    LYRICS
    We lay on our backs out on the front yard
    Holding your right hand, I say life’s been so hard
    The shade of the tree we planted
    It grew strong with roots and branches
    But it’s just not ours anymore
    We build these walls high, they blend into the sky
    Thick skin and bones defend us from outside
    The way we lost it all, I think it made you strong
    But I don’t feel that anymore
    I feel nothing at all, yeah I trip and I fall
    Running straight into walls while you’re suffering withdrawals
    When will I ever get a better hand?
    I am losing my hope and it hurts in my throat
    Have my back to the coast at the end of my rope
    Oh, will I ever be a better man?
    Am I meant to be alone?
    We lay on our backs on the hood of my car
    Holding my right hand, you point out the North Star
    Show me the way ahead, guide me with light I said
    Cause I can’t see straight anymore
    Everyone left me all at once then
    Honestly, I couldn’t even blame them
    I’ve been a shitty friend
    I don’t know where you went
    I just can’t handle any more
    I feel nothing at all, yeah I trip and I fall
    Running straight into walls while you’re suffering withdrawals
    When will I ever get a better hand?
    I am losing my hope and it hurts in my throat
    Have my back to the coast at the end of my rope
    Oh, will I ever be a better man?
    Am I meant to be alone?

    My wife who was 25 weeks pregnant with my daughter passed away 6 months. Lost both of them in the emergency room. This song hits home every time I hear it. 😢

      Agree 100% the drums just take away from the guitars and gives it an upbeat feel when thats not what this song is about

  • @iDoAirGuitar
    @iDoAirGuitar 9 років тому +1

    I love both versions, but I actually feel like the drums add a little something. The live acoustic feels just like that, which isn't a bad thing. But they give this version a bit more of a polished feel.

  • @mikeygarcia72
    @mikeygarcia72 10 років тому +2

    I prefer the live version but i kinda see what they were trying to do. The drums are just to compliment the song. Was it necessary? No. Is it still a good song? Yes.

    the original live acoustic was better. I feel like you guys pushed this band into adding the drums. no offense but a lot of you major record label ppl do this. the drums are silly and ridiculous. you should've left the song as is

    • @piisamidelasami
      @piisamidelasami 10 років тому +2

      yeah I agree about the drums. also the bassline is way off imo. but as for the other part, i'm quite sure epitaph didn't push them to having drums here. The band just propably wanted to differentiate the two versions, and as Anthony also plays drums it feels quite natural for them to add them in their songs.

    • @JakeGallon
      @JakeGallon 10 років тому +1

      Sadly you are right man, the drums are just a no no no :(

    • @ScreamingLanger
      @ScreamingLanger 10 років тому +2

      I don´t think so. It´s cool the difference between first part, which we can hear only the guitars, and the second which we aprecciate the introduction of the drums. It gives strenght to the song, and makes it better in my opinion than the only acoustic version.

    • @ScreamingLanger
      @ScreamingLanger 10 років тому

      Besides, the fact bands add another instruments like drums on their acoustic songs it doesn´t mean that it worst if the song is great. People lately suck criticizing the band's sounds when is similar than other bands. Enyoy the music and the job of the musicians.

      ***** We would never push an artist to do anything. This Wild Life made the record with their producer exactly as they wanted to before we signed them. I agree that the live version is great too so I'm glad they decided to include it as a bonus track but I do love the full studio arrangement.
