Everything abiout this is fantatsic.  Even looking at the "graph", you can see how the piece is always growing... going "Home".  I love the sentiment, the Message, the artrwork, the whole thing, Eric.  Bravo!

I just love how the song builds up as it progesses. This is the kind of beautiful music one could find in the 70's. Reminds me of The Moody Blues,  Led Zeppelin, all those giants. Bravo guys. Beautiful 5:40 all around. Thank you!!

Great work, brother! Really enjoyed it from top to bottom!

So excellently done, woww...such a wonderful work, Alex!

You nailed it Eric! Truth in your words, production is major league. Works for my ears and soul👍😍

Love the way the chorus kicks in. I can SO relate to the lyrics. Great song with terrific production, Eric! Love it.

Interesting that they reclassified this.  Rock is a pretty broad category.  It's a cool song, Eric.  I think I mentioned before how it reminded me of the theme song to "Firefly."  One of my favorite shows.  Godspeed, my friend.

Lyrics:

Quarter life crisis
I don’t wanna grow old anyway
Cut my hair and I stain my shirt
All the darkness blocks the hurt

Is it always like this?
Struggling with the bills and microwave
Crush the bugs beneath my shoe
Make a wish that won’t prove true

‘Cause I am nothing to you
You’re just a child with eyes of blue
Sitting in a Metro ’95
Windows down keep the dream alive

Small town with nothing
Working 9-5 no extra pay
But I am proud of where I’m from
A little valley where no-one comes

I used to know her mother
She got forced to move out by the state
Corporate greed with a fancy bow
Take a memory, ruin a show

‘Cause I am nothing to you
You’re just a child with eyes of blue
Sitting in a Metro ’95
Windows down keep the dream alive
Oh alive

Oh I am nothing to you
You were my brother I never knew
Sitting in a Metro ’95
Windows down keep the dream alive

I am nothing to you
You’re just a child with eyes of blue
Sitting in a Metro ’95
Windows down keep the dream alive

we might 
you’re on the firing line

cause i’m a rebel
and i swear i’m destined for your dreams

High And Wasted

High and Wasted (Radio Edit) [feat. Sock Drawer]

Inspired by a conversation with my Grandmother, I increasingly realise the value of time. Make memories with those you love, because it may be your only legacy.

Fading Memories

"HOME"

I've had enough, of all this stuff,			
That brings me down, I'm all but drowned.	
I don't need much, for my life's clutch.
I have no crutch as such, no loving touch.	

I'll call my bluff, and pretend to be oh so tough.
Pack a bag and take a drag, pacing in a restless zig zag.
Too many sunsets wasted on this scene.
Too many pockets emptied over burning kerosene.

I see the train passing every day from my front porch.
Burn down this house of pain with a blazing torch.

I'm leaving this town.  I'm leaving this frown.  I'm coming home. 

Sleeping with snakes and fakes, the venom, it's all high stakes.
Those razor blades of lies, hidden in freshly baked pies.
Stuck in the mud and always, swallowing blood.
No voice to talk or lamp to rub.  No path to walk, or heart to flash flood.

Gotta leave this place fast, I always knew it would never last.
I'm still alive, my time's not at all passed.
My hands are tied and my, love has lied,
To them, to you, and to me myself and I.

I hear the train's whistle calling my name to hike,
Beyond the prickly thistle, just itching to strike.

I'm leaving this town.  I'm leaving this frown.  I'm coming home. 
I've lost and I've found.  I won't turn around.  I'm coming home.

Life is like the gift that keeps on taking,
Not the gift that keeps on giving, or forgiving.

Life is like the gift that keeps on aching,
And the gift that you keep on making. 

I've packed my bags, and left behind my rags.
I've shaved face, and combed my hair, neatly in place.
I took a breath that's deep, behind the door that I used to weep,
Suitcase firmly in hand, flying away to land. 

Day after day the door's shadow shapes, a wedge upon the floor,
As I open slowly it gets bigger, from the sunset's roar.
I take my steps a new, into the sunset's orange hue.
Across the field the train, has on their list my last and first name

It's not so easy using decision's sharp knife.
Better to slowly breathe than risk cutting the cord to life.
I hear the train's whistle calling my nerves to strike,
Like a call to action for a suffocating pike.

I'm leaving this town.  I'm leaving this frown.  I'm coming home. 
I've lost and I've found.  I won't turn around.  I'm coming home.

I'm leaving this town.  I'm leaving this frown.  I'm coming home. 
I've lost and I've found.  I won't turn around.  I'm coming home.

I'm coming home.
