Written about a painting by Esao Andrews titled 'The Hangover'. Subtle, huh?
Just one guy who's out to influence the world with his own brand of song.
Story behind the song
Written about a painting...
Lyrics
Your only choice beyond this point
Is to hang there or fall with the moist.
The hair lays over like the ladder we trust
To take us to heaven above.
But no one's here, oh, no one's here.
To catch you when it pulls you down
But no one's here, so what's to fear?
Because your answer is here on the ground.
It takes some time to just let go
When you've held on for years at a time.
Believe me when I tell you this
Nothing's wrong when you live forever.
What kind of world are we in now?
Where you can't hardly blend with the crowd
And you are not the one that stands in the wrong
But from the outside, it's all that you've got.
Where have you gone? Where have you gone?
Because this isn't you anymore
Where have you gone? What have you done?
As you lie there, your face to the floor.
It takes some time to just let go
When you've held on for years at a time.
Believe me when I tell you this
Nothing's wrong when you live forever.
And if you knew
If you could see
What you compromise
In yourself, it seems
You'd never again
Come close to this
But no one learns
So I sit...and wait.
