Story behind the song
Sometimes in a relationship you only realize later on that you were also fighting that person's past baggage.
I did a quick demo and Dave went to town doing all of the guitars and bass. I did the vocals and the drums.
Lyrics
1. Maybe it was my inexperience
Or it could have been denial
So eager to build a future
That I couldnt open my eyes
You were there in the moment
But you were bound to the past
Lost or confused, without a friend
Or burned by a sudden end
But now it just tugs on my mind
Something I couldnt see at the time
2. Nearly drowning in the present
For the decisions in the past
Like a flash flood of regrets
The tide comes in so fast
Rationalizing our hidden fears
And the subtle over reaction
I tried to write it all down
But the words were redirected
2. Dont get me wrong
We all have our baggage
Like a ball and chain
We drag forward over and over
First the bleeding then the scar
Then the pain and the lonely hours
That we try so hard to hide
When its obvious, we barely survived
