This song has a few meanings. Meaning #1. It's a song about I girl I used to like. #2. A song about feeling alone, like a reject, but knowing you're important to yourself, and possibly others. #3. A political song. #4. Whatever you make it out to be. (I know, I was so specific on the meanings wasn't I!)

“My World (I Could Care Less)”

I've been crushed, beat down, now I'm out
You’re no longer all that’s left for me
Now I’ve got nothing but myself and music
You were never all that important to me, you were only my world

Now I could care less what anyone’s got to say
I’m not letting this negativity get to me
I’m fighting for myself, not anybody else
I’m one person fighting for many cause I believe in

I’m here to lead the rejects to victory
The struggles were all just history
This story never really ends
It goes on and on till past my end

Now I could care less what anyone’s got to say
I’m not letting this negativity get to me
I’m fighting for myself, not anybody else
I’m one person fighting for many cause I believe in

I’m not being straight edge, I’m just being myself
I think straight edge is a label that should not have to be used
We’re all individuals with our own personal views and preferences
So leave me out of your world, and I’ll stay away for good

Now I could care less what anyone’s got to say
I’m not letting this negativity get to me
I’m fighting for myself, not anybody else
I’m one person fighting for many cause I believe in

This is a just a simple song I wrote about thinking I don't have what it takes. I don't think my writing is all that great, and I don't think I'm a very good musician. I'm losing inspiration and motivation to keep on writing. So this is a simple song I wrote about thinking I should just give up writing, and my dreams of becoming a musician/guitarist/singer/lyricist.

“Just Give Up”

Now I realize
My work so far is based on lies
I might as well quit so I don’t disappoint myself
I’ve got nothing for talent at all

I might as well give up
Before I let myself down
I might as well give up
I’m no good at what I love to do

I’m turning out to be
Something that isn’t me
I’m just feeling sorry for myself
Because I’ve got nothing to stand for

I might as well give up
Before I let myself down
I might as well give up
I’m no good at what I love to do

I pretend that I’ve got what it takes
But I realize I’m not all that great
My writing is nothing to celebrate
I guess I’m giving up on my life’s dream

I might as well give up
Before I let myself down
I might as well give up
I’m no good at what I love to do

This next one is about standing up for what you believe in. It's me telling myself not to be such a baby, and never give up just because I'm feeling bad.

“Revolution”

I’m going with the flow of things until the time is right
Then I’m going to strike back and fight
There’s nothing holding me back from my new plans
My old dreams are still well motivated

I don’t need to give up just because I’m in a sadder state of mind
I’m not feeling sorry for myself, now I’m helping out
It’s my time to do what I want to
I’m here for everybody who needs me, I’m here for myself

When it starts to strike a nerve it’s too late
I’m not going to wait for that, I’ll wait till it begins
And when it starts I’m standing up for what I believe in
There’s no one that can stop me, not even all the haters

I don’t need to give up just because I’m in a sadder state of mind
I’m not feeling sorry for myself, now I’m helping out
It’s my time to do what I want to
I’m here for everybody who needs me, I’m here for myself

I’m sick and tired of being ignored and pushed around
I’m gonna yell loud with the other voices making similar choices
I’m one of many, but I’m not the same
I’m not an image or a shadow of the revolution that is happening, I just am

I don’t need to give up just because I’m in a sadder state of mind
I’m not feeling sorry for myself, now I’m helping out
It’s my time to do what I want to
I’m here for everybody who needs me, I’m here for myself

Sorry for this one, it's different, and I felt I had to write it. I'm not the same as I used to be, and all of a sudden I've been hit with loads of emotion, and at the same time confusion, and I've changed.

“Never The Same”

I’m overwhelmed by all these emotions
A mix I’ve never felt before
Love doesn’t come close to it
It’s too powerful, I don’t understand

I’m missing you
You were my princess
I’m in love with you
I was you’re pervy prince
So what is wrong with me

I’m feeling less angry, less aggressive
These thoughts sustain my good side
I’m getting soft now
It’s just not like me

I’m missing you
You were my pervy princess
I’m in love with you
I was and still am yours
So what is wrong with me

I’m nothing short of what I used to be
But now I’m so different
Can’t you see
I’m more understanding about all these things

I’m missing you
You were my pervy princess
I’m in love with you
I was and still am yours
So what is wrong with me

I’ll never be the person I use to be
There’s nothing stopping me
But I’ve change and I’ve matured
Even if you think it’s for the worst

I’m missing you
You were my life
I’m in love with you
What am I to you
And what is wrong with me

This song is more about not caring, and not wanting to take responsibility for what you do. The point this song makes is that if you never do what you need to, then you probably won't get what you want out of your life.

“Irresponsible (I Don’t Want To Wake Up)”

Sitting around with nothing to do
I’m alone and I am bored
I don’t ever want to get back up
I want to rest my head for just a while longer

Waking up late
While nothing feels important
I just want to forget about today because
Waking up get hard to do
I’m tired, wake me up at half past two

The late day is full of great fun
But when it all gets done
I head to bed again
A headache ruins the night

Waking up late
While nothing feels important
I just want to forget about today because
Waking up get hard to do
I’m tired, wake me up at half past two

I’m losing sense of responsibility
All I want to do is live like me
I don’t want to do what you tell me to
I don’t want to feel like I’m back in school
I’m wasting my day
In my dreams where I ignore
Ignore the fact I’m wasting away

Waking up late
While nothing feels important
I just want to forget about today because
Waking up get hard to do
I’m tired, wake me up at half past two

“Grateful For Life”

Some days go by much too fast
It’s times like these I’m not sure I’ll last
I’m burning up, I’m falling down
I’m not the last one to stand up in this town

I feel so alone
But I know I’m not
I’m not running out of fuel
I’m asking for your help because you’re my only hope

Praying in desperation to the God I try to know
I’m not sure if I‘ll continue down this disappointing road
I will not give up faith running down the streets tonight
I’m going to be grateful that I’m alive


I feel so alone
But I know I’m not
I’m not running out of fuel
I’m asking for your help because you’re my only hope

Stalemates in this competition
I’ve seen many who win
You give me what I need, I build on that
Now I’m trying to be a champion

I feel so alone
But I know I’m not
I’m not running out of fuel
I’m asking for your help because you’re my only hope

Here's some shit I've got on YouTube, keep in mind it's not the best because I recorded those without any practice, and made up the guitar as I went.

“Living For The Music”

Tomorrow is just another day
Today is the exact same way
I’m not tired of the same old thing all the time
Just because I’m doing what I want

I’ve got my dreams that I won’t give up
I’ve got a life I would never change
If I could do it all again
I’d never do it all again

The time has finally come
Look at all these places we come from
So many people are like me
Loving music, can’t you see?

I’ve got my dreams that I won’t give up
I’ve got a life I would never change
If I could do it all again
I’d never do it all again

Constantly changing and improving
Hopefully I’m doing better all the time
Every time I get the in the mood to write
I feel as if I’ve got so much to live for

I’ve got my dreams that I won’t give up
I’ve got a life I would never change
If I could do it all again
I’d never do it all again

I'm not sure what you mean, could you make it a little more clear what you want?
Anyway, here's a new one.

“Not Love (No Substance)”

You’re so close to me, I know
Yet you’re too far for me to reach
I’m falling behind what I found that night
I’m only sure you make me think

You’re too beautiful for a guy like me
It’s obvious, anyone can see
There’s not much substance to the things I say
Whether it’s in two years or a day

Run away with me
I know you wouldn’t mind
But that’s just the thing
Do you even care

You’re too beautiful for a guy like me
It’s obvious, anyone can see
There’s not much substance to the things I say
Whether it’s in two years or a day

My love for you is strong
The bond between us is so empty
Maybe this just isn’t meant to be
Maybe you don’t truly know me

You’re too beautiful for a guy like me
It’s obvious, anyone can see
There’s not much substance to the things I say
Whether it’s in two years or a day

I completely understand what you're saying, don't worry. Thanks for the info, Here is what I wrote, please give me your feedback, and tell me if it's good enough.

“More Than Friends”

Today I have realized that I am in love
Now my head is spinning ‘round
I want to hold you in my arms
Please don’t let this moment end

I want to be much more than just friends
I never want this everlasting feeling to come to an end
You’re all that I think about at night
So please let me keep you warm
Baby, let me hold you tight

I feel like I’m in heaven
You feel we’re only friends
Now after that beautiful day I’m miserable
Where’d you go when I needed you most?

I want to be much more than just friends
I never want this everlasting feeling to come to an end
You’re all that I think about at night
So please let me keep you warm
Baby, let me hold you tight

The day has finally come that everyone has won
We have fallen in love and I am so glad
Every day from now on I want to spend with you
It’s the only way I can truly show you what you mean

Sure, I'll try tomorrow, but right now I'm going to post another song and go to bed.

“Reality Won’t Wait”

I’m saying these words just because I can
I can’t be bothered to correct the same mistakes I make over and over again
What’s the point if it all ends up in repetition
It all ends up a hopeless submission

I’m trying so hard to cope with reality
But I’m a bit of an abnormality
I’m just trying to keep myself in my own place
But I always end up having to embrace this feeling once more

Welcome home again my friend
Here’s where the troubles start and end
Something you never seem to comprehend
But you ‘re a broken soul I swear I’ll mend

I’m trying so hard to cope with reality
But I’m a bit of an abnormality
I’m just trying to keep myself in my own place
But I always end up having to embrace this feeling once more

The troubles lead to these illusions
All part of your mass delusions
They seem to be falsely attributed in profusion
All except the final price we pay

I’m trying so hard to cope with reality
But I’m a bit of an abnormality
I’m just trying to keep myself in my own place
But I always end up having to embrace this feeling once more
