After spending a month in the studio, Dropsaw has finished recording their 3rd album titled HARD JUSTICE set to be released May 14th 2010. The album was recorded in San Diego, USA with As I Lay Dying frontman Tim Lambesis, Kelly Cairns and Daniel Castleman (Austrian Death Machine, Winds Of Plague, Sworn Enemy, Impending Doom). The band have taken a large step in the way of song writing, mixing it up though the album with insanely fast thrash and destructive breakdowns and keeping that 'heavy as fuck' Dropsaw sound.
Misery
Dropsaw Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
BLAH!
emptiness, the feeling of losing someone close
it drains my mind
my soul is lost
nothing seems to be going my way
now your gone I still got so much to say
all I hear are words repeating
in my fucking head
why must it end in misery
the light at the end of this tunnel is fading fast
all I hear are words repeating
in my fucking head
why must it end in misery
The lyrics to Dropsaw's song Misery convey the intense pain and anguish that comes with losing someone close. The song opens with a raw expression of frustration and sadness, with the singer exclaiming "FUCK!" and "BLAH!" The feeling of emptiness that comes with loss is palpable, as the singer describes how it drains their mind and leaves their soul feeling lost. Despite their anguish, the singer still feels like they have so much to say to the person they have lost, highlighting the feeling of regret that comes with not expressing one's feelings before it's too late.
The chorus of the song repeats the same haunting phrase over and over: "all I hear are words repeating in my fucking head, why must it end in misery?" This repetition echoes the cyclical nature of grief and how it can feel like a never-ending cycle of pain and suffering. The singer's desperation is showcased in their plea for the "light at the end of this tunnel" to not fade away too quickly, as they struggle to cope with the overwhelming emotions.
