A Latin rock song with some funky elements. The lyrics should be relateable, if you have ever been in a situation, where you wish someone had cut you off, instead of insisting that "I will get back to you"..
Story behind the song
I had this idea of a Latin, soul kind of song with some call response harmonies and a lot of percussion sizzling in the background.
i also had an idea, that the chorus should be something about not being treated fairly by someone. They would cut you off, but keep you hanging by a thread, telling you that they would come back some time, but after a while you start to think that they never meant that.
Lyrics
No matter your despair
or what you reasons were,
you didn't treat me right.
Though you were in a mess
that caused a lot of stress,
you didn't treat me right.
I know I did my part,
pushing it too hard,
I didn't treat you right.
So here we are today,
close, but far away,
we didn't get it right.
I felt like had known you for a long time,
but it was just a couple of months.
I took too much for granted
and that was when it ended
in this strange way..
You said I'd hear from you
but was that really true?
You didn't treat me right.
If you call me one day
I'm not sure what I'll say,
you didn't treat me right.
Maybe I'm to blame
but it's a bloody shame,
we didn't get it right.
How long should I wait?
And why am I afraid?
you didn't treat me right.
I feel I need something to believe in,
to show me that I'm not a fool.
Just a few words,
to assure me
That you really meant what you said.
