Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Why is the sky so blue?
Why are the trees so green?
Why clouds exist?
Where did all this come from?
The nature, planets, universe
It makes me wonder
The things that I see and feel are they real?
It's so hard for me to comprehend what life is all about
In the middle of the chaos where's the truth?
Tell that to me dear god
Am I just your puppet or
Do I have a will of my own?
I'm asking now
And tell me why a four year old dies in cancer?
Please explain that to me
What's the reason for all this suffering?
Did you just fuck things up
Or are you there at all?
Why would we need you anyway?
Tell that to me dear god
Maybe all this is in vain
You're not there so I create my own world
I leave all bullshit to you
I don't try to save the world anymore
Do you hear me you fuck?
Give me some answers and stop hiding!
Am I just an air molecule to you?
What are we to you? Just ants?
What are we doing here?
Why are the trees so green?
Why clouds exist?
Where did all this come from?
The nature, planets, universe
It makes me wonder
The things that I see and feel are they real?
It's so hard for me to comprehend what life is all about
In the middle of the chaos where's the truth?
Tell that to me dear god
Am I just your puppet or
Do I have a will of my own?
I'm asking now
And tell me why a four year old dies in cancer?
Please explain that to me
What's the reason for all this suffering?
Did you just fuck things up
Or are you there at all?
Why would we need you anyway?
Tell that to me dear god
Maybe all this is in vain
You're not there so I create my own world
I leave all bullshit to you
I don't try to save the world anymore
Do you hear me you fuck?
Give me some answers and stop hiding!
Am I just an air molecule to you?
What are we to you? Just ants?
What are we doing here?

The Night We Met

This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
