Sunday's Songbird ... Changing

Posted by meli on Sunday, April 24, 2011 in songbird | No comments

I know I've been scarce with the Sunday's Songbird posts lately (or any posts at all for that matter, lol), buuuuuut ... their new album is being released on Tuesday; how could I NOT highlight a little Airborne Toxic Event for you all!

I have to say, these guys have grown ultra popular over the last couple of years; making me both happy and sad. Happy, because of course it's good for them; Sad, because I liked having them all to myself in a very sniffle, my band is growing up, kind of way!

Ahh, change ... bittersweet, right?



Changing ~The Airborne Toxic Event
All these buckets of rain,
I've heard enough about.
You say that I lied.
I am a gentleman.
Didn't I ask for a place I could stay?
What were we both thinking?
The next part just got in the way.
You were just always talking about changing, changing.
What if I was the same then, same then?
The same I always was.

All these things that you say,
like i'll forget about,
the mind-numbing games that we play.
I am a gentleman.
Didn't I pay for every laugh every dime,
every bit every time and then you feed me some line.
I won't hear one more word about changing, changing.
Guess what I am the same man, same man.
Same man I always was.

Days pass turn into weeks,
when we don't even speak.
We just lay wide awake.
I pretend I'm asleep,
and you come home alone,
and you're checking your phone,
and you're looking at me,
like I'm something you own.

All these buckets of rain,
I've heard enough about.
You say I never try.
I am a gentleman.
Didn't I answer every time that you call,
pick you up when you fall,
but you never hear me at all.
You were just always talking about changing, changing.
Guess what I am the same man, same man.

Changing, changing.
Guess what I am the same man, same man.

Changing, changing.
Guess what I am the same man, same man.
