about

I've been working on this song for almost a year now. Writing and re-writing, mixing then starting all over just to get it right. It's not my usual "genre" but I don't really consider myself belonging... well...anywhere really. I still make decisions based in passion and sometimes they work out and other times not so much. This song is for all those who feel dejected and ignored. Inspired by a loop that Warren Bischoff sent me, I built a tune around that first. Then I sent it to my friend Lyle Ronglien for some other-worldly guitar work and my friend Jyri Glynn added some beautiful electric violin parts.

lyrics

If you believe everything they told you
then hopes and dreams and fairy tales don't end
the tv set was screaming laughter - again
and somehow these walls become my friends

I've been such a foolish boy
such a foolish boy
such a foolish boy
you let your anger control you and you can't get it back
this kid is out of control so send him back where he belongs
big dreams die slow
you're always the last to know
he's out of control so send him back where he belongs
big dreams die slow
you're always the last to know
you're always the last to know
such a foolish boy

Now you say that your love has faded
faded away like broken dreams

I've been such a foolish boy
such a foolish boy
such a foolish boy
you let your anger control you and you can't get it back
this kid is out of control so send him back where he belongs
big dreams die slow
you're always the last to know
you're always the last to know
this kid is out of control so send him back where he belongs
big dreams die slow
you're always the last to know
you're always the last to know
such a foolish boy
such a foolish boy

about

Toby C Brady Seattle, Washington

They say you can’t escape your “roots” and my writing started leaning towards the Alt-Country/Americana style. I feel that I’ve finally found “my voice” and people like to hear a good story. It might be a scary tale of ghosts along the highway or a love song for my guitar, I have wide spectrum of inspiration to draw from. ... more
