I thought, I saw a man brought to life
He was warm, he came around and he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry

Well, you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know
Seem to care what your heart is for
But I don't know him anymore

There's nothing where he used to lie
The conversation has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's fine, I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor

Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You're a little late, I'm already torn

So I guess the fortune teller's right
Should have seen just what was there
And not some holy light

It crawled beneath my veins
And now I don't care, I had no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can touch, I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor

Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You're a little late, I'm already torn, torn

There's nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's right, I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on this floor

Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see
The perfect sky is torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I'm ashamed
Bound and broken on the floor
You're a little late, I'm already torn, torn

Torn - Natalie Imbruglia (Alex Goot and Hannah Trigwell)

I've been writing music most of my life. Songs have always been the place where I've sorted out the events of day. If you trace these songs back far enough they tell a story of where I've been and what I've seen along the way. That said, most people don't have the time to sort through the hundreds of songs that have collected in the wake of my 20 plus years behind a piano, and that's why I love "Cecilia and the Satellite". As a song it encapsulate so much living against the back drop of a new life. Cecilia was written with the knowledge that my wife and I would soon meet our first child. With the hope of avoiding territory this type of song often treads, I tried to create a road map of the life I had lived leading up to that moment. One my daughter might look back on some day. A strange life of constant motion, spent traveling in the pursuit of music. A life I’ve nearly lost on more than one occasion and one which I am thankful for, now more than ever. Deep down this song is about more than me and where I’ve been, it’s about more than my daughter and what I want for her. It’s about being proud of where you come from and wanting the most for the people you share your world with.

LYRICS
I’ve locked myself in a hotel room
Then waited all night for the walls to move
I've loved some girls that I barely knew
I’ve made some friends, and I’ve lost some too
 
Crashed my car, I was seventeen
My mother in the seat riding next to me
The things I’ve learned from a broken mirror
How a face can change when a heart knows fear
 
For all the things my eyes have seen, the best by far is you
 
If I could fly, then I would know
What life looks like from up above and down below
I’d keep you safe, I’d keep you dry
Don’t be afraid, Cecilia, I’m the satellite
And you’re the sky
 
Oh, Oh
 
I've café crawled through Amsterdam
Been around the world with a punk rock band
And I’ve seen London, and I’ve played Japan
I’ve been knocked down, I got up again
 
For all the places I have been, I’m no place without you
 
If I could fly, then I would know
What life looks like from up above and down below
I’d keep you safe, I’d keep you dry
Don’t be afraid, Cecilia, I’m the satellite
And you’re the sky
 
Oh, Oh
I’m the satellite
And you’re the sky
 
For all the things my hands have held, the best by far is you
 
If I could fly, then I would know
What life looks like from up above and down below
I’d keep you safe, I’d keep you dry
Don’t be afraid, Cecilia, I’m the satellite
And you’re the sky
And you’re the sky
I’m the satellite
And you’re the sky
And you’re the sky

LYRICS:

When the sky comes crashing I won't wait for you
When the tables turn I'll watch you lose
I knew you were never gonna choose me too
Still I did everything I could do

'Cause I loved you
I loved the you you used to be
The you you were with me

I've heard that all is fair in love and war
And now I have to watch you kiss the girl you left me for
So how could you sink so deep
You're not half the man you thought you'd be

But I loved you
I loved the you you used to be
The you you were with me

Used to Be

Lyrics:

I may be lonely,
But I’m not alone.
Through my window,
I see the city lights, 
I can see other lives. 

When everything turns to grey,
And the sky defies its blue,
I can still hear the children play,
So why don’t you? 

For a city that never sleeps,
It’s sure quiet tonight. 

So sing me a song from your window,
Sing me a song from your heart.
Sing me a song that you never sang before, 
Let’s sing it while we’re apart. 

So much I never said before,
We never had the time.
But now look at us, 
All we have is time. 

Don’t let the distance fool you,
You can’t let the silence win.
Take this breath darling, and let us sing. 

For a city that never sleeps,
Let us all sing this song. 

So sing me a song from your window,
Sing me a song from your heart.
Sing me a song that you never sang before, 
Let’s sing it while we’re apart. 

A part of me, is apart from you.
and a part of you is apart from me. 

Sing me a song from your window.

I've Missed You

Flux

What’s going on?
The thieves have won,
And we’re the target.
The streets are strung,
With worn out tongues,
Oh but the sound,
It never drowns,
You don’t have feel alone in this flux.

So Let me know,
Let me know,
I’m on your side.
We’re letting go,
We’re letting go,
Of unknown times.
And if you’re feeling low,
As lonely I am,
You’re not alone,
You’re not alone.
We just move in flux.

The missing piece,
Of this symphony,
Is the beauty in the longing.
Oh now it’s all in your heart,
It’s all just part of who we are.
If it’s all too much,
All our time isn’t wasted,
Dreaming of better days. 
When this whole world keeps on shaking,
Oh, it’s willing us to change.

So Let me know,
Let me know,
I’m on your side.
We’re letting go,
We’re letting go,
Of unknown times.
And if you’re feeling low,
As lonely I am,
You’re not alone,
You’re not alone.
We just move in flux.

You’re not alone,
You’re not alone,
We’re just moving.
You’re not alone,
You’re not alone,
We’re just moving.
You’re not alone,
You’re not alone,
We’re just moving.
You’re not alone,
You’re not alone,
We’re just moving.

This song is about taking life lightly this upcoming year and counting your blessings instead of letting other people’s negativity put you in a negative headspace.

Lyrics:
People calling me oppressed 
Telling me to worry saying I should stress 
They projecting they sadness they mad I’m not depressed 
I just see life for what it is and I’m blessed 

Lately I’ve taken life lightly 
A day at a time it ain’t like me 
Worry and stress don’t Entice me 
I been taking life super lightly 

Lately I’ve taken life lightly 
A day at a time it ain’t like me 
Worry and stress don’t Entice me 
I been taking life super lightly 

Baby I been taking life lightly 
Ain’t nothing you can do to spite me 
My energy is up I’m shining brightly 
Life is looking up It’s so exciting 

Haters wanna hate on my gladness 
I don’t call it hate I call it madness 
Self love is something you should really practice 
Cause you attract envy like a magnet 

People calling me oppressed 
Telling me to worry saying I should stress 
They projecting they sadness they mad I’m not depressed 
I just see life for what it is and I’m blessed

Lately I’ve taken life lightly 
A day at a time it ain’t like me 
Worry and stress don’t Entice me 
I been taking life super lightly 

Lately I’ve taken life lightly 
A day at a time it ain’t like me 
Worry and stress don’t Entice me 
I been taking life super lightly 

I been lightly  I got high fees 
Hunnid bands that  don't excite me
 You don't like me  cuz you ain’t like me 
What you gonna do?  you gone fight me?
 I move lighting when I ain’t trying
 I've knew Xan when  we were skyping
 Now he typing  now we writing
 Final form it ain't even in sight yet
I got pain in my eyes
 Can't you see that I don't care
 I got fame on my mind 
Cuz my pictures everywhere 
Why you wasting your time 
On something that don't make sense

People calling me oppressed 
Telling me to worry saying I should stress 
They projecting they sadness they mad I’m not depressed 
I just see life for what it is and I’m blessed

Lately I’ve taken life lightly 
A day at a time it ain’t like me 
Worry and stress don’t Entice me 
I been taking life super lightly 

Lately I’ve taken life lightly 
A day at a time it ain’t like me 
Worry and stress don’t Entice me 
I been taking life super lightly 
Let me know what you think!
