about

After I found this song on my computer I played it for my daughter and she thought it was about her. Then played it for my wife and she thought it was about her. Then I played it again but I don't know who it's about.

lyrics

I made mistakes of telling you the things I don’t believe
You listened closely but you did not receive
I never really noticed as you grew cold
Your silence made me bold
I thought things were good
You thought things were bad
Now we won’t recover what we never really had
All the people on the ground
Build you up then tear you down
Bury you without a sound
Won’t someone help us

I made mistakes of telling you the things I think I get
You said that you don’t get them but it’s not over yet
I guess I never knew there was a warning in your words
So I guess you never listened and I never heard
You said folks were good I said folks were bad
Now we won’t recover what we never really had
All the people here below
Talk of things that we don’t know
And yet we never let them go
Won’t someone help us

I made mistakes oh all along the way
With folks like you with nothing more to say
Deep inside is a stone cold heart
I should have known it from the start
Plus you think that you’re good
I think we’re all bad
Now we won’t recover what we never really had
All the people have no voice
Then they take away your choice
That they aren’t you makes them rejoice
Won’t someone help us
