PLease co critique, don't know how to get the flag on. But you're more then welcome. as long as it's constructive! Best Wishes, Brian. "You're Still The One" (09/18/02) © 2002 Brian Eggertsen, All Rights Reserved Verse 1 Well I had almost forgotten But then I saw a picture of you, Memories came crawling back Felt fine before now I'm feeling blue. How could I think it would work Covering up all the missing you's, With fake feelings, empty smiles 'Cause whatever I do it's no use. Chorus You're still the one, Whose cup of love's always filled, Whose castle I want to build. You're still the one, The one who keeps me strong, Within whose heart I belong. You're still the one, you are. Verse 2 Heartbreaking tears flood my eyes Just as raindrops drown the windowpane, Left you feeling barenaked And my reasons why are filled with shame. Had I only stopped to think Instead of just passing on the pain, Maybe I had realized It was I who was losing the game. 'Cause... Chorus Bridge The air I breathe ain't fresh no more 'Cause you're not by my side, And I'm caught in my inner shores In a socking wet desguise. Listen to what I have to say, I'm done running away. For... Chorus |

First things first - to activate your flag go into your profile and scroll down until you see a box next to a statement called "encourage critiques," or some such thing. Click the little box and put a critique message in the big box. That's how it works. I found myself enjoying most of this, but a few times you forced the rhyme a little too noticably. I'd reconsider lines like "whose castle I want to build." That kind of threw the flow off a bit for me. Aside from that, the chorus was well-taken for me... you seem quite familiar with the structure of a written song. So I don't suppose I'm one to question that. Looking forward to your next.

I agree with Parasite about the forced rhymes. I did enjoy this one a lot. ~Suzy ~*~Born to Blossom and Bloom to Perish~*~ |

I'm gonna put it short: I wish my man had the guts to write this sort of thing for me. Unfortunately, they can't all be perfect Death is not extinguishing the light; |
