Silent Walls and Summer Nights

This is my third song I've ever written, so I feel really happy and somewhat as if I've achieved something great. Also, I really appreciate the comments on my last two poems. You guys are awesome, and it's great to feel welcomed. This is something I wrote at night, and it's very short, I'm afraid. It's inspired by feelings of depression and uncertainty, but feel perfectly free to interpret it as you see fit. The "oh's" at the end look really cheap and basic, but they're carrying the rest of the chorus melody, which is hummed. It's sort of a slow, moody song. Again, criticism is desired and encouraged, so if there's something you think would make my work better, by all means speak up. As long as it's politely worded, we're cool. BR Verses: It's late I should be in bed Too many complicated thoughts are running 'round inside my head Lately I've Been preoccupied With morbid thoughts for no good reason I blame my teenage mind Chorus: Will you, stranger Please tell me If this feeling lasts forever Or fades away with the night If you know Please let me 'Cause these walls are silent As the grave this summer night Oh,oh,oh Oh,oh,oh Oh,oh,oh Oh,oh,oh
