So I've lost another amazing person last week, and instead of wasting time lamenting and being upset, they will shine through me and my art. Today, I bring you lyrics from one of my favorite tracks from Beyond Dishonor's Generations EP; That Sinking Feeling. This song touches on the anxiety and panic that can cripple us in a state of fear.
So pour one out for my brothers Matt V and Matt E, and read ahead and o can only hope my words inspire someone else to go forth into the world and create something magical.
That Sinking Feeling
Remember when your dream meant something, and then you woke up and realized it was all for naught? So plan your next gig, your next adventure, your next orgasm... just so you know you are filling the void between the now and your endless slumber. So smile, you could be dead already... only if you were so lucky. But here you are now forced to exist.
Failure's not an option it's a fucking ultimatum.
There is no other choice, think about it, you didn't even choose to be born.
The panic sets in, the walls of you're psyche come crashing down... just close your eyes, and hope that ends as quickly as it started.
You can't lose control, you never had it to begin with.
We cannot escape ourselves, and I know I alone feel this torment. The reminder this life is not yours to rule, and I know we cannot escape ourselves, I alone feel this torment.
So stop trying, and start living, because since you were born your body has been busy dying. We cannot escape ourselves... The reminder this life is not yours to rule, we cannot escape ourselves, and I alone feel this torment.
