Lyrics:
[verse 1]
So I guess this is who I am now,
Come on tell me that it's all in my head
Yeah my God's been dead a while now,
For this stupid fucking wolf on my neck
And he says I gotta live bold or die trying
But I got an addiction that I need help tying
Up like all these loose ends, all these fake friends
Cover me in kerosene and tell me how I'm wrong again
As I sit here and I write these cryptic rhymes
And I toss and I turn throughout the night
And I can't help but wonder when it got this hard…

[chorus]
Well I hope to God I'll find a way to
Show you what I mean.
Hope to God you'll find the truth that,
Still is haunting me,
I can't believe it,
I'm left to my own devices I
Hope to God I'll find a way to
Show you what I see.

[verse 2]
I know that I'm crazy,
I know it's my fault
I know that I'm hazy
I know that it's all, just
Falling down
So quickly that I
Can't lift up the pieces
With all of my might
And I wish I could have the strength
wish I could find it,
Wish I could tell the world
Just to rewind it
But I know better
I know what'll happen
As talking gets harder
We'll fade just like back then
And I Guess I'm a masochist,
I live for the pain
I'd die for a cold heart
And ice in my veins
And in the end,
You'll probably forget
While my head remembers
And I die from regret
And I just wanna sleep today,
Come home, take a sip, and fade away
Let's hope it gets smoother as it goes down
And you wake me up before I drown

[chorus]
Well I hope to God I'll find a way to
Show you what I mean.
Hope to God you'll find the truth that,
Still is haunting me,
I can't believe it,
I'm left to my own devices I
Hope to God I'll find a way to
Show you what I see.

[ender]
I gotta do all that I can,
And I'm gonna walk with them again,
If I can soothe the demons that
Are hiding deep inside us
As I hold onto all of them ,
My grip bloodies with sentiment
Cus I can lose myself inside the
thought I'm not a monster

I like the relaxed atmosphere at the beginning. The vocals are really breathy and conversational, and sit really well in the mix. I also like the lyrics a lot themselves. The instrumentals are pretty minimalistic through the first chorus, though - I think you missed a bit of an opportunity to enhance the texture and creativity of this piece there. I like the melody at 1:14, but the instrument itself is a little cliche. You have a habit of failing to enunciate some of the consonants here - 2:09 sticks out to me as sounding like “appen” instead of “happen,” but there are other examples too. I think that the chorus needs a little more substance and drive that identifies it as the chorus - some drums and secondary melodies could really help there. The coda was really enjoyable, though. I like the theme of the piece a lot. The mixing and mastering is also really well done, btw. Solid work overall! Earned a spot in my favorites, in fact. ;)

8.75/10

Holy fucking shit... this is beyond amazing, man!
