    Story Behind the Song
    This one came out of nowhere. I mean, picture this. You're sitting in your garage (for those of you who don't have garages, picture yourself surrounded by walls, one faint incandescent bulb above you, and a roll-up door that requires a pulling motion to open it,) and you decide to start rockin out on your guitar. Suddenly, you just start playing chords you love, and you find yourself singing a melody that you've never heard before. You like it. You like it so much that it's almost a part of you. That what this song felt like when I wrote it. It was incredibly tough hitting the high harmony in the end part of the song, might I add. This one took a whopping 3 and a half hours to record. A record for me.

    Lyrics
    The sun was down, and there you were
    Right there in my eyes
    Always watching, willing me
    Right there in my eyes
    And you don't see, but I can be the same
    Take me by the hand and guide all of my ways
    All of my ways

    The wind has passed, and I still feel
    everything I was
    loving nothing all at once
    everything I was
    But you tell me, I can be like you
    To take the blame and hide my pride
    I can be like you


    -----------Chorus-----------------

    And it's takin' too much time
    To be livin' this brief life
    All I wanted was your strength and mercy
    Right there in your eyes
    And I need a second chance
    To be everything you want
    Holding on to strength and mercy
    Right there in your eyes

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^Bridge^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    I'm burnin' up, my life is done
    I can't go on like this
    I leave it all behind
