about

This is a piece that follows from my previous release, "Maybe So..." -Song 5 for the album that is shaping up.

lyrics

We start back to back, like a duel but I'm not wheeling
I've only got two choices: make a living, make a killing
If you slip over the edge I might catch a body or a feeling
When a hard rain falls, go get beneath a ceiling
You wouldn't listen to a shot across the bow
I know you can repair it, but I'm not telling how
Notifications, sacred texts, like the holy fire's in you now
You want me hooked on some false gods, you know that's something I can't allow
Too damn close, you're gonna have to back up from me
There's not a cure out there to make me warm up to you
Not a bottle, not a question, not power, not suggestion
I proofread your statement, I have a few corrections
The whole calendar was canceled
Then the last straw turned on to be an anvil
Knocked the whole thing off my back
Knocked the whole burden from my shoulders
You rode in on a glacier turning mountains into molehills
And I'm relaxed. that was the weight
A deep breath I blew away
