I describe my ongoing lyrics writing projects. Where I get my ideas, how I match my words with other people's music, which little helpers I use...
After writing the second verse I adapted the meter of the first. I've also written a third verse that I'm not quite happy with and therefore might re-write sometime later. Maybe, maybe not. There definitely should be a bridge that could either soften the conflict or give an additional edge to it hinting on a permanent breakup as the current third verse indicates.
it's hard to explain on the phone
what it was that at last made me go
no, I've not been cheating on you
there are things that I wouldn't do
I've got tired of hearing complaints
sorry that I'm not one of your saints
I've got tired of proving my love
there are times when enough is enough
leave me some air to breathe
leave me some room to roam
'cause if you don't change your ways
then I won't be coming home
it's no help if you wince or you weep
or if you start calling me cheap
in your promises I do not trust
I think I'll hang up or I'll bust
leave me some air to breathe
leave me some room to roam
'cause if you don't change your ways
then I won't be coming home
[Bridge]
leave me some air to breathe
leave me some room to roam
'cause if you don't change your ways
then I won't be coming home
