lyrics

Missiles launched
Target in sight
You blew up my heart
I put up a fight
Yeah I suppose
You took me out
Everything was assured
Until everything was in doubt
Now I'm back on my own
Me and my history
They don't teach it in class
But you can take it from me

It feels like time moves real slow
When you're dying to know

If you love someone
You gotta let them go
But you're gonna be dying to know
Where they are in a year
If they think about you
If there's anything you can do

And it's Goddamn hard to live
If you're dying to know

Why can't I figure it out
Why can't I just move on
It's been over a year
Since my best friend has gone
She was the greatest era
Of this tired scene
Why do I try to defect
Why do I sabotage me
I wish words could explain
What I'd say to her now
But they were never enough
Be them insults or vows

It feels like time moves real slow
When you're dying to know

If you love someone
You gotta let them go
But you're gonna be dying to know
Where they are in a year
If they've met someone new
Is there anything you can do

And it's Goddamn hard to live
If you're dying to know

about

Al Grantham Toronto, Ontario

Drawing equally on the lyrical density of 60s folk, the irreverence of punk-rock and the experimental leanings of the alternative and anti movements, Al Grantham weaves a unique tapestry of music and words.
