Over the past few months, things have been pretty rough for me and my friends. A lot of things have happened that have made my life a mess, especially due dates and friendships. This song really spoke to me (and not because it's made by my favorite artist) but the meaning behind the song: that, even if life is throwing crap at you, there is still a light in the darkness. I made this little project for the people suffering with anxiety or depression... or whos life is a total mess right now. As for the Department of Gamers, which has obviously died down recently, we don't know what the final fate of the Studio is. Cole has unofficially stepped down, and we've had a kind person who has added a few songs to the Studio. However, time will choose what will happen. Only time will tell. So this thing has gone long enough, though I needed to get that off my chest. Thank you for the people that have supported me through life. -darksonicz (signing off)
"As the Lights Go Out" from the Heart of an Artist album belongs to DAGames "As the Lights Go Out" song and album cover belongs to DAGames (press space) Picture: "As the Lights Go Out" Single cover picture by DAGames Lyric: Stone cold, in the middle of a circus But the lights are all on you Try to fake a smile But the curtain draws on you When the crowd begins to cheer It's a sign that the end is drawing near Presenting the world When the lights go out The tears fade, right before their very eyes But yours begin to shed Fake it for a while but the coursing darkness treads For behind each casting art Is the image of a man who's torn apart Escaping the world When the lights go out Fear not, I have descended Before you even knew I only told them my own view! The smile you see, can't comprehend it But I died too long ago So every time I start the show I drop the act and away I go Stone throws, for a friend with a message But that message failed to send Too many times I've bailed, cause the show's about to end Like an intermittent break Like a purgatory sending me to shake I walk off the stage and the lights go out You would have never believed me while smiling You would have stopped to intrigue when I'm frowning You would have helped just to shake it off But it bled me dry Maybe you're not supposed to know But would it kill to just remind yourself I'm gone? I'm broken again, as the lights go out Fear not, I have descended Before you even knew I only told them my own view! The smile you see, can't comprehend it But I died too long ago So every time I start the show I drop the act and away I go By the time you hear me cry I'll have lost you through thousands of voices All blinded by the sounds No remorse for me is found And I am not meant to be chained to the ground I have no soul Have no goal Have no promises Yet the mask is sealed away! So every time I take my leave Oh darkness, please. Oh just leave me be Holding on for life I can't let you know I am alive! Fear not, I have descended Before you even knew I only told them my own view! The smile you see, can't comprehend it But I died too long ago So every time I start the show I drop the act and away I go By the time this little number ends I'm gone And you can't cure my mind
