Let’s go!
Sophomore year, got my 1920 Conn
Old enough to be pop’s horn
Grandpa bought it for me at a pawn store
I opened up the dusty case
Inhaled, it smelled musty
When I held the gold plated mouthpiece to my face
I played a note and the tone that came out when I'd blow
Was a bit pinched but deep enough to reach through a soul
The slide came broken, need to fix it
Then polish the silver shiney
Like this song, with my own spit
Now take a deep breath, relax, but keep roaring
All we've got is a sax and keyboard
But I swear there's a whole orchestra standing behind me
All we need’s to lay a chord progression then give the downbeat
Sweet strings are singing, though my backs to the wall
We get high and skydive together soaring
Music's a ride, emotional roller-coaster
I'm bleeding out feeling as if my water key’s leaking all over

So I'll pick up my trombone
Let me tell you what I know
This mouthpiece is a bridge to my soul
I've control at my fingertips
The world can be what it is
It don't even matter cause we're just jamming!

I wish I could express to you right now
What it's like for me trying to express myself
These feelings have become part of me
And it's hard for me to tear my heart out and bleed
‘Til all of me is inside out
Ow, but it's a beautiful pain and you're beautiful
Because it's contrasts in life
That make beauty, you've healed me
I'm giving you my soul, exposed to the bone
And although it’s hard
I've been compensated ten times over
Now all I see is black and white
Yet this is what I live for
These keys are what keep me breathing
Pitch black midnight serenades
Have painted over the darkness
With the vibrancy and color of your voice
All these nights spent alone on my back porch
Just one light bulb and the stars watching over
You don’t know what you do to me
I’m in love with your melody
So sing it again to me and set me free

So I'll pick up my trombone
Let me tell you what I know
This mouthpiece is a bridge to my soul
I've control at my fingertips
The world can be what it is
It don't even matter cause we're just jamming!

So exposed, leaking pain loudly
Condensation seeps from that rain cloud
Washing the hue out like you're a paint pallet
Rinse your face, watercolors drip to the ground
You look at me through those paint stained eyes
Don’t worry
It's ok, you can keep crying
Dampen my shoulder, douse my soul through too
The hurt bleeds out of your heart beat
That’s tender truth
I'm absorbed by your story
It's affected my own
Don't they say there's a moral to every tale told?
While I'm still trying to figure out mine
All that matters is in this moment we are so close
Resonate over me is my broken plea
So numbed by the bitter bite of the cold
I just want so bad to get that feeling back into my fingers
So I can feel the warmth despite all the snow

So I'll pick up my trombone
Let me tell you what I know
This mouthpiece is a bridge to my soul
I've control at my fingertips
The world can be what it is
It don't even matter cause we're just jamming!
