Story behind the song
After Nothing was completed and we had proven to ourselves that we were capable of writing a song together, it was tome to see if we could write two songs together. Brian wrote a bass line (though he remembers doing no such thing) that Ryan wrote a guitar part over. This inspired another guitar part, and when the Head returned to this song, a third part emerged. Brian started the lyric train a'rollin' down the tracks, and together we all finished the song.
Alone is special to us for several reasons. First, it proves that we can do more than verse-chorus-verse-chorus writing, but more importantly it proved to us once and for all that we could make music--good music--together. We all have our strengths: Rafael is a brilliant guitarist with a natural instinct for melody; Brian is a talented bass player with an open mind and a general disposition to ignore any given set of "rules"; Adrian is a jack-of-all-trades who can sing powefully, play drums musically, rip on a guitar like no other, and find the music thread for any arrangement; Ryan can pound out a rhythm and makes a valiant attempt to revive the 80's. Together, 33 Heads is an ensemble that works because they form an uncanny balance that can't be denied.
Lyrics
I Crying and screaming I wish I was dreaming But this is the life That faces me Clawing and tearing The pain that i'm bearing I lose myself In my own company Creeping and crawling I'm tripping and falling Slipping and sliding I'm falling away Twisting and bending This pain never ending I think i'm going To end it today II Lately - I'm having these feelings Maybe - I can't be free Failing - To save myself Hating - my misery Lately - the sadness binds me Maybe - my light's burned out Failing - to reach the surface Hating - i'm trapped in doubt Lately- i've become angry Maybe - my time has come Failing - i'm suffocated Hating - my reflection Lately - tomorrow's too late Maybe - tonight's my last Failing - today is too much Hating - i'm falling fast III No one can comfort me My heart has turned to stone I cannot help myself Just leave me alone
