The Void
I started writing this song last night with one of my bandmates (they're also my best friend). It's about tearing yourself apart for everyone elses' entertainment, like you don't understand why you do it and you don't know how to stop so you just... keep ruining your own life. It's a really personal song, and we're gonna figure out guitars for it at some point in time, but for now I'm really proud of the lyrics. It's kind of like Letter To God by Hole, like that's how I want it to be sang.
I love writing songs, they always mean so much to me. The lyrics are below the divider :), let me know what you think!! My band has a Tumblr that I post on a lot, I'm honestly the only member whose active on there.
am i still pretty to you,
when im ruining the whole world?
am i still lovable to you,
when im fucking everything you love?
all for you,
all for your love,
im ruining myself,
and i hope you know it.
am i still pretty to you,
when im damaging our love?
am i still lovable to you,
when im ruining you?
can you tell me what to do,
cuz i cant go on like this.
am i still pretty to you,
when im fucking up your life?
am i still lovable to you,
when im picking you apart.
in this hole of mine,
i fill the void,
with the pleasure of you watching me,
ruin me.
