This is the first track in the 2019 January Songwriting project.

stretch the notes 
i loved to boast 
we kept it in the mist 

broke the bars 
and fell to far 
i woke up in the mess 

drove the lines 
i fell behind 
i wore it down to this 

true love 
this blue blood 
these worn lies 
these warm nights 

i was cross 
and bent the loss 
a twist on being wrong 

i was deaf 
sick of the death 
i blamed it all on songs 

seeing red 
i split my head 
the lyric and the tune
