Story behind the song
It was the first heavy song I had written. It started out as a poem I had entered in a poetry contest. I would have done good if I had of actually read the rules. The poem was supposed to be about the earth. (tree's, grass, etc...) Damn was I off the topic.
Lyrics
I am quite imagination, I live my life in fascination Overlooking conversations, I am really tryin’. Finally I am realizing, what I really am despising Look at me!!! I see your eyes in, focusing my mind Don’t just leave me hangin’ here, can’t you see my life is near? And I am not the one to fear, it’s the heartbeat in my brain Thinking things won’t go away, it’s getting closer every day If you were smart then you would say, that I am not insane, yeah Maybe just a part of me, the part I don’t want you to see I’m not like everyone you meet, or ever wanna grow to be A crazy kind of person that your parents may have warned ya of Learnin through book’s will keep you safer than what I’m about. Come a little closer, and your reply will be “no, sir” When you see things maybe those were, never to be watched alone If only I had been awake, to see my life, one big mistake An’ I can feel my body, grow to shake, if only I had known So I exit now, or never leave, this is my life, I can’t believe Of what’s out there, of what I breathe, now I’ll leave without a sound. I’m tied to life and I don’t know why, I can’t escape I’m tied to life and I realize, I can’t awake I can’t awake____. Well I’m just a young man, livin’ in my own land, didn’t know my own hand, leadin’’ to a poor man Tryin’ to make a little fame from a no name, torn by my inner deep thoughts, an’ I’ll do, what I can. Don’t cry me a river, I’m a bit of a beginner, but I’ve been there, now I wanna lead ya, I’m a teacher, not a preacher, let me meet ya at the crossroads, but only God knows, where the road goes Waitin’ for the phone calls breakin’ through the locked doors, headin’ to the top floors, Come on in the game you named, livin’ the streets what made me, True to my own, been all alone, you gonna hate me? How ‘bout a life to be livin’ with your eyes in the back of your head, or end up dead, what-cha never said, I’m about pride, I get mine, in the tougher times, you wanna die, sit back cry, wishin’ for another life you’re a little tired, givin’ up inside, never let a stop sign, to bring you to a dead line we’ll be dogs for life we’ll keep tryin’ till we shine, ain’t another mind like mine, leavin behind the tough times, it’ll be alright, green lights, no lie’s, no fight, my life tied tight, chill back get high, that’s right my life, an I’m tied to it.
