A Broken Record Player {Lyrics}

[Verse 1]
I'll pack all my tears,
And throw them all away,
Or maybe I'll send them,
To your doorway.
But maybe I'm crying,
A little too much.
Or maybe it hurts to remember,
Your touch.

[Bridge]
But whatever I see,
Whatever I feel,
You won't notice it coming from me.

[Chorus]
'Cause you won't see a smile,
Faked on my face,
You won't hear a laugh,
For another few days,
I won't forget the things,
That you never seem to remember.

[Verse 2]
But today is a new day,
And I'm finding my self,
And I don't want to cry anymore,
It hurts too much,
To play these memories,
On a record player,
My heart keeps spinning,
In an endless circle.

[Repeat Verse 1]
I'll pack all my tears,
And throw them all away,
Or maybe I'll send them,
To your doorway.
But maybe I'm crying,
A little too much.
Or maybe it hurts to remember,
Your touch.

[Bridge]
But whatever I see,
Whatever I feel...

No smile on face,
No laughs to be heard,
I'll start to forget,
The things you don't remember...

'Cause today is a new day,
And I've found myself,
And I'm not crying anymore,
It doesn't hurt much.

[Verse 3]
These fading memories,
No longer play endlessly,
On a broken record player,
That keeps spinning,
And spinning,
And spinning...
My love away....

    Lyrics are hard

    I like writing poetry but lyrics is way more difficult. Good job!

    Heeey,
    it's been a while hasn't it..
    I see you haven't lost your touch , and that's a thing to applaud..(not as much as you did though *winks*)

    I took the structure of a lyric poem from your works..
    I never knew that a lyric poem could be sentenced, and broken into parts, until I read your very early works..

    I also recognized today, thet even those structures aren't quite constant, you had the talent to manipulate the atmosphere and the form of the lyric...
    and that is why, you are always creative when it comes to lyrics..

    I find it to be your speciality...
    work on,
    and sorry for being late on my comments...
    life had shares for me I'd say...

    nvm..
    be well poet.

    Dark side eternal.

    this is a very nice write. I absolutely love the last verse. it summed (Spelling?) up the entire song very nicely. and the title fits great too. the emotions in this seemed strong. Keep up the great work. *Jordan*
