Link, I'll crit back
----------------------
Weighed down and warm
In baggy clothes
She rests her tangled head
Against the wall
Her favorite movie
Is on again
Her room is hollowed out
And still
She dreams of daytime grays
And blues
And kisses carelessly
The cold glass
Memories and new ideas
Sit on her shoulder
And whisper
About the hurricane
Sock feet and metal bars
She stands
The melting snow
And water on her lips
Carry smells of spring
Like a sodden wooden fence
But the streetlight glowing
In the early dusk
Spells summer

Is this a poem or a song? if it's a song then it has very unusual structure. Anyway, i found this hard to crit verse by verse so heres an overall. As poetry, i liked it. nothing groundbreaking but nice vivid imagery, good use of vocabulary and a lovely mood of confusion, reflection and contemplation brought on by these techniques. I liked the (possible) double meaning in "tangled Head" near to the start. I also liked the image of ideas sitting on your shoulder and whispering. This is also very effective personification. overall some nice work 8.5 out of ten
if you get a chance could you crit thishttp://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=311300
Thanks

Thanks for the crit
I realize most of my lyrics are like poetry, but I promise you they're lyrics .... or poetry to music. Same difference, right? ;)
I'll crit your song now.
