about

When I wrote this song I was toying with the idea of making it about Chris Cornell. Being one of my favorite artists, from one of my favorite bands Soundgarden.

So I wrote the lyrics from his point of view and dealing with his suicide. I took song titles and lyrics from Soundgarden songs to flesh those lyrics out.

lyrics

Sounds and slaves solo waves
And I’ll sing a song for you reminds me of who I
Used to be when in between
This world I kept for me and kept from you

Ohh this burden in my hand
The day I tried to live

It’s too late I’ve made mistakes
And I’m sorry for the things I did to you
I’ll make amends and we’ll be friends
Then I’ll wake up from this nightmare and free me

Ohh this burden in my hand
The day I tried to live and
Of this burden in my hand
The day I tried to live

Ewww this song you’ll notice
Ewww I hope you’ll notice
Ewww this song is hopeless

Of this burden in my hand
The day I tried to live and
Of this burden in my hand
The day I tried to live
