  • Your talent outshines all that I could ever do or say
    and me and my jealousy, I stole your songs and pass them off as my own
    As much as I would like for it not to show
    you can smell the stink on my breath and in my clothes, it's so obvious
    oh if I could only be half the things you write about in your songs
    if I could only mean half as much to anyone
    and in my arrogance I write pages of anger hate and spite
    all of the reasons I have to trust... absolutley no one
    today I heard you on my stereo and it shamed me,
    yes it shamed me to think that I could be so unoriginal
    oh if I could only be half the genius that you are
    to feel such honest want, to show love
    I would show you love
    I would show you love
    I would show you love
    oh if I could only feel half as resolute in my beliefs,
    if I could only sing with such bravery
    I can not explain how much you mean to me
    without your words, I would be lost.

    actually, this song is about Erin Toby from the band Abe Froman. This song is repayment for one Toby wrote about Gabel.

    Music is not a fucking quiz show. Uuuh i know it, no i know it. Nooo i know what he's singing about!
    Form a band and write songs-then you know what the song is about. Simple

    I think its him as Laura singing to Tom... but we have our own opinions, mine is just the right answer :)

    This song is actually about me, but I can't go into it because the rest is obviously personal.

    • @adamrodriguez8415
      @adamrodriguez8415 6 років тому

      GitarreFuhrer wait Dylan still comes on the radio yeah it's interesting and hard to figure it out but it's his his insides we are not to judge. Just lucky he shares her soul. Make it what u want bit no one's his therapist

  • @serenity2364
    @serenity2364 13 років тому

    Who is this song about?

    • @adamrodriguez8415
      @adamrodriguez8415 6 років тому

      He's referring to his subconscious and soul it his living expectations for the human nature to self loath. It couldn't be put better I feel this way with my artistic ability everyday.

    • @adamrodriguez8415
      @adamrodriguez8415 6 років тому

      Just confusion there, snowflake. Where's your fucking safety pin anyways??

  • @DorianUrsuul
    @DorianUrsuul 12 років тому

    Guy, you're being unnecessarily hostile. Let's keep this unlike other youtube videos out of respect for Tom Gabel. k?

    • @blackmamba532
      @blackmamba532 5 років тому

      IDK who it's supposed to be about. I think that's the point that it matters to Gabel and that's that. Unnecessarily hostile...hmmm. That would include a lot of the use of the word FUCK, involved. OR I guess that guy mentioning his lil' penile in the convo. WHOA! That was really fucking inappropriate for a general audience to have to be subjected to! I mean come on, there's fucking 12 yr olds probably on here past their bedtimes!!
