The Best of Me - Randy Dowling

****Feel Free to Comment and Rate*****

This is a song I wrote called "The Best of Me." I wrote it during a time in which I literally felt like the best of me had passed me by. I kept on smiling and nobody knew what was happening inside me. I felt like someone different inside.

I'm not the best singer and I'm not the best guitarist, but I enjoy what I do. My videos will contain flat singing, bad notes, jerky head movements, poor lighting, and me doing what I love to do. I get tired of trying to make the perfect take, so sue me. All songs and lyrics are copyrighted by Randy Dowling unless otherwise described as covers. Enjoy!

There's a feeling inside that I just can't shake
I feel like my world is crashing down
I hide behind another fake smile
You'll never know the pain I hold inside

I want to cry, but it just won't come
My eyes are dry and my heart is numb
I hide behind another fake smile
You'll never know the pain I hold inside

What have I become? The best of me is gone...
What have I to show? The best of me is gone...
What have I to lose? The Best of me is gone...
What am I to do? The best of me... The best of me is gone...

It's been three days since the last time I could eat
and it's been three more since my last full night of sleep
So I hide behind another fake smile
You'll never know the pain I hold inside

Don't down yourself man. You're great; voice, music, and lyrics.

If people don't like it, fuck em... they don't have to watch.

[FunkMeHarder]

I think you need to write/upload more music!

Please take these tears to cool your wounds, nothing is gone.

As i sat here listening to your song I also felt it. With my eyes closed i could see the incredible video that could go along with it, and the orchestra playing backup, brought me to tears. I love your song it hits home for me in many ways. Thanks for posting it
