FALLING

"You've Gone Far from My Path"

This song was pure improvisation. It truly is a beautiful song that has an answer in its last part. It was the most fun song to compose on the album.

You lie to yourself about a reality and emotional stability that isn't real. You continue to be naive and ungrateful. You want everyone's attention and validation.

You think you own the truth and idealize others.

You played with me and used me. I was just a guinea pig for you.

What I feel can't be hidden. I still love you. I need you.
