Stand Alone
Hey, Just recorded this song with a friend (Cminor) the other day. He's doing the vocals and I (Nyk) have done the background score as well as the backing vocals. This song is all about a guy who's trying to sustain in this world without his love. The lyrics go as follows, please dont forget to vote this work of a 18 year old. :P

Stand Alone

A lost lie, A lost face,
Once we lived, in disgrace.
Not another chance, Not another day,
Everything was meant to be, your way.

I'm standing alone, up at this height,
I still regret those f*****' fights,
I'm not letting go, I still dream on,
I'm standing alone, so still,
but still so strong.

Here I  live, to see another smile,
I'm living this life, this life of denial,
I'm drowning in sorrow, my regrets soaked in pain,
I'm waiting for my life, to turn to another lane.

I'm standing alone, up at this height,
I still regret those f*****' fights,
I'm not letting go, I still dream on,
I'm standing alone, so still,
but still so strong.

re: Stand Alone
this is nice .............i hate 2 upset the happy trail of loving for this song but..........
I agree its v good production    and v good recording but:

AS A SONG

its just 1 riff .............
no contrast ............
the song all hangs round 1 riff
that just strangles u........

needs a middle 8 or something (Better Structure)

sorry but i'm the fish.

Happy trail of loving continuing here - I LOVE this.  I am a complete sucker for this style of piano-based song.  The vocals are amazinginly well suited for the piece as well. 
Re: fishes comments - surprisingly many of the most powerful/emotional pieces of music do focus entirely around one chord progression/riff, maybe with the occasional key change towards the end.  I think simplicity often can be extremley powerful, and in this case it most certainly is.
My only criticism would be during the guitar solo bit; the drums are just a little bit intense...in particular the cymbals.  I like what you're diong...trying to add that extra bit of power to the section, however I think it breaks the mood a bit.
All the same, 5/5 from me for a truly beautiful song,

love it, you've done much with that 'one riff', so to me it's no problem at all,
will listen asap at home on real speakers, for now i listened on laptop, and already liked it much!
must add that if there were a change in the structure it could enhance lots(as fish ment i guess)

wow this is a great song.
There isn't a lot I would change but....
I agree with MaxdB.
A change in structure could enhance this song a lot.
Awesome work though I will add to my play list
