"It's funny. Don't ever tell anybody anything. If you do, you start missing everybody." The Catcher in the Rye


Sing me a lullaby
I am about to cry
Please don't leave me
I am angry

I lived this day
I'm not okay
Madness surrounds me
Where is serenity?
You are not hear
I have to fear

I am alert
I am so hurt
Why bother?
I have to wonder

You are gone
I was wrong
You were the light
Shining brght

I am still here
My dear
I miss you
I don't know what to do

Thanks for the tip! I have actually started writing songs to the tune of other songs, like "Barbie Girl," "Tik Tok," "Roxanne," and "Electric Avenue."

It's really good! You did a good job of rhyming the lines! Do you have any idea of a tune? It might be easier to come up with a good one (if you haven't already!) if you try alternating the short lines with some longer ones.
