-I'm- Like Soil To Worms by ~HelpImALostCause:iconHelpImALostCause:



(I'm) Like soil to worms

Intro:
Telephone boxes as time machines
Just to find another way to
Drown out the world
To “say no: To this world”

Pre:
This headache won’t go away
Everyday telling me I’m alive, awake
That hours beckon and routine calls,
My involvement with the, meaningless.
They say at 4:00 am, you will die in your sleep
Sometimes after, peeled eyes
I wish it were me.
The one that got the lucky star
That enjoyed the time he had
Left
I was…with this state
This constant relentless life
My condition’s terminal, all I can do-is suppress and wish

Chorus:
Crying into the pouring shower
Just to find another way to
Drown out the world
Copying the copies of copies just for fun
Just to find another way to
Drown out the world
To “say no: To this world”

Pre:
Dim-lit rooms, become my friends
Never are they, ready to play-join in this “game”
So why does everyone?
Every single human…being
Rush around, travel too fast
While I’m left in slow-motion
No hope, to run the race
Give me a reason, then I will bite
A valid one, to wet my lips
Cause I haven’t been biting for years down the stream now
Curl up into a ball and disappear
Away from this relentless life
My condition’s terminal, all I can do is-suppress and wish

Chorus:
Telephone boxes as time machines
Just to find another way to
Drown out the world
Unravelling time with a single look
Just to find another way to
Drown out the world
To “say no: To this world”
What have I become?

Crying into the pouring shower…

Copying the copies of copies just for fun…

Unravelling science with a single look…

Telephone boxes as time machines…

Just to find another way to
Drown out the world
To say no!
What have I become?
A vegetable?
Or just a vector of unhappiness, longing to leave?

Outro:
My mind’s been eaten by worms
There’s nothing left now
Nothing left of me
Please…
Just take…
…take…
me…

I beg…

Author's Comments

I wrote this while listening to some live tracks from Radiohead's "In Rainbows" album-I needed some mild inspiration so I chose them-lol- I don't usually use songs for inspiration but maybe this worked.

DEFINITION:
-Everything's pretty much self-explainitory in this piece, if there's anything you're not sure of just msg me-lol-

MY INTERPRETATION:
"I personally wrote it in mind of a person who's generally sick of routine life, and is unhappy with the position they're in, you know stuck in a quite boring situation (bad job, bad life, every day pretty much the same) and essentially wishes to have and be much more, but due to their situation cannot not esacape from it. Therefore as shown in the chorus it shows the unrealistic things the character ends up doing to try and find some sort of meaning in life. The character himself/herself feels that life has not grasped them properly for a while and is frustarted about the way the world has treated him/her and thus tries to look for a way out"

-lol-

There you go:
PLEASE add any alternative interpretation to this piece
Your opinion on it
What you think of the title
And any improvements you way have.

ALL would be greatly apreciated. Thanx

nicely done and presented. The first thing that sprung to mind was: "YOU NEED A DESCRIPTION OF A PYRAMID IN THERE!" i have no idea why but i thought it might work well or something...anyway can't wait to read more soon!
