Your talent outshines all that I could ever do or say
and me and my jealousy, I stole your songs and pass them off as my own
As much as I would like for it not to show
you can smell the stink on my breath and in my clothes, it's so obvious
oh if I could only be half the things you write about in your songs
if I could only mean half as much to anyone
and in my arrogance I write pages of anger hate and spite
all of the reasons I have to trust... absolutley no one
today I heard you on my stereo and it shamed me,
yes it shamed me to think that I could be so unoriginal
oh if I could only be half the genius that you are
to feel such honest want, to show love
I would show you love
I would show you love
I would show you love
oh if I could only feel half as resolute in my beliefs,
if I could only sing with such bravery
I can not explain how much you mean to me
without your words, I would be lost.

actually, this song is about Erin Toby from the band Abe Froman. This song is repayment for one Toby wrote about Gabel.

@ballinassmofo i kinda found it sarcastic at first but "i would show you love" kinda disrupted that thought...

I think its the other way, its tom singing to laura.

@AJAWARE2085 12 жыл бұрын

I think its him as Laura singing to Tom... but we have our own opinions, mine is just the right answer :)

This song is actually about me, but I can't go into it because the rest is obviously personal.

GitarreFuhrer wait Dylan still comes on the radio yeah it's interesting and hard to figure it out but it's his his insides we are not to judge. Just lucky he shares her soul. Make it what u want bit no one's his therapist

Who is this song about?

@adamrodriguez8415 6 жыл бұрын

He's referring to his subconscious and soul it his living expectations for the human nature to self loath. It couldn't be put better I feel this way with my artistic ability everyday.

Guy, you're being unnecessarily hostile. Let's keep this unlike other youtube videos out of respect for Tom Gabel. k?

@blackmamba532 5 жыл бұрын

IDK who it's supposed to be about. I think that's the point that it matters to Gabel and that's that. Unnecessarily hostile...hmmm. That would include a lot of the use of the word FUCK, involved. OR I guess that guy mentioning his lil' penile in the convo. WHOA! That was really fucking inappropriate for a general audience to have to be subjected to! I mean come on, there's fucking 12 yr olds probably on here past their bedtimes!!
