Awake in November
03:50

There was a cold wind blowing through my window
I was told that’s just the way it will always be
Get a job, pay the bills, listen up, and keep your mouth shut
So I’d drink and I’d smoke to escape my reality
Then I found what truly matters
As the leaves all hit the ground
Hidden way down deep inside
And the clouds all start to clear
Now I’m living with my heroes
There’s a whole new life for me
And I will fight to keep us alive
Now I’m awake in November and starting to see
The world is revolving but not around me
I can finally breathe
So bring on December, we’re not gonna freeze
Little heads on our shoulders
Your arms around me
We are finding peace
I couldn’t care less about your haircut
Or the lack of makeup on your face
You have everything I need
Still I say a lot of shit I don’t mean
I am trying to never let you down
Now I’m awake in November and starting to see
The world is revolving but not around me
I can finally breathe
So bring on December, we’re not gonna freeze
Little heads on our shoulders
Your arms around me
We are finding peace
We built something
From nothing
Built something
From nothing
Now I’m awake in November and starting to see
The world is revolving but not around me
I can finally breathe
So bring on December, we’re not gonna freeze
Little heads on our shoulders
Your arms around me
We are finding peace
We can finally breathe
We built something
From nothing
Ain’t that something

Who I Am
04:00

There’s a darkness in my mind
Makes me feel like I’m falling behind
All of the shadows bring me back
Cold and heartless war with time
Panic disorder distorting the light
Give me a moment so I can divide and conquer
And finally find
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Born as a soldier and thrown to the fire
Holding a shield to protect my desire
Now I’m a father to hold and inspire
As the world spins around and around and around
The sound of her voice really makes it clear
The roads that were broken have led me here
Give me moment so I can rewind and thank you
For helping me find
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am

Homesick

I took a chance, took a risk, 08-01-14
She woke me up in the morning saying this is over
Lost the connection with my only friend, doing lines in the den
I swallowed pills to ignore this cold disclosure
But i don’t regret all the things I’ve left
That have brought me here to Kansas City
And I won’t forget you and I could never let you
Slip away or let the memory fade.
I’ve been homesick for a couple years now
And I miss the friends who hung out
But my wife and I are great
We bought a house in our new state
Ya know I need to hug my mother
And score a touchdown with my brother
And I really cannot wait for my dad to grill us a steak
Still I don’t regret a single thing I left
That brought me here to Kansas City
And I won’t forget you and I could never let you
Slip away or let the memory fade
Well you know I used to be the one
Who would run away from the sun
And find the darkest room to hide in
And never let the light in
Now I’m out on the run
My new story has just begun
This time the focus for my life is
Love, respect, and kindness

Who’d you think you are, tryin’ to move to fast
Ignoring truth, playing hide and seek
Fold your hands when it gets too deep
We are waiting for a courageous lead
I’m tired of feeling the wind
Blowing away and I cannot breathe
(Take the wheel and start to steer
In the face of doubt
It’s on our heels
Exhaust your face, get lost in feels
The sound of bass, sound of bass, sound of bass…)
Oooh, do you think the world should bow at your feet?
Climb to higher ground
Walk the road that you claim to seek
Oooh, do you long for the world that we used to be?
Would you dig her grave
In the dead of night in a quarantine
Who, who do you live for
When the sun goes down
Falling, falling, too deep
Who, who do you die for
When the sun goes down
Falling, falling to sleep
(Take the wheel and start to steer
In the face of doubt
It’s on our heels.
Exhaust your face, get lost in feels.
The sound of bass, sound of bass, sound of bass…)
Oooh, do you think the world should bow at your feet?
Climb to higher ground
Walk the road that you claim to seek
Oooh, do you long for the world that we used to be?
Would you dig her grave
In the dead of night in a quarantine
Who do you die for? When the sun goes down…

Time Is the Enemy
04:20

Sunlight coming after me
And I need to find another way
Get me through the day
It’s got me in a mood
Why’s the second hand gotta be so mean
It walks beside me and pulls on my sleeve
It’s making me nervous
‘Cause I’m at war with the clock and I am getting defeated
Every move that I make is like I’m ten more behind
(Every time, time, every single time, time)
Hey! Hey! Time is the enemy
Hey! Hey! It gets the best of me
Maybe someday far away from here, from here
We’ll start anew under the same moon
Man, my mind is wandering
Why’s the second hand gotta be so mean
It lies down beside me and counts down the sleep
That I won’t get tonight
‘Cause I’m at war with the clock and I am getting defeated
Every move that I make is like I’m ten more behind
(Every time, time, every single time, time)
Hey! Hey! Time is the enemy
Hey! Hey! It gets the best of me
One more word alarm clock and I will smash you to pieces
The time I lie in my bed is really not your concern
Hey, hey, hey, hey
‘Cause I’m at war with the clock and I am getting defeated
Every move that I make is like I’m ten more behind
(Every time, time, every single time, time)
Hey! Hey! Time is the enemy
Hey! Hey! It gets the best of me
(Time is the enemy, it gets the best of me)

Feels so Much

True lust is something I’ve never tried
So please don’t ever question me
For this lifetime running time moves slow
I spin in circles questioning
Who I am
Cry with your last words,
“Let me breathe. Just let me breathe.”
You’ll suffocate
Your insides will give up
Deteriorate
Don’t ask me to save you
You’re much too late
Your skin is now peeling
Your breath has been tamed
It’s your turn now
You’ll suffocate
Your insides will give up
Deteriorate
Don’t ask me to save you
You’re much too late
Your skin is now peeling
Your breath has been tamed
It’s your turn now
And I’m leaving
Stop breathing
I’m walking away
You’re scratching the surface
With nothing to say
I didn’t deserve this
You’re wanting to change
But I’m not through this hurting
Walking away
As you’re left there burning
I’m walking away
You’re scratching the surface
With nothing to say
I didn’t deserve this
You’re wanting to change
But I’m not through this hurting
Walking away
And you’re not deserving of me
Tomorrow just might change my mind
But I can’t stand here and waste all my time
Tomorrow might put me a step behind
So I can’t stand here and waste your time
Tomorrow will never change my mind
And all we had was a waste of our time
Cuz you lied
You lied
You’re a fucking liar

Drifting away further each day
Head full of rage
Wrong way into cyberspace
You’re all alone, holding your phone
Where is your home, calling in code
Every word you say is on a replay
One more time, the fire burns
You don’t know what hit you
One more time, we need to learn
We don’t know what to do
How many nights will you lie to yourself
To make up an excuse why your life isn’t changing
Get back in line, pull your pride back behind
Before the breakdown maybe you could use some
Medicine
Pushing and pushing with nothing to prove
To the ones you accuse you’re the master in trolling
How many nights ‘til you die in your shell?
Time to break out, maybe you could change yourself
Acceleration, digital feud
Misinformation leaking through on the morning news
It’ll blow your mind
Kill you inside
Dirty little secret, pretty lies
You won’t believe them until you’re left with nothing
Divide and multiply
One more time, the fire burns
You don’t know what hit you
One more time, we need to learn
We don’t know what to do
How many nights will you lie to yourself
To make up an excuse why your life isn’t changing
Get back in line, pull your pride back behind
Before the breakdown maybe you could use some
Medicine
Pushing and pushing with nothing to prove
To the ones you accuse you’re the master in trolling
How many nights ‘til you die in your shell?
Time to break out, maybe you could change yourself
Medicate

Lost

Leave your footprints in the sand
And watch the waves come crashing in
To reclaim your energy
And take you back to sea
Live with purpose and understand
The day will come when the way you smile
Becomes a memory
Go build your legacy
‘Cause the people that we touch
And the bridges that we cross
Won’t be lost
And the pages that we turn
And the lessons that we learn
Won’t be lost
As the clouds move overhead
The world moves on after our days end
We are the universe
Open up your mind and listen
Go move mountains, travel new lands
Learn from mistakes, open up your hands
Our time is limited
Go be anything you want my child
‘Cause the people that we touch
And the bridges that we cross
Won’t be lost
And the lessons that we learn
Through the pages that we turn
Won’t be lost
