day 21 of inktober: CHAINS

Song Title: The Weight of Expectations (Section I: Chains)


disclaimer: Vocals were a bit rushed, so they are far from perfect. I plan on redoing all vocals and re-mastering all the songs at the end of the month.


lyrics:


So help me.

Why can't I

Just let me be?

These chains are heavy!


Stuck by this fence!

With this iron, intense!

Cannot think straight!

Nothing equates!


Down in the dirt, chained like a dog

With my malleable mind that can't see through the fog

I beg for a time where I could see my desires

Come to fruition, but they're hard to acquire

Observing others, some have what they want

The rest do not, they feel left in the dumps

Am I in the middle? Or is there a side?

These questions kill me! So just let me hide!


Behind this fence!

With this iron, intense!

No, I cannot think straight!

And nothing equates!


So you think that 'cause you can't see the chains

That they do not exist? Is that really your way?

It's not just me, you're locked up too

But you have some pleasure. You know that you do.

A colleague to talk to, a pet that you walk

These are just two things I have yet to unlock

But I first need a key for this burden

It does not exist, I am certain.


So be by this fence!

With this iron, intense!

No, I cannot think straight!

Nothing equates!
