lyrics

Old songs I wrote when I was 17 about my friends and falling in love with girls, I can’t recall those feelings anymore, it’s been too long since those days I’m afraid.

Since then I’ve been in a lot pain, my mind’s been racing like a hurricane. I’m a lot like you, though you might like to think that we’re night and day.

Good friends, I’d like to tell them how I really feel but then they’d know just how lonesome I really am. Heartbreak has taught me not to trust no one, so instead I reluctantly sing.

I used to tell myself “oh don’t it feel so good to put it in a song? To stretch those words out long?” But I don’t know if I have it in me still,

to make those records sell
to make that nylon sing
to let that feedback drone
to have my fingers bleed
to scream until I’m faint
to get lost in the song
to tear my hair out thin

But it’s never done much to kill the pain, after all this time I still feel much the same. Only now She’s left me and it’s Her hand I want to hold when I’m feeling so blue.
