Where I Don't Belong
-written by Will Hall
-appears on Autumn (1998)
THE STORY:
Recorded on a chilly and dry Autumn evening. Dead leaves crunching under combat boots while we snuck studio time in a impersonal and unwelcoming basement. My excema was at its worst and between vocal takes I’d sneak away to a bathroom and itch itch itch until the floor and my hands were covered in blood. I never told anyone at the time…just how in pain I was. This song was written by my friend Will. I didn’t have to speak of my trouble he said it for me.
THE LYRICS:
Sometimes seasons feel so long
Sometimes I feel I don't belong
Sometimes I wonder if I'm wrong
Can I not just go on?I have a feeling i don't know
I didn't know where i should go
There's times I just wanna be alone
Find out some things on my ownChorus:
And everyday just goes on
Sometimes it all feels so wrong
I guess I knew it a along
There's places where I just
Where I just don't belongSometimes the truth is hard to find
And when you do it is unkind
Well I guess I just left it all behind
Try again some other timeI thought I'd leave the past behind
But it won't seem to leave my mind
Now I don't notice what I find
But I know I've got to try.
