This song reminds me of the book "it's kind of a funny story" because the kid in it calls his problems his 'tentacles' and when you said 'he's one of my arrows' it just reminded me of it. I liked the song immensly.
I am buying your CD right now with money I got for my birthday Sunday! I've been waiting for this moment for a long time. I love this song, thank you for posting it :o)
Okay, I would expect this be a polished version of an early song. I'm totally okay with the cryptic lyrics because they provide some cerebral interest. I feel smarter just listening to you! However, The wheels fell off during the last verse and you really skidded across that last line. I like the fact you take risks and put yourself out there. The least your viewers can do is be honest--you're too talented for rubbish!
Alright, I'll take it. But I've never been one to post completely perfect runthroughs of songs. It's not realistic and I play live often enough for the people who come out to see me to know that my charm is not in my ability to duplicate the recordings exactly but to screw up in the middle and laugh at myself. I may be talented, but I'm also human.
I'm not convinced that you're really okay with that!
You're a tremendously good sport about it all. That's part of your charm that makes you interesting. I know you're just playing around and your fans appreciate it.
If you're wondering, I wasn't okay with it. The event that inspired this song was followed by eight months of heartbreak. So it's probably good that you weren't convinced because I didn't want you to be.
I love when you play the acoustic guitar. it inspires me to work harder at the electric, and makes me want to buy an acoustic because you sound so darn good =D
I love this song! :) The lyrics are intriguing; on one hand you get the general idea of what the song is about, on the other you want to know the full story behind it...
I've actually been listening to the recorded version of this quite a lot lately, and it's one of my (many) favorites of yours. I haven't gotten your CD yet, but I'll be buying it as soon as I can!
I love this one. When I here this song I always think about The Sisterhood of Traveling Pants since I listened to your songs on repeat when I read the fourth and third book :D
@devilishlypure Is it ok with you if I use this song as a base of a story? Because I think it would be a cool story.

Reasons why I love you have increased. Why? Why you ask? Because you have an Across The Universe poster. :D

It's mainly the last line: "I'm okay with that"

my only critique would be to say that i think the guitar is a little loud; it kinda overpowers your voice.
