    Story Behind the Song
    This is the first song off of "Favours in the Way of Thinking". This song is birthed from the same place that a lot of the songs from this record are, which is me breaking up with my girlfriend and how it's affected me. Sometimes you feel strong, sometimes you feel weak. That's kind of what this song is all about. Just trying to figure out some way to stay sane when you're suddenly all alone. I wrote this song in my bedroom after a conversation with my ex-girlfriend. It wasn't particularly pleasant. Some of it was written later, actually, but most of what the song is now was written after that conversation. As far as recording, I did that here at home with my computer and one microphone. As all the songs will be.

    Lyrics
    And I count the days
    Since I felt like a real human being
    And I split the manes
    Of the lions nipping at my heels
    Life shows no mercy
    Just like you
    You know what hurts me
    But, you couldn't see it through

    And I curse my ways
    As it seems that I've put us where we are
    And inside this haze
    I've widened the fracture in my heart
    Can you redeem me?
    Don't be this cruel
    See all the good things
    But, you couldn't see those, too

    Awake, and I'm sober
    My mind can't ignore her
    The walls just can't hold up
    And I'm losing you
    I'll take all that you've done
    Remind you you're the one
    All yours, all the battles won
    And I'm losing you

    I hoped that you would see
    All the things you've done to me
    I hoped against all that I've hoped
    I prayed that you would be
    All the things I've sought to see
    I prayed with knees upon the coals
    I dreamed of love so true
    All the time I never knew
    I dreamed, but was it all a dream?
    I'll cave to what you need
    All the while my heart will bleed
    I'll cave, to map the depths of love

    A note in the chorus
    Of a choir of angels
    Was especially sung for us
    Could you not hear it?
    Feel the music within you?
    As you casually fell from grace
    My body's a temple
    And my mind is a prison
    I'm enslaved by my own regret
    Could you not help me?
    See the end of the Earth with me?
    And now I'm supposed to forget

    You know I'd forgive you
    For your big mistake

    Awake, and I'm sober
    My mind can't ignore her
    The walls just can't hold up
    And I'm losing you
    I'll take all that you've done
    Remind you you're the one
    All yours, all the battles won
    And I'm losing you
    And I'm losing you
