Love
#1 of Poetry, Lyrics, and such.
Hello, everybody! While I'm hard at work on the next chapter of Helios Awaken, I figured I might as well leave this here as well. These are the lyrics to the song "Love" from their Psychiatry EP. I figured it would be interesting to write the lyrics to a song I wanted to talk about, so before Chapter 3 got along, I wrote this. Hope you enjoy it!
The song length would probably be around 5-6 minutes, while spanning genres of synth-lead death metal, math-rock/core, and several others in between.
LOVE
The silence said it all
That very frequency
Was all that it took
To shatter my entire being
Your voice now distant
In my heart and memory
Yet I still do my best to
Try and scream back for you
Again and again
I loved you (With all my heart and soul)
So why did you (Leave me all alone, tonight)
CHORUS
Sweet dreams, my love, I'll see you once again
No matter the consequence, I'll reach for the heavens
Pray for me, as I do my best to be a better man
So that I can hold you in my arms again
The sky burns bright in my eyes
Even on the cloudiest of days
All my best intentions are just shallow at best
With emptiness in my heart and eyes
They all knew, as well as I
That the day you died
You took with you into the grave
My last, my remaining sanity
CHORUS x2
All they can see is the empty husk of my body.
While my soul continues diving off building after building (ALL FOR WHAT)
Just to wake up at the bottom, not a scratch on my tear-stained face.
Set the course, soul leaving my body, torn away ascending.
Up, and up to the top. Please just take the time to watch it drop.
Up, and up, and up again. Watch me fall (Watch me fall for you).
(INSTRUMENTAL BREAK)
Press on, stay strong (I won't let you go)
Keep on, Breathe on (I won't let you go)
Press on, stay strong (I won't let you go)
Keep on, Breathe on (I won't let you go)
For you I will.
For you I will.
Press on, stay strong (I won't let you go)
Keep on, Breathe on (I'll never let you go)
I'll never let you go.
I could never let you...
