Story Behind the Song
This was the song I wrote to get me out of my extreme mental block. I had been in a rut, and couldn't write anything, and finally came up with an idea with simple chords. I kept the chord progression the same, but changed the chord structure severely. The song itself is about a man who has experience a full life, and now is basically just feeling useless and unimportant.
Lyrics
An old mind, turned hollow
thoughts spilled from deep inside
gone tonight, tomorrow
always a step behind
these old eyes, this blank stare
no longer recognize
these muscles have been there
these ears heard every lie
these hands have held beauty
once raw and dignified
now they can hold nothing
crippled, I've let them die
Chorus:
100 years just slip away
and I remember
everything right to this day
these long decembers
100 years seem to slip away
all behind me
if I live another day
another lost memory
respected and honored
through years of sacrifice
give way to these horrors
this blood runs cold as ice
I've seen it, I've felt it
I've lived it, I've been there
please ask me, I'll tell you
listen, pretend to care
chorus
