Drive Away
Words & Music. Krone 

You’re at the top of my list 
Starring in a show I can’t miss 

Words fail I don’t know what to say 
The romance of my century 

I could go on dance in the dark 
But all it takes is one little spark 
to tip toe through a minefield steady handed even keeled 

Oh no one could have wrote it this way 
I never learned to play the game safe 
Sometimes all the light revealed 
Just when you thought your fate was sealed 
You’re fate was sealed 

And I never broke character throwing caution to the wind 
And I stay afloat when storm clouds come raging in 

And when my calm exterior gives way to a second act 
They want a broke inferior victim of circumstance 

Bet it all bet it all bet it all on her 
Forever ever ever ever 
Bet it all bet it all bet it all on her 
Forever ever ever ever 

You’re on the plane at sunset
Tears running down your face is all wet 

The wind at my back
Smoke in the sand 

The greatest story 
Left unplanned

Oh I could go on living this way 
Cause all it took was one little flame 
To light my way from out of the dark 
Racing blood run through my heart 

Now you’ll find me flying through the gears
Just where you stood in my rear view mirror 

In no time I’ll be back at your door 
Saying come home forever ever ever ever 

Baby don’t cry when I drive away 
Baby don’t cry I’m not leaving you oh never ever 
Bet it all bet it all bet it all on her 
Forever ever ever ever 
Bet it all bet it all bet it all on her 
Forever ever ever ever 

Don’t cry when I drive away 
Baby don’t cry Im not leaving you oh never ever ever 

Forever ever ever ever 
Forever ever ever ever 

In no time I’ll be back at your door 
Saying come home forever ever ever ever

Drive Away

Amor Fati
words & music. kyle krone

they'll never see you coming
from the dark edge of a dusty road
when they try to sell you something
remember you’re already gold 

when dark clouds have a silver lining 
I labor under storms that rage 
I guess we all chase something 
or write our stories off the page 

I always hang tough and
I pull through 
create and destroy 
its all I ever do 

And I cant help but crack a smile when you come around
when you fly too high they try to aim and shoot you down 

Dancing on a blade with razor sharpness 
spin the wheel again 
its keeps you on it 
 
I never saw you coming
from green mountains to the sunny coast 
sometimes you just get lucky 
we’ve been luckier than most 

I want to dive right in it 
soaking up this dopamine 
if love has no limits 
our world is evergreen 

what a feeling I’m feeling
what a dream 
I must be dreaming

I have no fear
I can’t believe this 
what a feeling I’m feeling  

Dancing on a blade with razor sharpness 
spin the wheel again 
its keeps you on it 

what a feeling I’m feeling
what a dream 
I must be dreaming

I have no fear
I can’t believe this 
what a feeling I’m feeling  

Dancing on a blade with razor sharpness 
spin the wheel again 
it keeps you honest

Amor Fati

Angels 
Words & Music. Krone 

Oh that fate you’d been living 
Your old California life
Days wasting heaven 
and the endless summer nights

Though I might have found you down there 
across the border line 
I can’t be forgotten for the sins I've left behind

And its hard not to go back there now
When you’re still on my mind
and I can’t seem to hold on to 
the angels passing by

All my angels fly away 
All my angels float away  (yeah) 
Now I’m in to deep to let go

We both had once imagined 
better people on the other side
This was no fleeting answer 
but a promise of the divine 
It’s a soft but reckless memory  
that soothes my broken mind 
that I vowed I would remember 
before it washed away with tides

All my angels fly away (yeah)
All my angels float away (yeah)
All my angels fly away (yeah)
All my angles…

Now I wish we could go back there 
its not me who gets to decided 
how the story will be written 
If blood runs or divides
I’ve got everything I need now 
please don’t apologize
Its more beautiful than I remember
when I set off on this ride
Now I’m in too deep to let go 
Now I’m in too deep to let go 

Now the darker years that followed 
are clear in hindsight 
Busy learning lessons
how we lived back at the time
And I try to recall now 
how it felt when we blurred the lines
Between who we thought we were then 
and what future we’d decided 

All my angels fly away (yeah)
Al my angles float away (yeah)

High Life - The Shys

Slide Right On - The Shys

Rare unreleased live recording of The Shys covering Johnny Cash's "Ring Of Fire" 

Ring Of Fire - The Shys (Johnny Cash Cover)

Ryan Sheckler asked me to write him an anthem to skate to, this is what I came up with.

Pyramids

The advice from the wise will change my vision

Carry out whats in my heart with precision 

They break you down with sticks and stones

You build your pyramids with flesh and bone

First time through it I felt the resistance

Second time around they can hold me down, like the water always finds a crack I'll burn every bridge and I wont look back

I move mountains I cross deserts ancient kings fields of energy

Weigh no risk taking it future find out how far one can do

Refuse to exist in the grey twilight that knows not victory or defeat 

Turn my failures inside out

Irreplaceable the spark that starts that starts the fire

Blur the line sacrifice desire

You want the sword without the stone

Build an empire surrounded and alone

Gaining strength in the eye of the storm

Remaining clam with perfect form

I climb I cross rivers

Smiling in the face of my enemies

Nature of the risk I'm taking

Push it till the point of breaking

Sometimes the only way out is deeper in I'll sink to swim

There is no light without the darkness

I'll use the diamonds to cut through glass

Separate the future, learning from the past

No puzzle in the pieces orchestrate a vision

Don't let confusion breed indecision

Unlock the mystery blind folded I can hear the sound

How lost will I become until I'm found

I stay focused I gain distance I'm stronger than you'd like me to be

Great devotion I cross oceans stand along conquered cities

The weakness of hate the strength of faith

What lies before what lies ahead

More important what lies within 

If they break you down with sticks and stones then build your pyramids with flesh and bone

If they break you down with sticks and stones then build your empire with flesh and bone

One listen to the bittersweet melodies and you can almost feel the wind blowing through your hair as your cruise down the California coast. In short, these tunes are a breath of fresh air. “Hiding in Plain Sight” swirls wistfulness with sophisticated optimism. - The Owl Mag

The charisma of Mick Jagger, the swagger of Greg Dulli and the songwriting chops of Julian Casablancas- Atomic Ned

Something about Krone’s disposition struck me instantly; a quiet confidence exuded from his calming, yet soulful croon. Not overly flamboyant in stage presence, typical of most front men, Krone’s innate ability to capture the crowd’s attention with little effort was intriguing. - Daily Titan

Down tempo, dreamscape style with reverb and distortion interplay- Paper Mag

He seems to have this, "new-wave pop for a new generation" on lock down. It won't be leaving anytime soon so everyone should crack open a cold one and enjoy this summer.- 1FTP (One For The People) 

This freshly released material is definitely a new musical direction for Krone and we are excited to share. - One Thirty BPM

Its a strong solo debut judging from the first three singles Driving Deloreans, a great rock pop song with a driving rhythm and catchy choruses, 1963 a more uptempo pop/dance track and Hiding In Plain Sight another catchy pop/rock track that has been featured in J. Crew commercials. - I Think You'll Like This Song

A solid "play through" album of addictive tunes that seem to come from such a genuine space. More musicians should adopt Kyle's intuitive attitude. - BL!SS Magazine 

“Hiding in Plain Sight,” “For Those Who Think Young,” and “1963” are like warms rays of sunshine smacking you across the face while cruising down the California coast. Doesn’t get much better than that folks. - The Owl Mag

oozing melodies over an electronic backdrop that could have sprung from the gear of New Order, Depeche Mode or Joy Division. - Buzz Bands LA

He’s the ultimate songbird. - Idol Radec
