Day 2 - Tuning the Darkness


The title doesn't make sense unless you've seen Dark City, which I watched last night and therefore it was the subject of inspiration for today. So I came up with the first two lines then met up with Matt and sat there for about 3 hours coming up with some stuff then I finished off the rest when I got home (with the help of some random lines Matt had written down for me) but it was easier to do it to music. . .
Verse 1 - I can't remember my past 
I don't know why I am here
there's a life in my hands
and men at the door dressed in black
I have to get out before they get it
chasing me through a city that sleeps

Chorus - Tuning the darkness, changing this city
why don't they notice why do they change
doctor says that I'll be alright
a prick of the needle will return you to the night

Verse 2 - When the city awakens
the men in black disappear
I've been awake for 3 days
and still haven't seen the sun
in an ever changing city 
where the night is never the same

(repeat chorus)

I killed somebody they tell me
I don't believe this is true


kinda dark but so was the movie :P awesome none the less
