I ENDURE

V1
Obligations whir around me
My universe begins to spin
So tired of playing catch up
I'm thinking now of giving in
Time is racing forward
And I am standing still
Until I'm dragged along, behind
Forever against my will

CHORUS
But through it all
Just this one thing remains
Throughout the storm
Through all the tears and the pain
I endure
Time moves on and
I endure

V2
I cast away my burdens
But they keep falling back on me
Crushing the strength of mind
I need to guard my sanity
I'm always searching for
The thing I'll never find
A way to break the shackles of
The tyranny of time

CHORUS
But through it all
Just this one thing remains
Throughout the storm
Through all the tears and the pain
I endure
Time moves on and
I endure

BRIDGE
The world explodes around me
My mind collapses within
I close my eyes and hope
They'll never open again
Sometimes I think I can't go on
I often wish I won't
And now I pray to not go on
But time
Moves on

CHORUS
And through it all
Just this one thing remains
Throughout the storm
Through all the tears and the pain
I endure
Yes this one thing remains
I endure
Through all the tears and the pain
I endure
Time moves on and
I endure

I really Like this. I love the way it flows. I love the chorus especially the end with the double I endure. The Diction is great, the words a strong and really convey the feeling behind the song. I can hear this done in a variety of style which I always think is a nice touch. You really got a good one here.

Portia, Great song you have here. I exspesally like the first four lines in the 2nd verse. The last few lines in the bridge I stumbled with a little. But that could be just me. Overall a real good song. Take care . Nite.....


lyrics belong in songs, poems bolong in bookstores

I likey, I likey

I really like this part:

Time is racing forward
And I am standing still
Until I'm dragged along, behind
Forever against my will

I like the imagery of not wanting to go on but your life is moving on wether you like it or not.

I endure....that's good!

I don't have any critique....just wanted to give you some props!
