I was going for a 90s pop-rock vibe, a song about wishing your BFF was dating someone... better...
Verse 1
You’re a silly girl, to love a ghost
He disappears but it hurts the most
When he decides to come back around
He drives u mad without a sound
I wish your heart could be rational
And let you love someone good for you
Hes a real bad man nothing but trouble
But there’s nothing I can do
Chorus
He’s a real bad man, he’s a real bad…
Verse 2
And you’re a lonely girl, with an open heart
turning forgiveness into an art
You took him back every time he lied
You wouldn’t listen, tho I tried
You may hear all of his bullshit
And say you’ve finally had enough of it
But he comes back with his trickery
And You forgave every injury
I wish your heart could be rational
And let you love someone good for you
Hes a real bad man nothing but trouble
But there’s nothing I can do
Chorus
he’s a real bad man, he’s a real bad
He’s a real bad, he’s a real bad man
Bridge
I wish you could see yourself
The same way that we all do
Then he couldn’t steal your smile
Go back to the happy girl
I know that’s the real you
That We haven’t seen in a while.

Great take on a very real and common problem for some. Really liked the vocals and the doubling up Very nice to listen too.

Oh too familiar. Oh too relatable. I like the juxtaposition of this one and then the one you wrote on v-day itself

I really appreciate the sentiment this song expresses. Sadly, it’s very relatable! I think a lot of us have that one friend.

Great vibe sets the mood. Great topic for a song, I've been there with my bff. Where does she find them? Great structure and rhyme scheme. I love that chorus, and those harmonies are great. The bridge takes me to some scenes in Sex in the City. Awesome job!

You definitely nailed that 90s minimalist guitar pop aesthetic. Your lead vocals sound really nice, especially given that they seem to be mostly unprocessed. I especially like the backing vocals at the end. Great listen!

I like the vibe on this. The doubled vocals work really well. Good song.
