The Thunder That Calms
On days when reality feels like a nightmare
And every word is just irritating noise
I put my headphones on
And let the music carry me
When the song thunders
And the voices shout
The anguish that's in my heart
Slowly goes out
As I start to calm down
I lay there and just think
Is this the only way to relax the nightmare?
Can only the sounds of guitars and drums
Turn the disaster of my surroundings
To just a calm storm?
The beat that scares the nightmare
The sounds of metal stronger than any nightmare
The vocals with the devils soul put in to it
Seem to put mine to rest
No other music, no other sound
Can ever ease my reality such as this
even though that most music can calm
It's still there in the back of my head
Waiting to strike over, and over again
Letting my heart and mind come together
Resonating with the sounds
And the meaning these songs bring
This is the melody
That soothes my demons
This is the music
That is.... Mine....
And every word is just irritating noise
I put my headphones on
And let the music carry me
When the song thunders
And the voices shout
The anguish that's in my heart
Slowly goes out
As I start to calm down
I lay there and just think
Is this the only way to relax the nightmare?
Can only the sounds of guitars and drums
Turn the disaster of my surroundings
To just a calm storm?
The beat that scares the nightmare
The sounds of metal stronger than any nightmare
The vocals with the devils soul put in to it
Seem to put mine to rest
No other music, no other sound
Can ever ease my reality such as this
even though that most music can calm
It's still there in the back of my head
Waiting to strike over, and over again
Letting my heart and mind come together
Resonating with the sounds
And the meaning these songs bring
This is the melody
That soothes my demons
This is the music
That is.... Mine....
