Page 12 of His Last Chase

The studio we practiced in wasn’t too far away. Once we got there and had everything set up I asked, “What do you guys want to start with?”

Locked and loaded, ready to jam, Rhone called out, “Soul Deep!”

That’s all I needed to belt out the intro.

Don’t. Look. Back.

Each word screamed with a pause between, and I held onto the word back to elongate the scream.

Can you hear it?

Hear it calling to you?

Can you feel it?

Feel it screaming for release

It’s coming for you

Don’t fight it

Don’t try to hide it

It’s coming for you

So you better be ready

It’s coming for…you

The beast releases its wings as it emerges

Even free it still controls you

Where it goes you follow

When it stops, you obey

Feel it deep within your soul

That familiar pain

That familiar sorrow

Until you relent it controls you

Until you forgive it owns you

Let it out, let it free

Let it fly, let it flee

Let it find another soul to burden

Say goodbye, it’s time to take back control

Now you hold all the cards

So what will you do?
