That's Not Me

Most of my songs are about failing relationships or heartbreak, as this exemplifies.

 And time moves too fast

In this world surpassed

While the footsteps echo 

Voices from the past

 

Girl, please don't listen

They know not what they say

I promise, i'm not like that

I don't act that way

 

 

Chorus:

Just give me a chance

To show you the real me

Grant me just one dance

And i'll try to make you see

That the boy you've heard

All those things about 

Always flips the bird

Gets drunk, high, and shouts

That's not me

That guy that dates a girl

Just to get her in bed

And when his plan unfurls

Just leaves her for dead

I promise you this to believe

That's not me

 

 

I don't know who started these grapevines

But they're fake from the mild to the strong

And that child in her is not mine

And she's known it all along

 

I never touched her like that

She just wants to ruin my life

So that while she sits and gains fat

She'll have some sort of delight

But i'm not like that

 

Chorus

 

Now tell me what you believe

I want to hear it straight from you

Will you side with her or with me

I want to know what i should do

 

If i should go on living

With your love in me

Or if i should get 

Revenge on the one that hates me

 

Oh please

Believe me

 

That's not me

nice flow to it.

i got a rhythm in my head reading it.

some of the rhymes were a little weak, or akward (the gaining fat line was a little weird...and i don't mean it was just strange because this is art here, but i mean, it was a strange place for it as far as context. in fact the whole second verse just kinda seems like you were trying to make it look longer than it really should be. broke up the flow pretty bad there.)

love the rhythm
