Lyrics & music by Ross Allaire
"As If"
‘let loose the dream you’re harboring,’ I tell myself in vain
“I don’t care anymore,” I say without faze
scurrying away from me, like a rat from a sinking ship
but what does it say for me, that you drown while I still list
I CAN’T WAIT FOR YOU TO GET AWAY FROM ME
I CAN’T WAIT
that fantasy once dreamt has died
and been buried in an unmarked grave
all those unsent letters and photographs
are all that could be saved
and now some odd years later it still hurts to think of you,
I guess those wounds are still so fresh but not so new
I CAN’T WAIT FOR YOU TO GET AWAY FROM ME
I JUST CAN’T WAIT
recent apologies are welcome but forgiveness is not at hand,
this hurts more than you’ll ever understand
I just hope that no one ever does to you what you did to me,
Because now most people stated intentions I can’t believe
I CAN’T WAIT FOR YOU TO GET AWAY FROM ME
I JUST CAN’T WAIT
I CAN’T
these feelings have no tempo, so it’s hard to set them down
thereby imprisoning them on paper, controlling them with sound
well can I do depression justice?
or will I just screw it up, like everything that I’ve ever…
I JUST CAN’T WAIT FOR YOU TO GET AWAY FROM ME
I CAN HARDLY WAIT
I JUST CAN’T WAIT
don’t come back to me
I wouldn’t come back to me
besides I’d never go back to you
not even if you paid me to
Awsome
You and a acoustic guitar is like the perfect couple. You are an awsome song writer and singer! Love your work but this one and "Four fucking chords" are the best things you have made in my opinion. They are awsome and I have them on my Ipod! :P
thank you kindly :) share with others
Fucking A man.
I can't explain what I love about this song, all I can say is how fucking moving it is, and how fucking powerful this song song is imo
thanks :)
This speaks volumes to me
Mate... this, and your other song "Four Fucking Chords" speak volumes to me. I find them moving, powerful... and uplifting. Seriously, you need to make more of this shit! When one is in a murderous mood, like I am right now... this music seems to put everything into perspective... helps make sense of the bullshit.
I'll patiently await for you to release more of this type of music. It's so raw, so gritty... and powerful.
cool. stay tuned. stuff coming thru my mental pipeline (not yet recorded) is more acoustic-sounding... definitely a more raw sound
dude your awesome 10/10
start making tabs and people will start playing your music i know i will
A Fu****** masterpiece.
I think any true Grunge artist should sound great on acoustic, and you didn't dissapoint. Sounds like you've been through some shit with this song, none of it seems forced at all. Chord progression is really catchy. This is a very solid song considering you don't really need to add anything else in. I thought the song was gonna kind of run together seeing as how it was 6 minutes long, but you pulled through.
I don't think imma stop listening to this ever. Not even if you paid me too...
:))))!!!!
You may only use this piece for commercial purposes if your work is a web-based game or animation, otherwise you must make specific arrangements with the artist.
