    Default New Song, No Title

    This is my most recent outing. I wrote this for my friend and me. We've both been presented with the same situation but in different scenarios. So hopefully you like it. I would also like to ask for suggestions on a title. The working title for it is "Damn Skippy" because for the first time ever I haven't been able to come up with one lol. Enjoy!

    Decisions, decisions,
    Confusion coming around,
    My lost identity escapes me,
    A dead end is now found.
    The coming of age is costing
    More than I can bear.
    I guess this is what happens
    When nothing ends up fair.

    How did I stray so far?
    When did I lose my mind?
    These questions beg for answers
    I don’t think I can find.
    I’m not the man I used to be,
    I’m being dragged along
    Into a world that shows no hope,
    A world that now is gone.

    On one hand, I see reprieve
    That will tear me up to shreds
    Until it blows up into fury,
    Pounding through my head.
    On the other, I see a grave,
    Our names scrawled into stone
    As evidence of all that’s lost.
    Such things will break my bones.

    How did I stray so far?
    When did I lose my mind?
    These questions beg for answers
    I don’t think I can find.
    I’m not the man I used to be,
    I’m being dragged along
    Into a world that shows no hope,
    A world that now is gone.

    It’s not enough for me to know
    Exactly what’s at stake.
    I can have everything or nothing
    Based on the choice I make.
    I strive for everything, to keep my solace
    But such things are never real.
    You can’t have one come with the other.
    In prayer I finally kneel.
    Have you ever seen blood in the moonlight? It appears quite black. Have you ever seen spiders crawling on the graves?

    good lyrics dude! song sounds like it could be very 'rock-y? or 'punky'? do you play in a band?

    You're being dragged into a world where you're unsure of many things, and that makes you uncomfortable. You're putting a lot of pressure on yourself to make one choice that could potentially make everything alright. At least, that's what I took from it. So, I suggest Hog Tied or Devil on My Shoulder (to emphasize the war over your choice).
