Repetition (Song Adaptation – First Try)

Here it is, guys – a bit rough, I understand.  It has some noise from the breeze blowing about the window and whatnot, but I’m pretty happy with it, at the moment.  I may try to record a better quality version when I get a bit better handle on this whole sound manipulation gig, but this will do for now.  I hope you enjoy it :D

Repetition is…
~
The dismemberment of the mind
And the atrophy of the soul.
~
“I will remember to endeavor to never forget
To follow tradition without thought, without question…
~
…without reflection of inclination or reason…”
You’ll write this 100 times, or it’s treason.
You’ll live this 200 times before your season
~
—My father’s weary eyes melt inward.
All hail the death of the majority’s hero!
Surely he knew exactly
what his father’s fathers had done—
~
“…And I won’t ask whether I’m out of line.”
As long as you cage someone else, you’ll be fine.
~
So light the lies of compromise,
then watch them all blow out like flies,
one by one, you setting sons.
~
But don’t forget that still inside
you’re kissing all sweet hells in life,
you’re full of rage, and yet so young.
