Drusilla Online - Winter Mirror (Ed's V&S)
melodic rocker with classic rock vocal line, home-made amateur demo recording (music recorded in 2005, vocals recorded in 2013)
online project of mainly singers collaborating with me (Andy Jakesch) on my (old) songs, to finally bring them to life after all those years ...
Story behind the song
As part of my internet collaboration project "Drusilla Online" for hobby musicians, I've come to work with classic rock singer Edward B. Millican III on this song. Originally called "Violence & Silence" with different original lyrics, Ed opted to write his own lyrics and vocal line from scratch. The music is still from the original home-made demo recording in 2005 and wasn't really intended for public display, but ... here it is anyway.
Vocals: Edward B. Millican III

Lyrics
I always tried to escape
a life so plain and mundane
Knew this could not be my fate
Grab it all before it's too late
So I clawed my way to the top
of the food chain
Never knew success could rot
the fabric of your dreams away
WINTER ON A MIRROR
NOW YOU HAVE NO FEAR
REALITY'S UNCLEAR
DROWNING IN A LIFE OF TEARS
Plunged into decadence,
using little common sense
Everything at my finger tips
except discipline and happiness
The snow fell before the Fall,
'fore Autumns' paint changed it all
Descending on reflective glass
Competing with dreams of Midas
WINTER ON A MIRROR
PARANOIA FEAR
REALITY'S UNCLEAR
DROWNING IN A LIFE OF TEARS
Sniff my mistress, snort shackles and chains
1st time is bliss, then feel the reins
WINTER ON A MIRROR
NOW YOU'RE FILLED WITH FEAR
REALITY'S UNCLEAR
DROWNING IN A LIFE OF TEARS
Punishment severe with roulette on the Winter Mirror...
Ohhh Ohh Oh!
...when you put the straw up to your nose and pull the trigger
