lyrics

I tried too hard to be what I thought I needed
To be just what you needed
Is not what I am
And I went too far and got a little greedy
For that need to feel needed
Now I don't give a damn

About anything else and I've gone down the list
You’re the last time I felt like I didn't feel like this

I've been wrong before
I'll be wrong some more.

Another chance of a lifetime
Another lifetime away.

You said you knew those moments when they felt right
When you trusted instinct’s insight
I should it try and see
I want to take your words and speak them right back to you
Hope that they'll get through to
What's missing in me

I was looking to quit and you gave me an out
As I gathered up my shit you saw self doubt fall out
And you doubted me
Oh the irony

Another chance of a lifetime
Another lifetime away.

The last thing I expected was to be so well rejected
By the first thing that I believed in in so long
Was the last thing That should have gone wrong
Was your conclusion
You had better things to do than
Be mine

Another chance of a lifetime

I knew I wasn't selfish I though, hey, I think I deserve this
My only fault was I was tired of being alone
My hope from there could only have grown
Up to someone worth your admiration
And mine

Another a chance of a lifetime

I'm so goddamn bored of being so goddamn scared
Yet remain so ill prepared for what I'm due to have got
But I know
The man I am is worth someone like you
suffering the truth of the man that I'm not.

Agreed that I’m good, but that’s not good enough
Now I'm worse than I was but you're still better off
And I can't compete your needs got mine beat

My wish had been answered that you tuned back into the question
That I keep asking myself again and again

And I’m going insane

And your a lifetime away

Another lifetime away

about

Revered Vancouver, British Columbia

"Revered" is composer/front-man, Emmett Hall's musical experiment into pseudo-new wave/prog-rock cathartic nonsense.
Best described as an entertaining self-cleansing though acerbic revelry and bathos.
Much of which is in collaboration with producer, Pietro Sammarco.
