Verse
She told me baby maybe we need some kind of break
I said we can try to make it work, honey please it’s not too late but she’s like
Don’t wanna hear it, I just need some time away
So I asked was it something that I did, was it
something that I said? But she’s like
I feel like I don’t even know you anymore
And then she packed her things, then she screamed, didn’t even close the
door
Chorus
I’m feeling lonely but I know I’m better off
I take for granted the things that I wanted most
So next time, please define the meaning of a break
Cause you’re not breaking any hearts, you’ve only made today a better day
Verse
Lord knows of all the times I’ve waited up on her
All the dates she forgot and I would end up talking to an empty chair
But life ain’t fair I know because of the time I called her on the telephone
And she couldn’t answer because she was fucking that dancer she met at the benefit show
But I don’t care anymore you know, I’ve been through this shit before
You would think that I would learn…
but no
Chorus
I’m feeling lonely but I know I’m better off
I take for granted the things that I wanted most
So next time, please define the meaning of a break
Cause you’re not breaking any hearts, you’ve only made today a better day
Solo
Bridge
I know you don’t care
But baby just be aware
That I don’t want you anymore, so don’t be coming back for more
And if you ask me what I think of this right here right now I’ll tell ya
Chorus
I’m feeling lonely but I know I’m better off (I’m better off)
I take for granted the things that I wanted most (I wanted most)
So next time, please define the meaning of a break
Cause you’re not breaking any hearts, you’ve only made today a better day
Verse
She doesn't know
but she feels it's right
She's all alone
but she's not this time
As she looks up at the sky
she has hope within her eyes
But when I look up I see doubt
And she dreams with such an ease
that I know it's a disease
If I could catch it some how
Chorus
And I, feel like I can never do no right
Try my best to do no wrong though I
Expose my soul when we meet eye to eye
Verse
She's in control, or so she thinks
She will unfold, with just one blink
But I know that I've been falling for the things I knew I shouldn't and been holding on to hopes that in my heart I knew I couldn't
It's just so hard to play a saint
When the things you know, let you go
light that shown was never gold
And you don't know who to blame
Chorus
And I, feel like I can never do no right
Try my best to do no wrong though I
Expose my soul when we meet eye to eye
And I, feel like I can never do no right
Try my best to do no wrong though I
Expose my soul when we meet eye to eye
Bridge
Suddenly I know
She's not who I thought
Suddenly I see
She's different from me
And as she rises from the ashes of another past
She is free
But what about me?
Chorus
And I, feel like I can never do no right
Try my best to do no wrong though I
Expose my soul when we meet eye to eye, eye, eye
Verse
The summer breeze
blowing through the moonlit sky
as I stare into the night for answers
and questions but the night does not reply
and if I had some peace of mind
by any means
I'd pack my things and I would just leave it all
behind
forget the lies
open my eyes
and realize that life is
undefined
or so I'm told
Chorus
Today is not the day
that I will find my way
but I know, it's a long road anyway
If I don't stray, baby I swear I won’t delay
I won’t be coming home today
Verse
And If I stayed
I'd give up on all of my dreams
I've dreamt of when I was a teen
I'm older
but young enough to taste another spring
I sing so the stars can hear my cry
but then I see
that suddenly
my luck is gone and time has passed me
by
with one last breath
I'm facing death
I've never lived so I don't want to
die
but this I know
Chorus
Today is not the day
that I will find my way
but I know, it's a long road anyway
If I don't stray, baby I swear I won’t delay
I won’t be coming home today
Bridge
Let me stop
I will not be able
to rewind the time I've lost
with no cost, or a reason
I can't wait another season
Chorus
Today is not the day
that I will find my way
but I know, it's a long road anyway
If I don't stray, baby I swear I won’t delay
I won’t be coming home today
Today is not the day
that I will find my way
but I know, it's a long road anyway
If I don't stray, baby I swear I won’t delay
I won’t be coming home today

About Us
With memorable hooks and meaningful lyrics, Twelve O'Clock Knob is truly a band unlike others. Twelve O'Clock Knob came together in late 2008, when singer/songwriter Santiago Prada called upon childhood friend and fellow musician Danny "Bish" Bishop for help on a song. They had been playing music on and off since 2005, and after seeing that the chemistry was still there, they decided to embark on another chapter in their musical journey. They recruited the help of drummer Isaac Slone and guitarist Ian Robinson, both great musicians coming from musical backgrounds. The band was fortunate enough to play its first show at 202 Market, one of Roanoke's best live music venues, and they have been busy ever since, playing different venues ranging from Awful Arthur's to the Taubman Art Museum. Dedication and love for the music is what has driven these four musicians this far, and yet, this only the beginning.
