Story Behind the Song
Motivation - I wanted to start a solo project so I made up a guitar part and found a poem I really liked that I wrote and made those the lyrics. There is a lot of subconscious significance to the lyrics. I didn't realize how much the lyrics symbolize the meaning behind the name Six Wall Embracement until well after I named myself.
Lyrics - Basically just about being lonely, but there is a lot of meaning behind it. It all links to the name Six Wall Embracement.
Time - It didn't take long at all to write however it took very long to decide on a final version. I recorded the song twice on two different sessions. The first time it took about 2 hours to record, but I wasn't happy with it so I recorded it again after changing the key of the song. The second time it took a little longer than 2 hours.
Lyrics
this room grows lonlier,
and all I ever think of is you,
the smile that stretches across you face,
means more to me than you'll ever know,
our world collided with a simple hello,
as I tried to think of what else to say,
to make you see that I needed you,
to be mine and mine only,
my heart lies scattered across the floor,
as I walk I leave pieces of me as reminders,
of what you could mean to me,
if only you looked past the silence I exhibited,
my values and beliefs subside,
as I dream of you eyes.
