Ok this song really needs some work and any advice or tips that you have are GREATLY appreciated :D

(Verse 1)
Tears may dry
But scars remain
Reminding us of yesturday
Feeling lost, feeling betrayed
I think it's time for things to change

(Chorus)
Everything I've gave
I only lost more
Every time I tried
I fell flat on the floor

(Verse 2)
You didn't even notice
You never really cared
All the timesI bled
All the tears I shed
You said that you would have my back
But you never lended me a helping hand

(Verse 1)
Tears may dry
But scars remain
Reminding us of yesterday
Feeling lost, feeling betrayed
I think it's time for things to change

(Chorus)
Everything I've gave
I only lost more
Every time I tried
I fell flat on the floor

(Verse 2)
You didn't even notice
You never really cared
All the timesI bled
All the tears I shed
You said that you would have me back
But you never lent me a helping hand

suggested bridge

The way has to be forward
but I face the path alone
the one we walked together
'til that last fork in the road
I just can't face another step
my heart heavy as a stone
drags me down, down til I'm
flat on the floor (/ ground)

I'd be inclined to turn the chorus into a verse and have something with a bit of hope as the chorus.

Good luck anyway

Hey I like that bridge a lot and I've thought about using this as a chorus instead. Let me know what you think.

Somehow I'll find the strength to stand
I don't need your helping hand
I'll walk down this road I chose
Standing tall, I'll stand alone

I've altered my effort to scan better

The know the way is forward
but I face the path alone
the one we walked together
'til that last fork in the road
I just can't face another step
heart heavy as a stone
dragging me down, down

Someday I'll find the strength to stand
without your helping hand
I'll walk down this road we chose
Standing tall, but walking alone

I prefer the feel of sorrow at the loss of a loved partner to a bitter put-down
