"this life you lead is perilous, your hate for me is beyond the two of us"

|Drop Dead| |What These Words Mean|

Genre: Post-hardcore, electronic, emo
Label: Self-released
Writer: Alex Ward
Producer: Alex Ward

What Alex Says

Again an acoustic based song which is really personal to me. The song was actually wrote not long ago, it was the last addition to the record. Its just basically detailing the aspects of my personal life really, dealing with a relationship which was holding me down and how much i wanted to help revive it, i couldn't. Its really dark and its got a real firm acoustic strum sound to it which holds the backbeat of it really well. Again it doesn't have too much screams but enough to keep it real and raw. There are going to be assumptions and guesses as to who the lyrics are about, but im not going to say because then.. what makes it so personal and mysterious?

The Music

Its an acoustic based song with minimal screaming vocals. Kept clean throughout where Alex provides strong clean vocals where you can sense the rawness on his voice. Alex sings softly through the first verses with a whispering scream at the end before it provides a big bang as drums kick in to help the song kick start. The song is ultimately about trying to change and how his love life sucks, even though he can't stop thinking about this girl.

Lyrics

Verses with clean vocals
Verses screamed
Chorus with clean vocals


Dark days
Long stays
You say
Go away
I say
Avoid clichés
Don’t stray
Long delay
Mouths dry
Mind sways
Don’t replay
Ill obey
Make Way
Ill pay
Slip away
Until today

(Listen what these words mean)

So please tell me, baby
Please tell me, tell me
You’ll stay
Please tell me, tell me
You wont go away


This life you lead is perilous, your hate for me is beyond the two of us
So lift your head, come back to me, let me show you the way to bed
The picture ive drawn, could set you free now, don’t tell me your gone


So please tell me, baby
Please tell me, tell me
You won’t quit
Please tell me, tell me
We won’t split


I will try forever, this could mean anything, ill do whatever
We could be something, let us evolve more, much more than a fling
Your the truest colour, without you my life’s never been duller


Dark days
Long stays
You say
Go away
I say
Avoid clichés
Don’t stray
Long delay
Mouths dry
Mind sways
Don’t replay
Ill obey
Make Way
Ill pay
Slip away
Until today

(I promise ill try come clean)

So please tell me, baby
Please tell me, tell me
You wont be shy
Please tell me, tell me


Im not a bad guy
I would go through thick and thin, just to once more feel your skin
I know that ive been a fucking idiot, thats been hard for me to admit
So take my heart back to you, take it from under my tattoo


So please tell me, baby
Please tell me, tell me

I will feel
Please tell me, tell me
This is the end of our ordeal



Sounds Like


Final Thought

don't let anyone drag you down
