Story Behind the Song
Well, I basically say down one night and was talking to my friend mark dale and i just started playing and singing and it was late so mark played drums with his drum seat cusion rather than his drums and I liked the song and recorded it independantly. I think the song is about a teenager dying and comptemplting life and al the stuff that goes through it, I recorded the song at three in the morning on a tuesday, it took a few takes because I'm tierd as all hell and i can't even remember my own lyrics. The quality is horrible so use your imagination.
enjoy,
love mike.
Lyrics
Say a prayer for me my friend, I've gone away.
Hold my memories in your hand.
Remember who I was not who I am,
Soon I'll be walking among the fields of heaven.
They say life is a trip, They say life is short,
They say life is will pass you by if your not alert,
I dreamed of growing old, I thought life was my friend,
But as quickly as life begun, Life's about to end...
Lying on a bed of nails, waiting for the culmination,
Of the seventeen longs years of concentration,
So many things I should have done, so many things I could have been,
Soon I'll be walking among the fields of heaven.
Falling in and out of dreams, separate reality,
please, Help me to my feet, I'm afraid I cannot,
Breath, I cannot see, Where did everyone,
Go, Don't leave me all alone...
I remember it all now,
How I simply faded away...
Life eluded me somehow,
I cannot help but be afraid,
cannot help but be afraid...
