about

We’re Byrd’s tragic’s and this song is really inspired by them. It’s about a relationship between two people where one doesn’t understand the other. It’s hard to get past things that have happened once the well has been poisoned. It’s portrays not being able to change when you know you really should. When we were in the studio working with Dom Mariani we got chatting about the middle 8 echoing The Byrd’s “8 Miles High, it took a long time to nail it and it’s a real standout part on the album. Backwards 12 string and a brilliantly written chords structure to allow it to twist and turn like it does.

lyrics

He’s got his ways she can’t understand
Why you’re not there to hold his hand
His mind slips away like sand
You’re the missing piece of where it lands
These things don’t go away
The damage is done can’t find a way
These things don’t go away
You’re still singing that same old song
You’ve been saying this for too long
It feels good but you know it’s wrong
Could you, would you
He’s got his ways she can’t understand
Why you’re not there to hold his hand
His mind slips away like sand
You’re the missing piece of where it lands
These things don’t go away
The damage is done can’t find a way
These things don’t go away
You’re still singing that same old song
You’ve been saying this for too long
It feels good but you know it’s wrong
You’re still singing that same old song
Still singing that same old song
You’ve been saying this for too long
It feels good but you know it’s wrong
Could you, would you
Still singing that same old song
You’ve been saying this for too long it feels good but you know it’s wrong
Could you, would you
These things don’t go away
These things don’t go away
The damage is done can’t find a way
These things don’t go away
These things don’t go away
The damage is done can’t find a way
These things don’t go away
These things don’t go away
The damage is done can’t find a way
Could you, would you
