Additional Information
Described by Jon:
l’ve always shied away from the word love ‘cause it's so overused, but it's not the love of a girl I'm talking about here. It was more what I was thinking on the morning of September 11. What’s important? The people I love are important, that's all. My mother, my father, my friends, my girlfriend… life doesn’t mean shit if you don't have that. - NZGirl.co.nz
Lyrics
Give me a place to shed my skin There's no point waiting round to begin 'Cause the more it takes, the more you feel Ain't got much but I know it's real Ain't got time for wasting life away All the people around you The walls that surround you are coming down And the things that you feel Hearts that you steal they'll be coming down for love All the people around you The walls that surround you are coming down And the things that you hide Won't be denied they'll be coming down Coming down for love Open up and let them in Love ain't something that you can win 'Cause the more it takes, the more you feel Ain't got much but we know it's real Ain't got time for wasting life away All the people around you The walls that surround you are coming down And the things that you feel Hearts that you steal they'll be coming down for love All the people around you The walls that surround you are coming down And the things that you hide Won't be denied they'll be coming down Coming down for love Now for every boy and every girl With all the pain and joy in the world It don't mean nothing without love All the people around you The walls that surround you are coming down And the things that you feel Hearts that you steal they'll be coming down for love All the people around you The walls that surround you are coming down And the things that you hide Won't be denied they'll be coming down Coming down for love
