Wrote in Early 2021 and revisited later- This is a very RAW track that can get intense at times. It has a unique Rhythm for sure, and is somewhere between Metal/Punk and pop. Full of passion and reference to a "Digital Trap" is how many have felt over the last two years during COVID-19. Enjoy and Share!
lyrics
Hold my Coffee-
While I break free from this narcissistic trap!
Here I am! I let me out.
I have to decide- Choose to be free, but I'd rather Die.
All of the Musicians that I looked up to before,
They're now afraid, afraid to speak their minds.
So I'll do this, and you do you.
I guess we're not the same, but it's only the truth.
You're in a digital trap, we're in a digital trap.
I'm in a digital trap, You can't tell me how to act.
We're in a digital trap, you're in a digital trap.
I'm in a digital trap, you can't tell us how to act!
Woah-oh-oh, Woah-oh-oh.
Stop your Talking- 'cause when I leave I never ever come back.
Yeah, you oughta know, I've given up on pretty much everything by now!
I'm just about to pull the cords...so I find my strength and energy,
All from my dog because he's the only one that loves me!
(I'm not digital, that's whack)
(Are you digital man?)
Watch me break free from this narcissistic trap.
Watch me break free from your complete control.
Oh, I won't wait up.
Gave you everything I never had.
I'm figuring out now that maybe, everyone's got a fight.
I'm never better than that.
I have the sense to forgive you now and,
I won't regret it all.
I remember the way things really were, and I'll never be lost again.
(So I'm dealing with that right now)
If I exist, and you do too?
Well we're not the same!
So what do we do?
You're in a digital trap,
I'm in a digital trap,
We're in a digital trap, you can't tell me how to act.
I'm in a digital trap,
You're in a digital trap,
We're in a digital trap, and you can't tell me how to ACT!
(Woah-oh-oh)
I'm crying for no one- I cry for no one.
I cry for no one....no one.

There's a sort of fleeting honesty rivaled by none. Guitar tones that put you in tune with some thoughts that you tend to block out of your head most of the day, yet hold key importance. Colin Burke
