What Ever Lyrics
Disaster strikes
I try to write
Describe the things I hold inside
This pride of mine still keeps me distant
Disorder looms above this room
I'm trapped inside this silent tomb
I'm trying to get my mind off resistance
What ever I say, what ever I write, what ever I do,
I'm not getting through
Destruction's all surrounds my home
My future seems to stay unknown
All alone in need of some assistance
What ever I say, what ever I write, what ever I do,
I'm not getting through
What ever I say, what ever I write, what ever I do,
I'm not getting through to you
Oh
Here comes the fear again
Walls are closing in
Feels like I'm choking
Oh
Can't find the words to say
Drowning in this pain
Smoke fills the air
What ever I say, what ever I write, what ever I do,
I'm not getting through
Oh
What ever I say, what ever I write, what ever I do,
I'm not getting through to you
Oh
Here comes the fear again
Walls are closing in
Smoke fills the air
I try to write
Describe the things I hold inside
This pride of mine still keeps me distant
Disorder looms above this room
I'm trapped inside this silent tomb
I'm trying to get my mind off resistance
I'm not getting through
My future seems to stay unknown
All alone in need of some assistance
I'm not getting through
I'm not getting through to you
Here comes the fear again
Walls are closing in
Feels like I'm choking
Can't find the words to say
Drowning in this pain
Smoke fills the air
I'm not getting through
What ever I say, what ever I write, what ever I do,
I'm not getting through to you
Here comes the fear again
Walls are closing in
Smoke fills the air

This song is about the struggles and anguish of the inability to reach someone through lyrics.
"Disaster strikes, I try to write, describe the things I hold inside..." He wants to really open up and say what's on his mind and get a few things off his chest but he has 'writer's block' and feels like something is holding him back.
"My future seems to stay unknown, all alone in need of some assistance" He doesn't know whether songwriting and music could be a lifetime thing for him as it's difficult to describe exactly how he feels. He needs assistance to help himself understand why he can't open up to someone. OR it could mean in a love-and-relationship sense; if he can't talk properly to this person then their future is unknown together.
"Here comes the fear again, walls are closing in, smoke fills the air" Quite simply, he's panicking over the situation.
"What ever I say, what ever I write, what ever I do, I'm not getting through to you" People, or one person in particular, aren't understanding him properly. He doesn't know exactly how to communicate to them to make them comprehend something.
