- Go to WWW.ADAMMONROE.COM you can find another live studio version of this on my new EP "Illusions Fade", now available at all online retailers.
Lyrics are below...
I feel your gaze over my shoulder
And I match your disappointment
You say there's nothing that I can do
But you can prevent me from trying
I can't stop thinking about this
Such a sad, sad situation
Just as we started to take off
We've fallen into accusation
I told you what I've done
Some part of you knows I'm not the devil's son
All I ask is that you consider this
In my voice you'll hear that feeling I miss
I can't believe what this turned into
What more will I have to do to convince you?
Don't you remember talking forever?
And our walk out in the cold
Getting closer and closer together
And finishing each others thoughts
I can't stop thinking about this
As you ignore ever explanation
So many times I tried to tell you
Over 3 hours of conversation
Chorus
Piano solo
I told you all that I have done
Some part of you knows I'm not the devil's son
All I ask is that you consider this
In my voice you'll hear that feeling I miss
I can't believe what this turned into
I'm telling you whatever you thought isn't true
Cause girls like you are too much to loose
What more will I have to do to convince you?
Screw American Idol. You need to be a superstar Dude! Great song, voice, lyrics, piano skills. Why aren't you famous? Somebody get this guy a record contract!!!!! GO ADAM
Come back to us Adam :(
+Bryce Olson I know, our Adam is back finally
Really dig the raw unedited unprocessed stuff you threw at us. This is sheer talent. Please continue to have your new videos in the same format. Trust me there are plenty of us here who appreciate this more as opposed to the new age multi camera shot, heavily processed content youtubers publish today. Cheers!
One of my fav songs ever
Thanks for the support and glad you're digging the EP. Hope you can make it out for some ASHES dIVIDE shows!
Adam
JonDavisFan...totally agree with you...I like to think of music as translated emotion. "holding a note" is secondary to inspiring the listener and communicating a feeling
Adam
I agree...Strings are incredibly powerful when applied to the right song. I have yet to work with a quartet, however I had a violin part written and recorded to another "Stops My Breathing" which turned out great. Can't wait to finish it. Thanks for the comment!
I love how you raise your left eyebrow when you sing.. It shows how much you're into the music... beautiful
My favorite song he has ever done.
Its Funny Ive been sending post to this guy forever to do any cover to any Staind song. Its nice to here someone feel the same way I do .. Cheers!!!!
Long Live iTunes! Just bought this song..Me happy!
Beautiful! I would play your voice/piano in my head over and over again!!!!
amazing! There arent words to describe the way this makes me feel.
Fabulous... Simply amazing! :)
Had a bit of a nostalgia trip, listening to this song again after so many years, and your covers and what not today. Decided to look up if anyone was selling 'Illusions Fade' and managed to snag a copy off of eBay. You've been an inspiration so I'm proud and glad to have some of your work in my personal collection now. Thanks for doing what you do.
Nice 👍 I appreciate the kind words 🙏🙏
Truly spectacular.........preaching from the heart is the language that everyone speaks
I feel the biggest hurdle for artists like you to get your work on that on mediums like this is that there are so many idiots making ridiculous and unpredictable videos that some, like myself, would rather stick with what they know and not take that risk. I must say that you make your covers your own and your original work is truly refreshing.
you deserve more likes...
Wow just wow... I don't mind saying because look at all of your other comments the people commenting on you who actually have taste,. man you move me.. you move them ,.keep playing keep writing please for all of us
one of my fave originals from you, you better slap this baby on a cd
everytime i hear this & waiting, i melt. i love it so much.
adams gonna be a legend. I know it. kudos bro. we were here since the beginning. good luck
laurenisfree...This song is the result of a bad decision on my part. but making mistakes are an invaluable part of the learning process. Much thanks for the comment ;)
Adam
Keep up this kind of quality and you'll be sure to tour Europe soon enough, hard work and talent pays.
I'll be sure to follow your musical steps from now on,
All the best in the future.
Adam Monroe!! You have future!!
you, album, now, period.
Your covers are phenomenal. Your original work is phenomenal. No question you are one hell of a musician and I'm buying your E.P right now :-).
Keep it up mate :-)
Rhinitas...Thanks for the props. There are major differences between the songs I cover and much my original music. Especially songs like "Convince You". I appreciate the versatility of your taste. Take care.
Adam
no all the words! breathtaking
I absolutely love your work Adam, you are a true artist. I too came across your originals after having enjoyed all of your covers and i'm not a bit disappointed that I did. Keep up the amazing work man !
brooo!!! I grow up listen this!! some of 10 years ago, your voice and feeling, such a inspiration for me as a musician!! Im solist Singer and guitarrist now, and every piano song that I had composed, I owe this to you!! Thanks for everything, and hope you comeback with a new album, fight for your dreams and your career bro! you are very talented!!! dont give up!!
Wow, so cool to hear that. I'm humbled and inspired to have played a part in motivating your creativity. Congrats for going for it and I wish you the best of luck!
I like to share his music on my Facebook :) it's amazing to me even after all these years
I'm a lover of music, and this is exactly why. I swear when I get the money I'm going to buy this track. How in the world don't you have millions of screaming fans all over this? The soul! The spirit! The unquenchable thirst to set things right that can only be felt in the synesthetic spirit through the heart-ripping, tear-jerking, emotion-inducing strings of the ivory keyed piano! I tell you what you have some serious skills. Not often do I say this, but I am truly impressed by the depth.
I saw this video many years ago and still somehow I always come back to it. It's a really great piece that I love, I get the feels of it. it's really something appart from the apc covers which I love also. 😊
Urban Glam My feelings exactly. I found it back in 2008 and every year or so I come back. Haven’t been back to it in a while and it popped in my head tonight. Then I saw your comment and had to reply :)
i cried.
this is beautiful
i hope you go far.
good luck and god bless you
Grand, absoluletly perfect. I've been on here for a year browsing videos, and your the first thing i've subscribed to. Hope to hear a lot more from you, if you ever need a show in the Netherlands message me. Keep it up!
your songs and voice are amazing!!! you are extremely talented, but more importantly, your music reaches out
beautiful too! MAGIC!
This is my second fav song on ur album. The first song on it is pure amazing, you should really make a video of it (its possible that I just haven't seen it yet though). Very good writer, The album is amazing.
been listening to this song every day for a while...ends the tension after a day of work! fantastic voice, found this through your a perfect circle stuff which is ace, especially orestes. Keep up the good work, im sure you should be sponsered by a piano/keyboard company soon as you are inspiring many people to become musical!
adam this is one of my faves that you have!!! i miss hearing from you! hope tour is going well!!!!
This song is amazing. The lyrics fit my life for many relationships now, and the music is equally beautiful and tragic.
men, you sing to nice, and your music have power, i like it to much, good luck
that's awesome son, touched me
Intense!! ... just like it should be
I agree...The demos are works in progress and still need to be finished. I don't like the guitar track on the demo version and I've been working to replace it and then include other instrumentation. I've even been considering recording "Convince You" with just piano and voice and leaving it at that. I'll figure it out when I get back into the studio and do some experimenting. Anyway, thanks for your comments!
This is an amazing song...
Thank you!
LOVE HIM!!
you're amazing! words can't describe it! and your lyric's? Uh amazing! LOVE YOU!!!!
You could have won artist of the year
Wow. The most talented musician ive seen in youtube. Thumbs up mate, hope ur gonna be huge!
I'm crazy about this song! I'm addicted! I need listen this everyday!!!! Love it! Love your voice and all about you!
I can't say enough good things about your videos
James, Yes Adam did play for Ashes Divide. I actually got a chance to see them in concert and Adam was there. It was amazing. Of course this was 4-5 years ago, so I don't know for sure if Adam still plays for Ashes Divide or not. Or even if that band is together.
i just heard your EP... im loving it. i had it for like 2 weeks now. still listening to it everyday.
any plans on doing more? congratulations on your spot with Ashes Divide! ...
Hey I appreciate the comment. It's definitely tough to get people to check out the originals when they are primarily here for the covers. Thanks for making the jump
Adam

Wow, listening to your music puts me in such a euphoric state! That was seriously some brilliant stuff, now please explain to me why noone has signed you yet?

Adam
I would buy your CD. Good luck man!
Beautiful love song! Okay, maybe I'm too romantic...
Yes I recently released an EP "illusions fade" under Godigital records.
nice voice...
@tiarraandkayli He has a Cd out, also Adam toured in 2008 playing kepboards/backup vocals for Billy Howerdel's new project Ashes Divide.
@Zegstasis. I believe he says "girls like you are unique and few". Side note: This man is a god among musicians!!!!!
Thanks man. I hear you...I'm definitely planning on droppin' the piano for a few tracks and blowing up the intensity with drums and guitars. I can only hit the keys so hard... ;)
Your exactly the type of musician i want to be...
me enamorado de ti y de tu voz
Great :))
wonderful, so sad that he died. :(
💕💕

Some part of you knows I'm not the devil's son!

your songs are amazing! you should do something with a band with some guitars and drums behind you, more rock, you have the voice for that! something like dashboard confessionnal, and you could be rock the planet...became a superstar! seriously dude... anyway you're awesome man very talented
You are very blessed, singing is just a fantastic talent to have you can cheer anyone up with one of your songs keep it up and dont let the fame get to ya :p jk
