Before You Cast Me Aside

May 01, 2008

While the rest of Holland was out celebrating Queensday yesterday, I stayed in and wrote a new song:

You’re quick to judge
Read the cover
Think you know the whole book
Why the rush?
Are you too scared
To find you might be wrong

Before you cast me aside
Will you at least take one look inside my mind
Will you at least admit
That you don’t have a clue
That you don’t even know who I am
You don’t even know who I am

We don’t have to be friends
You don’t even have to like me
But I deserve more
Than to be ignored just for the way I look

Before you cast me aside
Will you at least take one look inside my mind
Will you at least admit
That you don’t have a clue
That you don’t even know who I am
You don’t even know who I am
Who I am
Who I am

As you can see it’s a bit of an angry song, maybe even a little self-righteous. Don’t know why this particular theme came to my head, but I ran with it. I also did a rough recording yesterday, but it is not yet suited for anybody’s ears but my own. I am hoping to have something suitable for your ears within the next week or so.
