OK, so this song I wrote two years ago, in 7th grade. It can be inferred two ways. One, is that its a girlfriend leaving the boy...basically in the dust and he has no idea what to do. Second, what LIFE has taken from any one of us..(what I intended it for). When I wrote this song, it was not one of my happiest times...but neither are any of my songs

Taken Away

I want you to see
What you've done to me
You've taken away
All I have
I've lost all hope in life
There's nothing left for me

[Chorus]
I can't take this anymore
I want it back
Like it was before
But nothing I say
Will change time

These feelings I feel
Are unknown to me…lost from me
You've taken it away
And I want it back
But you won't give it back
Just give me something to live for

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
I'll find a way
To live like this
Lost and alone
All by myself
I can't escape you
You're all around me (x2)

[Chorus]

Hope you like it, and as always, Comments returned ASAP. Please do comment...I know its not perfect. None of them are.

Nice job and pwerful message, life beats ya down, find a way to get back up. The only thing I would say is that this line "Are unknown to me…lost from me" maby shouldn't have the "lost from me", it doesnt really seem to fit. Thats just my opinion take it for what worth you want.

lol same here, i do football and wrestling, so it takes up alot of time usually... i almost always write songs in school when i daze off, not to brag but im very good at drums/piano/tenor sax, weird combination..., im learning guitar I have down 3 power chords, and i've been practicing so i can play faster, its coming along but it will take a while. If your really interested in guitar, take short periods of time and watch a lesson video or go over to a friends house who has been playing 2+ years, and ask for advice. Whew this is a long post.
