lyrics

Where, where have you run off to?
You can’t remember anything I say to you
All you live is a delusion
It takes you to a place where I cannot get through.

You had so much to live for everyday
But you threw it all away
And left this demon in your place
Hollow-hearted, strung out and you’ve lost your state of grace.

You are standing right beside me
But a million miles of blackness stands between
You think that poison will sustain you
You can’t seem to find another way in which to go…

You had so much to live for everyday
Now chemically decayed
And left this demon in your place
Hollow-hearted, strung out and you’re hooked on toxic waste.

And if I thought you’d come around
You’d prove me wrong and let me down
I cannot follow where you’re bound…

So now I’ve got to shut you out
I’ve got to learn to live without
There is no point to wait it out….

We had so much, I thought we had it made!
But now it’s all betrayed
You’ve left this demon in your place
Hollow-hearted, strung out and now hopelessly disgraced.

You had so much!
To live for—
To live for —
To live for everyday!

You’ve left this demon ---
This demon in your place
This shouldn’t be you!

about

Black Gingham Spokane, Washington

BG’s punchy beats, powerful riffs and emotion packed vocals concisely captures the mood of conflicted feelings of teen angst. While darkness permeates the musical theme, a tone of hope/optimism lingers amid the vibe. Sometimes forceful and aggressive other times melancholy and reflecting, BG’s music resonates like a restless chord within the soul, indicative of anxious emotions in turbulent times. ... more
