Eric Slick - Darkest Shade of Red

To Rate
Scenes from a Pentium lake
I know the body is fake
I'm at the movies with a variable into me
Anyway
Left before anyone's done
Walk til I learn how to run
I'm just a child in this one
I didn't know how to listen
Anyway

This wave keeps coming in
And I don't know how to swim
The light is getting dim
And I start drowning
So be careful what you do
It's like I'm holding in
The darkest shade of red
But I'm not drowning

I took you back to your place
Told me I was a disgrace
I want ready to be chastised
For things I'm doing
Anyway
Your friend don't like me at all
Knew it a long time ago
I went home with a smile on
Cast all my fatе into nylon
Anyway

This wave keeps coming in
And I don't know how to swim
The light is getting dim
And I start drowning in your sins
So bе careful what you do
It's like I'm holding in
The darkest shade of red
But I'm not drowning

I'm not drowning

Song Description:

"Darkest Shade of Red" by Eric Slick is a haunting and introspective song that explores themes of self-doubt, regret, and personal growth. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a troubled relationship, with the protagonist feeling like an outsider and struggling to find their place. The imagery of a "Pentium lake" and a "wave keeps coming in" creates a sense of being overwhelmed by emotions and circumstances beyond their control. Despite the darkness and uncertainty, there is a sense of resilience and determination in the chorus, as the protagonist declares that they are not drowning, even as they navigate the complexities of their own emotions. The song blends elements of indie rock and introspective lyrics to create a deeply emotional and thought-provoking listening experience.
