As per my usual song writing style these lyrics were written to fit into a pre-formed melody so I apoligise if are a little odd in bits I thought it would be interesting to hear some comments.

A Means to An End

Better to be alone than lost in a complication
Better to be dead than live unattained

Better to be afraid
Than hide from whats not worth hiding for

As the lights wind down again
Sigh and turn the days around
Restrain and withdraw
Its better in the end

Better to think aloud
Than deprive those who won't be hearing it

As the lights wind down again
Sigh and turn the days around
Restrain and withdraw
Admit and give in
Its better in the end

Giving all you've got, why not, turn yourself in
Lying in your head, why not, find a means to an end

Restrain and withdraw
So they'll tell you
Retrain and with draw
So your told to
It's better in the end
It's better in the end

Set to dark kinda APC-ish music, huge heavy explosion about 4mins into a 5min 30sec song, ends with echoing feedback. Sorry no recording yet, only just testing it live. But lyrics, comments, impressions? I'm a stream of consciousness writer so I'm as in the dark as you are!
