about

This song is special, because it was written during one night of the creative process, Nyk was writing the lyrics during the session and in the following days. Right after that, the song was completely forgotten by the band. In a night of the creative process of the album, browsing through his HD, Boll3t found the demo version of this song, and when the band met in Brazil, the guitars and vocals were properly tracked. The bass is the same of the night that the song was born. The vibe of the song has a melancholy and deepness, reaching a grand finale.

lyrics

I wake up in the morning
That’s all I have to do
My dog still laying down
Cause he doesn’t give a damn
The whore is on the TV
That’s all she has to do
The waffles are so tasty
But well, food is just food
And I said: Yeah, I’m so lucky
My job awaits for me
I can hear the silence screaming
I can’t feel the breeze

And I said yeah
It feels I’m going down
It feels like I’m going down
So I said yeah
It feels like I’m going down
It feels like I’m going down
Down

I’m drifting in a bad dream
Or is it reality?
There’s a hollow in my chest
And a pipe in my mouth
When the rope gets tight
You gotta relax
And I ask: Am I lucky?
What I have to do?
Get on my knees and pray
And be a sheep like you?

And I said yeah
It feels I’m going down
It feels I’m going down
And I said yeah
It feels like I’m going down
It feels like I’m going down
Down

I woke up again this morning
I cursed the fact I did
I have to feed the dog again
That useless piece of shit
Hollow
Is all I can feel now
The pipe is deep in my mouth
It never felt so right
And I’m so numb
I know I can’t pull it now
I know I can’t pull it now

I wanna feel it yeah
I wanna feel it going down down down
Down down down down
Down down down down yeah
Going down yeah
Going down yeah
Going down yeah

You say: I’m sick of this
And I’m sick of that
And you’ve been thinking
The answer is death
But I don’t care
So go ahead
We’re stupid monkeys
And no more than that

And there’s no justice in that

And I said yeah
And it feels I’m going down
Just pull the trigger now
