wishing for one more tomorrow
silent dreams laced with sorrow
everything is broken beneath the lies
what you stand for i despise
praying for the slightest change
all these emotions we rearrange
everything is broken past your mind
all alone and walking blind
i’m innocent..
this passion burns
deep inside
i’m only along
for the ride
rage it consumes my soul
all these vices taking toll
violence starts to soar
locked behind…
locked behind the door
living for one last miracle
though this world’s grown cynical
everything is broken it’s all true
giving the devil what he’s due
dying for a chance at life
without the pressure of strife
everything is broken a mere fatality
living out this brash reality
i’m innocent..
this passion burns
deep inside
i’m only along
for the ride
rage it consumes my soul
all these vices taking toll
violence starts to soar
locked behind…
locked behind the door

The way you wove through this, highlighting a sense of being dragged along & out of control…whether in your mind or in the world, really weighs heavily. That repetition of being locked in creates a weight that is palpable. Powerful piece, my friend
Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with these lyrics my friend. It’s still one of my favorite pieces, these were lyrics I was proud of, when they got music it was a warmth I can’t explain in my heart. I still sing this forgotten song, just to remember it. The guitar riff is faint memory, there is enough there to remember how I sung it. This is a song, Joey G, would never let me have my own copy of. I’m not going there right now. lol. He pisses me off to this day on certain issues. If I had a copy, I would have shared it proudly. Instead it has a home on some old hard drive somewhere, never to be heard. Sorry, about the tangent. lol. I missed your commentary, you get me stirred up sometimes. lol. Appreciate you.
