The Split Between Man and Lion

[rocket2234]

This is a song I'm writing for my band. Haven't done anything as of yet with instrumentals though.

The Split Between Man and Lion
==============================
[VERSE 1]
And I ask myself
Was it really worth it?
Cause tonight I sleep in the dark
With my emotions
But don't we all know?
Attachment is the origin of suffering
And now I don't believe
Believe in faith

[PRE-CHORUS 1]
And I'm caught in the middle
Cause we all know
That's not where I want to be

[CHORUS]
KEEP IT UP AND SIGN ME UP
THIS IS SOMETHING SHORT OF NOTHING
THE END OF EVERYTHING IS COMING
AND HERE'S THE COUNTDOWN, HELP ME WITH IT
5....4....3....2....1

[VERSE 2]
And I ask myself
What should I regret?
Not everything works out for the best anymore
In the end
Got time to waste with me?
Go ahead and make your choice
Because I'm doing this for you
So I don't have to see you like this

[PRE-CHORUS 2]
The man is pulling me further away
Away from the lion
But will they just tear me apart?

[CHORUS]
KEEP IT UP AND SIGN ME UP
THIS IS SOMETHING SHORT OF NOTHING
THE END OF EVERYTHING IS COMING
AND HERE'S THE COUNTDOWN, HELP ME WITH IT
5....4....3....2....1

[VERSE 3]
And now I ask you
What is your reaction?
Someday, in the event that something
Could go terribly wrong
I need to know
What's your cue?
What's your trigger?
Tell me when to pull it

[PRE-CHORUS 3]
The lion has got me
And I'm scared as hell
Its about to tear me apart

[CHORUS]
KEEP IT UP AND SIGN ME UP
THIS IS SOMETHING SHORT OF NOTHING
THE END OF EVERYTHING IS COMING
AND HERE'S THE COUNTDOWN, HELP ME WITH IT
5....4....3....2....1

Bump. Any comments or criticism on this please?

Pretty good. The chorus is ace.
THIS IS SOMETHING SHORT OF NOTHING. Nice line. Sounds Underoath-ey.
