The 2 Sides (2012): Involuntary Suicide

Story

"Involuntary suicide" was always one the songs that caught my attention, because it was very complex. However, I always thought that it was somewhat slow. So when I remade the song, I made it faster. One take was needed to remake this song, but it actually omits the Wah-wah guitar at the end of the song, found on the original.

Concept

After his heart gets broken in his new life ("Small little lady") our protagonist wanders through the streets, wondering why she doesn't love me. He finds an uncompleted bridge and wants to jump. He does so, only to regret it in the last second. The death angel appears, rips him from his body, and takes him to an afterlife trail. He is found guilty of a life crime - his life -, and has to spend his next life as an insect.

Lyrics

Walking alone in the desert streets

wondering why she doesn't love me

I start to run to flee from her

and I only find myself, scared

I go to a bridge that's not completed

I'm decided to jump like a big eagle

and there's one moment when I want no more

but it is too late, I've already jumped

Already jumped,
yes, yes

Ahh, I'm already gone

Ahh, it was all wrong

Ahh, but I had

Ahh, an involuntary suicide

I saw one man, the Death Angel

He ripped me from my body there

And they judged me, and now I'm here

watching the walls with a great fear

Ahh, I'm already gone

Ahh, it was all wrong

Ahh, but I had

Ahh, an involuntary suicide

And now everything's gone

And now everything's bad

It's all because an involuntary suicide

"Defend yourself" said the judge

"I can not, sir", I said no more

The death judgement made me wait

and then I was just an insect

Ahh, I'm already gone

Ahh, it was all wrong

Ahh, but I had

Ahh, an involuntary suicide

An involuntary suicide

An involuntary suicide

An involuntary suicide
