An Anger

Some kind of folk-ish song with a dash of electric thrown in. It's the beginning of a narrative – not sure what exactly. Includes a way too ambitious lyrical reference to Amazing Grace.

Lyrics

there was an anger
I gathered in my heart
like ammunition
loaded in the dark

struck by a notion
I broke the piece/peace(?)
opened the chambers
and looked to the east

red sun was rising
over the hills
revealing intentions
I aimed to kill

rhythm of blood
flows through my veins; beats in my chest
so I … scattered the bullets
and turned to the west

===

there will be moments in your life
when the rage you hold inside
makes you insane

if you let your weapon go
the direction will be shown
follow the way

===

disarm and deliver
recoiled around
trigger transgressions
hammer it down

target the reason
a force unforeseen
the fragments of anger
became the seeds

===

there will be moments in your life
when the rage you hold inside
makes you insane

if you let your weapon go
the direction will be shown
follow the way

===

I … I was blind
now I see
now I see

I … I was blind
now I see
now I see
