From the recording Won't Go Back
This song represents the start of a new phase in Ben’s life… the next in his ‘timeline’ to that point if you like. “I wrote this when I had just started at JMC Academy and finally felt like I had a path to follow. It’s about moving forward and not dwelling on the past, with a nod to previous relationships too.”
Lyrics
WON'T GO BACK
I know you think I've acted out of fear
Cause everything you did was to stop me from coming close
I hate the way I feel so lost without you Like feeling so homesick without a house to call my own
And I’m telling all my friends that I hate that I need you
Oh I don't know why
I hate the way you walk from every moment
Your love is killing me I can't take this My life is going wrong and I can't hold on no
You left me all alone in the darkness
It breaks my heart to see you with him
But I am going strong and I
I ain't going back again
Do you think they were all just empty moments
The one's that have filled my head since you've been gone
I keep thinking that I’m the one with problems
But did you even care? Would I have changed a thing at all
And I’m telling all my friends that I hate that I miss you
Oh I don't know why
I hate the way you walk from every moment
Your love is killing me I can't take this My life is going wrong and I can't hold on no
You left me all alone in the darkness
It breaks my heart to see you with him
But I am going strong and I
I ain't going back again
I hate the way you walk from every moment
Your love is killing me I can't take this My life is going wrong and I can't hold on no
You left me all alone in the darkness
It breaks my heart to see you with him
But I am going strong and I
I ain't going back again
I hate the way you walk from every moment
Your love is killing me I can't take this My life is going wrong and I can't hold on no
You left me all alone in the darkness
It breaks my heart to see you with him
But I am going strong and I
I ain't going back again
