Simple

Front Seat

Something More

Without You

Around the time this song was written, I experienced more anxiety than at any other time in my life. It wasn’t one big thing, there were several different issues that flooded my body with adrenaline with my first thoughts each morning. To cope with these fears felt like jumping into deep water, holding my breath for as long as possible and dive right through to the other side. But the deeper I was diving, the more I lost faith that I would ever be able to breathe again. Writing this song was like a Zen exercise for me. It helped me zero in on the moment and not let my anxieties get as big as they sometimes had gotten. It gave me strenght and confidence whenever I sung it, instead of being the frightened little boy I’d become over time.

Lyrics:
I will be diving
cannot wait I’m trying
washing of the waters
going in no matter if I’m prepared

and maybe
I did wrong so blame me
don’t you think I’m sorry
but you know I never have been so scared

And I’m pulled right under
all my life’s on mute
but I’m giving in
yes I’m giving in

I may never learn to run
but I’ll be soaking wet
I’m just having too much fun
not the tiniest regret

next and above me
to protect and love me
each and every morning
will you stay when nobody else is there

And I pull right under
all my life’s complete
and I’m giving in
yes I’m giving in

I may never learn to run
but I’ll be soaking wet
I’m just having too much fun
not the tiniest regret

I May Never Learn To Run

What Are We All Searching For

An unobtrusive voice tells conscious stories. Natural beauty needs no special effects. Between the slightly rusted bicycle spokes, the catchy melody may creak from time to time. Because that's life. The fuzz tone recalls the last upstream adventure. Silence rests its unvarnished feet in the muddy water. The songs send their gentle messages on paper-boat thought-journeys. The marathon may disengage from stress and hurry. It may pick two or three gooseberries from the bush. It may dream.
