American Idol contestant Thunderstorm Artis performed an original song for his first Hollywood week audition. I had heard him once before (when he sang my favorite Christmas song) and since this is the first time we’ve seen him on this season of American Idol, I’d say he completely rocked it. Here are the lyrics to his original song called “My Last Dying Breath.” Is anyone else so happy he didn’t include the irritating, yet trendy, phrase meet-cute anywhere in the verses?
I saw you crying last night
watched the tears fall like stars from your eyes
You don’t need me to fix it, you just need a minute
someone to be by your side
I see the love that you give
each time I look in the eyes of our kids
I’m always reminded how beautiful life is
and how much this time is a gift
If you ever get the feeling
the feeling you’re falling apart
you can give me the doubts in your head
and I’ll hold all the pain in my chest
and I’ll carry your weight on my shoulders
and I’ll carry it over and over
till there’s nothing
till there’s nothing
till there’s nothing
there’s nothing left
Oh, so give me the doubts in your head
and I’ll hold all the pain in my chest
and I’ll carry your weight on my shoulders
and I’ll carry it over and over
Till there’s nothing
nothing left.
Till my last dying breath.
