From the Mind of Bob

What I think, what I hear, what I see

Dealing with the aftermath of a failed relationship

2021-12-16 Music Bob Ossler

And I’m the one you can never trust
Because wounds are ways to reveal us
And yeah I could have tried and devoted my life to both of us
But what a waste of my time when the world we had was yours
So break me down if it makes you feel right (so break me down)
And hate me now if it keeps you alright (so break me down)
You can break me down if it takes all your might
Because I’m so much more than all your lies

Seether - Breakdown


Relationships, romantic or otherwise, are difficult. When they deteriorate and go bad, they can leave lasting wounds that are hard to ignore. Sometimes we put our big boy/girl pants on, and just move on. Other times we may need to howl at the moon and let it all out. What’s important is the release. That’s one of the things I like about this song.

This particular Seether album, Finding Beauty In Negative Spaces, contains a plethora of fantastic lyrics. Shaun Morgan and the band write very intelligent lyrics and know how to make you think. There will be more posts from this collection of songs.
