metaphorically....Swimming in one direction, but having the curent take you in another direction.
literally...working your ass off and begging and pleading to get what you desire, only to have it all be in done futilly and in vein.
A driving sound with an electric charge to it, that doesn't use a distortion pedal....and on an acoustic guitar no less!
A driving sound with an electric charge to it, that doesn't use a distortion pedal....and on an acoustic guitar no less!
Story behind the song
The feeling that, or anxiety that, all my hard work will not pay off.
Lyrics
The Years the turn, 'Round, 'Round and Around.
So much to find, in this passin' of time.
Passing by my eyes, so quickly almost blind.
After all this, nothing there we find
Except your eyes bound along the ground
No matter how I try, to walk to, or talk with you
Just to ask why, my love passes through!
(CHORUS)No Matter how our love grew
No time did we lose, so much did we muse
BUT, for What?! Ever reason you choose,
The more I plea, the farther you flea!
Lying down, up here in my room
My thoughts they drew, and around you they loom
Lying here I am swept away, kept away.
Led astray by your beauty by your grace.
By the haste of your sudden change in taste.
To leave this place lacking time and space.
Who only you I chase, seeking your embrace
Where both of us can lay and together we'll stay
Dreaming and leaning upon each other,
Growing ever stronger!
CHORUS REPEAT
But after all this time, your interest it did peak
Now I'm tired and left all so weak
Weary of the harm, of this dreary old alarm.
That times clock blears in my ear,
Daring to wake my fear.
That I cannot wind back time,
Nor back into your heart I will find
Chorus repeat
