Story behind the song
After graduating high school, I thought about how my future held everything and yet was nothing. That idea provoked this song. The opening line of the chorus (pangs of despised love) is inspired by a line of Shakespeare. Hamlet, I think.
Lyrics
21 days, 21 days from now
i drop the mace
i drop the mace and walk out
one breath left
emotion theft
what is that sound?
i can go three more rounds
pangs of despised love
rain on me
pour down from above
my heart is growing cold
and a cloudy future holds
nothing and everything
a million blank stares
a million blank stares lingering
i see my light
i see my light is fading
no more roses
no more poses
what is that noise?
only my broken joy
pangs of despised love
rain on me
pour down from above
my heart is growing cold
and a cloudy future holds
nothing and everything
