these Lyrics were post by a guest user in general discussion.

dem - I put some song to it. kinda a Dm,Am, Gm feel to it. Extremly a beautifully written demenstration of feeling. i took one take of what I felt after reading it.

Hope you like.

Against You, Against Me

Watching you sleep
So peaceful, so subdued
Watching you sleepwalk
You wipe your emotions on the wall
You paint your guitar
You straighten the cheshire devil on your lapel
Are you against yourself?
Resting your head against me
I wonder how you can believe in fate
I thought you didn't believe in anything
I guess I thought I knew you
I feel the weight of the world against me, leaning like your head
One day I will need to lean against you
I hope you'll prop me
Look at what I did while you were sleeping
I watched you bite the devil
I smoked all your cigarettes
I fed the blind man and the elephant
I set the angels on fire
Were you watching me in your sleep?
Are your emotions still against me?
It's over now, my darling
You can wake up
I've seen the devil without a grin, but never a grin without the devil

Bloody hell.

there's some stuff here.
What a desolate song. Sad and haunting.
Nicely played and sung and what an interpretation. It's made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.

holdempok - when i first saw these words, i thought that they would be a challenge for someone to get a song wrapped around. i have to say you did an excellent job of interrupting them into a very deep and powerful song.

i would love to put some bass to this if are you looking for some collaboration on this one?
