lyrics
nothing could be more pointless
than trying to talk to you
when i can’t change your mind
but i couldn’t see a choice left
’cept trying to sleep this off
and I tried that once tonight
i know you’re not in the wrong
yeah that’s the greatest pill of all
you know if i had right on my side
i’d show up every night
i’d never stop trying
i never took a moment
with everything you said
to try to see your side
you gave me a dot, a line, a graph
a chart, a figure and a map
but i never saw the light
i know....
so maybe this wasn’t pointless
’cause i finally understand
what you told me all along
and i’m glad i came across you
crashed in to your rocks
that’s where that boat belonged
than trying to talk to you
when i can’t change your mind
but i couldn’t see a choice left
’cept trying to sleep this off
and I tried that once tonight
i know you’re not in the wrong
yeah that’s the greatest pill of all
you know if i had right on my side
i’d show up every night
i’d never stop trying
i never took a moment
with everything you said
to try to see your side
you gave me a dot, a line, a graph
a chart, a figure and a map
but i never saw the light
i know....
so maybe this wasn’t pointless
’cause i finally understand
what you told me all along
and i’m glad i came across you
crashed in to your rocks
that’s where that boat belonged

about
Paul Tabachneck New York
I started doing music in Pittsburgh, fronting the folk-rock band Stone Soup, the dark-pop band Dead Pressed Flowers, and the Power Pop band Manpig aka Everybody Wins. After that, I moved to New York, mostly playing solo and busking a lot. Now I live in CT and play in my home office because everything is bad and no one can go out. See me Wednesdays at 7:30 at facebook.com/paultab! ... more
