Acoustic songs inspired by rock; interesting? original? probably not but I have a blast doing it

Wow, this is odd, having my own website. Actually, I have been playing guitar since sixth grade, and I was in a band from 8th to my senior year in high school. I wrote songs, but I never became passionate about it until my good friend and drummer Ian Sorrentino started writing his own music. I recorded my first few songs with him, and I now record in my dorm room. How cliche. LEAVE A MESSAGE ON THE BOARD IF YOU VISIT THE SITE! Four of my songs are on the Lenny and Oz 3 soundtrack: The Company I Keep, Sinking in the Sand, Blizzard and Defend Reprise (the last two not on site)

Story behind the song

This song is about some friends of mine. i the first verse is about my very good friend who decided to transfer, the second verse is about my friend who loved the school, but hated it otherwise (doesn't make sense I know)the third verse has taken on new meaning. but that's personal, so i'll save that one for me

Lyrics

I'll see you around
Your face can't hide the sound
When you go out of town
I won't feel let down

I can't leave this plac
The silence whipes the smile from my face
And tears me limb from limb
Is it your hate for me or your love for him

But the sands will shift some other day
And it breaks my heart to see you this way
And the tide will rise some other day
But it breaks my heart to see you this way

Let the voices ring
You can only hide that which you bring
And when the voices fade
Will you understand the choices you've made

But the sands will shift some other day
And it breaks my heart to see you this way
And the tide will rise some other day
But it breaks my heart to see you this way
(x2)
