ForeverGrasping

Progressive finger-style guitar, with emotional melodies and raw, honest lyrics.

I invite you to amble through my world of raw, emotional and honest song writing. I hope it might strike a chord in you and be a little more like a flower among the thorns of unsigned amateurs here on SoundClick. Though I indeed am a unsigned amateur myself.

Lyrics

It is hard for the two of us to co-exist
In this little room, you've always been biggest
And your vague temptations linger in me like a bad emotion

I won't play my rock music when my mama's in the room
likewise while you are here I can't do the spiritual things I want to

When the flesh lust against the spirit and the spirit against the flesh
we don't do what we wish, Paul said this
But he also said to kill it with its passions and desires
speaking of a genuine end, But the only end I find within
Is a momentary sin, by appeasing and giving in
To its temptations, which is not an end at all

The passions and desires of the flesh
Are like a powerful, weighty, mighty presence
In the room at all time and it affects how I feel
What I can do and what I am will to

I know you are there and I can't be at ease until you are gone
Just like when someone is in my house
I am not comfortable going in to a corner and writing myself a song
I am to conscientious

I want to get on with my life
But I don't know how while you are here
Oh that I could find how to kill you
So I once again could be alive

You always say "Give me what I want and i'll leave"
So I do, but you come back in two
weeks
And then you say "give me what I want and i'll leave
So I do, but you come back in two
weeks
But it is this or you will not leave
Which is not an end at all
