Departure (First Draft Song Lyrics)

A First Draft of Several Song Lyrics based on the Xbox360 (And now PC) game "Alan Wake" This song is to be turned into a proper song by my friend, I can link her on my Blog @ www.lewisstockton.com

(Verse 1)

Years flow by, Shrouded in mystery.

One goal in my mind; the need to create.

The clacking of the typewriter on pristine pages

All to no Avail.

 

(Verse 2)

Cries for more fuelled the need, built the pressure.

Darkness slipping; violence ensuing.

I cant take no More!.

(background) Take no More!

 

(chorus)

It is all around me!

Darkness surrounding!

Darkness engulfing!

Pulling me deeper.

Fight with the light

Bring about the Return.

(Background)

Fight with the light

Bring about the Return.

 

(Verse 3)

Journeyed from the light

into the hills and to the lakes.

Darkness knew I was near; approaching, encroaching

reaching out with its claws of despair.

Snatching my muse from me.

 

(Verse 4)

I rushed to the cliff; my heart in my throat.

Diving to the rescue, no thought to my life.

I wake dazed, confused and bloodied,

My Journey beginning, battling the Dark.

Souls taken and Consumed.

 

(chorus)

It is all around me!

Darkness surrounding!

Darkness engulfing!

Pulling me deeper.

Fight with the light

Bring about the Return.

(Background)

Fight with the light

Bring about the Return.

 

(Verse 5)

I learn the truth, the fate I walk;

A Poet and his muse,

Cursed by the same fate.

I learn the lesson, arm myself with the light,

Ready for my Return.

 

(Verse 6)

He dived to wake,

Lighting my path;

Bringing my Salvation,

Saving me from the Light.

Only one way out,

Balancing the scales

Sacrificing the Light.

 

(chorus)

It is all around me!

Darkness surrounding!

Darkness engulfing!

Pulling me deeper.

Fight with the light

Bring about the Return.

(Background)

Fight with the light

Bring about the Return.

 

(Verse 7)

Finding the Clicker is my quest,

Defeat the Darkness.

Confronted with Scratch,

My Alter Ego on the outside,

My Job is clear, fix all that is wrong,

Balancing the battle, defeat the darkness

and Sacrifice the light.

 

Sacrifice the light!

Author's Note

This is Only a First Draft, So a few changes will happen and my friend will be moving things around to make it sound better to her song.

Reviews

[Hopeful Llama]

Have you got a singer? This seems like a metal-ish song and you would need someone to be able to scream. I can do that.

[Lewis Stockton]

Thank you :) It is sort of a metal-ish song, if you watch the Poets of the Fall Song "War" which is a Alan Wake song anyway; Its kind of that kind of beat.
