[Song? Poem?]

[verse 1]
All your saints desert you
And you have nowhere to turn
Now you're surrounded by the feedback
Watching your dreams as they burn

I'd promise that this will get easier
And the pain will ease with time
He's lost, and your life's gone all wrong
I refuse to fill your head with lies

It may sound crazy
But I believe he misses it, too
Now I wish I had something better,
Something different to say to you

[chorus, 1x]
There's nothing here but feedback
You take a chance to steal my heart again
Sing your pretty song, sweetheart
Distract yourself from the mess we're in

All your friends desert you
And you have nowhere to turn
Now you're surrounded by the feedback
Watching your dreams as they burn

You say your stuck on an island
But you still haven't learned to swim
If we could be together
Maybe things would be better then

[verse 2]
It scares me to think
that you're not next to me
And every time try to I turn away
I still have something else to say

I write you a poem
So you write me a song
But your life is so far away
This has gone all wrong

It's so easy to say that everything's alright, but
You could never hide lies behind pretty eyes
Still, I will never tell you
That this will ever be fine

[chorus, 1x]
There's nothing here but feedback
You take a chance to break my heart again
Sing your pretty song, sweetheart
Distract yourself from the mess we're in

Watch your life desert you
Because you've got nowhere to turn
When you're surrounded by the feedback
And all that's left will burn

You say your stuck on an island
But you still haven't learned to swim
If we could be together
Maybe things would be better then

[verse 3]
If there's nothing here but feeback
I have no other reason to stay
You'll sit alone and write a song
About watching me walk away

But I will not desert you
I'll give you somewhere to turn
We'll be surrounded by the feedback
And watch the lies as they burn

I'll get you off this island
I will help you swim
We'll just be together
And that'll be the end.

    This seems more of a song than a poem. You sound like you really want to help this person and save them maybe? the only complaint i have is the amount of times you say feedback. It could be a positive thing though underlining that the feedback is what is hurting your friend? Im not too sure. I like the last stanza the most it shows how strongly you want to help. 5/5
