Of course I'm okay.
Fine actually,
I love metal music
What ****** me off
is the notion that because the musics loud
and the lyrics are different
something must be wrong
Metal music is a family.
its riff laden roots are dug deep into the roots of my family tree
when I crossed that muddy bank I brought all of me I could.
Except,
I forgot my family.
I couldn't bring them through the mud.
I couldn't bring them desert mountain air
So when I miss them just a little too much,
You can bet I'm gonna put on
Slayer or Megadeth
to drown out the pain of an empty house
That heavy emotion
resonates deep in my chest and it fills my lungs
drowning out the words I cannot say.
Words like I love you,
Words like I wish you were here
Words like I miss you.
