Breakthrough TrevorScrivens
Verse 1
I can[Bbm] see it in the way you walk
Its[Gbmaj7] there in the way you talk
Your[Dbmaj7/Ab] love is not the friend it used to [Fm/Ab]be
When we kiss[Bbm] you turn your head away
[Gbmaj7] You have nothing good to say
Its no[Dbmaj7/Ab] longer me your eye's long to[Fm/Ab] see
Chorus
I want to[Bbm] breakthrough
And[Dbmaj7] make you
Under[Gbmaj7] stand whats going on in my[Fm] head
I want to[Bbm] feel you
See the[Gbmaj7] real you
Or[Dbmaj7/Ab] pretty soon our love is going together[Fm/Ab] dead
I'm not faking
Verse 2
I keep[Bbm] beating myself up
[Gbmaj7]Falling on bad luck
But [Dbmaj7/Ab] for you life is just a[Fm/Ab] breeze
[Bbm] You're shutting me out
You[Gbmaj7] make want to scream and shout
If I[Dbmaj7/Ab] stay here to long my heart is going to[Fm/Ab] freeze
Chorus repeat
I'm not breaking
Bridge
[Gbmaj7] Through and it hurts[Ab6] me
As the clock ticks[Gbmaj7] down to our last good[Fm/Ab] bye
It was only[Gbmaj7] you and now you desert[Ab6] me
And I[Gbmaj7] still don't know the reason[E] why
Reapeat Chorus to end

Re: When the darkness comes (14 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Good idea Brian I only did the two verses as it goes higher and I don't thing my voice will manage it . I may change the Key and try.
No comments on "You keep putting pictures in my mind." Good or bad. Ain't songwriting alowed to be controversial?

Great song and video Phil,Jeff and Pete.. Nothing better than a man's best friend, I had a female German shepherd called zara. I still miss her and the silly things she used to do. I get another one in a heartbeat but not allowed pets in my flat.

Thanks Phil,I'm not religious but all those covid deaths must have stired something inside. I don't know why I put amen on the end. Thanks Jim peatle I have recorded a lose music track with no singing. May post that to see what you think. I do think a religious person could improve on what I've written.
