Early Morning Inspiration

So... the scene starts like this... It's 3 am and I'm exhausted. I go outside for a cigarette to slow my mind down, and I'm just struck by the beautiful night around me and had an inner awakening of sorts, and I walked inside and wrote these lyrics, that odds are, I'm going to hate in the morning and think they are lame. But here they are fresh and unfinished. Still need to write a verse 2, but I figure that will come when I wake up here in uh... 3 hours... Nix that, here I am back, just half an hour later adding my verse 2 to it, and I already am starting to hate it because its SOOO cliche... But I think I'll keep it, because its all from the heart.

Finding Solace

Verse 1
It's been a long time
Since I felt this way
Or cared to write a song
In a major key
But some things in life
They change the game
Been waiting for you
To call my name

Chorus
But she sings like an angel
Enraptured by her voice
There's comfort in her eyes
And a reason to rejoice
Dances like a shooting star
Across the sky
Oh there's hurt in her heart
But it's captivated mine

Verse 2
It’s been a long road of struggles
To bring us here
And a longer road ahead
‘Till I’ll find you near
But times like these
I find it worth the fight
Wishing you were here
With me tonight

dude its good. depending especially on what chords your thinking of for it, its also not really cliche, its more sardonic i think thats the right word
