This past year I recorded some music with my sister Sarah. Here's a song that came to me one night when I couldn't sleep. The middle verse is inspired by one of my friends who suffers from depression, and at night when he couldn't sleep he would just drive around backroads and think and think, trying to figure out life...
Lyrics:
One by one, two by two
We shuffle up and down the avenue
Left ain't right and right is wrong
And none of this matters anymore
But I'm not hopeless and I'm not sad
Don't say I'm angry 'cause I'm not mad
I'm just nothing and nothing can't be that
And people stop and listen to me
I'm not crazy
But then again maybe I am
Oh the back roads and the alleys
The night skies and the valleys
Driving around is all I ever seem to do
And I'm just thinking and it's not easy
Because there's nothing
And then there's something
I see everything, I see all things
Between me and you
And people stop and listen to me
I'm not crazy
But then again maybe I am
Oh angels, demons
Gnashing, screaming
Moths and dust, bones and rust
And that's what's left of all of us
And people stop and listen to me
I'm not crazy I'm not crazy
And people stop and listen to me
I'm not crazy I'm not crazy
I'm not crazy I'm not crazy
