Not for me
[instrumental introduction]
[verse]
There’s no healing my heart.
no cure for the wounds.
No escaping the hurt.
that you put me through.
[pre chorus]
It’s as if I've been imprisoned for life;
without a chance of parole.
Incarcerated with bad memories
that refuse to let me go.
[chorus]
Life goes on, life goes on
but not for me.
Life goes on, life goes on
but not for me.
[guitar solo]
[verse]
There is no moving on.
I am paralyzed.
I try but I can’t move.
get on with my life.
[pre chorus]
I’m still shackled by feelings I can’t shake.
I can’t break free of these chains.
I lie here in the dark crying alone.
waiting for the light of day.
[chorus]
Life goes on, life goes on
but not for me.
Life goes on, life goes on
but not for me.
[bridge]
Not for my heart, not for my soul;
not from the memories.

Well that's a wail of sadness - full of emotion. Slow ballad works very well for the lyric.
Powerful chorus. You might consider doubling up on the "Not for me" there.
"Not for me" sums up the song nicely, but it's not a title likely to grab attention unfortunately. Not sure what you can do about that.
Would love to hear this sung live in a smoky cafe somewhere!

I think you should change the hook too. It's a powerful chorus, 6/8 time in the verses country waltz feel, interesting
I think words like incarcerated with memories are too clumsy for this delicate song.
Shackled by feelings, can't break free from chains are kinda cliche.
can also tell a guy wrote the lyrics.
You have the framework and a great chorus, I'd be working on the rest. It's worth it good luck0
Howdy, Stranger!
