This song is yet another last-minute-throw-something-at-the-wall-to-see-what-sticks-tune. I borrowed a guitar for a gig this coming week and wanted to try to write with it. Then, the guitar inspired the song.
lyrics
Shame on me
For thinking I can have it all
Chains on me
Sweeping the halls
When no one’s around
Breathe like a king
You can barely hear a sound
Dripping in the sink
While I’ve got you here
I’ll hold you in my arms
Closer to my heart
Till I have to give you back
I’d tear down any walls
And break through the other side
If there was a light
Anywhere inside
With eyes that can’t see
It’s impossible to conceive
To unravel and Unwind
There’s very little time
While I’ve got you here
I’ll hold you in my arms
Closer to my heart
Till you have to go home
