Hey guys, this isn't at all my work. It belongs to a good friend of mine, his name is Nathan and I'm wanting to prove to him how awesome his song is. **IGNORE THE TEENAGE ANGST** I find his writings really impressive, but he does not. Therefor! I've convinced him to allow me to post this, otherwise as he calls it 'not one of his best songs'.
Always Wrong
::Verse 1::
The world I live in's never a fair game
The world I live in's a world of pain
I tried to figure you out
But every clue
Every hint
Every thought just led me to more doubt
I'm just nothing more than me
Not the one you've always wanted to see
Holding onto all these thoughts of you sometimes feels like a sin
But I'm gonna do what I can to feel whole again
Cuz the hardest part of holding on is letting go
But the way I feel you'll never know
::Chorus::
I try so hard to belong (I only wanted to make you proud)
But somehow I'm always wrong (again I'm the one who let you down)
I try so hard to be strong (I wish I could stop my own heart)
But I couldn't be the one (I wanna stop tearing myself apart)
::Verse 2::
I'm so tired of hiding behind the door
I just can't take this anymore
Anymore of this life
Anymore of my mind
Who I used to be isn't strong enough to kill who I am
I've tried to hold on but i can't stand
I'm giving up
I've had enough
Enough of this life
Enough of these lies
And enough of all the things I failed to find
::Chorus::
I try to hard to belong (I only wanted to make you proud)
But somehow I'm always wrong (again I'm the one who let you down)
I try so hard to be strong (I wish I could stop my own heart)
But I couldn't be the one (I wanna stop tearing myself apart)
::Verse 3::
And I wait here
Every second seems like years
And I'm left all by myself
Alone in this hell
I was left alone
Faithless and cold
Why was I the one to lose it all?
Why did I have to be the one to fall?
::Chorus::
I try so hard to belong (I only wanted to make you proud)
But somehow I'm always wrong (again I'm the one to let you down)
I try so hard to be strong (I wish I could stop my own heart)
But I couldn't be the one (I wanna stop tearing myself apart)
::Bridge::
I can't hold on
I'm always wrong but never strong
I can't hold on
Look at this monster I've become
I can't hold on
I've tried hurting myself just to belong
I can't hold on
I'm always wrong but never strong
I can't hold on
I've tried hurting myself just to belong
I can't hold on
Look at this monster I've become

I enjoyed it. Please tell your friend that he should create a YWS.
I liked it too. It rythmed well. Tell your friend to keep on writing and to make a yws.
Hello, I'm Kate.
I really liked this. You definitely need to tell your friend that he is a very talented song writer and that he needs to continues to practice. I find teenage angst a very common topic, but the connection it has to the listeners/readers comes off strong, and in my case, I can relate very well. I hope I did an okay job reviewing this; I usually don't review lyrics.
Best of luck to your friend,
Kate
