Story Behind the Song
Love, hate, risk and reward (or a crash in a big ball of flames. Why does loving someone have to hurt so damn much. Angst ... you want angst? Well then have a listen and enjoy. Hard, throwback rock tune with almost as much angst as guitars.
Some of my friend's say I have issues. Well actually, my issues have issues.
Lyrics
All I Gave You (you took away)
Verse1
Lost and wandering, a wasted youth.
Couldn't tell the diference, between lies and the truth.
Enter the picture, the vision of you.
And the promise of giving, all that I am, and I do.
Verse2
That was months ago, and the fantasies faded.
My soul lays empty, eyes open and jaded.
Reality bites, so get a life, who's to say who's wrong or right.
When we fight I know you win, but now that means nothing..
Chorus
All I gave you, You took away.
Saving it up, for another day.
When the tears fall, you’ll take them too.
You took away, all I gave you.
Verse3
Its a two way street, when two hands meet.
Don't pick-up the glass, if you don't have enough class.
Just taking it in, its a sin, and not a game you can win.
The mission bells chime, and all the cars get in line.
Chorus
All I gave you, You took away.
Saving it up, for another day.
When the tears fall, you'll take them too.
You took away, all I gave you.
Bridge
Hey I know its true, you never asked me to love you.
But I did my part, I gave to you from my heart.
So I'm the fool, whho always play by the rules.
And when those rules are broken, the truth can be spoken.
Chorus
Chorus
All I gave you, You took away.
You saved it up, for a rainy day.
When my heart breaks, its yours too.
You took away, all I gave you.
