I wrote more than twenty break up songs after moving to Chicago, but all of them felt to insincere, or untrue. This is the only one that feels okay to me. I wanted it to have an optimistic end, because I want to be able to find closure with that relationship in real life. In a way, I wrote the last few phrases for myself. sigh.
lyrics
the winter mornings in our bed,
hearing the sound, the sound of your breath
all of the time we had is wasted, wasted
the effort that wwe both put in,
i threw away on just a whim,
all of the time we had is wasted, wasted
i thought that we would feel good forever,
but the feeligns didnt last that long
i thought that i would feel this good forever and ever
but all that time was wasted all along.
i asked you to accept,
who i was and what i wanted
all of the time we had is wasted, wasted
i asked if you were okay,
as i sent you on your way,
all of the time we had is wasted, wasted
maybe its not wasted if we both learned something
maybe its not wasted if it was another step
maybe its not wasted if were both moving forward
maybe you werent wasted on me after
pigeon pit as a band has single-handedly changed my life. no other band has had me elated and crying my heart out so much at the same time. seeing them live may have changed me as a person. so much love <3 exodus_of_angels
