Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
June 2018, debated jumping off a bridge Forgetting all my dreams of ever raising up a kid Rising to the surface were the demons that I hid Emerging from their slumber to dismember all my limbs Ripping off my arms, tearing off my legs Whispers in my ears echoed in my head Devil telling me lies that I'm better off dead The hell I felt inside coursing through my red Riverbed of arteries and veins Parts of me had gone insane The heart in me was lost in pain Hard to see, and hard to breathe, honest I was often drained Caught up in the constant game Of not complaining, in the proper frame of mind Of Thomas Train "I think I can, I think I can" Listen, I don't give a damn I'm slipping down this hill and falling back into the Devil's hands More than willing, Ready for the killing Thoughts of hanging up a belt from the fan that's on the ceiling It was looking more and more appealing So I wrote my final note Put it into lyrics to be spoken by a broken hearted soldier Hurting you can hear it Opened up my soul so the day that it gets played back is a curtain to my spirit Pulling back the blinds so the blind could finally see The captive blinded by the darkness that they'd find inside was me Hidden in the song Written, write where I belonged Not a track to sing along to, but to mourn me when I'm gone Drove myself to Stan's, smoked myself a joint Had I left it up to chance, I might've flipped a coin But I had my mind made up Stayed up and laid the track down, meant to send it out and make my way up Or way down, whichever you prefer Regardless I'd be dead cuz that's what I thought I deserved Recorded every word Then it all became a blur Suddenly unsure I got it off my chest then started moving in reverse Took one take, called it the Good Die Young Double-took and looked again, misunderstood my drum Yes, Ensnared by the devil, kick down and beat Just a cymbal of my pain, never my defeat Tom-orrow is another day, Perc up in my seat Head hi -hats off for all them fighting through the bleak I owe it all to music man, it really saved my life I nearly paid the price on that warm Summer night No receipt for a blind trade made with my demons My life turned for the best when I recorded that evening Put my pain in the song, put the song on the Cloud Now I'm standing here alive, thanking God I'm still around With my sound I've been bound to surround the lost souls, hold them closer than my skin So they know that they've been found Never lose hope
