Older than a young man wiser in these years Watch the leaves turn golden fall and disappear Can you understand that it easier to land in someone else’s hands Being young was overrated I just felt like I was waiting around Shorter than a tall man quicker on my feet Watch the world turn frozen got me chattering my teeth Can you understand that it’s easier to land in someone else’s hands Being warm is underrated so I’ll stay close until it goes away While I listen to the engine turn think a lot with a whole lot less to say Can you understand that its easier to land in someone else’s hands To be young was overrated I just felt like i was waiting around Can you understand that it’s easier to land in someone else’s hands Feeling warm is underrated so I’ll stay close until it goes away Til it goes away...

In my dreams I see you flying big machines I hear you laughing with your love Pleased with all you need These are the things that I dream about Yes and these are the things I dream about To tell you the truth I didn’t notice it was you I didn’t know it would take your life to change my point of view These are the things that I dream about Yes an these are the things I dream about No matter what the time alive inside your mind Alive inside your mind you’ll find me For ten long years we’ve been teaming up on fear Been in love with all we have made the best out of the bad These are the things that I think about Yes and these are the things that I think about Tell me the truth and I’ll tell it to you And we’ll lay down with confidence void of any consequences These are the things that I dream about Yes and these are the things that I dream about No matter what goes on love will live inside this home Love will live inside this home

Days & Miles 04:01
Ain’t got no time for being broken ain’t got no use to be concerned with time Just wading in the moment Independent underspoken for the day The day I find my way Been kicking through these years and counting This and that as a matter of fact I’ve been waiting And dying for today but what’s today And I can see for days and days and Miles and miles to come Days and days and miles and miles to come I’m not gonna dwell on things that should be This mystery shall unfold eventually Right now is all I have and all I need And I can see for days and days And miles and miles to come Days and days and miles and miles to come Cause I gotta keep holding on

Not Alone 02:57
Well I gotta leave gotta see this through I wanna be i wanna be with you Well everything is not for certain nah Everything is not in stone Come to me when you’re hurting you know you’re not alone You’re not alone not alone You’re not alone if your house is a home And your pride is a momma and child Still I’m prone to get down when the pressure gets to much And I can’t deny it Share your love with me in the morning cause tonight i had too much When I drink I tend to get to ramblin about nothin and fuck it all up Well I gotta leave gotta see this through I wanna be i wanna be with you Well everything is not for certain nah Everything is not in stone Come to me when you’re hurting you know you’re not alone You’re not alone not alone Time swings like a pendulum between levels of happy and sad All I know is that with you I’m in the right Your the finest that I’ve ever had Share your love with me in the afternoon so can be pleasant and clear How i love to be there for you darlin love to be there for you dear Well I gotta leave gotta see this through I wanna be i wanna be with you Well everything is not for certain nah Everything is not in stone Come to me when you’re hurting you know you’re not alone You’re not alone not alone

Medicine 03:38
A single bed is a lonely one This regret don’t feel so fun Staring at the morning stars Counting my recent scars Shower me down with medicine Here we go we go again So in love and it tears our skin Let me know when you wanna come in So I know I know you’re there A single floor is the coldest one A battered soul golds many gun hun Suppress my next regression Teach me a brand new lesson Hold me close till the day I die Here we go we go along Thought of where you go when you’re gone I hear the doubts and I hope they’re wrong Yes I know I know you’re there Know you’re there See your teeth crack through your chin A sign of life in a world of sin Up and through my nose The oxygen it flows Through the heart and back again Here we go we go again So in love and it tears our skin Let me know when you wanna come in So I know I know you’re there

Looking forward staring into space Taking inventory what can replace Heaven help me if i ever feel alone Always surrounded by a million telephones Every little person I know gets down From time to time but trust It’s gotta come around A different story when I was young I was afraid Of everything I thought that I could never change Now I’m a father and I’m flat out fuckin scared How we treat this world as if our kids ain’t there Every little person I know is guilty Him and her and you Especially me Especially me Moving backwards at least that what it seems And like i sang before I don’t know what it means It took so much to get here just to turn around And what we leave behind should never keep is down Every little person I know is guilty Him and her and you Especially me Especially me

about

This album is a compilation of bedroom style recordings and b-sides that I have held on to over the years. Some of the most honest music I have ever written, warts and all. Stripped down introspective lyricism matched with finger-picking acoustic style guitar.
