I checked out your website and I really liked twenty- two. I've been playing it on repeat
I loved your lyrics on the powerful song session. Amazingly, I imagined quite a similar meaning to it before I even scrolled up to read your explanation. Bravo on that. I really appreciated the lyrics. They are very strong I know you said you are open to suggestions and comments but I couldnt find the "Jason Vox Demo" you mentioned... so I am only going by the lyrical content ( which was amazing). I don't know the rhythm of your vocals so I am simply suggesting a few very slight changes, based solely on the rhythm of the spoken word and what would flow better when speaking.
Desperate Words
Line by line another day was written
Scraps of time to pass it all away
The pages stained with ink and tears forgiven
You live more now than ever when you breathed
Six years now… I remember...
Walking away… walking away…
From the shadows of your pain and sorrow
These desperate words are all that remains
These words from another world
These words from another time
From where I should’ve been
These words from another life
These words from beneath your veil
Ringing in my ears, ringing in my ears
(Your voice is all I hear)
Line by line the years before my eyes
You were so beautiful, so full of life
But that flower that swept you far away
Burned you out and burned you down
I know you mentioned another verse that you didnt list. I would love to hear it! Again my suggestions are only based on the lyrics from a poets perspective. I know they can be quite different with the rhythm of a singing voice.
I'd love to hear more on this!

Thanx a lot! And I should apologize... I cann't appreciate your lyrics because it's too hard for me... Russian and english lyrics are very different in structure, idiomas etc. But I believe your texts are good! (some comments say this)
