Lyrics in bold. This song was inspired partly by 'The Day I Tried To Live' by Soundgarden, and if you know the song you can probably pick up on the similarities, and imagine it being sung in a similar way. I wanted to write something about my lack of self control... kinda venting my self-frustration, I guess. This is a hard rock/grunge song, for those of you who don't know what my inspiration is, and imagine some of the chorus being shout-sang rather than just sang.
Here I am again
At the end of the day
And the start of the night
Can't get to my bed
Too much to do and say
I can't put up a fight
I may live in the daylight
But my voices in my head rule the night
We always debate
The verdict is the same
Why can't I live out my new name?
So I stay up late
Staring into a screen
Hoping nothing jumps out at me
Maybe it's just fate
This is the worst I've been
When there's no reason to complain
I try to live in the daylight
But my voices come in the night and
We can't help but debate
Who's my new flame
Or if I should seek out fame
So I
Live in the daylight
Try to
Live in the daylight
Yeah I
Live in the daylight
But my voices own the night
Yeah my voices own the night
So that was... interesting, yes? The reason I say 'my voices' instead of 'the voices' is because all the voices are me, just personifications of my feelings and my internal back and forth. Don't worry I'm not hearing voices... most of the time. ;)
