Story Behind the Song
This is a semi-autobiographical song about me and my friend Pierre during our younger struggling musician days, searching for answers. I found mine in music; he found his in a woman, who unforunately turned out to be the worst thing in his--and everyone else's--life.
Lyrics
A long time ago, I knew a guy, who wanted to fly... wanted to fly. A long time ago, I knew a guy, who thought he could fly... thought he could fly. A long time ago, I knew a guy, who wanted to fly... wanted to fly.
He is so alone, always was so alone, he is so alone... always was so alone.
He searched for truth, he stayed alone, until he got high... until he got high. He searched his soul, it sucked him dry, but the truth made him high... the truth made him high. The truth was this, don't search your soul... the truth makes you cry, truth makes you cry.
He is so alone, always was so alone, he is so alone... always was so alone.
Oh life is hard, it's oh so hard, and people don't know... people don't know. They just don't know, they make him cry, but he wants to fly... doesn't want to get high. A long time ago, I knew a guy, who thought he could fly... but he was just high.
He was so alone, always was so alone, he was so alone... always was so alone... until his found her. And she was his hell.
