i was at work today, standing at the register bored as HELL and got hit with this idea. i have all these little side notes written on the paper about speed and mood but i don't know how i'll add them in. please be brutly honest about this please! i'm very open to critques! so ... enjoy!!
"i thought"
[opening]
i thought i wanted you
wanted you all for me
needed you to love me ...
[v1]
but now that you care
i don't want it from you
you hang on my every word
and it kind of makes me sick.
[v2]
you leave me 40 messages
when you know i'm away
you never give me time
time for myself.
[chrous]
i thought i needed you
needed someone to need me
but now that you're finally giving me
the attention i craved i don't want it ...
from you.
[v3]
you wanted to make plans
every single day
you push me
when i'm already on the verge.
[v4]
you never want to let me go
always want to be with me
and although it sounds like an idea
a girl needs some space.
[chrous]
i thought i needed you

but now that you're finally giving me
the attention i craved i don't want it ...
from you.
[bridge]
i love you before
and you pushed me away
now its the other way around
so i'll do the same.
[chrous]

the attention i craved i don't want it ...
from you.
please let me know what you think. i wasn't going to label every part of the song but i figured it would help with side notes. for the [opening]music is soft, acoustic guitars and gives off the feeling of romance but once [v1] starts, to the end, it is more acoustic but more angry feeling and louder.

"listen, ryan's at it again. he just got stabbed in the eye with a fork and now he has to rock a pirate patch for atleast a month. its ridiculous." 'valo' *bam margera*
Most of the verses appear to fall apart at the end due to a lack of rythme
for example: I may have misunderstood your intention but for the bit
and although it sounds like an idea
a girl needs some space.
i would have wrote:
and an idea though it sounds
time and space are her bounds
Hope this helps.
People talk of situations,
Read books, repeat quotations,
Draw conclusions on the wall.

I dont think its the ryhming which you need to worry about, but i felt that the rythym of the verses began to breakdown, towards the end. for example:
You never give me time,
time for myself.
I cant see how the rythm works here thats all.
On the plus side, a nicely worded song!
Keep up the good work
