You can find a way to make this better
Find a way to bring us home
You could open up my heartfelt letter
Or spend this season all alone
Perhaps it’s something I can’t change
Perhaps it’s something no-one can
I wish it could have finished
The way that it began

Just looking for a fresh start
A way to empty a heart full of regret
I wish I could reset myself
Cause this is the year I want to forget

I miss the times we shared together
Miss the times you smiled
Miss the times spent in the heather
Where we used to go and hide
Hide from all the problems
Hide from all the hurt
And never did we care
About the grass stains and the dirt

Just looking for a fresh start
A way to empty a heart full of regret
I wish I could reset myself
Cause this is the year I want to forget

I’m letting go slowly
It’s so hard to forget
But maybe, just maybe
You’ll  depart my life today
Help me forget the things that bring me back to you
Cause all they do is bring more hurt

Comments would be very much appreciated.

hey there man.

i like your chorus line "Cause this is the year I want to forget".  I think you and I have a tendancy to write in a similar style, in the sense that we describe the feelings and "scenerey" of what's going on in your head.  I think your song is good, and with a catchy melody, it would be really nice to listen to.  I'm trying to decide what this would sound like with music... is it meant to be slower?  or maybe punk-ish?  I dunno If you let me know, I'll try to wrap my head around some more.  I'd hate to through down some goofy comment about the song that I don't know very well...

O wow! This is a very good song i really like the opening verse! Do you have any music to go along with it????

No I have no music to it. Don't play any instruments so I just write instead. I think of it as being a slower song, umm...but with the genre being Alternative/Rock/emo probably. Definitley Acoustic. See what you think!

I hope this adresses your comments. SAM
