Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses

Duality

[Verse]
Steps crack the dark ground breaks
Every echo screams my name
A shadow land no gods can tame

Fingers gripping the lyre tight
Strings hum a mournful fight
The air is thick the day is night

[Chorus]
Orpheus descending fire in his veins
A song for the lost cutting through the chains
Eurydice waiting silent in the rain

[Verse 2]
River of ghosts whispers cold
Eyes like daggers stories told
I sing but the silence holds

Ash falls like snow from the sky
Demons laugh they never cry
I bleed I crawl I still defy

[Prechorus]
I can feel her breath
I can hear her voice

Descent of Orpheus

This is not a song. It's a breakdown. Enjoy the sound of decay.
Thank you for listening.

I've lost my sense, my touch
The art to write my words
Forget my dreams, my hope
They're crashing with a burn
I've lost my soul, my mind
The way I see my life
Forget my time, my fate
I'll never find what's right

This world is so broken
And full of all this shame
There's no sense in hopin'
'Cause nothing's gonna change

I've lost my strength, my will
That falls with every frown
Forget my hope, my pride
Another dream gone down
I've lost my touch, my hold
On every dream in life
Forget my thoughts, my goals
I'll never find what's right

This world is so broken
And full of all this shame
There's no sense in hopin'
'Cause nothing's gonna change

I've lost my sense
My touch
The art to write my words
Forget my dreams
My hope

They're crashing!

Nothing's gonna change!
Nothing's gonna change!

This world is so broken
And full of all this shame
There's no sense in hopin'
'Cause nothing's gonna change
This world is so broken
And full of all this shame
There's no sense in hopin'
'Cause nothing's gonna change

Caption Title

A brutal reckoning—“Stealing Time” exposes the truth behind the mask, refusing to mourn what was lost and demanding accountability.

Song Insight

Stealing Time is not a lament for what’s gone, but a razor-edged anthem for finally seeing someone as they are. There’s no sugarcoating, no nostalgia for a love destroyed by self-inflicted wounds. This song doesn’t plead for redemption—it lays it bare: if you’re ever going to be saved, you’ll have to save yourself, because I’m done carrying your damage. The rain and the rose on the casket aren’t mourning—they’re the final word, marking the end of illusions and the start of owning your own darkness.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Drifting through your life
Trying to find a way to say goodbye
Grifter stealing time
I’m running through your lies

[Build]
The empty space between the lines
Falling to your knees, you cry

[Chorus]
It’s not about the ones you used to hold
It’s about the ones you left behind
All those moments passed you by
Maybe this time there’s nothing to undo
Truth—a life, something to pursue

[Refrain]
God, I hope you do
Something needs saved in you

[Verse 2]
Every promise that you broke
Every secret left untold
All the pain behind your eyes
The hearts you tore
To the ones you used

[Build]
Broken souls haunt your scattered mind
Pieces taken I will never find

[Chorus]
It’s not about the ones you used to hold
It’s about the ones you left behind
All those moments passed you by
Maybe this time there’s nothing to undo
Truth—a life, something to pursue

[Refrain]
God, I hope you do
Something needs saved in you

[Bridge]
Mirrors, silver-plated death
Moments I try but can’t forget
Shadows pulling at what’s owed
Memories drowned by the ones I loved

[Bridge 2]
Sorry for the stones you throw
No matter what, you stay below
Cracked reflections on the floor
Love doesn't live here anymore

[Final Chorus]
It’s not about the ones you used to hold
It’s about the ones you left behind
All those moments passed you by
Maybe this time there’s nothing to undo
Truth—a life, something to pursue
All the pain behind your eyes
The hearts you tore apart inside
All those moments, lost in time
Drift away, erased by a life

[Refrain]
God, I hope you do
Something needs saved in you

[Outro]
Every mistake you called mine
Feel your choices down my spine
Maybe this time you’ll live the life
Maybe it’s the lies that die
Free yourself in time

[Post-Outro]
God, I hope you do
Something needs saved in you

Personal Reflection

I wrote “Stealing Time” as the ten-year mark approached, but not to mourn what could have been. Eight years of marriage ended in chaos and destruction—choices, not fate. This isn’t about hoping for change or wishing things were different. It’s about drawing the line, calling out the darkness, and refusing to shoulder someone else’s demons. There’s pain, sure, but mostly clarity: your story is yours now, and I won’t let it shape me. I see the warning signs clearer than ever. You own your choices, not me.

4Me2BeFree

With “Stealing Time,” 4Me2BeFree channels real scars into cinematic storytelling—no filter, no pity, just raw truth and consequence. Every lyric, every visual, and every drop of rain on the casket is there to show that this isn’t a breakup song—it’s a declaration of freedom from someone else’s self-destruction. This is what 4Me2BeFree does: transforms lived experience into music that doesn’t flinch from the hard parts, making sure the story hits as hard as the truth.
