melodic modern alternative rock
Melodic acoustic rock from the heart and soul... It's what I am... Not the best vocalist or guitarist, but it's what my heart's delivering, it's the message that's what counts.

Story behind the song
I was thinking about everything that attacked me in my life and I just transcended into another mindset of someone else, someone just being around and being stood up and being tired of everything... This is the only song on the Four-EP with any acoustic guitar in it...
Lyrics
Simmer down, take a deep breath Check your watch for the time Take a minute, change your pace If you're early, noone will mind Phone rings, stop for the call The voice sounds familiar "Babe, I'm sorry, I can't make it tonight." And she hangs up on him Now he's going out, for a drive Somewhere far, away from this time He'll leave it all, but especially her Alone, to his tonic and gin Sits down, alone on his bed Crying in the undertow The time means nothing anymore He has all the time in the world Stopped for him, at his expense It's not the first time or the last "I'm tired of this, tired of her" Puts his hurt in the past "So take me, and break me And build yourself up new Take what you like that you find And make the one you want. Tell me, what you want from me And don't make me feel ashamed I've got a lot to live at a fast pace I don't like to play these games" Now he's going out, for a drive Somewhere far, away from this time He'll leave it all, but especially her Alone, to his tonic and gin "So take me, and break me And build yourself up new Take what you like that you find And make the one you want. Tell me, what you want from me And don't make me feel ashamed I've got a lot to live at a fast pace I don't like to play these games"
