Story Behind the Song
It was during the early ninties that I wrote this cut. The lyrics came one night while laying on a cot in the institution that I was incarcerated. I could hear in my head all the instruments and vocals as I do with all my songs. It was not until years later that I was able to put it all together and record it. I used Cakewalk Sonar 2.2, an acoustic guitar and mic as my tools and the rest is done with soundfonts,midi and DXI effects. It took about four hours to complete from start to finish.
Lyrics
1.)Beyond this world of sanity,
this is where I hide.
lost inside where I'm not free,
emptiness presides.
The world goes on just like a dream.
Reality of life unseen.
I stay in constant battle,
With the demons in control.
2.)Constant state of paranoid,
peeking through the blinds.
Ghostly white my skin becomes.
Darkness my sunshine.
Everday the voices scream.
Demonic eyes they watch unseen.
I scream out to the heavens,
as I lose complete control.
Chorus: Given up on love and laughter,
these things will not please.
Only hate and mad desires,
Make up my disease.
I cant stand the pressure,
undenying pain.
Burning up with madness,
driving me insane.
All day long I pace and mumble,
Hatred in my eyes.
Waiting for them to come get me
whispering thier lies.
Silence would be golden.
But they will not flee.
A million screaming voices,
my mind is never free.
3.)Beyond this world of sanity,
now my time has come.
Breathe my last breath one more time
darkness finally won.
Never free, they've given none.
So goodbye, to everyone.
As I pull the trigger,
releasing my soul free.
