Don't Belong

Lyrics

Put my thoughts of laughter away You know I want to scream it You felt and tasted different today Like you didn’t really mean it, I’ve seen it All the love that I held inside me for so long All the love that you had for me has gone so wrong I don’t belong You were she, you were the truth You were me, you were my youth Hurt me so I’ll know I’m alive I can see your thoughts and your schemes I only wish you’d choose me As I choke on ashes of dreams I only wish you’d use me, confuse me, abuse me All the love that I held inside me for so long All the love that you had for me has gone so wrong I don’t belong You were she, you were the truth You were me, you were my youth Hurt me so I’ll know I’m alive

Description

Story Behind the Song: Joe's Words: Not necessarily the most depressed/depressing song in our catalog, but the one that got recorded. "Hurt me so I'll know I'm alive". How Notch and I survived our 20s is a bit of a mystery! I still very much like the atmospheric arrangement on this one.
