OK, this isn't my best work. It is intended to be a song in the future. Probably punk. Have Fun

I suffered through another un-perfect day
Now I need some music to take the pain away
I’m so sick of these feelings inside of me
So I go to the record store and buy the new CD
I pop it in the stereo and wait for the sound
Can’t stand anticipation, my heart begins to pound
The sound hits the airwaves and I know all is right
I depend on the music as it carries me through the night
It helps me when no one’s there
It takes away all my cares
It mends my heart when there’s a tear
And relieves the pain I cannot bear
My music is my escape
My music is my escape

Turning on the radio
I don’t have no place else to go
Call the DJ to play my favorite song
I sit and wait as the night drags on
Time moves slow when you’re all alone
It’s been so long since I picked up that phone
Feel the beat playing in my soul
When I’m feeling empty music fills the hole
DJ plays the song and I know it’s for me
When the music’s playing is the only time I’m free
It helps me when no one’s there
It takes away all my cares
It mends my heart when there’s a tear
And relieves the pain I cannot bear
My music is my escape
My music is my escape

I can’t stand the silence
All it brings is pain
I can’t close my eyelids
My thoughts drive me insane
There must me something else
That can clear my mind
Every time I go searching
But music is all I find
Cause my music is my escape
My music is my escape
Music is my escape

Thanks SEA. The sound I had in mind is from the band The Bouncing Souls. Calm, happy sounding punk.

Hey man,
      I totaly agree, music is MY escape from life when it starts sucking, too.  I have a song for evey occasion it seems.  I do the same thing, at times.  And I don't see how this is bad, I see no problem, it's just a little different.  I hope to read more!

Jon, I have no idea who that is LOL
I bet it's good though, it sounds like a soothing song, nothing screaming like NIN, I like it at any rate
