Samuel Nye

I am a simple guy with simple songs about life. All aspects. If you want a light, happy and heart-felt song, you'll find it here. If you want a sad emotional so

Just your average guy who loves to express emotions through song. If you don't like sad songs, listen to my happy songs. Don't like happy songs, listen to my dark songs or my angry songs. I like to think of my music as a sort of psychological experience, and so I try to cover all emotions. If you dont like the first song you hear, all I ask is keep listening. You'll probably find at least one song that you can connect to.

Story behind the song

I eventually got to a point where I looked at my personal life and didn't like what I had become or what IT had become, and it was no one's fault but my own. This song was sort of my wake up to the way I treated people, and helped me see more often when I was repeating my own mistakes. The vocal style was different from my earlier songs because I actually did a lead for the chords first in an instrumental version of the song, and then I started humming it and decided my voice could handle it. 'the words I cannot say' was the first line that popped into my head, and all of the rest of the song was written around it. This version was recorded in Handy Barker's amateur studio, with half a class of drama students watching as I sang the best I could. The extra guitars were dubbed in by hand at my personal studio about a month later. Enjoy.

Lyrics

So hard to say these things that I feel as I watch you walk away.
All of my fears, and all of my dreams,
combine as one and become the source of all of my internal screams.
I am free,
and yet here I drink like a drunk from my own dirty cup of misery.
Fantasy, consuming my thoughts, consuming my dreams.
The only thing that fills me up, is...

Chorus #1:
Pain, the feeling you can't take away,
the words I cannot say, as I watch you walk away.
Those words my mouth won't let free.
The words that I need.
And so i bleed.

Again and again, I drive to the ground and in the passenger seat
there's always a friend. 
Dragging them down, feeding my constant need.
My need to bleed, my need to have others to bleed beside me.
When will this end?
My cup empty, all of your pain gets buried again.
How do i know, that happiness and joy are real
when the only thing I know I can trust is..

Chorus #1
Chorus #2:
Oh I cannot take the echoes of my past mistakes.
No, I'll never be free. 
And so i bleed.
So I bleed.

Chorus #1

Outro:
Oh how I bleed.
