Hello again,
The first incarnation of this song was horrible, ridden with cliches and dragged on and on, there was no end to it. I promptly sat down in front of the computer and began writng, again and came up with this. There is only a faint resemblence to the original song, and as you'll all be able to tell, this one takes a more political stance for those who dont know what I'm writing about. (its an inside thing, but all of my music is subject to interpretation). This is far from the final product, It may drag on because the music drags on, and as the music changes, this song will change. Hope this one is better
Cheers :chug:
Melt the world away
Let the colors fade to black
Let your instincts get the best of you
Say what you have to
Lie if you must to make us happy
But don’t let the world get the best of you
I shouldn’t turn my back
On an untamed enemy
It takes a coward to stab you in the back
Lest say I’m afraid of you
You should be frightened too
Look for words to say
Keep in mind I’m still confused
So don’t use the words I don’t understand
What more is there?
You’ve taken it all away from me
But it’s for a reason I don’t understand
As I pull my head out of my ego
I find that the world has undergone change
it must have happened overnight
Because I didn’t see anything strange
How’s the weather there?
And how does it feel to be the one?
I wish someday I could stand where you did
As I pull my head out of my own world
I see that it’s a much darker place
Although it’s much safer too
I see still you haven’t been replaced
I shouldn’t turn my back
On an untamed enemy
It takes a coward to stab you in the back
Lest say I’m afraid of you
I shouldn’t let you see
My shoulder turned to you
I may have let down my guard to you
But I’m not afraid…anymore
But you should be frightened
Of yourself
Only one
To let this pass
Only one
To make this last
Your world is falling
It’s already begun
This battle may be over
This war is far from won
I shouldn’t turn my back
On an untamed enemy
It takes a coward to stab you in the back
Lest say I’m afraid of you
I shouldn’t let you see
My shoulder turned to you
I may have let down my guard to you
But I’m not afraid…anymore
But you should be frightened
Of yourself
Give up
I’m not your slave anymore
