Story Behind the Song
I've been working on this song for an ungodly amount of time. About a week ago I figured I should finish it before I die of old age and now it's finally here.
The lyrics of Auditory Overload are about our craving for intense volume and how damaging sound can be.
Lyrics
Distorted, grinding, clash of chaos inside your head, now you wish you were dead
Reverb, delay, phase hits you in your face, cracking your skull, pulsing waves put you in your place
Auditory overload,
pushing on your frontal lobes,
high pitched scream, damaging sound,
losing balance now you fall down,
Masochistic operations,
Raising the volume until you blow up the nation,
thrash, smash, put your ears in danger, shatter glass, do what it takes to get that auditory overload
Torn apart your ears will bleed,
Sprawling to the floor diseesed,
Living through the pain you never predicted,
Blasting away everything that you say.
Sound consumes us everyday,
But never did you feel this pain,
Volume increase scratches your brain,
Piercing your skull until your senses are null.
Addicted to this noise I am,
As it courses through my head,
My last words will be unheard,
By myself, my foolish self.
I cant resist,
Tempted to this,
Mind set to blow,
Corruption and pain through this audio.
You cannot escape this dementia of audio,
Theres no way to hide from what follows you everywhere you go,
You like it in moderation but you're past that point now,
It burrows inside your brain as it increases its gain.
Its unlike any other feeling as isn't material,
It's time to be afraid of what you cannot see,
Writhing in agony,
The feedback consumes the life you knew,
You try to block it out but there's not a thing you can do.
I don't need this noise in my head,
Turn it up more until I'm dead,
You never thought you could suffer so,
This source of pain is uncontrollable.
