Default Anchor (Cut Off)

This is an alternative/rock song. When I sing this to myself the melodies/instrumental of Kasabian's 'Julia And The Mothman' come to mind. I'd give the YouTube link but don't want it to be misunderstood as advertising..
Anyway, any feedback, constructive criticism is greatly valued!
If you want me to check out one of your songs, leave a link to your thread and i'll try to get back to you soon.


Anchor (Cut Off)

Cloaked in layers of negative energy,
You heart is heard or seen by nobody,
Your third eye – impaired by trauma
Sees the world as only flat,
Insidiously scaffolded by stories,
You’re beguiled (cheated/deceived/hypnotised) by fantasists,
Too sure that they feed you control,
But your firm grasp severs your hand (leavin’ you jaded)

Gotta feel like i’m gettin better,
Branching‘away from any dead roots,
You need to realise.. I’ve realised
You’re another anchor dragging me down,
So i cut off,
Cut off,
Cut off,
Cos you’re another anchor dragging me down

I know that you don’t even know the half of it
bubbles boiling at the surface of the water
Iceberg of a problem
Don’t want to lose other links when i gain the loss of you but..

Gotta feel like i’m gettin better,
Branching‘away from any dead roots,
You need to realise.. I’ve realised
You’re another anchor dragging me down,
So i cut off,
Cut off,
Cut off,
Cos you’re another anchor dragging me down
