The Reverend Double J: Music

Been Around Long Enough

(J.J. Vicars)
Words & music by J.J. Vicars (c)2007 Gypsytattunes BMI
Bringing it back to the dark underside hinted at in the begining. Sparse guitars and menacing groove underscore the feeling of discontent, punctuated by ghostly slide guitar.
Well I've hung around long enough
I've made up my mind
And I've been around long enough
To know I'm wasting time
And I've seen a thing or two
Go passing by my way
I know I'm sinking faster every day

So don't give me no reasons
Don't give me excuses
Tell me what your point is
Tell me what the use is
Tell me how you'll make it
When you don't even try
Tell me all your secrets
While you watch me waving goodbye

It's been so long
Since I got out
And it's been a while
I've been in doubt
But some things must happen
Though I don't know why
And everything changes
Hello,goodbye

So don't give me no reasons
Don't give me excuses
Tell me what the point is
Tell me what the use is
Tell me how you'll make it
When you don't even try
Tell me all your secrets
While you watch me waving goodbye
