I’m not angry
This is a song about a bad break up and a fierce woman. I enjoy the dark vibe in between folk and blues. Thanks for the great lyrics, Geoff. This song is part of my album”Quarterlife Blues”.
You used to be grounded
You used to be whole
Knew where you were going
Hit all of your goals
I used to be happy
I used to be glad
Knew what I was doing
Was pleased what I had
But I’m not angry
About what used to be
Don’t seek retribution
Or shake you from your sanctuary
We had a communion
We had a divorce
The pain and the pleasure
Took it’s own course
Down through the river
And out in the street
To wash over strangers
Shoes and their feet
But I’m not angry
About what used to be
Don’t seek retribution
Or shake you from your sanctuary
No I don’t care
For the love that’s been and gone
Cos a runaway train
Was waiting all along
Yes a runaway train
Was waiting all along
