Denials

Song Description

Starting out with an ethereal intro, the vocals kick in at about :55 with guitar that builds into a medium-tempo rock/alternative/electro-folk song with some elements of the great rock bands from the 90s, about the progression of emotion and coping The chorus kicks in at about 2:22 singing: "A tragedy plays on another denial A catalyst for your fire and trial Would you be OK if you knew the way outside of your head?" Great lyrical hooks including "going through the motions leads me blind. Staring at the world with no reply." Includes great guitar work that then feeds into a breakdown with just guitar and vocals at 4:50 with a false ending that then explodes into a smash chorus with all systems full throttle.

Song Length 7:48 Genre Folk - Rock, Rock - Alternative
Tempo Medium (111 - 130)

Lyrics

Verse:

I can't find myself inside myself
Cannot hide my face behind my health
Suffering resides within the hope
Willing not to be the first to know

Whisper at my fears, make them go away
When everything is change, why do we stay the same?
Happiness revolves around a lie
Comfort lies in a place so unkind

Chorus:

A tragedy plays on another denial
A catalyst for your fire and trial
Would you be OK if you knew the way outside of your head?

Verse 2:

Going through the motions leads me blind
Staring at the world with no reply
Happiness unfolds in cycles,
Happiness withdraws in cycles
Withdrawal.

Chorus

Verse 3:

I defy myself inside myself
Cannot hide my face behind my hell
Suffering resides within the hope
Hope I'll never be the last to go

Chorus
