I like this song a lot.  I like the sophistication of the lyrical meter throughout.  I like how the chorus plays and pays off.  I love the message of the song- seems fresh to me.  I also like the vocals and the production very much - except I don’t like the extra pause between the first verse and chorus, I think it kills the hypnotic vibe.  My fav line in your song is this “Would you like what you see, Would it bring you closer to me” - this is a cool change up from the previous lines abut running away.  This last chorus hints at hope- like the guy will actually get/appreciate all the different and awesome elements of your Girl Heart. Great work!

Beautiful song!,  It’s very honest.  I love the line ” My body, my brain, my love, my insane… . Who is the vocalist?  The production is also outstanding as well.  This is a song that needs to be on the radio.

Alexis,
This song is beautifully written (Hats off to Trevor) and beautifully delivered vocally.The tempo of the song keeps it from being too dark. I really like the lift into the chorus.

My favorite is the 1 line bridge ala Lady A. in “I Need You Now” (Love that song).
The demo is well done.

Great work

Love the vulnerability here. Nice lyrical turns, clever but accessible. Nice work!! (From another CT writer. I’m in Uncasville, via Greater New Haven!)

V1
Too much red wine runnin’ thru my veins
It numbs the pain I’m in
Can I trust what I’m feelin', and believe the words you say
Cause I’ve been here before, high on cloud nine
‘n watched the fairy tale fade away

When I cry, I break, I’m a walkin’ mistake
Yeah, sometimes I feel this way...

CHORUS 1
If I showed you my girl heart
If I opened it all up
Would you like what you see
Or would you just run away from me
Would the things that make me, me
Be the reasons you’d wanna leave
My body, my brain, my love, my insane…
What if I showed you? What if I showed you?
My girl heart

V2
Do you even know what you’re in for
Tears on the bathroom floor
Not some dreamy movie scene, a messed up beautiful thing
You’re all in this time, yeah, you’re really sure
You wouldn’t change me for anything
Oh no...
Watch me fly, so high, I touch the sky
Yeah, sometimes I feel this way...

REPEAT CHORUS 1

Would I be too much or would I never be enough

FINAL CHORUS
If I showed you my girl heart
If I opened it all up
Would you like what you see
Would it bring you closer to me
Would the things that make me, me
Be the reasons you’d never leave
My body, my brain, my love, my insane…
What if I showed you? What if I showed you?
My girl heart
My girl heart...
