A Stab at Songwriting

This is particularly about someone I used to know, but could definately cover a few people that have danced up into my life thus far...

I'd love to put music to it - however - i am without my piano and suck at guitar. Anyone?

I used to hurt for your every moment
I used to push aside my every whim
I waited quietly in your corner
For the rains to change and sweep in the sun.

Stubborn was your soft blanket and
Stubborn always held me steady to your words
I clung so hard to the glimmer
Stifled underneath the grip of the counterfeit you.

But real was less important
than clinging to the ones
Who only want you when you're covered
Covered, In light.
Beguile yourself away from the truth
and find yourself drowning,
drowning in lies.

You took from those around you to reign.
Then faltered when everything just crumbled to the floor.
It's torture to wonder
Why you don't just settle up and be strong.

But real was less important
than clinging to the ones
Who only want you when you're covered
Covered, in light.
Beguile yourself away from the truth
and find yourself drowning,
drowning in lies.

Here comes the spotlight...
this is your moment
to finally make things right.
I hear you saying that things are changing
but now I'm gone and you've just left it all the same...

All the same...

Because real was less important
than clinging to the ones
who only want you when you are covered
Covered, in Light.
Beguile yourself away from the truth
and find yourself drowning,
drowning in lies.
