Story behind the song
The music for this song was taken from a track made by The Ebola Projekt. I discovered him on www.Looperman.com, and I very much liked his style of music. This was my first attempt to collaborate with him and try to create some lyrics and vocals that could compliment his style. It didn't turn out anything like I had imagined a project using one of his songs would, but considering the time I put into it, it only made sense to share it. He has created an alternate song, with different music, that uses this vocal track. Hopefully he will post that one too. Here are some of his links. I hope you will take a moment to check out some of the music he makes:

These lyrics are based on my personal experiences with people who have developed a long term dependency on alcohol. It is meant as a metaphoric expression of the private thoughts and emotions that I imagine might plague someone with a serious drug or alcohol addiction. It is my theoretical vision of a mental scenario that escalates out of control. I certainly do not condone drug or alcohol abuse, and definitely not suicide.
Lyrics
Sweet spirit
move quick
help me be alone
tell me I'm not sick
remind me who was always in control
Please spirit work your magic fast
I fear the night is growing cold
don't you start mentioning the past
or telling me I'm old
be kind with what you say
I'm paying you for comforting
soon you will abandon me
like I've abandoned everything
when I wake in pain
please call my name
Put your poison arms around me
blur my painful thoughts again
hide the hate that you create
please pretend to be my friend
drown my brain and make it numb
I'll pay you with humiliation
take it sparingly
as you can see
pride seldom visits me
it's alright
because tonight
it's who you'll be
I am your whore
I recognize myself no more
I won't survive
I'm too weak inside to revive
always lurking by my side
my only working place to hide
you were always in control
now you can take this life you stole
