Hey Steemians!

It's that time again isn't it? Time for the best contest on steemit.com, the open mic. Thank you @luzcypher and @pfunk!

This week I'm doing an old original I've never done anything with entitled Life In Vain. 

Here are the lyrics

there is no point 
there is no meaning
when nothing's real
maybe misleading
I tell you now
On my arrival
I come to die
no more survival

for all the wasted years and all the wasted lies
I cling to you out of the fear of being alone
not for the love, even it's not real

I am a failure
can I not be?
when all of life is an absurdity
There's no solution
just release from pain
as we don't matter
we live and die in vain


I hope you all enjoyed that. Here's some more of my recent post for you to check out.

Nice riffing at the beginning of this one!

Thanks bro

Well..that pretty much is the ultimate version of that subject matter.
:)
I admire you for conquering the genre.
Well done!

I feel your song. it goes down well with the beer I am drinking and the mood I am in. Wonderful solo guitar intro. Thanks man.

Thanks Troy. I'm happy you felt it.

There's a lot of soul in your playing. Nice.

Thank you very much

dude. this song was a real chuckle! this must be the ultimate nihilistic anthem... I always find a bit of nihilism strangely liberating, although from the sounds of the song, you weren't feeling too ecstatic at the time. Thanks for sharing.... life doesn't feel quite as pointless when you're enjoying it, and I enjoyed listening to this track! Peace and LOVE xx basil

Thanks, I find it liberating as well. It's the cry of mankind. Very cathartic.

A nice upvote from me.
You deserve it.
A lovely original song!

Thank you very much

Another sweet tune brother. Loved it

Thank you so much bro

Thank you for playing dude!

Loved the intro with the loop!... Very dark and deep song!, love it!

Thank you brother

Has a bit of a slow Metallica feel going on. I really dig the guitaring man!

Thank you, I'm happy you enjoyed it :)

Yep also remained my a little bit of Metallica... Pretty cool...
