This song is a powerful and haunting commentary on a society plagued by oppression, injustice, and violence. With vivid imagery and poignant lyrics, it paints a picture of a world where freedom is an illusion, and the marginalized and vulnerable are silenced and exploited. The song's themes of systemic oppression, hopelessness, and despair are woven together with a sense of urgency and moral outrage, creating a sense of unease and discomfort that lingers long after the music fades.


LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
Shadows slither through the street
Whispers of a lost heartbeat
Pain drips in a silent plea
Screams drown in a rogue decree

[Verse 2]
Broken bodies 'neath the sun
Justice a bullet from a gun
Hope crumbles
Cries undone
Freedom lingers for no one

[Chorus]
Invisible chains
Binding tight
Eyes closed
Losing sight
Darkness falls
The wrong feels right
Silent wars in the dead of night

[Verse 3]
Anger burns
The fire spreads
Crimson rivers
Streets turned red
Silent prophets
Words unsaid
Dying truths
The living dead

[Bridge]
Crushed dreams in a rusted cage
Souls lost in a silent rage
Lies crippling each damn page
Justice buried by petty wage

[Chorus]
Invisible chains
Binding tight
Eyes closed
Losing sight
Darkness falls
The wrong feels right
Silent wars in the dead of night

Invisible Chains

Songwriting has been a lifelong passion for me, dating back to elementary school when I first began crafting stories, poems, and eventually lyrics. As a former drummer in various bands, I always relied on others to bring my words to life musically. However, after a long hiatus from drumming, I decided to take the leap and learn to compose music to accompany my lyrics. Through classes and dedication, I've embarked on a new journey, breathing fresh life into old lyrics and penning new ones. You'll find a mix of older and newer works here. Especially for some of the lyrics. 

Music has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories is being completely entranced by 'The Little Drummer Boy' as a very young child. There was something about the rhythm and the melody that just captivated me. I must have played it a thousand times, wearing the record out, and from that moment on, I was hooked. I knew I wanted to be a drummer and to create that magic for others. 

But I was too young then, and of course, I couldn't afford a drum set just yet. So, I turned to writing as a way to express myself. As I mentioned above, I started with stories, then poems, and eventually, lyrics. I found that writing was not only a way to tap into my creativity, but also a way to process my emotions and experiences. 

As I grew older, my love for music only deepened. I realized that music has this incredible power to transport us to different times and places, to evoke emotions and memories that we thought were long forgotten. It's a universal language that can bring people together like nothing else can. 

For me, writing lyrics is a cathartic experience. It's a way for me to tap into my emotions, to process the world around me, and to create something that I hope will resonate with others. And when I hear my words come to life in a song, it's truly magical. It's a feeling that never gets old, and it's what keeps me coming back to music time and time again. 

I love many genres of music and artists of many genres. And if you listen to some of my songs, you will find that I like to make songs of different genres as well as mix different genres into each song. One of my all-time favorite bands is Evanescence, and I have made a lot of songs where I have tried my best to emulate that sound. 

Now, I have recently started experimenting with new sounds. I never heard of glitch beats before I took music classes, and now I'm fascinated with the sound, so I have been experimenting with glitch beats recently. 

I hope you enjoy some of my songs. And thanks so much to everyone who has been listening so far. I truly appreciate it. I welcome constructive feedback to help me grow as an artist, and I appreciate your support. ❤️

BTW if you follow me, I will ALWAYS follow back. If I like your music, I will follow you, but if you don't follow me back within a week or so I will probably unfollow. The same goes for when I see someone listening to my music, I WILL follow, however, if they don't follow me back within a week or so, I'll unfollow, because I'm at my limit of follows and I want to follow back everyone who follows me. Did not know that SoundCloud limits us to following only 2000. 😢
