Written in early November 2015 one month before a brief stint of recording on the Northern California coast.
lyrics
It seems i'm told that I am way to young and bold,
but still way to old to tease/
I've been trying to get away from the ways that I was raised for so long now/
We've had a long line of politics tellin we don't thrive in our wild, wild west/
I've been trying to get away from the ways that I was raised for so long now/
But i'm being set up to be put on my knees/
[Interlude]
I'm begging miss can you s'cuse the way you found me pleading/
the work's legit I've been putting in the time and I been workin real hard to pull a sound from thin air for so long now/
By the End of of November you'll see what I mean/
Try and shake these ever blues/
super imposed by the view, for all i know this could be something new/
catch my white lies on the phone/
I'm just trying to make it home before I make the evening news/
We've had a long line of politics tellin we don't thrive in our wild wild west/
I been trying to get away from the ways that I was raised for so long now/
By the end of November you'll see what I mean/
I show up to that door in tatters, late enough to be a cold night terror/
sweat slips that knob you slip once, you're all a sudden showin' patterns/
Try and shake these ever blues/
super imposed by the view for all I know this could be something new/
Catch my white lies on the phone/
I'm just trying to make it home before I make, the evening news/
[Out]
