Written and recorded in Feb 2015 at Western State Hospital in Staunton, VA

lyrics

A3: “Boom” By: Andrew Neil Maternick, February 2015
Here I am once again
without a friend
will it ever end
You will miss me
yes you will
bottle of whiskey
and another pill
should I pretend

I did it before
why not do it again
escape the world
in my head
truth or dare
dare or truth
the nightmare of past abuse
Juliet is dead

There’s a cricket in the corner of my room
Chirp chirp the gun goes boom
There’s a cricket in the corner of my room
Chirp chirp the gun goes boom
gun goes boom gun goes boom

I’m going a thousand miles per hour
and I’m not afraid to crash
For I have a super power
I can rise from the ash
I can rise from the ash

I’m exhausted I really am
If I’m lost I don’t give a damn
no going back
Ships have been burned
no going home
one thing you learn
when your all alone
your favorite color’s black

There’s a cricket in the corner of my room
Chirp chirp the gun goes boom
There’s a cricket in the corner of my room
Chirp chirp the gun goes boom
gun goes boom gun goes boom
