Where Were You When I Had Covid

Journey to the Inside is a voyage through the changes in ones life that lead them to the core of who they are.  With every twist and turn, everything on the outside changes. The colors in our lives show the moods and feelings that we have on the inside.  We journey, we travel, and we ultimately find out who were are when we get to the inside.

Journey To The Inside Final

You can drive me crazy
Every time you say my name
So I put my hands on my ears
Isn't it amazing
How I lit up like a flame
Smothered me and I disappeared
And I guess that I should miss you,
But I don't want you back...

Chorus:
I don't even know what I was thinking
Cuz I don't want you back
It's so nice to not have you hanging around
And I won't miss you wasting every weekend
Cuz I don't want you back
And I'm feelin up to letting you down
Cuz I don't want you, ohhh ohhh
Sorry I won't be there watchin it sink in
That I don't want you back 

I totally ignored you
Were you talkin to yourself?
You get a lil boring sometimes (blah blah blah)
So I moved on cause now I see
That you and I are history
And I hate to break it to you
But you're all out of time

Chorus

Don't you wish that I would dream of you?
Sorry but I don't remember,
I've never been a good pretender
If there's anything that I can do,
Well just keep it to yourself
Just keep it to yourself, ooo

Chorus

I Don't Want You Back

Working on “Turned to Stone” with Phil Trickey has been an incredible experience. He resurrected I song I had written a couple of years ago and gave it a brand new breath of life by adding an exquisite musical platform to the project. In addition, he was a pleasure to work with, always kind, respectful and professional. I have nothing but words of gratitude and I truly recommend his work to all artists looking for a classy producer, who not only respects the artist’s vision but who also takes it to the next level.

Please visit him on his website www.trickeysound.com and kindly follow him on Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/trickey-sound, you won’t be disappointed!

Lyrics:
Turned to Stone 

Walking alone
Heading for home
Wearing tight ropes
Coiled around my body 

I don’t belong
I can’t respond
I’m chained to this world
Where I’ve got nobody

I reach out my hand
Hoping a kind old soul holds it, 
Please don’t ignore me
I reach out my hand
Searching for someone to hold me
I’m sinking deep in quicksand

It hurts to feel I’ve turned to stone
It hurts to know I’m all alone
It hurts too much to feel this void
I’m drowning
It hurts to feel I’ve turned to stone
It hurts to know nobody’s home
It all just cuts me to the bone
I’m drowning

Oh
Oh oh no

I check my cell phone
No incoming calls
No tweets, no texts, 
No inboxes, nothing

They laugh, but I don’t
I’m so on my own
I go about life
Without being noticed

I reach out my hand
Hoping a kind old soul holds it, 
Please don’t ignore me
I reach out my hand
Searching for someone to hold me
I’m sinking deep in quicksand

It hurts to feel I’ve turned to stone
It hurts to know I’m all alone
It hurts too much to feel this void
I’m drowning
It hurts to feel I’ve turned to stone
It hurts to know nobody’s home
It all just cuts me to the bone
I’m drowning

Oh...

Walking alone
(It hurts to feel I've turned to stone)
Heading for home
Wearing tight ropes
Coiled around my body 

I don’t belong
I can’t respond
I’m chained to this world
Where I’ve got nobody

Stone... stone... stone...
It hurts to feel I've turned to stone.
