VERSE

In a time of why
Under a darkened sky
Who cares to mind
About life for a while
I can see you coming
Not so far away
C'mon romance me
Take away my pain

BRIDGE

All the times I chased the shadows on the wall
Listened through your bedroom wall


CHORUS

Destroyed a lover I took them all
Destroyed a lover I took them all



A very mellow song this one with sweet harmonies.
Let me know your thoughts.

A lyric doesn't have to carry a lot of information, but IMHO this one needs a little more.  You have some nice poetic images going on here, but it's not very clear as to what you're writing about.

As the writer, you know what the story is.  The listener doesn't - it's your job to convey that message.

"Destroyed a lover I took them all"  doesn't ring with meaning for me.  

I can decipher a little bit, but overall I don't really understand what you're trying to get across here....
