ChaotiMusic.com 023 - Off the Grid

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain”

This is a song where the curtain is removed, and all we have left is the man. Well…. the man and his guitar. Nothing else.

There is obvious allusions to computer networking, but they are not the true meaning. The true meaning should be obvious….

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
Never is a long time
To live in this cave
Forever I am waiting
In this bed I have made

Prechorus:
I wish there was something (someone)
To connect me
I wish there was something (someone)
To infect me

Chorus:
Cut off from the network
Down here, off the grid
Cut off from affection
Down here, off the grid

Verse 2:
Walls made of fire
Everyone is burned
Halls echo empty
Oh why am I spurned

  1. hey dan,

    your guitar work is strangely beautiful and complex. perhaps I hold this opinion as I don’t listen to metal much at all, but i admire the way the guitar is able to capture the entirety of what you intend to convey.

    I think as a whole you need to work on vocals if you really want your piece to strike a chord in people. as a singer/songwriter myself I’ve been criticised constantly about how my own guitar work isn’t to the level that my vocals are.
    technical stuff aside, it’s really all about giving it to God isn’t it.
