If u have done this real to ears words yourself u are pretty amazing with the whole outlay

Much appreciation to my uncle for allowing me to adapt his beautiful poem "Perfectly Flawed" (below) into this song.

Some might say I’m damaged goods
But I am perfectly flawed
My scars are beautiful reminders
Of where my life has been 
I look back in awe
At how life has shaped me
I’ve been cleansed by floods
And forged by fires
Felt the emptiness of nothingness
And the excesses of desires

There is nothing new in these words
You’ve heard them all before
They’re cliché because they’re true
Is my glass half empty or half full
I’m tempted to say it’s overflowing
Or an empty vessel waiting to be used
Sometimes I’m confused by living
Thinking that it’s over or just begun
One moment crying the next amused

Perfectly Flawed

Here's my latest

Lyrics:

It bothers me, when he decides  
He's not talking to me, and it  
Inspires me to get it nice and  
Wrong  

Second guess my intuition,  
Failing like a wingnut mission.  
But at least I get to sit here,  
Writing cringey country songs.  

BOOM!

But no one makes me cry like this.  
Don't think I've ever tried like this  
Only says he gives a shit  
Fore he leaves me here alone  
Oh no!  
No one makes me cry like this.  
Don't think I've ever tried like this  
Only says he gives a shit  
Fore he leaves me here alone  
Oh oh  
I gotta go

And suddenly, I'm hanging  
Precariously, defying... gravity,  
That moment of clarity.  
He could see right through me.  

BOOM!

But no one makes me cry like this.  
Don't think I've ever tried like this  
Only says he gives a shit  
Fore he leaves me here alone  
Oh no!  
No one makes me cry like this.  
Don't think I've ever tried like this  
Only says he gives a shit  
Fore he leaves me here alone.

Oh oh gotta go


But no one makes me cry like this.  
Don't think I've ever tried like this  
Only says he gives a shit  
Fore he leaves me here alone  
Oh no!  
No one makes me cry like this.  
Don't think I've ever tried like this  
Only says he gives a shit  
Fore he leaves me here alone.

Cry Like This

I used to play guitar and make instrumental music, but I gave that all up many years ago. With the rapid advancement in music technology, I decided to give it another crack using my keen ear and cutting edge tech to create some awesome tracks! Lyrics are inspired by sayings and words of wisdom found online from various sources.
