Today, GRAMMY® Award-winning, multi-platinum singer-songwriter, actor, and New York Times best-selling author, COREY TAYLOR (Slipknot, Stone Sour) releases a ferocious new song, 'Post Traumatic Blues', taken from his forthcoming solo studio album, CMF2. The album is set to arrive on 15th September via Decibel Cooper/BMG.
Says Taylor:
“‘Post Traumatic Blues’ is my attempt to describe for people what it’s like to deal with PTSD. Sometimes it’s so hard for people to understand the ups and downs, the severity of the cold and numbness, that I wanted to try and build a bridge lyrically between the ones living with the disease and the ones who are trying to help them.”
“Post Traumatic Blues” 2nd verse lyrics:
“Who’s afraid of a king in a castle? Another dirty face on a $100 bill
I’ll take - what I thought - I could never - impossibly get
I’m living like I’m losing a bet - don’t worry, the future is here
Another contemplation to ration for over the years
I’m crossing your lines, pushing my way - DELIBERATE
Borrow your time, take me away - I’M INTO IT
Did you borrow your time? ONE LAST TIME”
