about
For the song "Too Much," Derek Wayne Martin brings to the table indie stylings and Americana-esque authenticity that will leave you without words, but not without a deep feeling of a burden shared.
lyrics
I put too much worth in a hand in mine
There's too much weight in your hair
It moves too swiftly in the depths of my mind
God I wish I didn't care
There's too much pressure in the way you light up the room
There's too much present in your stare
I can't seem to figure this out
God I wish I didn't care
But I do...
I spend too much time in this head of mine
And everything seems so unfair
Take away what I'm feeling inside
God I wish I didn't care
But I do...
I care about the way you'll look at me like
I'm the only one in the world
I care about all the dreams that you've dreamt
Since you were a little girl
I can be the one you hold on to
When the darkness is too much to bear
But as for now I can't have you
God I wish that I didn't care
But I do...
There's too much weight in your hair
It moves too swiftly in the depths of my mind
God I wish I didn't care
There's too much pressure in the way you light up the room
There's too much present in your stare
I can't seem to figure this out
God I wish I didn't care
But I do...
I spend too much time in this head of mine
And everything seems so unfair
Take away what I'm feeling inside
God I wish I didn't care
But I do...
I care about the way you'll look at me like
I'm the only one in the world
I care about all the dreams that you've dreamt
Since you were a little girl
I can be the one you hold on to
When the darkness is too much to bear
But as for now I can't have you
God I wish that I didn't care
But I do...
