Lyrics:
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
When sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you'd bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

You aren't special, stop recording everything like your life is a reality TV show. Sorry for the rant.

GRIZZLYFIT. Jungle Fitness after the success of his first major hit, “Name”, he got hit with severe writers block that lasted a very long time, and he had begun to give up on being a singer songwriter. He then was asked to write a song for the movie City of Angels, and what he came up with eventually became Iris, and he was so happy to finally have finished a thought. Iris became another big hit, and changed his life forever.

He was a good lad, thanks for making the song that he listened to for the last time in 10 years as we put him down. Won't mean much to everyone out there. Some idiot talking about his old dog who loved this song and one of the few things that ALWAYS calmed him down after we adopted him.

Aries I remember my sister taking me to Led Zeppelin concert at 12 years old in the 70s. She was a big partier left me in my seat for over 1 hour with 75,000 fans. I felt bad for her born with IRISH Red Hair. Im so IRISH my middle name is PATRICK. They say we get our Freckels from the sun, that might be True because IRISH Skin burns easily in the sun.

It is more than most people realize. After their lives totally changed, this was return to their hometown, where the community had supported them for years, though they never had a hit. Many in the crowd were family and friends that had supported them throughout the years, in a concert in the middle of Buffalo. The city famous for it's precipitation, became a star in the show.
