Bleed Between the Lines

about

A song about creativity as a form of self-therapy and channeling pain in to art in the crazy boss-battle world we're living in today.

lyrics

When my rope gets tightly wound
And the sky seems to be crashing down
When the going's getting tough
I think I've had enough and
Feel so lost I can't be found

Left hook, right hook, headlines sting
All my deepest fears, vibrating
In the shadows threatening to consume me
So I put left foot right to keep on track
But there's so much traffic pushing back
I'm in deadlock
I need release
I merge in to the melody

It's quite a stretch
Hoping for Utopia
Life is a mess
Fate exists to trip you up
What can I say?
Don't always know my way 'til I
Put pen to paper
And I bleed between the lines

Put pen to paper
Bleed between the lines

When I'm overdosing on insane
And my senses cannot sustain
When my throat is closing up
And it's all a bit too much
I find an outlet for the pain

Something from nothing I'll create
With my two bare hands
One blank page
And when the words come crashing in
I am battle-ready
So I just choose my weapon, raise it high
Then I swing it like a Samurai
Cuts right through the noise
My voice fuses to the melody

It's quite a stretch
Hoping for Utopia
Life is a mess
Fate exists to trip you up
What can I say?
Don't always know my way 'til I
Put pen to paper
And I bleed between the lines

Put pen to paper
Bleed between the lines

Ink flows like rain
Over the page
Washing me clean
Surrounding me
With perfect harmony

It's quite a stretch
Hoping for Utopia
Life is a mess
Fate exists to trip you up
What can I say?
Don't always know my way 'til I
Put pen to paper
And I bleed between the lines

Put pen to paper
Bleed between the lines
