My sanctuary is my hell
My angel is my curse
Everytime I turn to him
Things go from bad to worse.
Everyone tried to warn me But I wanted to prove them wrong
At least now I have inspiration
For writing these sad songs.
-----CHORUS----
Say it. It doesn’t matter.
Scream it. It doesn’t matter.
Bleed it. It doesn’t matter.
Believe it. It doesn’t matter.
Everything he gave you. It doesn’t matter.
--
Close your eyes. It’s over
There’s nothing you can do
When you wake up in the morning
You’ll be the same ol’ stupid you.
You make the same mistakes
This life isn’t worth living for
But you enjoy this twisted pain
And you’ll keep coming back for more.
----CHORUS----
Say it. It doesn’t matter.
Scream it. It doesn’t matter.
Bleed it. It doesn’t matter.
Believe it. It doesn’t matter.
Everything he gave you. It doesn’t matter.
--
Don’t you see? He told you. It doesn’t matter. You don’t matter.

The author's comments:
This song was inspired by the words of my ex-boyfriend."It doesn't matter" was one of his favourite phrases, especially with anything that had to do with me.

Oh. Cool. Thanks.

It is supposed to flow like "Lazy Eye" by Silversun Pickups. I meant to put that in the explanation of the piece, but I forgot to.

Why, cuz of the "marching band playing out of time" line?

lol. Well I told him last night that my most popular ("most popular" being a relative term. lol) was inspired by him, and he thought that was cool.

But of course, he hasn't read it yet.

I'm thinking since I plan on putting song lyric excerpts on all my home-made valentines I'll probably forget to make, maybe for his I should put one of my own songs. Like "Always Yearn". unless I write a better one before then. Which hopefully I will.

You know, it's strange. I figured of the 3 songs I first submitted on this website, I figured this song would have the highest rating or get the most views or whatever of my songs, cuz I thought it was the best one.

But "Meant To Be" has gotten the most views and was voted #1 for, like, 3 minutes. lol. I was just kinda surprised.

I still haven't shown Daniel my songs yet. I want to though. Idk, I either forget or chicken out.. He SAID its neat I write songs, but he hasn't READ them yet. He may think they suck or think it's creeperish that I'm writing about him...
