about

Single from the forthcoming EP Infant in collaboration with Nick Baker accompanying me on electric guitar
Recorded with Christian Wheeler in his lil Library recording room

lyrics

I was on a walk by the park when i saw a twisted tree
It had more to grow but it was big enough to climb and fit me
Just like a bird i watched the other children play
and roam the earth without a care of feeling pain
Oh how i wonder, why I must feel a sea of change
Well i guess my shores are much to sure for me to stay

I've got my eyes open where i'll find ordinary things amazing
I've got my high hopes in yellow lines broken in the streets i'm chasing
I'm chasing something bright & bold
something i can feel forever

Trading cards and games are a beautiful illusion for kids
You play the night away sleeping over frozen pizza soda sips
We'd talk about our future playing out a bit
Until a TV show would snap us out of it
Oh how I wonder, how life can make you doubt your ship
Before it sails, it sinks or fails to bring you bliss

I've got my eyes open where i'll find ordinary things amazing
I've got my high hopes in yellow lines broken in the streets i'm chasing
I'm chasing something bright & bold
something i can feel forever

So Take my hand and don't look back
Can't say how long our youth will last
Our youth it fades like a sunset
Some never rise again, will i rise again?
will i rise again?
rise again?

I've got my eyes open where i'll find ordinary things amazing
I've got my high hopes in yellow lines broken in the streets i'm chasing
I'm chasing something bright & bold
something i can feel forever
