Backstory -
It all began here:
“Just About Done” was the song that got Breaking
Through The Glass,
and indeed, the whole quartet of albums, off the ground. For the
previous ten years of my life, I had experienced health problems and
was nearly in danger of losing my life. Sometime between late June
and early July 2012, I was finally given a complete clean bill of
health and would be able to finally move past this rough stage of my
life.
July
2nd,
2012 marked 10 years since this health scare started. Rather
fittingly, it also marked the day that I began recording a song
inspired by this euphoric feeling of being free from all these past
torments. I was in such a pumped up mood that I began formally
assembling what was then, a planned double album. “Just About
Done”, featuring a set of universal lyrics, was swiftly finished
and initially released as a teaser in early 2013. It wasn't until a
year later that I gave the song the honor of being the closing track
on Breaking Through
The Glass.
Lyrics –
Well I've had
enough of being with you, and I couldn't face another day
You're like a
fine poison to me, so why don't you go away?
For ten long
years I've been dependent on you, and you've been like a leach to me
Well now it's
packing order, now you're getting the boot, from now on let me be.
Chorus –
Cause I think I'm just about done with you
I think I'm
just about done with you
Get out of my
life! I don't want you around no more!
Well you've
given me migraines and I couldn't sleep, I'm surprised that I haven't
gone grey
I couldn't live
my life and relax, cause you wouldn't go away!
Yes after ten
long years, I'm sick of all the crap, that I've had to face from you
Well this ends
today, don't come crawling back, cause you and I are through!
(Chorus x3)
