Song information
In the song, Geiger sings about that he always wants what he cannot have, but he always gives it a try, even though he knows he might not get what he wants or the way he wants it to be.
Release
The song can also be found on his 2005 EP Step Ladder under the name "Confidence". The EP version was released on September 6, 2005, but did not receive much airplay then.
