I got the vaccine back in May and it has been messing with me ever since: dizziness, fatigue, a host of other ridiculous symptoms that I can't seem to shake. Good times! Makes for a good rock song, though.
These regrets are building up, these regrets are building up inside these walls
But it's just been too darn long, it's just been too darn long, I want it out
And I wanna be fair about it, I wanna be fair about it after all
But I think that this time I did it wrong
And I can still feel the needle driving in my skin bone deep to let the virus in
And we ain't gonna win
I know we must face our fears, I know that that's a fact
But this time there is no turning back
There is no turning back
I'm sick on most days, I'm sick on most days, I'm sick on most days, I'm sick on most
And I'm done just playin' the role, I'm done just playin' the role of parasitic host
I don't wanna be fair about it, I don't wanna be fair about it anymore
But god I fear there's no other course
And I can still feel the needle driving in my skin bone deep to let the virus in
And we ain't gonna win
I know we must face our fears, I know that that's a fact
But this time there is no turning back
No turning back
And I'm sorry my friends
I have to lay down again
I'm sorry my friends
I have to lay down again
I'm sorry my friends
But I have to lay down again
And I can still feel the needle driving in my skin bone deep to let the virus in
And we ain't gonna win
I know we must face our fears, I know that that's a fact
But this time there is no turning back
There is no turning back

Wow, so sorry to hear about your long-term bad reaction and all the suffering it has caused. That really isn't fair since you got the vaccine for all the right reasons. But in the midst of it, you've created a rockin' song that has some real punchiness to it. I hope it was cathartic.

Masterful rock production. I just cannot believe your range.

Badass my friend. Well done.

Very well-crafted song. The various parts work together so well. Nice job!

I’m so sorry you’re suffering, from one chronic illness person to another :( this is a really good song about it, I can feel the tension in the different directions the experience pulls you. Your voice is amazing and you have a really good ear for dynamics and flow of the arrangement, really enjoyable listen
