So Tell Me This

(Nikki Gillespie)

Letting go of someone, letting go of a partnership..a relationship that ya thought was going to be last one you'd ever have... Can be fucking HARD!! And you sometimes are only left with questions...

I WANNA KNOW WHY…  
..So please tell me this… 
 
 …How is it I can have anybody I  
 want…… 
 but it's you that I want and it's you  
 that I miss? 
 
Tell me… why that is... 
 
I could have my pick, from all the boys.. whomever I want…  
without even trying or flaunting or making any noise 
 
 PLEASE TELL ME THIS 
 
So what's so great about you, what is it that keeps me so stuck? 
Because I can't move! Fuck! 
It's all gut wrenchingly obvious and yet can't put my finger on it to prove it 
 
 I wanna know why… 
 Please tell me… 
 …So tell me this… 
 How can it ever be you… 
 …when I'm the one you 
 don't kiss? 
 
 Please tell me why it is 
 that you treated me like 
 garbage, yet after 
 everything… 
 You, I still forgive 
 regardless? 
 
 PLEASE TELL ME THIS 
 
I thought I had everything when I had you.. 
Built in laughs as we chilled inside Peppers tunes,  
havin’ a blast, lovin' that you were my best friend and I was yours too, conversations on everything, under the Sun and the Moon... 
 
 PLEASE TELL ME THIS 
 
...maybe this is all my lesson  
I know it's not my karma 
Could be a test, maybe part of a mission…… 
I just can't rest and I'm a mess and trying to smile and be my best 
So hard to walk it off when this pain, this hurt..  
it burns and no words to describe the stinging emptiness...  
it's the worst..it's too hard to swallow  
……. Sometimes I wanna dig that hole and just crawl in it 
 
 I wanna know…  
 So please tell me this… 
 What makes me fuckin 
 want you so badly  
 …when I'm the one that 
 you don't miss? 
 
 Tell me… 
 I hafta know this… 
 Why do I care so much 
 …when I'm the one that  
 you dismissed? 
 
And it's not their fault I end up 
 picking them apart, silently… 
 thinking ’bout what they don't 
 have…instead thinking about

Hey Mom

By Nikki Gillespie

The tumultuous, more common that you may think, mother-daughter relationship... This mom and kid pair decide that maybe it's best for them to cut ties...and express that just because they have the title "Mom" "Daughter" doesn't mean that they can't walk away because they can... And without guilt! They owe nothing to no one but themselves.

I Let Her Fall

By Nikki Gillespie

These lyrics are about a Mom who, for whatever reason, left her young preteen daughter, with perhaps an older sibling or grandparents, so she could search for the answers/the meaning to her own struggles...not truly realizing the aftermath, the devastating affects of her leaving had on her broken-hearted, unguided daughter.

7 Day Downfall

By John Hanover

A little less conventional than my usual writing. A faster, and easier rhyme scheme with its pacing could be more Rap or Hip Hop. All of my lyrics are open to any genre.

It’s about a young man fighting alcohol addiction, struggling to quit and realize his true potentials. He’s trying to be introspective while drunk at the same time, so his vision kept blurring out. He frequently wakes in a hangover, but mama’s care and prayers don’t stop coming.

Blow Yer Reasons Away

By Nichole Gillespie

A couple, (that is at any other time), a very strong and bonded pair, have been now, fighting at a whole new level. Fighting that they're not used to, a fighting that is more frequent and of a caliber that's leaving a more prevalent impact on... So much so that she's about to call it quits and run... meanwhile he's saying it's just a phase, everything's gonna be ok..l
