Rough Draft #1: No Title Yet

"You think that you're so right
Relying on a self-righteous alibi
And that no one knows the truth
Except you and I.

You made a perfect lie
Out of all our days and nights
And I'm sitting here alone again

You tried last
But you did not try more more
You left me with a guilt
That no one could endure

Yet you are not to blame
For making me insane
And leaving me
On Valentine's Day"

After seeing Brandi Carlile in concert this week, I'm inspired to write more poetry and try my hand at song lyrics. Her lyrics are incredible.
