I sit in my chair surrounded by blackness
looking before me dots of red dance up and down
i change my view and stare at the scieling
fantasies fill my thoughts and I dream
soothed by the instrumental melody floating in the air
words give feeling deep within the skin
vibrate me with your electric guitar
beat me with the pounding of your drums
drown me out with your deep bass
play for me and only me, take me in
lost in this world surrendering to the waves
escape what I know and free me once again.

Never heard of the song or the band. But I really enjoyed this piece. I can tell that it was strait from YOU... there's an obviously personal connection here.
Nicely done. Good luck in the contest.
