Quick take. Hate the vocals but here it is. ONWARD!
Underneath the heavy sleep
All the shadows I strive to keep
Chained away under lock and key
In my slumber they can't get to me
In the light of day
They're so hard to keep away
Slither through the mind
Heavy heart comes to a grind
Dim lights broken by the ceiling fan
Slip through wherever the dark began
Cyclically. Belatedly.
Pull me down to where it's easy to see.
In the light of day
Demons hide among the frey
All the doors shut tight
They survive just fine in the light

@seanbrennan I find your assessment charitable but much appreciated and thanks! I always feel so exposed when singing without yelling, so that's my challenge for this FAWM. Now that I live in a duplex, especially ..

I am sorry you aren't a fan of the vox - but I know how it can be to hear yourself on playback. As it happens, I'm quite a fan of them, particularly how nimbly they maneuver through the chord changes in the chorus. There's a lot of power here, and that solo in the outro is gorgeous. Keep on FAWMing!
