lyrics

Wrap me up in the stars tonight,
it's warmth I want and
they're burning bright.
Or maybe it's the alcohol;
when it's in my veins
I tend to get it wrong.
Oh and it doesn't help
when platitudes flow from your mouth.
I blame the toxins swimming inside;
I stumble asleep alone cursing this night.

Brought to consciousness
by a jackhammer pounding in my head.
Now I'm staring at a bright white screen;
pounding keys to the sound of misery.
And as this nausea grows
words multiply, yeah my anger flows
in little black lines on a once pure page
till all you see is black; till all you see is hate.

And then the machine coughed it out.
And I scribbled, scratched, scrawled,
stabbed out my name.
I folded it up and laid it on the place
that you go to escape.

And then I watched the sunset;
and rise…
again and again and again and again
as the dust set;
and you let it settle…
until it got so deep you can't remember
what lies below.

So I'll wipe from my face this eager grin
yeah I'll burn stupid thoughts of
"what could've been".
And I'll say good riddance
to this stupid pipe dream
with the hope that someday this will mean
nothing to me.

I know what I like and aspire to write like the bands and songwriters that inspire me while at the same time putting my own personal stamp on the music. In the words of Frank Turner, "I know I don't break new ground, many have travelled this sound, but I try to make it sound like home..." ... more
