about

Give Me A Day (part II)

For the price of a "day," The Betrayed starts telling The Betrayer a story about how he came to be this bodiless entity. He used to be a servant to this race of giant serpents, and knowing he would eventually be eaten alive, he yearned to escape. One day, a bodiless entity showed up and offered to free him for the price of a "dream."

lyrics

I’d like to be your soul
Imagine what we’d see!
All these things you fear have nothing on me…

Treason’s just a penny for the poor
To put ‘em up when they’re unsure
‘Cause when you’re failing in pairs,
It makes you feel less alone
At least you’re still a part of something

I’ll tell you my story if you give me a day

From the start, I had no heart
Born a servant to serpents, I was a slave
-Kept their rattles and polished their fangs
Some would say I was brave…

But I knew one day they would devour me
I knew one day we’d all be consumed
I’d be packed up and fed to their young
Life was nothing but cruel to me

And just like you, one day someone came to me
And he said,
“Let me be your soul
I can set you free
You’ve had no choice ‘til now
Just give me a dream”

I didn’t regret
T’was better than dead
They would’ve bit off my head
I saw it coming!
I’d be a pile of shit—I’m better than that
I made the deal with the djinn
I let him come in
I let him in

Beautifully Worthless Beings

Yet another Justin Bonitz side-project, which revolves around very long, singular songs split into multiple parts but meant to be listened to as one, and they written, recorded, and mixed in just ten days time.
