This one's a bit different. For starters the lyrics I wrote aren't from personal experience. It's a song about drug addiction, which I have no experience with, and the people that I know who struggle with it aren't in my life anymore (or have passed away). The point being that I have no real emotional ties to the subject matter. As a result it took a lot of trial and error to make something I liked.
The style of this one is a bit different as well. Didn't want the vocals to be front and center, kind of wanted the singing to blend into the rest of the music. And I think I got a good result for that. Might be biased though because I really like post-rock/ambient music. So I enjoy this one beyond just the creative process.
Genre: Post-Rock/Alternative
Lyrics:
Another day in a world so broke,
Feelin like you been swallowed whole,
The sting in your eyes, tears runnin' dry
A hole in the wall of lies,
There's nowhere left to go,
The neon streets are as good as home,
Waiting in the rain,
For someone else to blame,
Smile on your way down,
That psycho side of you,
Fire in your gaze now,
The embers of your youth,
Wash it all away,
The Junk inside your veins,
High and flying free,
It's the only thing you need.
Oh, it's all you need,
You've got nothing left to say,
Shallow and frail in every way,
You can't break the chain,
The burden of it all remains,
Smile on your way down,
That psycho side of you,
Fire in your gaze now,
The embers of your youth,
Wash it all away,
The Junk inside your veins,
High and flying free,
It's the only thing you need.
Oh, it's all you need,
You're face down in the dirt again,
Red eyed in the wind,
The world that took it all away,
Lost in disarray,
Smile on your way down,
That psycho side of you,
Fire in your gaze now,
The embers of your youth,
Wash it all away,
The Junk inside your veins,
High and flying free,
It's the only thing you need.
Oh, it's all you need,
