(thats me in Joseph's hockey goalie mask painted black^_^)First of all i would like to thank my dearest brother for his little surprise for my studion --
a brand new electric guitar!i was woken up one afternoon (after just an hour of sleep) by my brother who told me to go to the other room quickly. i had no idea what was up and why he'd come home on a Friday knowing that he has work that night. so i did. and when i got there, a huge rhombus (you know what a
rhombus is right?) box was there, and immediately i knew what was inside ^_^ so i didn't get to sleep anymore... naturally what would you do with a new toy?
...so i came up with this song. after i finished the final guitar tracks and got the first mixdown, all my other past "rock" attempts seemed like wussies. although rock really isnt my genre, but i love listening to heavy hardcore stuff sometimes ^_^
it took awhile for me to find the lyrics i want for this song (again, thanks to a lot of my friends for giving me ideas) although im not too satisfied with the syllabication i came up with in the chorus, but anyway i think it works. the message could be abit misleading given the heaviness of how it is sung, so you might think twice on what the message really is (like is it a positive or a negative song.. ^_^)
so enough on the write up.. hope you like it ^_^

all these many years ive known you i see
how many people look up to you and wanna be
like you and do the things you do
but they only know what you show
but i
(chorus)
i already know the darkest secrets you keep
and i know all the demons that you hide so deep
ive seen that shady side
that could ruin all your pride
i already know the darkest secrets you keep
and i know all the demons that you hide so deep
and ive seen the worst althrough
but it doesnt change the way i see you.
(riff)
never change the way
never change the way
the way i see (you)
never change the way
never change the way
the way i see

every single day you face so much
responsibility
i see sometimes you face the real enemy
which isnt anyone else but yourself
fighting your own demons
(chorus)
you...
and it goes
on and on
on and on
and on
you dont have to lie
on and on
on and on
on and on
till the day you die
till the day that you...
(riff)

no matter how far you've gone
and all the evil things youve done
even if you try to run
theres no escape
just like what the books would say
it will all backfire at you someday
(riff)
but when the judgement comes to pass
when all is revealed about your darkest past
and everyone who once looked up to you
turn their backs and fly
i'm still here till
the day you die
on and on and on
and on and on and on
and on
till the day you die
on and on and on
and on and on and on
till the day you die
you die...
(chorus)
