Metal song written with my friend Josh Grass
Story behind the song
A song I wrote, when I was feeling the way the lyrics are portrayed
Lyrics
"Uncovering Me"
The story of life
A beginning,
That finds an end
A hope
That becomes permanent
A dream
Felt and shattered
A future,
No longer there
A sadness,
Capsized by fear
(Chorus)
Doubt,
A powerful thought
That tears you apart
Pain?
Not physical
The kind
That rips your mind apart
Stress?
It rips your soul apart
Reality?
Shifts into grey
A cloud, shrouded
With misery
(Chorus over)
The sorrow that took me away
It is now replaced,
Replaced by a hope
A future yet untold
A dream a fortune teller
Could not unfold
The pain I feel
No longed takes hold
A feeling no longer cold
(Repeat Chorus)
At the dawn of tomorrow
I sit,
With hopes to live my life
As I see it fit
Moving forward,
Leaving pain behind
Uncovering the shroud
That life has cast on me
I can finally dream
A new horizon,
A place created by me
