Got so many unsent letters
Wish that you would come and get them
I find myself still buying presents
Without any place to send them
And as I look out the window
Put my green eyes into place
My blood boils with desire
At someone's else's beautiful face

And It doesn't matter
How many times
You listen to the wise ones whine
And it doesn't make it
Any better
It just seems to pass the time

Why does it happen
To the hopeless
Give us something
That wont choke us
I'm too filled up with
Love injustice
So give me someone
Who can touch this

Got so many spun out emotions
Try so hard to let go of them
And I would try to swim the ocean
If it meant that I could float again
So as I am growing older
I see my view has changed
How can i ever make it right
If I know I'll never stay the same

And It doesn't matter
How many times
You listen to the wise ones whine
And it doesn't make it
Any better
It just seems to pass the time

Why does it happen
To the hopeless
Give us something
That wont choke us
I'm too filled up with
Love injustice
So give me someone
Who can touch this

Good start. I wouldchange

And I would try to swim the ocean
If it meant that I could float

just cos it came out that way as I read your lyrics.

Best,

Your songwriting skills show through in these lyrics. I agree with Alan's suggestion, as you, yourself, do but, apart from that I think this is really good. Do you put your lyrics to music?
