about

This song is the oldest of the tracks featured on this album. It was written in July 2011 for Idle Satellites, a project that Dan and I worked on before LWE.

lyrics

amiss, i wanted more than this
but something inside
it breaks and it bends when i'm alone

i lie to you
i really try to help myself
i lie because nothing else compares

she said "why couldn't you warn me?"
a crashing wave, a storming cloud
your silent smiles ringing out
so loud
and why couldn't you show me how?
instead i lie and wait for you now

i know the one you're waiting for ain't me
but i'm the one alive
i know the way you wanted ain't this one
they say heaven holds a place for those who wait
and waste away

running in the waves is so cold tonight
exposure to the wind takes it's toll
now listen here child
i'm sowing wild oats tonight

and i'm running
i'm running and you're holding me back

if it only wasn't so cold to say
i'm on my way out

she said "why couldn't you warn me?"
i have to leave
you've seen the black spot on my soul
the mark is on me

now go hold your head up high
walk free
walk free and curse my name
it's okay
