Description
This is one of the first complete songs from The Invisible Friends, an internet collaboration project between myself and a good friend three hours away. Most of this song was done in Garageband, though I recut the vocals and did a new mix in my new love, Logic Express. Let us know what you think!
Song written by John Parker.
Acoustic guitar and vocals by John Parker. Electric guitars (12-string and 6-string) and bass by Jeremy Grassman.

Lyrics
Should have seen it coming from the very start.
There’s no way we were getting out of this thing
with anything better than a pair of broken hearts.
Now we’re down to leaving scars on scars.
And this love it just bled like a wound to the head.
Man, why’s it gotta be so hard?
(it's why I’m sayin’)
That I don’t know you like you think I do.
I don’t know you like I should.
And if I told you just what you want me to,
would we still be saying goodbye for good?
It’s plain to see that this was never built to last.
But it’s hard to mind all the danger signs
when you’re in too deep moving way too fast.
Instead of slowing down you’re standing on the gas.
Not to say that you’re blind, but please open your eyes
Because I think we’re gonna crash
(and it’s why I’m sayin)
That I don’t know you like you think I do.
I don’t know you like I should.
And if I told you just what you want me to,
would we still be saying goodbye for good?
(I bet we would.)

Hey that 12-string adds a great sound. Makes me think
of the Byrds. And don't take this the wrong way, but MJ
should have an alt.country section. This could work there
too.
The production on this tune is tight. Only thing missing
(IMHO) are some cool drum fills to propel this piece in the
latter stages of the song. Can't have everything, eh?
Kee p up the good work. This piece is great.
