Story Behind The Song
Recorded at the presigious 'Tree Sound Studios' in Atlanta by producer Dan Hannon. These recordings mark a significant step for Alterstate towards an edgier, more current sound.
Song Description
Verses are based on a catchy, repetitive guitar riff, and tell the story of someone who feels there is more to him than meets the eye, but he needs someone to open the door for him: 'Inside I'm climbing the walls - only you can Set Me Free'. The pre-chorus sets the chorus up for a powerful release and memorable melody, with strong harmonies and instrumentation creating a mainstream sounding modern pop/rock song.

Lyrics
You could say I'm nothing special, just a simple man
I guess I'm living every day like everybody else,
Now I'm breaking down the doors, the doors inside of me
Trying to be that someone you wanted me to be, wanted me to be
Under the face of it all, there is more than you can see
Inside I'm climbing the walls, only you can Set Me Free
You still say it's nothing special just to be myself,
It would probably be easier as anybody else
Now I'm digging to the core, the core inside of me
Trying to be everything you wanted me to be, wanted me to be
Under the face of it all, there is more than you can see
Inside I'm climbing the walls, only you can Set Me Free
Set Me Free
Would you stay if I became what you wanted to see?
Another day I wait for you to come and Set Me Free,
Set Me Free, I need you to Set Me Free
Under the face of it all, there is more than you can see
Inside I'm climbing the walls, only you can Set Me Free
Under the face of it all, there is more than you can see
Inside I'm climbing the walls, only you can Set Me Free
