Don't let the sun go down on your anger.
Hey, thanks for stopping by. I'm just a guy who likes writing songs, and this is a place for me to put the songs I write for others to critique.
Story behind the song
Ever been on the receiving end of a cold-shoulder from a close friend? Me too.
Lyrics
Slow down, watch the sun set on a perfect day
We'll never see it shine this way again,
Fire ripping through the clouds like scissors
Making holes where my face used to be
Hold down, my head below the water's surface
I'll pay the price to lift this bloody curse
If you'll breathe life back into flooded lungs
At least I taste your lips 'til I revive
(Chorus)
How can we avoid this tragedy
When all the actors quit the stage
Left alone in the dusty spot light
Lord, I hate soliloquies
Hoe down, square dance with your cruel intentions
Wall flower, couldn't break in if I dared to
You lead, step on my toes if you like
Just free a slow dance up before we say good-night
Roll on, tumble weed what you reduce to
Dried out, tangled ball of former bouquets
Somewhere past your teeth a smile waits to save to day
Just speak into this scene in which I have no lines
(Bridge)
Feeling scripted
You don't have to read those lies
No conviction
Can I ask for one more try
(Chorus)
How can we avoid this tragedy
When all the actors quit the stage
Left alone in the dusty spot light
Lord, I hate soliloquies
