I originally wrote this song back around 2011 or 2012. A friend of mine found herself in some trouble and I thought she'd let me through to help her, but she cut me off along with everyone else. It hurts when you want so bad to be there for someone, but they won't let you through, and so I turned to music and wrote this song. I worked hard on this one; definitely my best mix (at the time).

My friend, Sam, helped with this one; it's tough with some of these older songs since most of the parts are already written, but he helped out quite a bit with the drum arrangement, as well as some backup screams. He programed some patterns, then sent me the midi to run through a custom kit I made in Logic Pro.
For guitar, I used my Schecter Hellraiser Solo 6 and recorded directly into my DAW running through my Behringer interface and my Presonus TubePre. I used the LeGion amp sim by LePou Plugins for my rhythm tone and the NC_8505_ Lead by Nick Crow Labs for my lead tone.

For bass I used my Washburn XB100 and recorded directly in my DAW through the interface; the tone was made with mostly stock plugins. I recorded vocals with the Audio Technica AT2020.

Lyrics

Lyrics:

Well, I know you've coped with this loneliness.
You think you're okay, but you've been tricked.
I'm out here pleading, but you can't hear me;
Your silent screams are deafening.

Well, ignore my warning, just know that I'm sorry for you.
And all this time, just know that I've tried for you.
Come back to me!

I thought I was different, but you made me like them;
Begged you to hold on, but you still let go.
And from the distance, I can see what's missing,
But you never listen, so you'll never know.

Well, ignore my warning, just know that I'm sorry for you.
And all this time, just know that I've tried for you.
Come back to me!

You're my closest friend,
And my deepest wound;
My most painful scar,
And I cherish you.

Well, ignore my warning, just know that I'm sorry for you.
And all this time, just know that I've tried for you.
Come back to me!
