I CAME THE FIRST BEAT DROP I'M SORRY I WASN'T PREPARED

This is for my friends who put needles in their veins

Absolutely enjoy listening to this song. I love the meaning behind it too.

I have spent my life chasing things that have only brought me pain, in the end when I'm dead, hope it was for something!

LYRICS:
You better salt the wound
Lock me up and throw away the key
I’m moving down a path of self destruction
I’ve come to realise that i’m not worth fixing
And now i’m past the point any return

No one can save me now

I blame myself 
For all the hate that came to be
“Tough love” was another reason to beat me
I hate myself
For trying to believe
You’d come around and make some time to fix me

I can feel myself giving into hate again
Just load the gun
Cock the hammer and

Pull the fucking trigger
Paint the walls with red
Ignorance is bliss
But I just can’t seem to get enough of it
Burn everything
Just cast me aside
I’m just another victim
Of a shattered mind

Lock me away
Throw away the key
In the absence of you
I learned to hate everything about 

Me

BLOW OUT MY BRAINS



Salt The Wound

Violent Nature

This was another song I wrote during those same emotionally turbulent high school years in the mid-1980s. If "Breakin' My Heart" was about the immediate shock of betrayal, "Shattered Illusions" dug deeper into the aftermath - that hollow feeling when you realize everything you believed about someone was built on lies.

The opening line "Midnight shadows, a phone that won't ring" perfectly captured those sleepless nights, waiting for someone who was never going to call. I remember writing that verse thinking about how naive I'd been, how I'd "built castles on empty words." The metaphor felt so real to me then - all those promises and dreams just crumbling down.

What I'm proud of in this song is the pre-chorus structure. Adding that extra emotional build before hitting the chorus made the impact stronger. "Shattering my world" felt like the perfect phrase to describe how completely someone could destroy your sense of reality when you're seventeen and think you know everything about love.

The bridge represents growth - moving from victim to survivor. "I'm done with your lies, done with the pain" shows that progression from hurt to empowerment that I was learning to navigate as a teenager. The outro ties it all together with "Your love was fiction, but I'll rise from this fall" - probably the most mature line I wrote at that age.

Like my other lyrics from that time, this sat dormant for decades until AI technology gave me the opportunity to finally hear these words with music. There's something magical about bringing teenage angst full circle with today's creative tools. The song now has that dramatic, emotional sound that matches the intensity I felt when I first wrote these words.
