Faltered - work in progress

I'm sitting here alone,
Disturbed it seems.
Just pacing in this home,
I am screaming.

I know its right
I've been up all night
Just noticing you
Finally noticing you

I just have one thing
(the sweetest dreams you wished for)
There will be time
(all crashing down around here)
Where have you disappeared?
My flame is burning out tonight

You're in my head
I try to hide you.
Descending into bed
I can't escape

It just feels right
I need you through the night
Just following you
Watching over you

I just want one thing
(the sweetest dreams you wished for)
Don't let this time
(all crashing down around here)
Where have you disappeared?
My flame is burning out tonight

I wake each day and feel this guilt
Surrounded by these walls i've built
But i have, i know, my thoughts, my own
Will she know I'm here alone

I just need one thing
(the sweetest dreams you wished for)
This is the time
(all crashing down around here)
Where have you disappeared?
My flame is burning out tonight
My flame is burning out tonight
My flame, it's light once burned so bright

    i've got a friend whose nickname is "fitz", too.



    which is kinda strange, since his last name is Smith. ;)

    Really?? wow :) I half wrote this about a year ago, when I was in another place (in my head). But i looked at it for the first time last night, since i wrote it. I did it the first time at 4am after waking up with my head thinking way too much about something. So now I've tried to turn it into a proper song. Thought maybe people could help me out with what i needed to work on :)

    But wanted to post it first without explaining that!

    ps. its the first song I've ever written.

    well my surname is fitzgerald, so thats where that comes from..
    But "X FITZY X" is my numberplate, and makes for a reasonable uncommon nickname on forums.
    Usually fitzy is taken hehe

    ahehe! well really though... I really like it. It's all raw powerful emotion. personally, i see nothing wrong with it. Now I'm not pro critic or whatever, but I just really enjoyed reading it!! I'm sure other people on here can give you pointers or whatnot. But just know it's not bad! It's very good. :) And I love that it's a song. That's the impression I got when I read it. Lovely. :)

    That's the part that's closest to my original ramblings... but I needed more obscurity in my lyrics.. (or so I thought)..

    my surname is Fitzsimons, so yeah. :p I know how the "fitz" thing goes! but that's cool that it's on your licence plate (is that what you mean by numberplate?) :)

    I knew I wouldn't have to explain it to you, I was just letting you know what kind of "fitz" I was ;)

    Yeah license plate for everyone not from here... hmm that's almost everyone hehe

    The voice is clear, direct and uncluttered. I read it out loud and can feel its musicality in the words.

    Thanks. :)
