The heaviest song yet - biting, yet melodic as always.
progressive alternative rock acoustic solo music
This is me - my life in the form of music. Although my favorite type of music is progressive rock, I also liking writing solo acoustic songs, and have made some attempts at creating a few techno/industrial instrumental songs.
Story behind the song
A friend who takes out all of their aggression on me, and I'm tired of it.
Lyrics
I knew something was off that night I lie awake alone,
I’ve come to sense your discomfort, as if it were my own.
Since I’ve become your punching bag you might as well throw,
Your entire weight at me, to finish the breaking of my bones…
It just keeps on piling up,
Sooner or later it’ll be the end of me…
Being the nice guy that I am, I’ll tell this to you softly,
Seeing as how “nice” is the only thing it seems that you can’t be,
Being a friend means giving back, not just the ugly,
It’d sure be nice to my turn to unload these burning tears…
But you have no vested interest,
But you have no vested interest in me.
If looks could kill I’d be a dead man by now,
But if denigrating could heal, then I’d be immortal somehow,
I think I’ll take my chances, to not once allow,
A person like you close to a person like me, so I don’t drown…
It just keeps on piling up,
Sooner or later it’ll be the end of me…
If I let you go I’m sure you know that you’d fall face first on the ground,
So I’ll let you slowly ease your way so your fall doesn’t make a sound,
If I control my actions I control my fate, so lovely to bring this down,
Because I realize now that you make me sick and I have no interest in…
In your lack of vested interest,
In your lack of vested interest in me.
