All Of My Might

from Another Other Dorset by The Roland High Life

/

about

We accidentally turned a piano waltz love song into a Teenage Fan Club tune. No regrets.

lyrics

There’s a long winding road and a set of red lights
And I follow them daily, they fill up my eyes
My vision is wasted, I feel like I’d rather be blind
It leads to a clear blue sky and a crisp ocean breeze
And a heavy glass door that keeps you from me
A mountain of stone that they built up to keep me inside

I love you so much and I hate it with all of my might

There’s a white piece of paper I’m handed each week
And although I can read it, don’t know what it means
But they tell me that that’s what I need to survive
Well the lights and the stone and the paper I don’t need
They banded together, they built a machine
It’s slowly consuming me, taking up all of my time

I love you so much and I hate it with all of my might

I put three thousand miles in between you and me
and you packed up and disappeared into the trees
now I wouldn’t recognize who’s on the end of the line
And we speak too infrequently for my taste
and we only make time when we have time to waste
I can’t explain why you seem to keep slipping my mind

Well I love you so much and I hate it with all of my might

We spent eight years together in lock, step, and stride
And then two roads diverged and we chose different sides
Now I only hear from you Christmas, and when someone dies
But I love you so much and I hate it with all of my might

There’s a handful of people I’ll need in the end
That’s my lover, my mother, and my oldest friend
And now I see the three of you somehow have been stripped from my side
But I love you so much and I hate with all of my might

I hate it so much and I love you
