‘Back To Me’ #lyrics to a #pop #rock #ballad

Back To Me
lyrics by @sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

it was a long time ago
and no one cares anymore
but I do
I do
you were my everything for a moment
in time and now you flee

what can I say
what can I do
to bring you back to me
to bring you back to me
to bring you back to me

nothing is the same
I fear
since you bid me adieu
threw my heart into the sea
despite my best efforts to beg
for a repeat

what can I say
what can I do
to bring you back to me
to bring you back to me
to bring you back to me

(bridge)
close as can be
there’s nothing more you can say
to me
I have to accept
that this is the end
no more love to be found
I’m down on the ground

what can I say
what can I do
to bring you back to me
to bring you back to me
to bring you back to me

‘I Drink Whiskey’ — #lyrics to a #pop #rock #ballad

Here you go. I’m drunk enough that I find myself writing lyrics as a form of mental masturbation.

I Drink Whiskey
lyrics by @sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

don’t know what to tell you
when the mood strikes me
it can be sublime
I don’t drink wine
nor whine if I drink beer
but in a pinch no matter what
I always drink whiskey

whiskey has a kick
that I feel in my gut
I drink whiskey it’s true
what else am I going to do
but drink whiskey, drink whiskey
drink whiskey

my mind is racing
thinking of you naked
maybe if you drink with me
we’ll have a tumble between the sheets
something we’ll both regret
who knows though
a baby may come of it

whiskey has a kick
that I feel in my gut
I drink whiskey it’s true
what else am I going to do
but drink whiskey, drink whiskey
drink whiskey

(bridge)
I try to stay sober
I really do no matter what
but when you leer at me
and say you’re feeling saucy
I know what will cause some audacity

whiskey has a kick
that I feel in my gut
I drink whiskey it’s true
what else am I going to do
but drink whiskey, drink whiskey
drink whiskey

‘A Constant Companion’ — #lyrics to a #pop #ballad

A Constant Companion
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

never can forget you
even if I wanted to
you are always by my side
and within me
people may come and go
but you’re my
constant companion
constant companion
constant companion

you fade but never leave
make me think I can do as I please
but you come roaring back
leave me flat on my back
from the pain left by desire
but you’re my
constant companion
constant companion
constant companion

(bridge)
all alone I moan
you’re gone I’m sure
leaving me when my heartache
then you return telling me
it was all a fake

the doctors just say its in my head
something to live with
to experience in the end
no matter how much chagrin
but you’re my
constant companion
constant companion
constant companion

a constant companion
a constant companion
a constant companion
a constant companion

‘Terribly Negative Person’ — #lyrics to a #pop #rock #ballad

Terribly Negative Person
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

don’t call me bitter
I’m not your babysitter
people come and go in your life
isn’t it a sight
you have the gall to say
to my dismaay
that I’m a
terribly negative person
terribly negative person
terribly negative person

don’t you dare give me
a blank stare of a dare

don’t you dare give me
a blank stare of a dare

I’m not what you think
I swear, I swear
I’m not a
terribly negative person
terribly negative person
terribly negative person

I might bet a bit better
but you would be too
if you had your heart broken
by someone like you
but you’re cruel in the extreme
to scream that I’m a
terribly negative person
terribly negative person
terribly negative person

(bridge)
I remember when I had hope
and love did not seem on the ropes
but you came into my life
now I don’t know what is a lie
and what is true

don’t you dare give me
a blank stare of a dare

don’t you dare give me
a blank stare of a dare

I’m not what you think
I swear, I swear
I’m not a
terribly negative person
terribly negative person
terribly negative person

I might bet a bit better
but you would be too
if you had your heart broken
by someone like you
but you’re cruel in the extreme
to scream that I’m a
terribly negative person
terribly negative person
terribly negative person

‘Unwanted Hugs’ #lyrics to a #pop #rock #ballad

I’m really proud of this one.

Unwanted Hugs
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

the break up was a year ago
we’re no longer a thing
in the end it was all a game
but what can I say I still
look forward to seeing you and the
unwanted hugs
unwanted hugs
unwanted hugs

if it wasn’t for unwanted hugs
what would we have
if it was’t for unwanted hugs
our relationship would be dead

here come close
close enough to smell
I need one of those
unwanted hugs
unwanted hugs
unwanted hugs

people claim we made a cute couple
maybe we did I don’t know
but all I know is how you feel
when I go in for one of those
unwanted hugs
unwanted hugs
unwanted hugs

if it wasn’t for unwanted hugs
what would we have
if it was’t for unwanted hugs
our relationship would be dead

here come close
close enough to smell
I need one of those
unwanted hugs
unwanted hugs
unwanted hugs

(bridge)
when the hugs were wanted
and things were going well
things were just so swell
but that was a long, long time ago
now all I’ve got are

unwanted hugs
unwanted hugs
unwanted hugs
unwanted hugs

‘Don’t Look Back’ – #lyrics to a #pop #rock #ballad

Don’t Look Back
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

keep your eyes on the prize
if you look back
you’ll taste salt
the bitterness will get you
and you’ll just be a pile
of guilt in the sand

don’t look back
is my refrain
don’t look back
the past is receding fast
history can’t be changed
believe me I’ve tried
don’t look back
don’t look back
don’t look back

in my dreams it’s all fixed
your love returns in a second
then I awake and have a drink
guilt for what could have been
is going to kill me in the end

don’t look back
is my refrain
don’t look back
the past is receding fast
history can’t be changed
believe me I’ve tried
don’t look back
don’t look back
don’t look back

(bridge)
the focus on the present
knowing that’s the right way to be
but my grief arises from soul
overcomes me yet again
and again and again

don’t look back
is my refrain
don’t look back
the past is receding fast
history can’t be changed
believe me I’ve tried
don’t look back
don’t look back
don’t look back

‘Delusional’ — #Lyrics to a #Pop #Rock #Ballad

Delusional
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

I have a lot of dreams
may come across as a jerk
but I mean well in my heart
yet that doesn’t stop her from saying
that I’m a

delusional jerk with a good heart
delusional jerk with a good heart
delusional jerk with a good heart
good heart good heart

we yell and fight maybe even bite
she wonders aloud if we’re still in love
all I can say is I hope so bitch
she looks at me and cries
you’ll never again be between my thighs
because you’re a

delusional jerk with a good heart
delusional jerk with a good heart
delusional jerk with a good heart
good heart good heart

(bridge)
it once was not like this
I was centered and she was sober
we loved each other in the real world
not just in my dreams
but that’s all over now and I’m just

delusional jerk with a good heart
delusional jerk with a good heart
delusional jerk with a good heart
good heart good heart

‘All Clear’ #Lyrics To A #Pop #Rock #Ballad

All Clear
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

rush to the door
once we hear the last roar
don’t you fret
this is the end of it I bet
onw we’re all just waiting
for the all clear, all clear, all clear

the all clear from the violence
no more unexpected bangs or booms
the all clear is here
the all clear is here
the all clear is here

our love of the future makes us blink
why do we have to live life on the brink
the jets come and go
but my love remains here with you
can you feel its roar
but when it comes to want you in my life
it will never be said that

the all clear is here
the all clear is here
the all clear is here
no more unexpected bangs or booms
no more unexpected bangs or booms
the all clear is here
the all clear is here
the all clear is here

(bridge)
the darkness of the night
hides the turbulence of the fight
explosions abound I’m afraid
no all clear is heard
and until dawn arrives

the all clear is here
the all clear is here
the all clear is here
no more unexpected bangs or booms
no more unexpected bangs or booms
the all clear is here
the all clear is here
the all clear is here

‘Siren’ — #Lyrics To A #Pop #Rock #Ballad

Siren
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

can you hear the air raid siren
can you here the air raid siren
can you here the air raid siren

hold me close so I can get a dose
this may be it
this may be the end my love
we’re not longer on the run
it’s just you and me
on the edge of destiony
what’s that I hear
it’s the air raid siren

can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren

we’re under the ground
but I won’t let you frown
keep your hopes up
it’s all we got at this point
when things are so rough
but now again the sound rings out
what’s that I hear
it’s the air raid siren

can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren

(bridge)
we they give the all clear
I’ll hold you tight
know you’re without fright
the fight has just begun
we’re never going to run
even when we hear the air raid siren

can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren

‘Risk Another’ — #Lyrics to a #Pop #Ballad

Risk Another
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

lovers come and go
but your departure
came as a blow
what am I to do
to right my ship of state
I can’t even get out of bed
to go on a date

I had a lover
I don’t think
I’d risk another
I’d risk another
I’d risk another

our love was sublime
inspired me to great heights
now I struggle to put words together
that rhyme
but I have to push forward
keep the faith
because tomorrow is another date

I had a lover
I don’t think
I’d risk another
I’d risk another
I’d risk another

(bridge)
my love for you is enternal
the grief I feel now that you’re gone
is eternal, too
but one day I’ll recover I swear
and maybe make a baby

I had a lover
I don’t think
I’d risk another
I’d risk another
I’d risk another
