These are the lyrics to the second track on Blue October's album Any Man in America. The rest are to follow! Keep in mind, these take me an hour to make.
This song brings tears to my eyes every time. My husband stayed when my mental health was so severe I begged him to leave. I’ve been in so many hospitals I felt it wasn’t right for anyone to go through it with me. So if anyone knows what this song is about please say a prayer for anyone going through this. It’s been 5 years now since I was found hanging myself in a closet. Please have patience with anyone that has mental health problems. Please don’t judge by reading this instead understanding I was tired of this world & ready to leave I continue to need help everyday. This song has such deep meaning… 💜
One the references I believe, is that the singer suffers from Bipolar (so do I), and this is in relation to his relationships with family and stuff I relate this song, to my parents. As they broke up My father also has Bipolar, and schizophrenia. He and my mother were going through a bad time, and ultimately chose to end it. But we're all in so much better spaces, and time has healed some wounds
Addicted to this song. Not only the lyrics, but how it's put together, the classic drums, the guitar riff... tthe climax "and then she would know"... the whole package!
This song makes me think about how horroble i was to a girl who deserved so much more than i could ever give her she was my everything and i pushed her away because she needed to move on from me shes free while im stuck in the same moment for the past 4 years
Fortunately his life has changed. This was a dark and bitter album but I LOVE the emotional explosion of this song. I saw his Songs from an Open Book Tour. Amazing as he talked about his life and the music behind it. Sincerity in all of it.
@masterosports Justin (the lead singer) doesnt want anyone to feel sorry for him. He simply wants every man in America (that has a kid(s)) to know that the story he is telling through this album can be the story of thier life. Hence the name "Any Man In America". Justin doesnt write his music for sympathy from others. His music is his story and he wants others to know that they aren't alone. That bad $h!t happens to good people. And I think he is gorgeous. And even more beautiful on the inside.
Thank you for your efforts. Blue says what so many of us want to but can't. Appreciate you writing the lyrics down to this CD's songs. So beautiful, touching, and REAL, as all of Justin's writings/feelings are.......
Its early morning and this song is playing as the sun comes up and the dew on the grass is sparkling. Theres a flood of emotions. Its a bittersweet feeling.
This unreal song....those heartwrenching lyrics...that violin!!....and the power of it all together.....I don`t hear this ; I FEEL IT!!!!!! Kinda scary how beautiful this is........
And you stay.. You always stayed.. Through all of my intense BPD episodes, when I was crying over other boys, when you loved me and I didn't love you, when I loved you and you didn't love me, when I was sobbing for you to be with me, when you called me with no answer and left a voicemail crying, when you had another girl in your life, when we tried to make it work and it didn't but it failed to tear us apart. I swear we are both victims of bad timing and we go weeks without talking, but you're still my best friend. And what we have must be fucking strong if it is able to hang on for a year and is still going strong given how insane I can act when I'm hurting. Thank you for always being a message away. Everytime I hear this song, I just want to go running to you. And yes, I know how much you love me. You wouldn't be here if you didn't love me strongly. I know you hate this song but it was what comforted me when we were fighting a year ago and I loved you so much I had no clue what to do with myself.
Most of his songs are about personal experiences.. Black Orchid was written by him at age 14, as a confession to his mother that he had been considering the act of committing suicide. James is about how much he was bullied as a child. Bleed Out was about the pain he put his wife through. I love Blue October for these reasons, aside from sounding amazing, it's so personal and honest.. But I guess it has to do with the fact that these songs weren't written to just make a song to sell, but just through him, for him.
sorry to hear about what you are going through , some of it what my husband and I are going through too with being apart and not being together right now with our baby girl :(
agreed. i was surprised tht blue sand into the ocean. it is so calming to the rest of their songs espicially compared to hate me cuz into the ocean is so calming yet hate me is so, how do i put it? Intense. as with all their songs about making break throughs and realizing what the right thing is. while into the ocean is more, is just, well, the exact opposite.
This song brings me to tears. Reminds me of how I will never ever be able to fully love my best friend. Rule number one, don’t ever fall in love with your straight best friend. 💔
October 28th is the day someone asked me out like three years ago. Broke up with me like a two and half years ago lmfao. Can't believe I remember still...
Me and the girl i love just broke up i would do any thing to get her back but every thing i try pushes her away from me this song really speaks to how i feel

this songs perfect for me i had a misscarriage my due date was the 25th of october close to the 28th and the day i got the call that it was a miscarriage my fiance left me
Hello Blue. I was curious as to whether or not you have risen from relative obscurity? I have played your music at times of deep despair, perhaps just listening to another... well I had a reason to live, because there were three of us... Caiden is eight now. It is just two of us.
Its about his ex wife ans daughter his wife cheated on him while he was away and got a restraining order on him and hes supposed to have visits with her but her mom always makes excuses so he can hardly ever even see his daughter but now he is remarried and has anothee daughter named sayde but he gets to see his other daughter blue sometimes
Hi There is a source online where the lead singer is quoted explaining the place in his life at that time -where he was emotionally over the Breakup with his wife and the thought of not seeing his little girl On numerous Trips to the Vets With then a very poorly and 12 year old best friend of mine Levi, who was battling liver failure from cancer (We literally tried everything).... This Song Would Always seem to come on the Radio on the Way home an it so fitted the solomity and Love in that little red Clio, my first Car too, I'd look in my Rear view mirror at him so Grateful for another week and sing the line at end of song "Just look into those Big Brown eyes "xx And just Fall Apart "" Real Love in this Sad Sad song and that was back in 2012, This is gonna make for good life photos montage video a tribute to his life and the last few tough years coming Upto an end of an 11 year relationship too just last year This song really would help me through with my memories in photos set to it x
I. Feel lifeless as if I have no feelings or emotions.I pray to God make the voices stop but they remind me every second of the day how pathetic and worthless I am a soul that was the butt of every joke about being retarded When I'm fucking not!! Begging every time for change I hate living and waking up with the sudden insults destroying me traumatizing my brain and my will to live .but...........for all of you that have someone don't take it for granted it will eat at your organs to the point of where your so disgusted of yourself you want to rip them out as you cough out the blood filling your throat. And you let out the tears you thought you never had the ability to cry out when the time seemed right.find peace or you will perish with only regrets.

But we're all in so much better spaces, and time has healed some wounds
Brings me chills and tears, i guess this one is my favorite
Addicted to this song. Not only the lyrics, but how it's put together, the classic drums, the guitar riff... tthe climax "and then she would know"... the whole package!
+Sophia Plate You should really listen to their "Foiled" album--the production is immaculate. Check out "Let it Go" and "Into the Ocean"
This song makes me think about how horroble i was to a girl who deserved so much more than i could ever give her she was my everything and i pushed her away because she needed to move on from me shes free while im stuck in the same moment for the past 4 years
Hope things are starting to look up for you now. I am in the same boat. But Blue October is helping me heal. N other music.
Fortunately his life has changed. This was a dark and bitter album but I LOVE the emotional explosion of this song. I saw his Songs from an Open Book Tour. Amazing as he talked about his life and the music behind it. Sincerity in all of it.
This song makes a chill go down my spine. Such raw and honest emotion.
This entire song gives me chills.
It reminds me so my of my ex and praying he would be in her daughter and my life. Always have tears rolling down when I hear this song. Thank you.
this song literally broke my heart.
I’m binging Blue October’s music. Just discovered them, and they are extraordinary. Love everything they sing! They’re great lyricist too.

I simply love Blue October...yet another Amazing song.
Its early morning and this song is playing as the sun comes up and the dew on the grass is sparkling. Theres a flood of emotions. Its a bittersweet feeling.
Been listening to these guys for years, the songs seem to speak to me. Love them all.
This unreal song....those heartwrenching lyrics...that violin!!....and the power of it all together.....I don`t hear this ; I FEEL IT!!!!!!
Kinda scary how beautiful this is........
This is my go-to song when fighting with a loved one.
And you stay.. You always stayed.. Through all of my intense BPD episodes, when I was crying over other boys, when you loved me and I didn't love you, when I loved you and you didn't love me, when I was sobbing for you to be with me, when you called me with no answer and left a voicemail crying, when you had another girl in your life, when we tried to make it work and it didn't but it failed to tear us apart.

How does he not cry singing this song
he did in a live performance of this song .
He does.
Dan T he Man Yes, it seems, he cries from a deeper place.
they are so incredible and it's a shame that almost anybody knows about them...at least in my country..
This was a real event in his life! look it up. And sadly this is happening in my life with my little girl...........

@MrDTRAIN91
i THINK that its about his wife wanting a divorce and she wants to take his daughter from him. the entire album is about that :P
this songs perfect for me i had a misscarriage my due date was the 25th of october close to the 28th and the day i got the call that it was a miscarriage my fiance left me
Kirstyn Timberlake I am so sorry
Kirstyn Bathurts oh I’m so sorry my mom had a miscarriage with my baby brother
You deserve better anyway. Keep your head up.
I’m sorry, but now I’m sad
He didn't deserve you and you didn't deserve that 💔😢. God bless you 🙏
I agree! :)
I can relate with this song on a weird level
@kungenchrille Ohh okay that makes sense, thanks for clearing that up.

❤🤘
luck u cuz they rock..
Hello Blue. I was curious as to whether or not you have risen from relative obscurity? I have played your music at times of deep despair, perhaps just listening to another... well I had a reason to live, because there were three of us... Caiden is eight now. It is just two of us.
i just broke up and this song hit me every words!
I wish you'd stay :'(
I burn everything good to the ground. Why am I so broken?
maybe we should stay
😞 ♥️
IDK how many of you play Silent Hill, but if you're a fan of Downpour:
Isn't this song kinda perfect for Murphy?
Its not "Again," its "I can." ;)
Pretty much how it feels...........
good song...need to work on the lyrics a bit but good job
I know how you feel.
I've been meaning to know, What is this song about? What happened to him? .. looked it up but couldn't really find answers. Beautiful song though..
It's what they said ^
Its about his ex wife ans daughter his wife cheated on him while he was away and got a restraining order on him and hes supposed to have visits with her but her mom always makes excuses so he can hardly ever even see his daughter but now he is remarried and has anothee daughter named sayde but he gets to see his other daughter blue sometimes
he was an addict she left because of it not wanting the little girl subjected to a life like that
+Kirstyn Timberlake Ah okay.. thank you!! :)
Hi
There is a source online where the lead singer is quoted explaining the place in his life at that time -where he was emotionally over the Breakup with his wife and the thought of not seeing his little girl
On numerous Trips to the Vets With then a very poorly and 12 year old best friend of mine Levi, who was battling liver failure from cancer
(We literally tried everything)....
This Song Would Always seem to come on the Radio on the Way home an it so fitted the solomity and Love in that little red Clio, my first Car too, I'd look in my Rear view mirror at him so Grateful for another week and sing the line at end of song
"Just look into those Big Brown eyes "xx
And just Fall Apart ""
Real Love in this Sad Sad song and that was back in 2012,
This is gonna make for good life photos montage video a tribute to his life and the last few tough years coming Upto an end of an 11 year relationship too just last year
This song really would help me through with my memories in photos set to it x
I can* not again
What is he singing about in this song? What is the meaning of the song? Thanks.
Lucky. :( i'd kill to see them
Not to mention it's in the beginning of the video. Some people get so lazy with these vids.
what is said in the beginning?
We are... We are hurt. This version is hard to tell what they are saying. On one of their live performance album it is very clear.
Thank you!
I am going to get the lyrics from: 2:22 - 2:55 tattooed one day
:)
Like duble 1.000.000
Brian, WHY did not You sta!
cuz you cheated on him
appreciate the effort...but some of the lyrics are wrong.
I. Feel lifeless as if I have no feelings or emotions.I pray to God make the voices stop but they remind me every second of the day how pathetic and worthless I am a soul that was the butt of every joke about being retarded
When I'm fucking not!! Begging every time for change I hate living and waking up with the sudden insults destroying me traumatizing my brain and my will to live .but...........for all of you that have someone don't take it for granted it will eat at your organs to the point of where your so disgusted of yourself you want to rip them out as you cough out the blood filling your throat. And you let out the tears you thought you never had the ability to cry out when the time seemed right.find peace or you will perish with only regrets.
yes
some of the lyrics are wrong ..
