Waterfall (single)

about

'An Anthem of Anguish' influenced by classical and musical theatre genres. Inspired by my own struggle with severe depression and, in part, by The Hunger Games Trilogy (which I was reading when I wrote it).

For the FULL 'story behind the song', please, see this blog post:

lyrics

I close my eyes against the pain
I don't want to feel this way again
Try to shut out the world and all its games
I can't fight the tears
I know I cannot win
And I go under once more
(not for the last time)
I can't breathe - yet I'm still breathing, somehow
My heart crashes on the rocks below
I'm pulled to and fro
Overwhelmed by the rushing force that brings me down
Crushed and bruised, under it all
Waterfall
