This thing that I've become
  • 1  This thing that I've become
This is my first album. I've been telling myself for 20 years I was going to make an album and I finally hit the wood shed and got 'er done. These songs are basically a collection of songs I've written over the past 20 years. I left out most of my ballads because I wanted my first album to rock. :)

Story behind the song:

This song was written for a friend's horror movie and based off of the script.  The movie is about a father getting revenge on a guy who raped and murdered his daughter on her 16th birthday.  It's very dark lyrically, but I love the haunting melody of the intro section.  

Lyrics

I have found the darkest place

the blackest that Ive known

Its absent of all things

of everything I loved

Ive come to take you there

so you can finally see

this thing that Ive become

thats killing me

youve haunted me these years

crawling in my head

a song that never ends

a song about the dead

Ive come to take you home

to show you what youve done

so you can finally see

this thing that Ive become

look at me look at me

is this the face of sympathy

is there life in these eyes

if there is its your enemy

look at you just look at you

feed the rage Im coming to

what youve done

I am numb

now youll know what Ive become

this thing that Ive become

did she fight did she cry

when you stood and watched her die

did you feel like a god

when you saw fear in her eyes

I will have my revenge

you will never kill again

what youve done I am numb

now youll know what Ive become

this thing that Ive become
