Story behind the song
A strong driving groove based acoustic/vocal track. Each of the songs by Shane O'Brien tells a story within their lyrics and music, this one is another prime example. Shanes vocals are supported with him playing a Martin D28 acoustic guitar throughout the whole track, with an additional track using a 1962 Stratocaster coming into the final verse. The song is sung from the perspective of a friend who is a witness to the subject this piece. The story revolves around recognizing a habit an individual has, and its not a good type. Particularly, one that is so very real and how it's effects have caused noticeable changes in every part of the friends life.

1,000 Times Over (03:30)

Performed by Shane OBrien
It seems life has changed Babe. It seems like the worlds turned
Hum, it turned away
Seems like I got to hide Babe, seems like I got to lie babe
It seems like I got the world going away
But things have changed, things have changed
Things have changed, hum, hum. my Lord, theyve changed
Things have changed, a thousand times
Things have changed, I dont recognize anything
It seems like I had Balloons Babe, flying around me
Balloons with so many colors, so many worlds
And they popped in my mind babe, they popped in my veins babe
They popped in my brain babe, yes they moved me
Things have changed, I say things have changed
Things have changed, so many different ways
I aint lookin the same, hum, hum, I aint talkin the same
Things have changed, a thousand times over again
It seems like my hairs changed, like my face has grew long
It seems like everything, seems like everythings gone wrong, gone wrong
It seems like my colors changed, it seems like my pigment has gone away
It seems like my tan has gone away babe, it turned to gray
Things have changed, a thousand times over again
Things have changed, gone wasted away
Things have changed ya, things all have changed
Things have changed, a thousand times over again
A thousand times over again, a thousand times over again
A thousand times over again, a thousand times over again ya
It seems like I thought the dream, as your lips move a range
Not listening, to what any man could say
It seems the looks of the face babe, aint the same as yesterday
It aint the same as I predicted anywhere youd be
It seems like the color of the world, and the signs in the sun
Hum, hum, drew a little shadowy in my mind
It seems like a thousand times over and over and over and over again babe
Hum, hum, hum, you got me scared sh** less babe
Things have changed, things have changed baby
A thousand times over and over again
You know things have changed, oh no, things have changed
Things have changed and I know, and Ive prayed baby
Maybe theyll change one more day, change one more time for me
