Backseat Goodbye | BLOG - The Great Unknown Lyrics.

November 22, 2009

This coming Friday, November 27th, I’ll be debuting the full version of “The Great Unknown”, the first single from my upcoming new EP, The Wonder. So, I thought I’d go ahead and share the full lyrics to the song with you all now…
Here you go:

The Great Unknown
So what, you’ve got a lot of nerve, don’t you? Wrapped up in a silhouette of light. I think I heard you say “The world is ending.” Guess not, ‘cause we’re both still alive. Do you remember when September was living? Yeah, the heart of life was still good to go. No one could touch us. We were living a dream, and we liked our music acoustic, pretty, and slow. I’m through trying to like the lightning. Something’s gone, but finally I can see. You might be my last chance at a good thing. Bring back the way they looked at us when we picked up guitars and learned to cuss. This is our year, we can do what we want. Making history no one will see in a parking lot. Sometimes I make a list of the things I don’t get right, a complicated dream of the scenes my mind made up. Did you lie when you said you missed me? Let’s all drop this wish somehow. I’ll be fine, I promise. I’m through trying to like the lightning. Something’s gone, but finally I can see you’re a good thing. You might be my last chance at a good thing. You might be my last chance.

Be sure to catch the debut of the full version of the song this Friday, the 27th
