All Around

All Around

I am not the hand you hold
I am the shoulder you cry on
I am not a setting moon
I am your rising sun
The wars have been fought
And all we’ve been taught
Got us nowhere which
Is where we belong

And I set off a false alarm
Knowing it would do you harm
And although I apologize
I just can’t sympathize
And it’s all still spinning
To another eternal end
And I’m not the love you lost
I am just a lost cause

You claim you’re a martyr
And you’re still on the market
And you will sell your soul
Just to fill that hole
As the shadows consume
Our lives will resume
Though I won’t help build your tomb
Doesn’t mean I won’t stop it

I just thought you should know
If things get to rough
You can bail
You can just let go
I am your safety net
But not your trampoline
Juts because I will catch you
Doesn’t mean I can bounce you back

I will watch your cycle
Until you break it yourself
I’ll still be liable
For your own living hell
And though I admit my love
I still don’t know what it means


Another song my band wrote
Life reveals what is dealt through seasons
Circle comes around each time

  • Oh, and I have gotten shit about this song being similar to Audioslaves "I am the Highway" but I swear that I wrote this a long time ago, a couple years before audioslave released a cd. If anything, they stole it from me.........

    This song is a love song to someone who, unfortunately, circumsatances outside of OUR control prevented us from being together, but this was to let her know I would always be there for her and all that mushy shit. And it referenced some of the more difficult times as well.............
