Open mic Songwriters Challenge week 8 - Make believe

Hello Steemians!

I'm here once more for Open mic's songwriters challenge week 8 , this week the theme was Until we meet again.

Here's my entry :

Here are the lyrics:

A meaningless fight starting up again
The same old discussion comes up again
We bring out old scars without resolution...

Oh

It's getting more difficult to pretend
Cause now it's so clear were not even friends
It only makes sense to find resolution...

And I know

It's over
The writing's on the wall
There's no need to make believe

It's over
The writing's on the wall
There's no need to make believe anymore...

Now you know I'm not the man you thought you loved
Now I know I'm not the man within your thoughts
Now you know I'm not the man you thought you loved
Now I know I'm really me and not the man you thought I had to be...

It's over
The writing's on the wall
There's no need to make believe

So long
There's nothing left to say
Until we meet again.


This song is about those moments when you are in a relationship and feel stuck, it starts out great, but then expectations are not met and it ends up being a daily battle of demands and reproach, when it is expected of you to be someone you're not, many people said it better than me, but it reminds me of a sentence in a John Mayer song; Who do you love? me or the thought of me?

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did writing it. Thank you very much for taking the time to listen, this was the most difficult one I've done for this contest, but I still enjoyed it!!!

I'm a little sad the songwriters challenge comes to an end this week, but it has given me such a push that I intend to keep writing and producing music for a long time :)

Thank you very much to @luzcypher and @meno, to @soundlegion, @krystle, @verbal-d, and @passion-ground, you guys rock!

Also @ausbitbank and @xedal and @pfunk for their incredible generosity!

To @isaria and @swelker101 and @globocop and @disarrangedjane and the MSP-waves team for sharing my music!!

And last but never ever least, everyone who shared and commented and upvoted any of my posts!

THANK YOU!!!!

Your reactions to my music and the incredibly kind words you've sent my way mean the world to me!!!!

Any ways, thanks for your time, and I'll see you on my next post!

:D
