    (intro)
    Lies...
    Misery...
    Pain...
    Blood flowing
    Sorrow...
    Agony...
    Promises...
    Love Fading
    (.....)
    (chorus)
    I can only hope to turn away
    from all the memories, from all the pain
    i can never forget, and i cannot hate
    so i can only hope to turn away

    the terrible silence of lies between us
    all your promises, shattered, unmade
    you've becom part of me, engraved in my soul, thus
    i can only hope to turn away
    (.....)
    (couplet)
    when your love fades
    the promises unmade
    i want to hate
    but i cannot hate
    i'm still in love
    but you are not
    and it's not enough
    for 'us' to hold
    memories unfold
    flashbacks to times
    when all was allright
    now told in rhymes
    (...)
    (chorus)
    I can only hope to turn away
    from all the memories, from all the pain
    i can never forget, and i cannot hate
    so i can only hope to turn away

    the terrible silence of lies between us
    all your promises, shattered, unmade
    you've becom part of me, engraved in my soul, thus
    i can only hope to turn away
    (.....)
    thinking of your lies
    it pains me inside
    thinking of my life
    makes me want to die
    and all i have..
    is memory...
    of misery...
    and agony...
    you're dead to me!
    (bridge)
    Dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
    just, Dieeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
    go, a-waaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
    leave, meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
    with my mi-se-ryyyyyyyy!
    and your, lieeeeeeeeeeeeees!
    my,own,de-miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiise!
    i'm,torn,a-paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaart!
    iiii cryyyyyyyyyyyyy....
    (chorus)
    I can only hope to turn away
    from all the memories, from all the pain
    i can never forget, and i cannot hate
    so i can only hope to turn away

    the terrible silence of lies between us
    all your promises, shattered, unmade
    you've becom part of me, engraved in my soul, thus
    i can only hope to turn away
    (.....)
    (chorus)
    I can only hope to turn away
    from all the memories, from all the pain
    i can never forget, and i cannot hate
    so i can only hope to turn away

    the terrible silence of lies between us
    all your promises, shattered, unmade
    you've becom part of me, engraved in my soul, thus
    i can only hope to turn away
    (.....)

    No offense, but it seems like you tried too hard to write a song like Linkin Park.

    actually i came up with the chorus and first couplet as seperate poems, and decided they looked well together. and no, i totally wasn't thinking of linkin park when i wrote this song.

    Not to be offensive but this just seems really messy, it's like some parts don't belong and you've jamed them in.

    This is not to be offensive, or anything else, but right off the bat, I can tell you that the intro is kinda wack. And dragging out the words liiiiiikeeee thiiiiss just makes it harder to read. I can understand why you did it, but it threw me off while I was reading it.
    This shows some promise, just rework it so that the parts flow. Right now, the transitions are kind of jarring and abrupt.
