So I seem to recall making a post last year while I was on vacation of lyrics I had finished. A quick search through my posts confirmed this. So I decided to do a similar post today. The difference is these are lyrics I am actually using in a song with Lifting Shadows. The guitar parts and bass parts are both completely done for this song (as well as obviously, the lyrics). My style of writing is both deeply personal and somewhat stream of consciousness, which means they are probably both impossible to interpret and not that good. That being said, I’m in the mood to share, so try to enjoy!
“Only As Strong…”
It’s okay to feel betrayed, wasting life away It doesn’t matter how I feel, but what I say You are nothing anymore I lost my controlHow did it come to this? I slept dreaming of your kiss Before you stabbed me for the Lies you told yourself And when did you say? When did you ask?
You forget that the farther you go The darker it gets And that your reach only is As strong as those who submit
I’m never coming back And I may be the loser But not the whore You did that to yourself
And who the fuck are you? I’m drowning in sound Trying to recall the last time I can say I cared
The farther you go The darker it gets Your reach only is as strong As those who submit
