slow with a strong sound, and no this is not about suicide!
Macabre Mantra, industrial/alternative one man band
Story behind the song
my friend and i recorded this song together.He wrote the guitar part and as soon as he played it the lyrics popped in my head.everything was one or two takes.It was like everything was on our side and the song was meant to be.
Lyrics
i've made myself a man
no one but me
i've made myself a plan
one mind to everything
this is what you've led me to,
i'm on the edge
facing you
goodbye
push me
i'll swim downstream and catch the hook
can't stop this mind from towering
i've thrown away your favorite book
i feel as if i'm drowning
this is what you've led me to,
i'm on the edge
facing you
goodbye
push me
trip and gag to steal the ladder
climbing up and falling down
if reaching top will make you sadder
i'll sit up there and wear a crown
push me
