2nd try for reddits song-a-week community. week 13. theme: reverse

what is reversed? 
some kicks, snares and hats
piano hits
aaaand the backing voice in the chorus. kinda. it's actually sung backwards and I wanted to reverse it for the last chorus (guitar solo) so it sounds "normal" but it didn't really work ^^ so I guess the backing lyrics are written in reverse, thats it. and reversed for the guitar part.

enjoy and like it or not

cheers

I Tried

Trying to catch a glimpse of your smile
Trying to steal another kiss
Trying to hold on for a while
Can’t believe it ends like this

Oh, And I still… try to be strong
And though I still… keep moving onward
And though I still… weep when I’m alone 
I still remember you on a throne 

Looking for a sign from above
That I know you remember me
Nothing could outshine our love
From the sea to shining sea

Oh and I still... try and be strong
And though I still… keep moving onward
And though I still… weep when I’m alone 
I still remember you on a throne

And though I still… try and be strong
And though I still… keep moving onward
And though I still… weep when I’m alone 
I still remember you on a throne
Always remember you upon a throne
Always remember you upon a throne
I’ll always remember you upon a throne

Throne

Treading alone on a mislaid path
Fueled by a primal rage, I seethe
Out of all my desires, right nowÂ 
I want to cut down the next I see
Talking in vicious circles
But I trust in this steel to find my way
Steadying my stare at the distance
I am the hunter seeking prey

My wildest dreams living. Driven. Going. Giving. Give in to me.
My featureless fears are unclear, but here I can feel my presence revered.
My mantra's mixing meanings. Gleaning. Glowing. Seething. Secrets and lies.
My timing's divine. Pelting stones down the line. It's a sign.

Blurry visions, lack of provisions
No progress, successfully messed up the process
Out of the shadows, arose to impose
The sum of my fears, shifting gears, my goal is clear
Take on the beast, before he (it) feasts
Or until he leaves me for dead, shaking my head
Time to focus up, before i get broken up
No more time to take care, it’s time to fight the bear


My violent vision's grinning. My wheels are spinning. Never knew it could catch up to me.
My deepest fears getting clearer, now that I'm here faced with nature severe.
My steel's turned hapless slapstick. Bent on impact, snapped like plastic.
My timing's all wrong, and I'm gone. It's still a sign and the issue's all mine.

Be still now,
there's a new voice in my head
putting stops to all the shots I'm taking.
Forgive my bitter past,
it's coming round no more,
(ever) since I started listening.

Raw muscle bearing down in wooded silence
Pause for more than just the bloody effects, uhh
A lost legend crawling back from canopy to concrete
With new sense of self-control and self-respect, I polarize the populace.
Black, brown or white. It's fight back, lie down, or say goodnight.

Entropy (Out of Time)

Crazy - Jessie Reyez x Patsy Cline (cover)

Choir

I’m armed to the teeth
mercy to the ones who once had nice things to say about me
this conquest isn’t about you
buck up, kid, it’s just business

I extend my pity
to anyone who invested in me
time to pull up the sheet and cover the body
of compliments no longer applicable 

I had a hero once
I cut myself up just to get where he was
now I don’t know where that is, recently
I haven’t looked into it

If there’s forgiveness machines
I’m not plugged into them
If I was so smart, well then I would’ve given
a fair price to give
looking back the past doesn’t rhyme
with too much of anything
so I’ll take anything else

I’m picking my teeth
fat from the feast of the egg on my face that I’ve been forced to eat
this gluttony honestly suits me
feeling my size for once

the wall writing’s for me
signed by the newly-impatient overly welcoming 
time to exit gracefully
why is that always what I’m singing about?

I had a fever once
it broke before I could explain what I’d done
now I don’t know what I said, recently
I can’t bear to look into it 

and if there’s thorns in my paw 
I suppose that makes sense
If my recollections really were 
the lion’s share of events
I would be such a victim of happenstance 
I’ll take anything else

There's a New Voice in my Head
