Unknown yet - lyric writing feedback

by George Brown IV
(Lincoln, CA, US)

This is my first time writing lyrics and I'm looking for feedback in general to get some kind of idea where i stand and what i should do next. Any help is appreciated. Hope it doesn't suck too bad.

You’re watching him go down
I see you sit back and frown
But there’s no movement from you

What’d you try and do
Could have given him a clue
But there’s nothing left now

What was ever wrong?
Tried to write you a song
One that wasn’t long
But you never listened

Can you even see,
When you stare back at me
Do you really care,
When I’m not there

I will try my best
In case this is a test
Don’t think I’ll ever rest
Till I have you
Smiling in my arms again

But the next thing I know
You want to go
Guess I was slow
Its ok I know where the door is

Suppose I’ll walk away
If you want me gone today
It was all my fault anyway.

I love the line "you're watching him go down" the song is great, but I think subtlty is the key here- changing the first verse to "watching him go down, now you sit back and frown" is much more to the point. Try and be as succinct as you can be! But great job! xox K.A.M
