From the recording Wage Peace Vol. 1: Mortal Gods
I wrote the lyrics to this song while driving from my home in the deserts of Southern Utah to the mountainous region of Orem, UT.
During this period of my life, I was learning to sing December by Neck Deep and my mind was brought back to my youth and a past love that I ended in the worst way possible - by text message on Valentines Day no less.
I felt that I owed it to this person and my past self to send healing energy and love to this point in my life.
Lyrics
I see you in my dreams, you show up from time to time
Can’t figure out what it means, but I still hope that you get by
Do you remember me? Am I ever on your mind?
*Non sono un re, ma mi matter, Corona de Rosas
(*Italian. Translation to English:
No king am I, but I’ll put on my crown of roses)
Yo! I still look at your gram
Pull up on your page but I don’t stick around
'Cause I have a limit to my creep, but it doesn’t keep me from wondering if things went down differently how it would be between you and me
Like would we be together? Man I really fucked up with you
(You know that I think of you sometimes, stoke the flames to the memory lest I forget)
Do you know that I think of you sometimes?
Do you know? D-D’you know?
Did you know that I think of you sometimes?
Did you know? D-D’you know?
I see you in my dreams, you show up from time to time
Can’t figure out what it means, but I still hope that you get by
Do you remember me? Am I ever on your mind?
Non sono un re, ma mi matter, Corona de Rosas
Yo! How I treated you was disgraceful
Text message breakup, that shit was distasteful
Left you waiting around, wondering what could have been, what went through me head I cannot now say
What went through my head I cannot now say
I hope someday you accept this as my apology
(Driving form the desert
I wrote this song on a drive
Southern Utah to Provo, I-15 I am riding, writing
Riding, writing
Riding, writing
Feel the ride)
I wonder if you’ll ever even hear this
When you knew me back then I was a naïve boy ignorant it was pure bliss.
Hell, I was beardless
I was a dick to you and I know it
Would you believe I met someone, fell in love and moved to Utah of all places?
Last I heard, you were engaged, what happened with that?
Hit me back.
Feel the Ride
