It’s been a long long time but I won’t forget what you’ve done You used me like the other ones til all my dreams were gone I hadn’t thought about it then someone asked me where you had been I just had to say you were long long gone What if I write a song to tell everyone the way I feel? Although you’ll never hear it you’ll know I’m madder than a mother who lost her baby yesterday I swear I’m better now, but I lost a lot of faith yeah I lost a lot of faith because of you So it goes…and the beat goes on and on and on I’m doing so much better now, in fact I’m happier now than I’ve ever been with someone else I hear that you’re still struggling to find yourself and live on your own I wish that made me angry, or sad but I feel nothing anymore So it goes…and the beat goes on and on and on

Looking back - no more forward Walk away - can’t go homeward Don’t you know - you have lost me Don’t you know - you have cost me My heart is numb to you, can’t you see My head above the clouds, finally breaking free You’re out of my head, You’re out of your mind I’m out of feelings for you I’m better off dead I'm better off blind To the things that you do We’re both better off, now we are through No more words - we’re done talking No more pain - since I’ve been walking I can only hope - that I get by I can only hope - that I can fly My heart is lighter now, without you My head is clearer now, that we are through If I had a doubt, it is over now Now that I am out, I have seen how I to live without Your dark forbidding cloud You’re out of my head, You’re out of your mind I’m out of feelings for you I’m better off dead I'm better off blind To the things that you do We’re both better off, now we are through

Miss you in the morning, lost my appetite Miss you in the evening time, no more kiss goodnight Quiet time is not what I need now… no no All outta love, all outta love All outta love, you’re all that I’ve been thinking of… thinking Thought we’d be forever, thought you liked my smile Always turned to never, now I’m outta style Solitary never felt so low…. All outta love, all outta love All outta love, you’re all that I’ve been thinking of… thinking

v1: sometimes the best cliches turn out to be true you're put to the test and you fail, even though you knew what to do and I've got 2 good eyes but they failed to realize ch: so this is my apology for everything that went wrong you must have known you'd get one did you think it would take so damn long I don't want to take the blame but I'll take it just the same this is my apology v2: sometimes the best laid plans just weren't meant to be I took all the rest of your dreams and scattered them to sea and I've got 2 good ears but they failed when you were near ch: so this is my apology for everything that went wrong you must have known you'd get one did you think it would take so damn long I don't want to take the blame but I'll take it just the same this is my apology br: goodnight, darling another over & out so long, sweetheart you were warned a million times oh, how I tried I let you down I let you down ch: so this is my apology for everything that went wrong you must have known you'd get one did you think it would take so damn long I don't want to take the blame but I'll take it just the same this is my apology this is my apology this is my apology

How many punches can you take Before your will begins to break I’ve got enough to last all night When will you lose your will to fight? This ain’t the way I thought it’d go I counted dreams like dominos I thought that I was in control A lesser love can take the toll I wish I knew just why I feel There’s no-one at the steering wheel Someday I’m gonna get to the core Of why I don’t love you anymore So here’s the part where I decide The kind to kill, the tears all dried And here’s the part where you play dumb As if you never saw it come I stand against the icy stream It pulls me down, I wanna scream I know just where I wanna go No one can stop the river’s flow I wish I knew just why I feel There’s no-one at the steering wheel Someday I’m gonna get to the core Of why I don’t love you anymore
7.
Well you closed the book Barely halfway in And put it back on the shelf Closed your eyes  said silent prayers To wake up someone else Ghosts don’t have the time of day But they’re always keeping watch Nagging with their bitter hearts No fear of being caught They don’t care that their being there Might cause you too much pain They just hold hands with the shadows Like diggers beside the grave But each new day Before the mirror confirms You know all to too well There’s new lines To criticize  This haunted empty shell Ghosts don’t have the time of day But they’re always keeping watch Nagging with their bitter hearts No fear of being caught They don’t care that their being there Might cause you too much pain They just hold hands with the shadows Like diggers beside the grave

about

Here’s the assignment from Chris:

"I had a mentor joke with me once that there are only to types of songs that 100% of people can relate too, Love Songs and Love Gone Wrong songs… Your challenge is to tackle the love gone wrong song. Like last month, I’m leaving all stylistic choices up to you. For an extra challenge though, see if you can keep it uptempo. Good luck!
