If you were dead would you know it?
A refreshing mix of ultra cheesy pop rock and disturbingly dark social comentary.
I'm a Guitarist/Songwriter/Reluctant singer who plays an odd mix of pop hard rock, blues, and some other stuff, while sometimes veering insanely into anti establishment satiracal metal, techno and/or country. I used to be in a local Boston band called Aesthetik that played all over New England in the mid to late 90's. I also have a degree from the Berklee College of Music in Music Production and Engineering. Learn even more about me at my website.... http://www.ErikZmusic.com
Story behind the song
If you were dead would you know it? Do you ever wonder if maybe the reason life sucks so much is cuz you died at some point and are currently living in hell?
Lyrics
I'm pretty sure I died, I'm just not sure how it happened, or when.....
must a been a sick little joke that was played on me, that never seems to end....
everyday that goes by, seems worse than the before, so we try to recapture it, and then fall
flat on the floor seems no one filled me, no one said I think, they just kept movin on........
it just doesn't add up, something doesn't seem right.
I swear it's funny how subtle this hell can be sometimes, it looks alot like right here.
there's no fire, no brimstone, raining down from above, it's pretty clear, see, what it is.... is
that we have most of the answers, but push them away, you don't need to save your pennies, cuz they'll solve the rainy day.
you get what you, you take all you can, make it all come true,
I don't think this is it.
it just doesn't feel right
I swear
Chorus
So maybe I'm not really dead, It's just I wouldn't really call this being alive
we get so caught, and didn't try to see both sides, of the mirror. cuz
one man's dream, is another mans hell, one mans castle, is the other's jail cell.
yet we stll don't care, we don't see the signs, we just watch it fall
it'll probably never feel right, it'll never be ok.....
I must be
I'm trapped in heaven
please let me out.
this must be the hell that everyone talks about.
I'm trapped in heaven.
or is it hell?
please someone help me, I just can't tell.
