Slam Shut - original song by Matt Moran

SLAM SHUT
Copyright (c) 2009 - Matthew Moran


She said she was looking for a better life
A brand new start, a way to jump this bumpy ride
Her broken dreams and shattered faith had been tossed aside
But give her time to find herself and shell get by

He hitched himself a ride just south of L.A.
Wondered if it would drop him short or take him all the way
As the city receded it was begging him to stay
He had nothing to lose, he had nothing to say

(chorus)
Slam shut another door
Chalk it up to just one more
Relationship thats gone awry

You cant hold onto to your past
Or what was never meant to last
You gotta give in if your gonna get by


Verse:
You make your bed when you make your mind
You gotta sleep in it, you gotta do the time
Theres no use second guessing what is yours and what is mine
If the truth be told youve been doing fine

Another great song, you got talent. You should try out for one of those reality shows like Nashville Star of America's got Talent.
