Song 2: Is It Really You?

Author: Ghostpipe

I wrote this one about 6 months back, while in a state of utter pensiveness after my fishing trip in August 2007. As usual, my lyrics don't make much sense if you just read it off the shelf like a novel or a menu (sometimes I do wish I could write like Chris Daughtry). This song tells about how one should be who they think they ought to and could be, and not to just confine themselves to being who they are at this very moment of their existence. It describes how one is truly free in one's mind, to be whoever one thinks one could be, and by believing so one could actually accomplish what one wants to become.

I had a very tumultuous time in the last couple of years trying to figure out what the flying fairies I really wanted to be. Well I think I'm getting closer to finding the answer, the haze is getting clearer but no so just yet, so I guess I just need to dig a bit deeper into myself. And writing songs is I find the only way for me to dig deeper, safely and surely. Here it is:

In the centre, a human line

Darkness seized the better of my mind

Feeling empty, nothing left behind

Voices came with words I can’t define


Ghostly silence, they move away

Lonely is the one who’s gone astray

Light in water, death is out to play

Caught the sight of life that made me stay


(And) I need, to get back on my feet again

(And) I need, to get back on my feet again


I….I never realized, that you could be the one

To lift me out of despair

I… I searched myself inside, to find the one that I’ve

Been looking for all this time


Final hours, I breathe the sea

Waiting for salvation from the free

Give me your love, give me energy

Is it really you I’m gonna be


(And) I need, to get back on my feet again

(And) I need, to get back on my feet again


I….I never realized, that you could be the one

To lift me out of despair

I… I searched myself inside, to find the one that I’ve

Been looking for all this time


Aaaahh….Is it really you….

Aaaahh….Is it really you….


I….I never realized, that you could be the one

To lift me out of despair

I… I searched myself inside, to find the one that I’ve

Been looking for all this time


I….I never realized, that you could be the one

To lift me out of despair

I… I searched myself inside, to find the one that I’ve

Been looking for all this time
