Where did the years go?

The time passed so slow

But still the wind blows

Me onto my toes

 

When did I just die?

Inside me, oh why?

When did I just shy

Away from my life!

 

I’m a slave on the inside

A demon on the outside

And I’m walking side by side

With my own alibis!

 

I look at myself

Mirror in a shelf

I’m like no one else

I’m not someone else

 

Everyone go away

I’d rather just pay

For mistakes I’ve made

More than you just stay!

 

I’m a slave on the inside

A demon on the outside

And I’m walking side by side

With my own alibis!

 

(Guitar Solo 1)

 

And now I must pay

For mistakes I’ve made

And now I must cry

At the devils side

 

And now I must see

All the tragedy

And now I must spill

My blood on my will!

 

(Guitar Solo 2)

 

I’m a slave on the inside

A demon on the outside

And I’m walking side by side

With my own alibis!

This song is about deception and the confusion it brings. It is not necessarily religious, but it is depicted as so. I'm not sure this one should be a mainstream song

I wander the world

Looking for a friend

I ponder so long

Waiting for my end

And then the one comes

Who says he’s me friend

Is it true, or is it Satan again!

 

I have no faith

In what I see or what you tell

I can do good

But in the end I’ll burn in hell!

 

You are helping me

That is what you say

But is this all true

Or the devil’s game

You came down to me

You said you’re my friend

Is it true, or is it Satan again!

 

I have no faith

In what I see or what you tell

I can do good

But in the end I’ll burn in hell!

And I heard you

But I cannot see; it’s hard to tell

Will you save me?

Or will I just go burn in hell!

 

Try to defend me

You pretend to be

Are you there for me?

I can’t seem to see

Are you there for me?

Are you aware of me?

If I do not tell

Will I burn in Hell!

 

I have no faith

In what I see or what you tell

I can do good

But in the end I’ll burn in hell!

And I heard you

But I cannot see; it’s hard to tell

Will you save me?

Or will I just go burn in hell!

This one might be one of the best songs i have ever written. I am willing to put it on the main album if u guys want

Somewhere

Written By Mike Mantecon

I can hear your voice

Calling out to me

I can hear the cries

Coming out from me

 

I can hear your voice

But it is all a distant blur

I can see my choice

Of a life, now all just a blur

 

I need you here now

I can see you though the snow

Will I ever see?

You, maybe not, maybe never, though

 

I won’t worry anymore

I know you’re out there

Somewhere

I saw you there before

I know you’re out there

Somewhere

 

I can hear the chains

Rattle all the same

I am trapped, distant

For your warm mane

 

I feel so desperate

Everything is now all nothing

I want you here now

So all that nothing is something

 

I calling you right now

I can see you through the lies

I can call you now

But I could only just say goodbye

 

But I won’t worry anymore

I know you’re out there

Somewhere

I saw you there before

I know you’re out there

Somewhere

 

(Guitar Solo)

 

And I won’t worry anymore

I know you’re out there

Somewhere

I saw you there before

I know you’re out there

Somewhere

 

Somewhere

 

Somewhere

O what I would do

What I would do for you

If you were here right now

O what I would say

What I would say today

If you were here somehow

 

Winds turn turbines around

But without any sound

So does my heart right now

 

The winds came hard today

And took you far away

I’m have nothing to say

 

Nothing to say

Expect one thing

That I wonder

O this one thing

 

O what I would do

What I would do for you

If you were here right now

O what I would say

What I would say today

If you were here somehow

 

If I could say one word

To you, one final word

What would be the word?

 

I would ask of you then

Do you remember when?

We used to be friend

 

It’s now all gone

So far downhill

But I must hope

Hope for you still

 

O what I would do

What I would do for you

If you were here right now

O what I would say

What I would say today

If you were here somehow

 

(Guitar Solo)

 

What would I do for you?

I would give myself up

What would I say to you?

I would say you’re enough

 

For my life and all else

For someone like myself

But it is far too late

Your name is carved in slate!

 

O what would I do?

If you were somehow

Still here

The story plot will start with me being born on black Friday. Some parts are too sensitive for me to share with every1. Whereas the main album synthesize deals with my middle school years mainly, this album deals with early age and elementary school. It's kind of a story behind the story, how it all came to be how it was in middle school, that type of stuff. Please do not laugh at me of think of me any different when i share the songs with you guys, okay:)
