Hi guys,
Here's a song I've been working on for a while, so my ears are now numb. Any advice would be most welcome
It's kind of a stream of consciousness thing, so there are 4 very distinct parts, which were challenging to join together smoothly, so don't be surprised if you suddenly feel like you've skipped into another song
It's a fairly heavy subject, so was a bit of a therapy piece, as I live with a loved one that suffers with drug addiction and mental illness
Still trying to decide if I should make more than one song out of this track, and if I do, how I should split it up
https://soundcloud.com/crystalsuzy/an-endless-train-to-nowhereWe’ve been going round on this burning wheel, for so long
Don’t now how we got here, but I wonder where I went wrong
But maybe, just maybe, it will make me strong
Helpless …helpless
Mary-Jane changed his brain, when he was still young
Then the dragon, singed his soul; and blocked out the sun
Now he’s frozen in crystals; have these drugs won?
Helpless …helpless
I say you need some help…right now
You say that you’re all right…for now
But round and round and round we go
Nothing ever changes; you don’t want to know
It stays the same, on this endless train, to nowhere
It stays the same, on this endless train, to nowhere
As Crystals explode into ice; I’m dragged down into his hell
Psychotic nightmares or evil spells? What’s real, what’s not?
Becomes more fragile with each fix and shot
But he doesn’t care; cause he’s way out there, with translucent eyes
And a broken soul, as he watches life through a tiny hole
I can’t get through the broken glass; I feel so helpless, as he
Starts to crash; I can’t break his fall; he’s like a bouncing ball
So I watch him wither, into something very small
I can’t take it anymore. I just can’t take it anymore
My heart is broken to the core. I can’t take it anymore
You say you wanna leave; you wanna get out, right now
I say you gotta go, you gotta go, somehow
But round and round and round we go
Nothing ever changes; no one ever goes
It stays the same, on this endless train, to nowhere
It stays the same, on this endless train, to nowhere
It’s like a loop machine!
We’ve been going round on this burning wheel, for so long
Don’t now how we got here, but I wonder where I went wrong
But maybe, just maybe, it will make me strong
Ya, maybe, just maybe, it will make me strong
