Sound about a crazy ex who pulls off a murder-suicide using poison or drugs. The chorus is his dying brain trying to make sense of what is happening.

Acoustic Rock to Hard Rock and plenty in between.
Five Years Solitary is a one man project for now. Its something that I do to stay sharp in between the Army and family. I have hopes of putting a band together so I am always writing and recording songs.

Story behind the song
I had a good idea for lyrics about a woman who kills her husband and then herself with poison or drugs after they break up.
Lyrics
You love me and it hurts I stab you with my words We don't know what we're worth And we're both left screaming Way, way down inside It's all over but the crying Down in my mind I'm fighting But it's lost all meaning Forward, we deny It's alright we know we're lying Inside we know we're dying And we're both left bleeding Wake me up Wake me up [Chorus] Ashes to ashes Someone tell me what's for real Dust to dust I can't bear to feel Hear me screaming It all seems so surreal Nothing lasts I never knew what was real You tell me that I'm cursed I can't tell what is worse Your hunger or my thirst Is my heart still beating? Lean into the trying It's alright now we're both dying Why do you look so frightened? Now it's time for sleeping Wake me up Wake me up [Chorus 2] Ashes to ashes Tell me what's for real Dust to dust I never knew how to feel Hear me screaming It all seems so surreal Nothing lasts I don't know what is real Ashes to ashes Someone tell me what to feel Dust to dust I never know what is real Hear me screaming It all seems so surreal Nothing lasts I don't know how to tell what's real It's time to let it go It's time to let me go It's time I let you go It's time for us to go Lay your head down on the pillow It's alright now I'm here with you Doesn't matter what we've been through Time to let it go [Chorus 3] Ashes to ashes Someone tell me what is real Dust to dust I can't bear to feel Hear me screaming It all seems so surreal Nothing ever lasts I never knew what was real
