Description
This is an original song composed, written, recorded and pieced together by myself (guitar/vocals/instrumental electronic percussion layers), reflecting on struggles of lost love and hope on the horizon. The song describes complicated and hopeless heartbreak that brings a person to the lowest point, and must be left behind in order to grasp future happiness.
Lyrics
Fear and hesitation are both my friends and foes. I'd convinced myself my heart was surely closed. Wasted efforts and vulnerability left me shattered, burned and fading for all to see. Chorus: But it's you in the foreground and it's you in my head I'm walking a thin line between my hope and pride it's nice to meet you, could I lay in your arms tonight? Footsteps pace around a cluttered mind; sensing that I'm running out of time. It's crippling to embrace the future ahead when your dreams are tattered, shriveled, empty and dead. But I reach inside, I know I can't give up. Escaping the past, I know I've had enough. Trust again is all I have to do, taking chances will lead me straight to you. Chorus If you'd just show yourself to me, well I'd be everything you need. My soul is caged, you're harboring the key. And open to sun above, our hearts absorbing all the love we need, to set our spirits free. Chorus/outro
