Just some lyrics. Can't write an actual melody as I've never been able to read music or play any instruments! Would really appreciate any suggestions on how to make this into an actual song / advice on how to make lyrics better
Piece Of You
I think it was a pointless kiss
I just can't see the benefit
Of wasting all my melodies on hating you
Got tangled in your fishnet tights
I've got to say I feel alright
Admitting that, that night, I bit your tongue right through
If you'd bled onto my carpet
Would you have told the police?
Would you have grabbed your sectioned tongue
and wrapped it in my purple fleece?
Would you have shipped it to my locker
Like a real artist would do?
Just so that I'd always have a piece of you?
You never much believed in god
but I got on my knees and thought
Of praying that we'd sew it back in two
It's sitting in my old bookcase
Your tongue, our letters, faded days
The fringe I cut for the man before you
If I was just your golden hour
What's good of this old clock?
Where I'd count the days, the weeks before
We ripped the band aid off
So come and post the parcel
Wrapped in memories, red and blue
And that goddamn flesh-pink piece
That sacred little piece
Of You.
