about

I wrote this one in basically one go without any chorus. When I went to the studio, my producer, Mike Langford, gave me some homework: Write a chorus. So I did. I wrote this one from the perspective of an older man who is looking back on his life and trying to figure out what went wrong. He wants to share his story to help you. By helping you, he has been "made right".

lyrics

VERSE:
"Make me right", is all he said as
he lay his heavy head
on the floor by the makeshift table
that held nothing but his watch.

The wood and nails that came together
have purpose as a whole
but he don't know where he should start
and all this starting's getting old, getting old.

CHORUS:
He can't give you a thing except his story
Words last longer than thought, that is their glory.
So take these and make them yours tonight,
that alone will make me right.

VERSE:
The years between then and now
have had their ups and downs.
Been heading towards the sun,
as he was told.

Never did he touch it though,
what a cruel joke to play.
So he started to start over
which brought him to today, to today.

CHORUS

VERSE:
What's the point in telling stories,
I'm writing this for me.
Though my arms are strong and able,
I lack my reason to be.

Never want to give up one thing
so that another grows.
What's the point in living three lives,
if there is nothing to show?
