Beth Nielsen Chapman commented on millenialjukebox's lyric:

"Karly I want to speak to the direction of these lines. This is powerful and would work with a different kind of song. The tone we've set so far is more like "I'll love you anyway even when I can't get you to see my side" which is a far cry from "get outta my face"....that's a total different relationship...not to say you couldn't write the whole song in that direction but I don't think it works to try to have both in one song..."

Lyric by millenialjukebox:

"Get outta my face / Drop that gun from your shoulder / Some kids today / Only know afraid / Stop the hate / Before it claims another life..."

Clay Mills commented on millenialjukebox's lyric:

Beth Nielsen Chapman commented on millenialjukebox's lyric:

"We're all starting to grab similar phrases....it's great!

So here's my take off your verse Karly:

close!

I don't want to be unkind
But I don't understand the way you see
I don't think the truth can shine
Just cause we agree to disagree

I don't want to be unkind
But I don't understand the way you see
Nothing in the truth's design
Could ever just agree to disagree
"

Lyric by millenialjukebox:

"I don't mean to be unkind / Can we both agree to disagree / Darlin' there's no use tryin' / We won't see eye to eye, guaranteed /"

"it's not there quite yet but I'm just playing with options.....it's a bit dense in meaning....so much detail in being simple and effortless!"

Every heartbeat reminds me / How bittersweet life can be / Prayers for perfect tomorrows, only leaves you hollow / Love shines in the tough times
Every heartbeat reminds me / Better play my cards wisely / Oh, if I fold tomorrow, life's a full house of sorrow / Take it day by day, just let it ride
That you're still beside me / On this roller coaster ride, these crazy twists in our lives /I'm with you through the highs and lows
Every heartbeat reminds me / All the ways you helped define me / We're not guaranteed tomorrow, or any day that follows / So I'm turning my wrongs into rights
Won't care if your lips leave a red lipstick kiss
Laugh until it hurts with the ones I cherish
Take time to make time / check off my bucket list
That nine to five grind, need a place to unwind / So I put pedal to metal, won't stop drivin' 'til I feel settled / A sunset, FM, and no clouds
The expense of regret, well it ain't worth it/ All the words we couldn't say, while I watched you fade away/Took you for granted somehow
How about we stop / Wanna come on over / Share some pie / the making-up kind /Wave our flag/ Focus on the good in life...'cause I'm never gonna change your mind
Let's not stir the pot/ How 'bout you come over/ Trade some pie/ The humble kind/ Share a smile/ Leave drive you crazy behind...but I'm never gonna change your mind
You roll your eyes / I’m holdin’ my composure / No black or white /Or wrongs or rights / Love is blind / Hope it can bridge our divide...'Cause I'm never gonna change your mind
You roll your eyes / I'm holdin' my composure / (It's) Not black or white / Or wrong or right / Love is blind / Maybe it can be our guide / 'Cause I'm never gonna change your mind
Each night and day / Holdin’ my composure / The words we say / Tear us apart / Focus on / Livin' with love as our guide...But I'm never gonna change your mind
Each night and day / Holdin’ my composure / The words we say / Tear us apart / Prayed today / Hopin' your heart changes with time...
Get outta my face / Drop that gun from your shoulder / Some kids today / Only know afraid / Stop the hate / Before it claims another life...
I was raised/ Not to push the issue / To never judge / Polite company / Hold our tongues / Unless we can see both sides...No, I'm never gonna change your mind
When truth is only smoke and mirrors (verse 4, line 3)
Each night and day / Holdin' my composure / The words we say / Tear us apart / Lord, I pray / Maybe it'll change your heart ...But I'm never gonna change your mind
It's not always black and white / Could argue 'til we're blue in the face / Somewhere between wrong and right / Lives acceptance, truth, and saving grace
Living in these crazy times / Life's too short to argue right from wrong / Although I don't take your side / Right by your side is where I belong
I don't mean to be unkind / Can we both agree to disagree / Darlin' there's no use tryin' / We won't see eye to eye, guaranteed /
It's not always black and white / Type A personality /We've got different views on life / (I'm) Thankful gray is a color I see
Well no, it's not always black and white / Type A personalities / We see the world in a different light /And I'm a little more Type B
You can’t fake that 1st love feeling
You can’t fake that 1st love feeling
The loss that cost the most / was gaining hope
Became a better man / and left the band
Loss that cost the most / didn't leave me broke
Although we swung and missed / it left me rich
There's no denying, she's our child / She's my spitting image with your smile
By Fall, I though my world had turned black / but your plus sign phone call changed all that
You can't fake that 1st love feeling
I gave so much of me to you then / there was no me in me by the end
Our love was a natural disaster / a wildfire, nothing much left after /I lived for you, and you consumed me...
Young love is a natural disaster/ When it burns out not much is left after
Rewinding time, reminding me what I lost...
Time reminds me of the cost of love and loss...
Wonder which town we'd be on now/ If I hadn't lost you in that crash
Wearing nothing but my T-shirt / funny how you never gave it back
Counting quarters in a jukebox / You chose that Marty Robbins track
'cause I've, never met anyone like you
and I'll, share forever and a day...with
and smile, knowing you're my all time high
and touch, only yours drives me wild
and eyes, smiling into mine for life
Girl, the fire we share tonight/ I, couldn't say goodbye... One night would never be enough
This feels too good to be true/Laying side by side....(with you)
Keep this memory until, my last breath of life
Oh, wish this moment could last/now, until the end of time
Oh, wishin' time could stand still/I'm, feeling so alive
Rest your head, on my heart
Trace your lips, with my kiss
Next to you, all else fades
Kissing you slowly, wishin' time could stand still/Making midnight memories (is) the ultimate thrill...Can't believe/God sent me...
Kissing you slowly, wishin' time could stand still/Capture this moment, and, praise God and His will...Someone so rare
I don't want to miss your curves, by closing my eyes/A body like yours is the sweetest surprise
Someone so rare/someone so fine/no one else compares/you're one of a kind
By holy design/shimmering gold/your soul is divine
Someone so rare/someone so fine/you are sacred/one of a kind
Someone so rare, more precious than gold/ Beyond compare, to have and to hold
Pray that you/say I do... (Someone so rare)
Truth be told, (you) broke the mould
Our two hearts beatin' fast, God's answered our prayers/Your one in a million, girl, beyond compare
Your eyes, blue and true, purer than vintage turquoise/Stay in this moment, the rest of our lives
Our two bodies dancing as we answer our prayers/ And I thank God above for someone so rare
The gentle in your eyes/ The tender in your kiss/ I’m burning without a flame/ My heart’s waving a white flag
The gentle in your eyes/ The tender in your kiss/ I’m burning without a flame/ My heart’s waving a white flag
That West Coast surf crashing at our feet/ Come in closer babe, let’s make a little sunset heat
