All I Ever Wanted
| I rarely write songs one at a time; they come in groups of 3-6. Often I spend a lot of time working on one, and it seems impossible, but once it’s done, a bunch more flow out quite easily. This was not exactly easy to write, but 2 songs came out quite easily once it was done, including When I Was Blue. It started out just with acoustic guitar, and eventually morphed into the chugging, dance monster that it is now. The song is about wanting to make someone happy, but not feeling like anything you can do is good enough.-JJ *** Born, it seems, already facing yesterday Taught by life to always greet the world afraid No one ever told me that the fight would last so long Just to understand that love would always turn out wrong And the path I’ve chosen is the one from which you fly Hope is lost and bleeding in the aftermath And the path I’ve chosen is the one from which you fly And the winds of change have never felt so strong before |
