    Alone In The Dark

    Alone In The Dark
    (Written over 'Ballad Of Worms' by Cage)


    *woman singing*
    I can't get that sound you make out of my head
    I can't even figure out what's making it (x2)



    The agony burning hot, as I still deal with these emotions
    Brain cutting off external thought, damn near comatoseing
    With a heart cold and frozen, drowning in sorrow of lakes and oceans
    What would it took or take to notice, yet I thought the gooses eggs were golden
    Standing around reaching, grabbing grasping and holding
    Now knowing a future with her has just been stolen
    Living everyday with pain, sorrow, the sadness and suffering
    Missing every precious moment and not sure how to love again
    The pain bludgeoning, the mind as the hearts already missing
    Arteries and all been stripped - n, being diagnosed with a love sick condition
    Went from floating to falling as the ground has become distant
    Like gravity switched positions, as the life I envisioned abruptly ended
    In the blink of an eye she switched sides and made her decision
    Not happy with the life I was living, our time thrown in the darkest of ditches
    Reminiscing of you with no room for thought, all about my broken heart
    So I stay by myself, secluded, as I'm now just alone in the dark


    *woman singing*
    I can't get that sound you make out of my head
    I can't even figure out what's making it (x2)



    ...the woman singing is the chrous from the original song...

    At last a post with talent!

    I liked this piece for the simple fact that its short and good! Your vocab was exceptionally good and your structure was cool! I would of liked this piece to have been longer for the simple fact i was enjoying reading this piece! I was feeling your rhymes you had some dope perts in your piece! Kepp writing ok, this piece was nice and i'll be looking for more from you!

    I really liked reading this piece. My girl and I just split, so I can really feel where you were coming from. My favorite line was: "Standing around reaching, grabbing grasping and holding//Now knowing a future with her has just been stolen". That really hit home for me. Good structure and vocab, if you have any more rhymes like that, I would like to see them! Keep it up!

    Nice flow and concept. very poetic and the rhymescheme with multis was hot. Ballad of worms is one of my favorite Cage songs, leak brothers own.

    ^that stood out to me. the whole verse was hot... maybe the only faults were that ur wording was sometimes sloppy but i guess it'll flow on the beat.

    The concept is solid, you brought it home at the end, closing it nicely. I enjoyed the rhyming, in the text, you put in some subtle ones internally at the beginning. Depending on how it sounds over the beat will tell if you need to edit some lines. The vocab was nice, staying away from one syllable words ending the line made the piece more complex. The drop was descriptive, lines that stood out to support the image was the drowning in sorrow, arteries stripped, and bludgeoning pain (which I felt was a great word to describe the feeling). The chorus built into the beat fits with the loneliness that the character feels.
