Black and Blue
Echoes of Despair: Gorilla Wizard's Black and Blue Reveals a Symphony of Emotional Turmoil
Lyrics
Creeping in slowly from the corners of the brainwave
There is a gradual intrusion into the thoughts or mind.
Leaving a trail of hurt
Leaving a path of emotional pain or distress.
Waxing all poetic as the feeling gets established
Expressing emotions poetically as they become established.
Driving into the dirt
Intensifying the negative feelings, possibly causing damage.
Drink one for the living, drink one for the dead
Symbolic toasting for both the living and the deceased.
Spirits combine as the forces align to warp what's in my head
Spirits merging, aligning forces to distort thoughts.
