something different
It's just me. Mainly I write songs to remind myself of feelings I have or moments in time. It's a way to capture parts of my life or to remember significant thoughts or epiphanies I've had.
I'm often curious whether or not other people would feel remotely close to what my songs actually try to portray. Guess I'll never know just like you can never really know what you look like through someone elses eyes.
Story behind the song
This song is inspire by the book "Ishmael" written by Daniel Quinn. If you haven't read it, you should.
Lyrics
I feel it too -
the same as you, an empty void, the need for more.
something that speaks true -
the feeling, somethings out of place, like maybe we don't belong.
our state of grace -
has been misplaced, and we've felt it all, felt it all along.
I feel it too -
the same as you, we have gone, gone astray...
inspire awareness,
inspire change,
inspire the key to save us from our rusty cage.
the circle of life -
is based on life, and we all, are lifeforms too.
somehow we think -
that we're above, we're exempt from, it's simple rules.
the silent whispers of a culture -
pent against, our very source, the very earth.
telling us that this is it -
that this is all, this is all, all we're worth...
inspire awareness,
inspire change,
inspire the masses to change before it's too late.
we're the trailblazers of -
the self aware, but only the, the first to reach.
continuing on the path -
that we're on, we'll surely be, surely be the last.
stand outside the circle -
for too long, well you can guess, what'll come to pass.
when we're so sure -
that this is it, and we're the, the blessed fruit...
inspire awareness,
inspire change,
inspire the key to save us from our rusty cage.
inspire the process,
inspire the way,
inspire our children to inspire the same.
inspire awareness,
inspire change,
inspire the masses before it's too late.
