about
One of the first songs I wrote, back in 2003. Been revamped & retouched of course! Features guest vocals by my brother, Ali, who taught me how to play guitar thus finding my purpose in life. Thanks buddy!
lyrics
"i = you + everyone"
Kids say, they will never understand
The power, of knowing what to comprehend
Who has a question? (x2)
Inside of no one (x2)
That's why they all leave (x2)
Cause nothing can be done
Lateness is the lamest excuse that they use
Teach us to reach out to you
Are you telling me? Are you telling her?
Are you telling me, because you cant go on
So long, dismissed. You're gone
(What are you selling. Who are you telling?)
One day, you'll say you're sorry
One day, you'll never know what I had to go through
Today's a completely different story
Two days gone, and what I have done?
This is not the road I paved for myself
Somewhere along the line, I lost my way and my mind
Guess we'll never know cause I'm just to blind to see
That him + you = me
(Face it, I'm in pain. Just give me one more taste, baby)
Its too bad, that you're not here. You're not hearing me.
Don't tell me maybe, but I believe that this is over
Are you telling me? Are you telling her?
Are you telling me, because you cant go on
So long, dismissed. You're gone
(What are you selling. Who are you telling?)
Its the first time you've noticed
Since we've been through this
Its too bad that you're growing up
I know that its hurting (once you go)
It feels right to keep running (no means no)
Anytime soon now.
You'll be up for air (x2)
I know that its hurting (once you go)
It feels right to keep running (no means no)
Well anytime soon now, you'll be up for air
Don't you know just how to love someone
It cant be taught so go and have some fun
You sure do have a nerve to hit and run
Don't you know, oh
You've gotta let this go. Let this go
Are you telling me? Are you telling her?
Are you telling me, because you cant go on
So long, dismissed. You're gone (you're gone)
(What are you selling. Who are you telling?)
Are you telling me or are you telling her?
Who are you telling? What are you selling?
Are you telling me or are you telling her?
(First time you've noticed, since we've been through this.
It's too bad that you're growing up)
