First original song I've written on a CBG playing it live at Open Mic Night in Corona, Ca. Low visual quality but you can hear my 3 string

Lyrics:
There's nothing left to do
I can't stay here with you
There's nothing left to say
Can't make you go away

I have been untrue
I've been in love with you
Another in my head
Asleep alone in bed

I can't say that I do
I can't say I love you
I hate to see you cry
Alone inside you die

A single word for two
Take us from me, there's you
Subtract it all away
theres nothing left today

Tomorrows gone awry
I'm never satisfied
I'm filled up with mistakes
So many hearts to break

But dear please tell me true
Theres nothing I won't do
The victims always save
The Heros from the grave

The needle scratches on
I'm stuck on skipping songs
I'm caught inside a trap
And theres no turning back

The only place to go
Will cost me so much more
The only words to say
A heavy price to pay

The sound that echos through
From me it goes to you
And as time seems to stop
The air in bubbles pop

Theres nothing left to do
Theres nothing I won't do
The Hero's never save
The victims from the grave

Thanks guys! Belinda, I actually run the open mic night, I've been doing it for a little over 3 years now so i'm pretty comfortable. Sometimes trying out new stuff though still gives me butterflys in the stomach haha.

That is beautiful.  Reminds me in tone of Neil Young's great song, "Come A Little Bit Closer, hear what I have to say."
