That means you

Someone once wrote that posting lyrics is useless, as readers will never be able to fully empathise with the writer on what the lyrics mean to them. True. That doesn’t detract from the fact that I don’t give a shit and will post lyrics anyway.
See what you can read into them;

I don’t know you
And you don’t know the half of it
I had a starring role
I was the bad guy who walked out
They said be careful where you aim
‘Cause where you aim you just might hit
You can hold onto something so tight
You’ve already lost it
Dragging me down
That’s not the way it used to be
You can’t even remember
What I’m trying to forget

It was a dirty day
Dirty day

You’re looking for explanations
I don’t even understand
If you need someone to blame
Throw a rock in the air
You’ll hit someone guilty

From father to son
In one life has begun
A work that’s never done
Father to son

And love…it won’t last kissin’ time
And love…it won’t last kissin’ time
And love…it won’t last kissin’ time

Get it right
There’s no blood thicker than ink
Hear what I say
Nothing’s simple as you think

Wake up
Some things you can’t get around
I’m in you
More so when they put me in the ground

These days, days, days run away like horses over the hill

Never was much for U2, but as a fellow diarist who also posts entrys with lyrics, far be it from me to rain on someone elses parade. How come folks in the UK and Australia spell words like Color, Humor, and favor, with u’s in em? Help this bloody american git figure it out, will ya?
