Just wrote this one. The melody was playing in my head over and over again. So I decided to make good use of it and here's the result :) But I didn't bother to play it on piano or guitar. The verse is sung quite fast like half rap half melody. The pre-chorus too. The chorus is full singing. :D
They’re a couple on 3 months dating on Facebook
Not even a second willing to take a close up look
They’ve been how many dates
None of them ever late
I’d be surprised even if they had nothing to say
He works part time at a coffee shop
Serving the high class peeps
While she’s studying being at the top
Never a moment to weep
You could say that he’s never the perfect guy
Being the middle class guy to ever try
To make something last
From something he can’t interact with
What makes him think that it can gain him shit
And her?
She never can be the perfect girl, for anyone
Having a collection of toothpicks, damn that’s sad, because she only has one
And being the low class girl to ever wear high heels
You could give her a diamond ring and she won’t know how to feel
But that’s life,
Nothing ain’t ever perfect
It’s the simple things that can make someone imperfectly perfect
You give me a leaf
I’d turn it into a tree or two
You give me a chance
I’d be the only one for you
All the reasons that they say we ain’t good enough
They say that we ain’t the guy who’s perfectly buff
So say that you want the perfect guy
I say that what you’re saying is just a lie
So tell me,
Yeah tell them
Who’s perfect? (Ooh ooh)
So admit it
Don’t deny it
No one is
No one is
Yeah yeah..
No one is (x3)

Go To Sleep
Written by: Devon Chew
Date Written: God knows when..
Duration: 10 minutes plus
Go to sleep C, G, Am, F
Rest your head
Into my arms you can fall deep, into
Listen now
As I sing
Close your eyes and start your dreaming
Don't let the darkness fear you Em, Am
In my eyes you can look into
Leaning now C, G, Am, F
Into the breeze
Hear my lullaby I will sing...
Dreaming now into the night C, G, Am, F
Going dark I will not lose sight
Holding you is just the start
Keep holding me close to your heart
And if it's my lullaby you want Am, F
Then this is my special one C
...
Written as a lullaby probably a year back. Played it on piano.

Your Test, My Failure
Written by: Devon Chew
Date Written: 13 November 2010 (12.00am)
Duration: 6 minutes
Lord you lift me up
And you brought me down
Made me go far
Showed me who You really are
And though the distance
In finding your light
You never left me alone
Through all the thorns
There was your path
And through the dark storm
There was your hand
Creating the way
Moving the waves
Giving me space to fall into your arms
But here I am
Calling in the night
Wishing I never made this mistake
You gave me a chance
But I threw it away
And now all I need is You...
I need your faith
I need your hope
And everything you can give from heaven above
My missing heart
Heal me with yours
Because all I need is you
And only you..
I know I failed to see you
From the very start
But You always seem to show me where you are
And I know I'm weak
I really am..
You always let me face the darkness on my own
Because you know
That I will fall
And you will catch me
When I call out
[Repeat Chorus]
Chords:
Capo 1st
C, G, Am, F
C, G, Am, F, G

I wanna be your teddy bear so freaking bad
Let you hug and hold me when you're sad
I wanna be on the cover of your comfy bed
Smiling when you need a friend to smile with..
Oh every time you close your eyes
I'll be there right by your side
A lullaby every night all right
I swear
The world better prepare
For when I'm your teddy bear
LOL
