Original Song
by Phil Dutton & Les Corlett

Lyrics

It took me an age to lift myself,
From the deep pit of despair.
It took me an age to forgive myself,
As if anybody cared.

I showed myself to the world,
They saw through all my lies.
If they really want to know the truth,
Look deep into my eyes.

The pain I felt came with a cost,
One I can now reveal.
I tried to hide how deep I sank,
And how I couldn't tell what was real.

Friends tried their best to break me free,
From the prison I had built.
The walls were from a promise made,
And the bars came from my guilt.

I prayed for my salvation,
I prayed till the light grew dark.
I struggled with the demons,
That burnt and left their mark.

10 years gone I'm free at last,
And my days are running out.
But I'm still too scared to live my life,
So I pour my feelings out.

The pain I felt came with a cost,
One I can now reveal.
I tried to hide how deep I sank,
And how I couldn't tell what was real.

Friends tried their best to break me free,
From the prison I had built.
The walls were from a promise made,
And the bars came from my guilt.

IT TOOK AN AGE

All links now active... 🎵 Original Music from Wirral, UK | Phil Dutton & Les Corlett AKA The DC Sound Project

The DC Sound Project. Eight albums deep and still going strong. It usually starts with a good old-fashioned jam session, then somehow ends in a coffee-fuelled recording marathon. We write songs about love, politics, heartbreak, and those occasional “what the hell is wrong with the world?” moments, all brewed fresh on the Wirral. Press play… it’s music therapy with better side effects!

We’re an independent duo creating everything from raw folk ballads to gritty blues-rock. Every video is carefully crafted with free footage and, sometimes, AI-generated visuals to tell the story behind the song.
