about

I wrote this song after hearing the conversations of people on the streets where I live. All they say to eachother are automatic things like "how are you?" and "weather's nice", when we really should be interacting on a greater level. We all want to be heard, to be connected and to be relevant but perhaps it's important to ask questions that might at first seem taboo.

lyrics

Ask me something more than "how are you?"
Trust me, and I swear I'll trust you too
Feel me through the essence of my words
Hear me, and all those pretty birds

I don't want you (you) to run
I don't want you (you) to run

Help me, 'cause I can't really help myself
Judge me on my worth and not my wealth
Own me, but please own your mistakes too
Realize that the world is brighter with you

'Cause I don't want you (you) to run,
'Cause I don't want you (you) to run
No I don't want you (you) to run
No I don't want you, you

Well I don't know if my thoughts are right
or if I'm stuck in something greater than me
Like a cathedral in the sea
and I can feel that in this life
there's something greater than the everlasting debt collecter
We are the Gods waiting to be

Pass me on the wrong side of the road,
Tell me all of the secrets that you hold
Heal me with the rapture of your song
Hold me, and right all these silly wrongs

'Cause I don't want you (you) to run,
No I don't want you (you) to run
No I don't want you (you) to run
No I don't want you (you) to run
