lyrics

Run away
Fake your feelings
Say what you say
You talk,
You talk yourself into circles
Circumnavigate your heart
Running after what you’re not
Say what you say
But you just don’t mean it
Mean it

Come on, Come on
Don’t you think it’s time we were honest
Come on, Come on
Life is too short to hide what is deep inside us

Say what you say
Skate around the issue
Play the games that you’re so into
But you’re lost inside your head
Fast asleep in your sorrows
Covered in blankets that you borrowed
Faces and names that you just don’t need
You gonna say what you say
You better say what you mean

Oh don’t you run away
No, don’t hide your face
Know I will always stay
Will stay

Come on, Come on, Come on, Come on


::THE STORY BEHIND "Come On, Come On"::


"I wrote this in Murfreesboro, TN the year after I’d graduated college. I’d just moved in with some good friends there from Biloxi, MS and missed Hurricane Katrina hitting the Gulf Coast by two days. It’s still crazy to think about. In between working at Wal-Mart and going back and forth from Murfreesboro to Biloxi to help out my family, I spent a lot of time trying to figure out what I was doing with my life and going a little crazy too. Because I was away from my family and what I considered “home” at the time, I was forced to face some very heavy questions and realizations about myself. “Come On, Come On” is a reflection of that process of getting more honest with myself. I think if God or my family or my friends could have said anything of value to me at that time, this would have been it."--Q
