Rae

This is one of the lyrical songs that I have written, and although I DO NOT have a piano part written out for it yet, I hope to be doing that very soon. It is called Rae and is probably the lengthiest of the lyrical songs that I have written. It can also be found on my other blog, I'm Never Write. I will try to upload me singing it (if I am comfortable enough), once I figure out how. Please leave comments! Deep metaphors in this one. Enjoy!

Rae
By Adam Gonzales

My heart becomes
The beating drum
And I hear your Song
I see your trail
It’s light; it’s frail
And it leads into the wood

You laugh, you smile;
Though your life is a trial
And now I follow you
I’ll always stay true
My soul’s an empty blue:
It’s broke

CHORUS:
“Living in borrowed shoes
Walking on borrowed paths
This is the only ruse I feel

Following borrowed Light
Wandering in the night
As long as I find you”

And now I see
The line of trees
And I feel the breeze
The path: it turns
My choices burn
An echo of my past

The black is near,
For now I fear
That your trail has finally faded
And now I’ve become the hated
What was once infatuated,
Is lost

CHORUS:
“Living in borrowed shoes
Walking on borrowed paths
This is the only ruse I feel

Following borrowed Light
Wandering in the night
As long as I find you”

Now time beats on
The dark is wrong
And I long for the dawn
My chains are cold
And I’m growing old
I need them to break

You have the key
But you won’t free me
And now I am finally dying
And what’s worse: I won’t stop crying
So why can’t you just stop lying?
You care

CHORUS:
“Living in borrowed shoes
Walking on borrowed paths
This is the only ruse I feel

Following borrowed Light
Wandering in the night
As long as I find you”

CHORUS (REPRISE):
“Living in borrowed blood
Walking on borrowed laughs
Wading on through the flood, I feel...

...I’m following borrowed hope
Wandering down a slope
As long as I find you,
As long as I find you,
As long as you find me
