The Hollow9ine Network returns with a special and experimental new program...
Today we're talking about Perspective, reflecting on the recent encounters of the last month and what they might've really been, as opposed to what they might have seemed to be.
Also, Dave wrote a song, and it's included in the episode. Here are the lyrics...
“Best of the Worst…”
"[Verse 1]
It was the best
of the worst of times...
Chaotic torrent
blowing through my mind...
And every time
that I closed my eyes...
Felt like I died
trying to come back to life...
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm left to wooonder
if it's really me who's standing here
and if they seeeee me
as I'm bleeding, and do they care
Are those her fingernails,
digging deeper into my back?
And is that her laughter that I'm hearing
as the world goes black?
[Chorus}
Am I a billboard for everything you love to hurt?
Am I your broken bones, a monument of dirt?
Do you ever stop long enough to realize,
that I'm the best of the worst instincts
running though....your mind?
[Verse 2]
The broken days
giving way to night...
Learning to live on
without the light...
She speaks in echoes
when she's not there....
But I still see her
everywhere...
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm drowning uuunder
the steady crashing of the waves
the rolling thuuunder
waking alive inside a grave
the shadows creeeeping
around at every turn
and I'm surrooounded
by a fire, but still I will not burn
[Chorus]
Are you a phantom of every heart I've lost?
Or are you the one who nailed me to this cross?
What was that fire that I saw behind your eyes?
Were you burning the best of the worst
running through....your mind?
[Bridge]
What was it that made you so afraid?
Was it your lips like a razor blade?
Was it the rain pouring down for days?
Was it the moment that kept repeating,
the heart that wouldn't stop its beating,
the wound that wouldn't stop it's bleeding,
a stain that wouldn't wash away?
[Chorus}
Am I a billboard for everything you love to hurt?
Am I your broken bones, a monument of dirt?
Do you ever stop long enough to realize,
that I'm the best of the worst thing that
you love...or do you still have to lie?"
...this program is created in hopes that the life lessons Dave is discovering can be a beacon to those who find themselves similarly lost at sea, in search of a light in the darkness...in search of the hope he, himself, has been searching for...
