Run and Hide

This is the 2nd song I ever wrote with vocals. It consists of a guitar and my vocal chords.
Solo Artist
My band is all me, every instrument you hear is played by me, myself and I. I hold a degree in music education but my concentration is on classical saxophone. I picked up playing some guitar chords here and there from my dad, they don't teach us guitar in college. They also don't teach us how to write rock songs, I learned that by simply expressing myself with what I knew about simple chord structures from music theory.

Story behind the song
It was inspired by the break up of an ex-girlfriend. I wanted to convey anger in the best way I could without resorting to swearing. The result is quite poetic yet threatening. I need to redo this song and put some drums in it eventually. Funny though, I'm now still friends with the girl who inspired this song.
Lyrics
Verse 1 Listen to the breaking fall So deep within me Here the crys of a thousand men At loss See a storm of darkened coulds Raging toward me When I think of your and I, this is how I feel Verse 2 Every day that’s passed me by I think about it How could I forget the lies And selfish mender-ment You think that I don’t know about Your unfaithfulness What’s wrong with you why aren’t you true I don’t need this Chorus I don’t feel the need for your ignorance If you challenge me, I’m gonna win There’s a hate that breeds in me for incompetence You’d best run and hide, cuz you’re gonna get it (whisper) “run and hide” Verse 3 I hope you know that what you’ve done Is so serious The punishment you will endure Will never end The pain will burn in your heart For the crime you’ve commit You can only run, try and hide You’re gonna get it Chorus
