about

Written in Ohio. This is one of the oldest Black Owl songs, only recently crafted for release. Features the guitar solos and gravitas of founding Owl Mike Brewer.

lyrics

You're so meticulous - & I'm fashion challenged.
You look like diamonds - and I smell like smoke.
You're wearing linen - & I'm wearing thin.
You're eyes cut through me - I'm just a joke

When you part the ocean - I fall on the shipwrecks
You laugh out loud - when you see me cry.
But I'll rise above it - with lungs full of water
I'll swim to the surface - for one more try.

Now you didn't know me. - You didn't love me.
I'm such a demon. - Destroying your mind.
OH, you're so above it. - It's all so futile
whoever said that - true love is blind.

Oh - carry me up to - the places that we knew
before I was tired - before it was through
when you were meticulous - and I was a demon
and you saw potential - and I saw it too.
