I wrote a good portion of music before I started thinking about lyrics.
So then I thought to find lyrics, what does this song make me feel and think about.
Then I started a bunch of lyrical ideas, then finished writing the song, then thought of more lyrical ideas, and then finished putting it all together.
It does have a specific meaning to me, however its meant to be open and hopefully applicable to many things depending on the listener.
Its probably not done yet either as I'm not 100% happy lyrically but its close.
Basement Rockstars and Wal-Mart Professionals
Its weighing on me now
Everything we've lost has now been found
Buts its not the same
These charred remains of bridges
These thoughts that make me livid
Holding back more flames
I wonder how much can we take
Before this cracks in two and breaks
When it all comes crashing down
Will we swim or will we drown?
Its no err
We're now strange
Yes I left you for dead
My only regret is that you made it out alive
I'd rather see us dead, than alive together
In sun or stormy weather
No I won't turn back
And today I'd like to shake
The hands of my worst enemies
And wave goodbye to old friends
Our times come to an end
We've got to raze it up
We've got to raze it up
We've got to raze it up
We've got to raze it up
