this is an old track that was a collaboration with my pen pal Monique Solanki. it started off as a poem she wrote, then I put to music and finished up the lyrics.
lyrics
come outside and smell the leaves
somewhere under the willow trees
I see my feet int the sand
below the stars of nowhere land
all alone, we're all alone
come take this down and drown
let's see what we can do without grace cathedral and the holy one
all alone, we're all alone
come outside and drown
I remember you were here
all grown up with no tears
I can see you in the dark
where we used to dance in the park
all alone, we're all alone
come take this down and drown
let's see what we can do without grace cathedral and the holy one
all alone, we're all alone
come outside and drown
please stay and watch the people breathe
watch them move, watch them eat
I remember you were here
all grown up with no tears
all alone, we're all alone
come outside and drown it

Saw these guys play one of their first shows and they were amazing. Great production quality on the recordings and their live sound is spot on as well. The Loneliness Monk
I met this guy busking on 6th street in Austin right when he moved there. Easily one of my favorite people and albums. Even if country isn't for you check it out, his lyrics are the best. The Loneliness Monk
