A song I wrote about a very tough break up i went through. Its all autobiographical and very honest. I hope you guys can relate. I wrote this in about November 2010 and finally got it down in April 2011. I hope you guys can relate.
Let me know what you think guys, im trying to make music thats different so if you like it that's really cool but sorry if it's not to your taste.
Peace
Lyrics:
(chorus/intro)
I don't wannna' go back to London Town,
The coldness of the streets has got me down,
memories of you hang over my shoulder,
and every single day this place gets colder,
so I dont wanna go back to London Town,
Im never alone when I walk around,
Everywhere I go I see your face,
and all of this pain I can't escape!
Verse:
Sat on the train and Im racking my brain,
Writin' why my heart has started crackin' again,
With my pen in my hands and your words in my head,
My words you never heard but they deserve to be said,
I bloody loved you I would'a took a bullet I promise you,
Now I know that wasn't returned that fact burns honest to,
God its odd what did i do to ruin this?,
I cared I was there and know you swear you're through with us,
An here I am a broken man travellin',
On the train headin' back to the city that we unravelled in,
Let's go back to when I ran to Camden,
Just to try and talk but you screamed 'walk back home' and then,
Said 'you didn't care were finished leave me alone',
Less than a day after you F*cking dumped me by phone,
Then its back and fourth havin' wars you know how to f*ck me off,
Tellin' friends I pushed you, Yelling 'f*ck you' then you cut me off,
But I was addicted in this sick cycle of psychology,
But I'm not gunna' mourn no more even if you've forgotten me,
My mind f*cking hates you but my heart is irrational,
Plus thoughts of us before the trash are littered over the capital,
Chorus:
I don't wannna' go back to London Town,
The coldness of the streets has got me down,
memories of you hang over my shoulder,
and every single day this place gets colder,
so I dont wanna go back to London Town,
Im never alone when I walk around,
Everywhere I go I see your face,
and all of this pain I can't escape!
Verse:
And now I'm waiting for a text I know won't ever come,
'Cause i said and did the stupidest sh*t I think I've ever done,
i know I screwed up hugley when we first moved to uni but,
The way you changed in those first few days was truly f*cked,
Using me to help you sleep then blank me when the rough is up,
An After i had enough and hung up you pretend i f*cked us up,
Saying 'awwww Matthew have you ruined it for yourself?',
And Ignoring all my calls when you knew I need your help,
Telling me you dont love me and how you'll easily find better,
like I was f*cking nothing to you if thats true forget ya,
Forget everything I did everyway I made you smile,
Everway I tried to help and drove you everyday for miles,
Our walks in Sutton wharf our talks sat by the ford,
But I think I get it why you did it is it not that I'm the cause,
But that you needed to find yourself and I'm a reminder of your past,
And i was way too immature to be kind and let you pass,
I gripped even tighter when you needed to let go,
I wouldn't free you so I hurt you and didn't mean to get so,
Crazy on you but baby the way I loved you wasn't sober,
It was too strong for me to fight it even when you said it's over,
You made it crystal clear sh*t I was just too blind to see,
So I'm sorry for everything and I apologise for me...
Chorus:
I don't wannna' go back to London Town,
The coldness of the streets has got me down,
memories of you hang over my shoulder,
and every single day this place gets colder,
so I dont wanna go back to London Town,
Im never alone when I walk around,
Everywhere I go I see your face,
and all of this pain I can't escape!
I don't wannna' go back to London Town,
The coldness of the streets has got me down,
memories of you hang over my shoulder,
and every single day this place gets colder,
so I dont wanna go back to London Town,
Im never alone when I walk around,
Everywhere I go I see your face,
and all of this pain I can't escape!

*This track contains elements of Some Devil by Dave Matthews
*The into for this track has since been rerecorded and sounds much less weak and pathetic.
Hey everyone thanks for the feedback, yes it's like an interpolation! So it's has the riff but it's been sped up and moved around on the fret board with extra notes and more Rythm I hope you enjoyed it :)
