Music is My Soul

I wrote this to be part of a song called “Worlds Going Down in Flames” I never quite got around to really writing the song though. It was intended to be part of a series of song about the end of the world. Note that this is NOT the lyrics to the song All That Remains, although these lyrics were intended to be in the same album.

Who gives a fuck?

no one really cares anymore

Seen too much bloodshed/An’ they’re afraid to thier core

they’re hiding in thier houses

all quiet as mice

and a little paranoid/of the man next door

I/can not believe/how tightly fear clings

In the day it whispers/by night it practically sings

it/looms overhead/pullin’ all the strings

making people think that death waits in the wings

it’s haunting how much we do to help feed the fire

an’ a little disconcerting to think how the entire

world/seems to be unaware of it’s peril

“civil’s” made way for the new kid “feral”

instead of trying to rise up/well, we just sink lower

a boat up a creek with oars/but no rower

you to do something/don’t stand there and glower

and when peace comes knockin’ don’t deny that you know ‘er

cuz if enough people push/something’s gotta give way

if enough people stomp on the ground/things sway

if enough people stand up/and enter the fray

then we might just live to see another day
