I kinda sorta improvised the instrumental. After I had recorded two guitars, one drum loop, one keyboard, one bass, and one live drum track, I realized I needed more tracks to finish the song. After mixing this basic instrumental, I loaded it onto the 8-track, where I recorded two vocals and two more guitars...and I think something else, but I don't remember what. Anyway, this is the only time a Bloomshock song has taken more than 8 tracks to do. Yay.
lyrics
I'd be lying if I said you didn't
and you were simply misunderstood
but we all know the truth now
and you can't try anymore
make yourself look good
nothing will change
my opinions of you remain the same
as they did the last time
back-stabbing 2x4
on wheels
you lied to your friends
and cried to your family
what nice response
could you really expect from me?
bullshit your friends
bullshit your family
I'm not listening
to what you need to tell me
you've ostracized yourself
and not for no reason
a different tactic every season
well now you're on your own
have fun being alone
you'd be lying if you started up again
trying to defend yourself
fool me once, I'm unamused
what makes you believe I'd fall for two?
well you know I would, but I'm not taking chances
with the middle-aged mom at the high school dances
still believes in fairy tale romances
and I won't give in to your impure advances
