sink

a darker piece (song lyrics) for a contest -- it's about suicide, trying to overcome your troubles, but still being dragged down

watching the tides

of mesmerizing hues

so bright and blue

washing up on the shore

summer memories

playing the guitar

by the beach

music fills the empty air

and teardrops spill everywhere

shattered hopes and dreams

oh, oh, oh

i refuse to sink 

this world is pulling me down

but i'll stand back up

and prove them wrong

yeah these waves will try

to drown me in their embrace

but i will push them away

cause i refuse to

sink

daisy chains around my throat

my song turns to gasps

as my lungs start to choke

i just have to hold on

a little tighter

oh, oh, oh

i refuse to sink

this world is pulling me down

but i'll stand back up

and prove them wrong

these broken memories

lost in the warm breeze

don't forget them

cause no matter what

you cannot sink

beneath waves of playful glory

that pull you in for a little dance

spins you round and round

but you won't ever

come back up

Hana, this is my second visit to your page and again I have to say ,an excellent lyrical content. Am also an performer in my college and I appreciate your lyrical work. I used to write plenty of lyrics and just perform them in college. Your chorus was marvellous
oh, oh, oh
i refuse to sink
this world is pulling me down
but i'll stand back up
and prove them wrong
Keep it up hana, have a nice time.

oh taylor, did you watch her latest music video blank space ,she looking so cute as well quite dangerous. Whatever I just love her. And nice you got to witness her concert. She has never visited to india but I think I'll go to her and ask for her hand. And I know she will never deny because I have faith in my music and my love.
