lyrics

I never thought I'd see you upon returning
Our lives collide and you're still where I left you
I know there'd be no reason to turn my back on you
I knew opportunity is upon the horizon
Finally there's no space between us to jam it out
Realizing negative progress emanating from you
You repeatedly conclude no one's into collaboration
You can't keep tempo,but you can keep ambition
So, now I say...

I never thought you'd be the one when our lives collide again
You'd give up on all of your dreams
You can never listen to the ones, either smart or are they dumb
Their opinion is not solid truth
Pushing on can help you find a way
Liberate yourself today! Pedal still in the turbid water
Listen to this mother fucking song
Even this, it's been so long, but it's finally recorded for you

You can't hear yourself think in this crowded space surrounded by people in pain
Finding a true belief, one actually out there, something tangible one can spare
I am no vessel for you. I lie, I am obtuse, and don't praise me for shit I can't do
I'd only fail you. Apathetic and socially confused, I can't pave no path for you

I don't want to hear you suffer, drowning in the dense fire
Pushing your way through and through
Find yourself today, don't give up on getting paid, your ambition is worth it to you
When I think of pushing harder
Bending space to lift you higher, the only thing stopping is you
You can make today be about lifting your fate, just stepping a day at a time

Listen to me...
You can't hear yourself think in this crowded space surrounded by people in pain
No wonder that...
Finding a true belief, one actually out there, something tangible one can spare
Don't compare yourself to me...
I am no vessel for you. I lie, I am obtuse, and don't praise me for shit I didn't do
Punch the wall because...
I'd only fail you. Apathetic and socially confused, I can't pave no path for you

about

Embur Vancouver, British Columbia

I am releasing these collections of songs that I've written throughout my life and never felt like they belonged to any other project I've work on with other people. 'Eight Songs To Remind Myself' was so somber introduction whereas 'Music Of The Paper Route' brings me to a place I'm more comfortable being in. ... more
