-This is a song for my band, hence the chorus.  It is a piano piece, with some light guitar thrown in.

Thrown Away At The Door Without Repentance


Nothing speaks volumes like a cold alibi
I told you so many times never to cry
Fate is something we discover at birth
So you can’t help change the story
When your mind never had any worth

Look into my eyes and see what I think
Don’t you realize this is the way it will be
Change was never especially fond of man
For you to drink the wine is what I expect
Did you ever really want my respect?

Chorus:  And nothing ever checked out right in this world
  Your search to be a star left you in a whirl
  Hurting what you least expected
  Thrown away at the door without repentance

Binging on life at the break of dawn
Thought you were in charge but you’re only a pawn
Intimate feelings you never liked to share
Something must have been eating away inside
But to know what it was you never really cared

I found this very thought-provoking LenMcC, I read it a few times. I'd love to hear the music that accompanies this piece. Well done!

Best wishes,

I LOVED this! this was very refreshing
and different to me. I like your style.
I too would love to hear the music that
goes along with this. I am sure it is
just as beautiful. Take care.

Because once you're there
It's up to you to make it happen."
