Lost In Its Own Desire The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before I can still remember the nights that we used to share And when I would hold you when you were so scared I remember the nights that we’d spend at the beach And out toward the stars we would extend our reach While wishing upon the countless shooting stars above And my wishes were always just to secure our love I thought that nothing in the world could break us apart Until that one faithful day when everything would start It was when the bickering finally turned into screaming And now I can’t be sure just what it is that I’m feeling I was hoping that I’d be able to turn everything around But our love was destined to fail and crash to the ground I remember the silent wishes we made upon the stars It turns out that the wishes were left upon my heart And the fun that we all used to have on all those days Had turned out to be nothing in some sick, twisted way Now it doesn’t really matter how the time ticks by Because I can still remember your cold, silent goodbye The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before Our love used to burn strong like a wildfire But it was slowly lost in its own desire And it was in those last days of Autumn But none of this can ever be forgotten As the tears slowly fell when it ended It was like our love in time was suspended I still hold onto the picture of your face In my heart you’ll always have you place The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before Why does life have to be this way? Why can’t we just say what we need to say? Why does life have to be this way? Why can’t we just say what we need to say? Why does life have to be this way? Why does life have to be this way? Why does life have to be this way? From this world I just want to slip away I don’t understand this world that we are living in People give you things so they can take them back again I don’t wanna’ be part of history I just want my life to be the way that it should be Every now and then, I find a way to slip away ‘Cause every now and then, there’s only so much I can take If I find a way I will leave today The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before Why does life have to be this way? Every now and then, I find a way to slip away Why can’t we just say what we need to say? ‘Cause every now and then, there’s only so much I can take From this world I just want to slip away If I find a way I will leave today The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before The thing that I once cherished has been shattered And I just can’t take this anymore It’s as though our love had never even mattered I just wanna’ have what we had before Note: I sampled a portion of Dry Cell's "Slip Away."

Wow, as usual, amazing work . This is really deep, and writing everything in rhymes is hard... You are really talented, keep on writing!
Thanks a lot for the comments, guys. All your comments push me to keep writing more and push my talents. And, for the record, I don't have a band, but I hope to be in one sometime in the future. I plan on learning guitar next summer, hopefully, and I want to take vocal lessons.
Usually when someone takes parts of another song and puts it in theres, it ends up being crap. But in your case. Wow ! That song is amazing. You should get a band started rigth away. Your totally ready with lyrics like those.
