Versus

Versus is an American indie rock band formed in 1990 by Richard Baluyut, Fontaine Toups and Edward Baluyut in New York City. Richard and Fontaine were to remain the two core members throughout the band's history. The band was noted for their marriage of indie pop songwriting and vocal harmonies to the "loud-soft" dynamics of grunge and alternative rock. They were also noted for their proficient and disciplined musicianship and for their credo of "meat, sports and rock", neither of which had much currency in the early 1990s American indie scene. They named themselves after the Mission of Burma album Vs. more »

A Little Girl from the village isolated
From all the cities that she will grow in
In the sunset, she has found premonitions
Of what the world would be like in 20 Years

And she has found all solace
Above the sky with the Pink and Blue lights
The clouds were Orange
As she reveled into her innocence

It's like a distant dream
Close enough to reach the highest towers
In the Heart of a City

Flying through the clouds
While standing in a street
All the memories come rushing all to me

A Little Girl from the village isolated
From all the cities that she will grow in
In the sunset, she has found premonitions
Of what the world would be like in 20 Years

And she has found all solace
Above the sky with the Pink and Blue lights
The clouds were Orange
As she reveled into her innocence

The Little Girl was me
I'm bursting through the seams
A walking memory and
I feel all the POWER
Grew up in melodies
Where the grass is greener
Now that I'm older
I can see it all

I grew up in the violence of the world
Knocking at the door and knocking at my body
At the age of 2, I wondered 
"How am I alive?"
I grew up feeling loveless and battered
By the words and the punches
Of strangers that live for the hatred
I grew up being told that I'm "too much" or
"I am not enough" for me to be wanted
So, The Little Girl in me had to rise up to her dreams
She would wake up screaming in the crack of DAWN
To see the Solar Power of a new horizon
To see the beginning at the edge of DAWN

And now I'm 23 and I'm filled with wonders
From the ray of the Sun to the call of Thunders
I thank The Little Girl that's in my memories
That she held on and stayed for the Pink sunrise

It's like a distant dream
High enough to reach the highest towers
In the Heart of a City

Flying through the clouds
While standing in a street
All the memories come rushing all to me

The Little Girl was me
I'm bursting through the seams
A walking memory and
I feel all the POWER
Grew up in melodies
Where the grass is greener
Now that I'm older
I can see it all

All the hurt, all the pain I wore with every drop of tear
Has come and go and now I'm moving on into the future
Every lash of wounds from the battle scars that I endured
From the war, I won, I move on from the traumas

All the tears and fears I shed
All the hate and violence
I mend my soul that ached from
The tremors of abuse that I lived through

In the end, the Sun will rise
And Time will heal the broken
What's left will be Love as the DAWN
Comes Rising from The Little Girl in me

Everybody's so obsessed about being young
Staying young, you know, like I mean it's cool that
You wanna remain youthful in whatever you do
But I'm not that kind of person that wants to remain
In an, In an era of repetitiveness
I wanted to, you know, I want- I want to explore the World
I don't wanna be stuck in a cycle of endless predictability
And I wanna move on and move towards the future
And I don't mind growing old because growing old means
I'm moving forward and I just want people to know that
Just because you're growing old doesn't mean you can't be youthful
That you can't be the best version of yourself, you still can be
And what matters is you have yourself intact because this world has a
Tendency to dissect and micro-manage whoever you are and whatever
The soul is and I just hope that you the listener will live life FULLY
Despite the pain of living it all, so yeah, think, I think it'd be cool
