Don’t want to cry myself to sleep anymore. I’m only wasting away, here in this bed all alone. I won’t give in to this emptyness invading my soul. And somehow deep inside, I doubt you’ll realize I’m gone.
Regret seems endless now. The passion between us dies. What I once felt for you, there are no words to describe.
You’re so oblivious, to my thoughts and feelings. When it comes to us, I’ve stopped believing. It’s obvious, when you hear me cry. Do you care at all? You make it obvious.
I’m through with all the excuses. There’s no need to explain. Living without a conscience, you believe it’s a game. I’m sinking into regret, this pain you can’t rearrange. To feel resentment inside, is an assessment of blame.
You say I’m the only one. You’ve made your choice again. I’ll spend the night alone, feeling nothing.

Obvious is quite possibly my best fictional piece to date. When Visualize was coming together as an album, I saw a lot of my friends struggling in their relationships. A lot of their problems were very Obvious. This song sums it up in a way that I think almost anyone can relate to.
Obvious has been performed live, since late 2003 and was always a crowd favorite no matter where we performed it. It still remains the hardest song for me to pull off live, due to the intricate way I wrote the lyrical criss-cross style dynamics of the verses.
We have shot 2 different videos for this song, but only one has been released. The first was only of Carlos and myself and was the 2nd video we ever shot for the band. It was done in downtown Houston at night, on the riverwalk. I cannot say if it will ever be released. The Official video for Obvious was shot on the Metro Lightrail in Downtown Houston, Texas and is available on our Official Myspace Page and You Tube.
Feel free to check it out along with our other music videos.
