good expression, etc.

Overall i would give a 7.5/10. Not bad for the first copy of the song. With revisions and maybe some added imagery this could be a good song. Also the way it is preformed would really show whether it would be good or not.
