August Burns Red | Song: Composure | Album: Messengers
Shake it off
Pick yourself up, they say
Your life fell apart in your hands, and you've got the scars to prove it
It's not the first time, and they're getting deeper
Pull it together
Button up your shirt
Roll down those sleeves
Don't let them see how you've coped
It's not the first time, and they're getting deeper
More and more your demeanor looks like quicksand
More and more your demeanor looks like quicksand
It seems like your giving up, giving up on everything you worked for
It seems like your giving up, giving up on everything you worked for
It's pulling you under
It's gripping around your throat
It's pulling you under
It's gripping around your throat
It seems like your giving up on everything
It seems like your giving up on everything
It's pulling you under
(It's pulling you under)
Life can be overwhelming
But don't turn your back on the strongest crutch you've ever had
(You've ever had)
They have always been there to brace your fall
Wave goodbye to the past
You've got your whole life to lead
Wave goodbye to the past
You've got your whole life to lead
Wave goodbye to the past
You've got your whole life to lead
Wave goodbye to the past
You've got your whole life to lead
You've got your whole life to lead
You've got your whole life to lead
It's time to gain some ground

Hi exzorltg,
Visit curiesteem.com or join the Curie Discord community to learn more.
The lyrics are inspiring for me.
And the sounds are great.
Love to hear vocals maybe next time?
the lyrics of the song is the main reason why I recorded it, yesterday I lost everything that I had gathered with my work of the last weeks and I felt devastated, I felt that I had no reason to strive because nothing would be worth it but then I remembered that song and I was inspired again.
for my next recording I will make a video of the process so that you can see how I prepare and do everything, this time as it was something spontaneous I did not plan to show so much of the process. The next video will be an original song.
Great!
I look forward on it.
Good luck!
I love Steemit because I get to learn new things every day. I knew nothing about August Burns Red but while listening to the music I ran a search to find out who they are. Now I know who they are.
It's been a while since I've listened to this kind of music, so it was the perfect time I guess. I love this vocal cover.
thanks, I put a lot of effort into my covers especially because they are always songs that means a lot to me, I hope to discover new music with you as well as you knew this band in my post.
I can tell you put your heart into the music, that translates. Please continue your work :)
