about

This song came from nerdy origins to develop into something we think everyone can identify with. This is a song about how each time we make a choice, we leave behind the version of us that would have gone the other way, and sometimes, we wonder about and miss that person. We hope you enjoy this boppy hard rock tribute to a DnD character whose story was cut short.

lyrics

My hand will be forced
Never could have gone your way
Your life is just a draft
Tomorrow, you will have no say.

Life tore the map free
From our veins
Now you can’t show me
Where to go anymore

And if I could
I’d throw you a lifeline
Just to keep you in my mind
I’d give you a lifetime
To screw up and find me something

We had to cut our ties
Before I ever saw you jump
Your truth choked back, crossed out
For all we’d made and all we’d tried I was still numb

Life tore the map free
From our veins
Now you can’t tell me
Where to go anymore

And if I could
I’d throw you a lifeline
Just to keep you in my mind
I’d give you a lifetime
To screw up and find me somehow

Couldn’t you
Have just
Been right
And finished
Taken me over, taken me under, taken me over, taken me to
Make the right mistakes
Find the truth in the wrong places
Taken me over taken me under, taken me over, taken me under

World burned your choices
From my heart
Now there can be no
Escape anymore

And if I could
I’d throw you a lifeline
Just to keep you in my mind
I’d give you a lifetime
To screw up and get me somewhere
I’d throw you a lifeline
Just to keep you in my mind
I’d give you a lifetime
To screw up and make me go there.
