One of the most popular songs from my album, "Horizon" (now available on CDBaby and iTunes). Full lyrics below :)
For this video, I took the original audio track from "Horizon" and updated it with brand-new vocals, piano, percussion and some acoustic guitar. The "invisible" electric guitarist is my buddy Andrew Synowiec, who did an awesome job on the recording.
Please comment, thumbs up, share and subscribe. As always, I truly appreciate the support of each and every one of you guys :)
Scared of Love
(by Matthew Jordan & Robert Strauss)
Break me
Take a hammer to this concrete
Make me
Take a chisel to this stone
Create me
As someone who won't have to be alone
Write me
Into happy ever after
Home free
After hiding all these years
I wish you could see me
It's been hard to be me
CHORUS:
It's a long way back
When you get to here
Yeah staring out
From a broken mirror
Feels tough
You're just Scared of Love
When up is down
And what's wrong is right
And you're all alone
Almost every night
And you fear
You're just not good enough
There's no use denyin'
You're just Scared of Love
Painted
Into one too many corners
Sainted
By the angels in my head
Tainted
By the devil on my shoulder
Oh I wish you could see me
It's been hard to be me
CHORUS
Battered hearts
And chains that bind
The darkest thoughts
This desperate mind
I wish you could see me
It's been hard to be me
Counter-Melody:
You rise and fall
You've lost it all
So scared yeah
You're just scared of love
Your dreams are sold
You're growing old
Can't fight it
CHORUS 2X
