Blues Style...(www.shookmusic.4t.com) Lyrics, Guitars, Bass and Vocals by: Bill Shook
Blues with an Attitude
. Welcome to my . I'm a songwriter shopping my songs around...hoping to get them published and then recorded by a famous recording/touring Artist.
Story behind the song
If you look at life like it's a mountain...everyone's climbing to the top...most slip and slide but keep climbing...other don't. This song is about Alcoholics and Drug Addicts and their stuggle to climb the mountain. For some the burdens of life are too great and they keep sliding...this song has no happy ending...because for some that's the way it happens.
Lyrics
I've slid into a dark, dark place
I tripped and fell upon my face
My life is spinning out of control
The pain consumes my Tainted Soul
It's easy to let my Demons win
Spend too much time in a bottle of Gin
I'm loosing my grip and I can't hold on
Too old, too tired and too far gone
Strapped in on this Hell Ride
Loosing Ground on a Down Hill Slide
Once inspired and climbing to the top
I slipped a few times but never stopped
Something has changed and I don't know why
Now I don't care if I live or die
Living in Loneliness and Despair
The mountain is harsh, life's not fair
I'm loosing my grip and I can't hold on
Too old, too tired and too far gone
Strapped in on this Hell Ride
Loosing Ground on a Down Hill Slide
I'm looking down at a Hellish Abiss
My Sober Life is something I miss
I scratch and claw to no avail
My ship sank after it set sail
So easy, I'm tempted to let go
Poisoning my mind abd Dying Slow
I've lost my grip and I couldn't hold on
Too old, too tired and too far gone
Strapped in on this Hell Ride
Hitting the Bottom on a Down Hill Slide
