2010 version! i changed the drum tracks and added a few more vocal tracks and rerecorded the whole thing... i know the end gets a little shaky and i'll end up redoing this again sometime in the future, but i really am happy with how this came out.

the lyrics were written by me. the music was composed by me.


follow along;

i was so far gone
until you looked my way
i knew all along
that you would never stay

so why did i think
it would be different this time around
this time around

this time around you told me you had changed
but all i saw were lies instead
this time around you told me you'd take this chance
to show me you cared
this time around

sunsets keep me warm
when you are not around
they're all i have left
they're all i'll ever know

so why did i stay
when i knew that it would be the same
this time around

this time around you told me lies again
but i couldn't see through your smiles
(i know you'll regret what you did in the end --)
this time around i thought you would love me for real
(-- i thought you'd love me but you broke me down)
but instead you just broke me down
this time around
(this time around)

this time around you said 'hello', i walked right by
this time around you were confused, i did not cry
this time i was the one to make the change
this time around you could not say anything

this time around i stood on my own two feet
even when you tried to push me down
this time around you thought you could win me again
but instead i just showed you how
this time around

it is my turn, now.


thanks for listening! please don't be rude.
