I wrote this song earlier this year, and I've been debating whether or not to post it. I really love the feel and atmosphere this song creates, but I worry about the message it sends.
This song was originally meant to explore a dark place (specifically in Rainbow Dash) and it got dark. I like to think there's some hope in the song, but I'm not sure. I also wanted this song to feel like a whirlpool the drags you back in every time you try to escape.
Nothing that I do
Nothing that I've tried
Can take the pain away
Can quell the pain I hide
I'm tired of falling short
Of ever-failing pride
I think it's time to leave
This fallen life behind
Chorus
I've thought of this before
Of falling through the sky
And never pulling up
To bid this world goodbye
No one cares at all
Nothing matters now
Time to take the fall
Time to take the fall
No one cares at all
Nothing matters now
Time to take the fall
Time to take the fall
Verse
I'm finally giving up
I'll rest this weary mind
Into the dark abyss
Of emptiness I'll fly
I've nothing left to lose
And nothing left to hide
There's nothing left gain
Remaining in this life
Chorus
I've thought of this before
Of falling through the sky
And never pulling up
To bid this world goodbye
No one cares at all
Nothing matters now
Time to take the fall
Time to take the fall
No one cares at all
Nothing matters now
Time to take the fall
Time to take the fall
