    An up tempo song about the fear of being depended upon by others and of being exploited.
    Credits: Bass: Jonathan Hughes; Guitars, Vocals, Programming: Michael Harnick. Engineered and Produced by Michael Harnick

    Story Behind the Song
    The song is about feeling exploited and depended upon. It was recorded on a Boss BR-8 and mixed using Cubase VST on an iMac G4. The writing of the song was fairly quick. The lyrics took about 30 minutes and the music took another 30 or so minutes for the rhythm parts.

    Lyrics
    All Around Here

    I feel a weight on my shoulders
    It's not my head, it's not a crown
    It's just the burden of the baggage
    Everyone else puts down
    I'll take you to your destination
    With more weight on my back
    I'm not a martyr, not a saint
    But there are things that you don't have to ask

    Oh no, they're getting to know my name
    All around here
    Achievement only brings sorrow
    They'll want more tomorrow
    That's my biggest fear
    All around here
    All around here

    I'm not infallible
    But I look pretty good from where you sit
    I make my share of mistakes
    And I work too hard to make up for it
    But if I don't let you down
    You might start to rely on me
    That's something I never could handle
    There's too much pressure with dependency

    Oh no, they're getting to know my name...

    Everything I say
    Should not be taken as gospel
    I'm just feeling my way
    Like everyone else is
    I'm not perfect
    Nor have I claimed to be
    I'm only a person
    Flesh and bone and fallacy

    Oh no, they're getting to know my name...
