Description
Creepy and slow, this is a fairly basic tune with heavy (fake) guitar sounds and a lively bass line. There's a trippy middle part and I've built in a spoken word vocal layer that borrows from a poem I wrote.
Draw your own meanings, but for me this song is about having the courage to face yourself.

Lyrics
I’m nothing like this field
Empty and exposed
Bathed in light with no dark corners
Nothing can hide here
There is no sanctuary
For anything deadly
I wish I were like this field
Empty and exposed
Bathed in light with no dark corners
Where nothing can hide
Where there is no sanctuary
For anything deadly
There is no grief in this field
Nor anything ugly that scars the ground
There are no depths in which to sink
No caves in which to disappear
If creatures came they would be captured
It would be safe and things could grow
There’s a well within this field
And I am like this well
Which gives of itself
Yet also guards its gifts
You can draw a bucket
Or you can let it drop
You can drink
Or you can drown
This well holds more than water
Down in the darkness
Empty and exposed
Bathed in light with no dark corners
Nothing can hide here
There is no sanctuary
For anything deadly
I wish I were like this field
Empty and exposed
Bathed in light with no dark corners
Where nothing can hide
Where there is no sanctuary
For anything deadly
There is no grief in this field
Nor anything ugly that scars the ground
There are no depths in which to sink
No caves in which to disappear
If creatures came they would be captured
It would be safe and things could grow
There’s a well within this field
And I am like this well
Which gives of itself
Yet also guards its gifts
You can draw a bucket
Or you can let it drop
You can drink
Or you can drown
This well holds more than water
Down in the darkness
This song is hot man! I love the dreary, 'dark-alley' feel to
it. Very sweet tune. The guitar is also impressive.
