I've been seeing more and more articles in the news about mental health issues in these trying times. If you have a moment, give this song a listen and really try to listen to the lyrics.  Thank you.
Wrote this song to help raise awareness of the anguish and suffering of anyone afflicted by any form of mental illness.

Verse 1
These voices in my head
   I hear them calling but there’s emptiness in there.
These voices in my head
   The echos bouncing in the darkness of my mind.
These voices in my head
   The chatter blurring thoughts that are barely there.

Chorus:	
I feel emptiness and fear, of being all alone.
I sit and wonder, anybody see the pain.
I’m scared and hopeless dare not share my shame.
Loneliness consumes me, eats away the ye-ears 

Verse 2
These voices in my head
   I dare not dream, I fear nightmares and pain.
These voices in my head
   Fill me with sorrow, I see no end in sight.
These voices in my head
   Make me insecure and bring me guilt and shame.

<Chorus>

Instrumental:

Verse 3
These voices in my head
   Suffer through the pain trying to hold out my hand.
These voices in my head
   The crushing darkness breaks my heart consumes my mind.
These voices in my head
   Does anybody notice, does anybody care.

<Chorus>

Verse 4
These voices in my head
   I ask why, there are no tears when I cry.
These voices in my head
   No one hears the silent screams in my mind.
These voices in my head
   You don’t understand when I tell you I’m fine.

<Chorus>

Outro: (with just guitar and synths)
These voices in my head
   I hear a soothing voice reaching for my hand.
These voices in my head
   I see a light, where darkness filled my soul.
These voices in my head
   Someone heard my cry, now I’am alone no more.
These voices in my head
   These voices slowly fading from my mind

As I mentioned, last month I broke my leg!  6 weeks in to this I am realizing its going to take a while to get back to normal.  

This track, well more of beat is open for anyone to take and finish.  Originally Jay and I had discussed it being a Beastie Boy type of piece.  Time has gotten away from me...as well as a leg. 

The Welcome Parade has 6 tracks in production and I am behind schedule on everything.  

So hey if you want to take this and do something cool to it.. you have my blessing and just be sure to give me a credit!  

Peace and love my friends and see/hear you soon!

A Million Miles Away (Lyrics)

I've Seen So Much In This World
Been A Changing Of The Weather
There's Been So Much I Have Learned
Now I'm Floating Like A Feather

I've Found A Way To Your Heart
Let's Drift Away To The Stars
A Million Miles Away
A Million Miles Away

I Guess It's Always The Same
Nothing Lasts Forever
There'll Always Be A New Day
Let's Shine A Light Together

I've Found A Way To Your Heart
Let's Drift Away To The Stars
A Million Miles Away
A Million Miles Away

I've Seen So Much In This World
Been A Changing Of The Weather
There's Been So Much I Have Learned
Now I'm Floating Like A Feather

I've Found A Way To Your Heart
Let's Drift Away To The Stars
A Million Miles Away
A Million Miles Away

I Know You Know
There's A Place For Us
I Know You Know
There's A Place For Us

Lyrics 

Verse 1
There’s another fork in the road
Wish I could decide....
Feels like a wolf is tearing at my side

Interlude 1: 

Verse 2
Sometimes you hit the wall
You can’t bridge the divide
Feels like the heat will never subside

Interlude 2: 

Refrain 1
Feels like I’m walking alone at night
Feels like a wolf tearing at my side
 
Verse 3
A full moon is begging to rise
Wish I could fly....
Feels like a wolf is tearing at my side

Interlude 3


Refrain
Feels like I’m walking alone at night
Feels like a wolf tearing at my side
Feels like a wolf tearing at my side
