Dead in Your Tracks 03:43
lyrics

I’m gonna be the one who takes, all the mistakes I made I’m gonna be the one who fails again and gets there anyway I’m gonna be the one who stops and stares as you walk on by I’m gonna be the one who pulls myself up now just watch me try again Again, watch me try again Oh how little I’d known, oh how much I’ve grown Now watch me try again I crashed and burned, stopped and turned from the cold cold eyes I learned to stand, got the upper hand, feeling so high I’m not gonna be the one who stops and stares as you walk on by I’m gonna be the one who stops you dead in your tracks now watch me try again

You took away, all that I had Lost my first love, now I lost my band A bullshit excuse, I just wanted the truth I couldn't understand, felt I had no use Then I met the girl, whom you fell hard for Told me a story, your song had ignored I love that song, but it's funny how this went Thank you irony, for this new friend Now I'm alone, but the music's started flowing Far from home, but hopefully I'm growing I've picked up the pen, started writing again I hope you know, it's my time to get ahead You quit your dream, settled for less, I had my falls, I dove to my depths I've wasted my time, settled too I'm ready to go now, ready to move Now I'm alone, but the music's started flowing Far from home, but hopefully I'm growing I've picked up the pen, started writing again I hope you know, it's my time to get ahead On the wayside, aim for the Bayside, now your on your own On the wayside, Listening to Bayside, now you’re off your throne You quit your dream, settled for less, I had my falls, I dove to my depths I've wasted my time, settled too I'm ready to go now, ready to move Now I'm alone, but the music's started flowing Far from home, but hopefully I'm growing I've picked up the pen, started writing again I hope you know, it's my time to get ahead

Tired 04:05

Are you tired of walking home, alone late at night To an empty apartment, avoiding others' eyes Cause I'm tired of walking home, chasing rides I'm tired of dying, In this night life So if you'd like I'll walk you home, my hand in yours My ears and heart open wide, please tell me more I'll look into your eyes, trip deep into them And part your hungry lips, as you take me in I'll be your anchor, you'll be my sea I'll keep you afloat, you'll damn near drown me You'll swallow me whole, I'll keep you stationary I'll fight with the storms, you send down on me (hey) We'll keep each other warm, in this cold city We'll give each other all, the space that we need We'll cry and we'll fight, to be understood We'll give each other time, and learn what we should I'll be your anchor, you'll be my sea I'll keep you afloat, you'll damn near drown me You'll swallow me whole, I'll keep you stationary I'll fight with the storms, you send down on me (hey) Through the strife and sleepless nights, we'll survive, we'll survive There'll be times when we'll be one and we'll feel so alive I'll be your anchor, you'll be my sea I'll keep you afloat, you'll damn near drown me You'll swallow me whole, I'll keep you stationary I'll fight with the storms, you send down on me

Bisous 02:59

You weren’t pleased that I didn’t kiss you, but in time I found I couldn’t resist you Your eyes, your mind, drew me in Ambitions, goals and work to show, that you dream big and you’ll give it a go Your smile, your style, darling, you know how to live Back and back, forth and forth, your words are strong and I want more, Our time, our lives, met here, let’s not waste them Seize the day and the seven seas, take everything that we please, Your grace, your face, I thanked you and you thanked me Your body brain, determined drive, I knew you were of the most exciting kind So be well, revel, I’m hoping I’ll see you again

Down 03:46

It's time to forget, the nights that we spent And if you really won't go, I guess I don't blame you Insisting to know, I guess I'll have to break you Down Too much is not enough for you I always let you, I always let you down It's time to forget, the time that we shared, And if you really won't go, I guess I don't blame you Insisting to know, I guess I'll have to break you Down Too much is not enough for you I always let you, I always let you down (Da da da da da da da)

Changing Colours 02:59

It's the end of the summer The leaves will soon be changing colour How can you leave her if you love her? In search of another lover I think of all the signals All the subtle clues But I still miss coming home and seeing her shoes It's the end of the summer The leaves will soon be changing colour How can you leave her if you love her? In search of another lover I think of all the signals All the subtle clues But I still miss coming home and seeing her shoes Oh my baby We really did try And I still think you want me at your side But I can't give you All you want in life And there's only so much we can compromise It's the end of the summer The leaves will soon be changing colour How can you leave her if you love her? In search of another lover I think of all the signals All the subtle clues But I still miss coming home and seeing her shoes Oh my baby We really did try And I still think you want me at your side But I can't give you All you want in life And there's only so much we can compromise It's the end of the summer The leaves will soon be changing colour How can you leave her if you love her? In search of another lover

Is That You? 05:01

Is that you In the arms of another man? I guess that proves, it really was our last dance You'll take him home, and let him into your world Darling you know, how to take and give, without being hurt I admire your desire pull the trigger and take your kill home tend the fire that you inspire break a heart and continue down that road Is that you calling at 2am Why so blue? This I didn't expect No I won't! This isn't for the best The door is closed, I don't owe you any debt I admire your desire pull the trigger and take your kill home tend the fire that you inspire break a heart and continue down that road Is that you with the bill up your nose? Nice shoes, but what happened to your other clothes? Stay safe, I know you love a thrill But now babe, you're starting to look ill I admire your desire pull the trigger and take your kill home tend the fire that you inspire break a heart and continue down that road (The feeling's gone Made my amends I'm healing now Won't trip on loose ends)

Dirty 03:53
lyrics

Through the broken walls I see This portrait I made of me It's part of this wreck I associate with home And the pieces are tidy Like someone swept me clean But I know, I know I'm still dirty As I decompose, as I struggle with this note I'm dirty You're dirty I'm dirty Desert me, desert me Don't mind these eyes Or the tears they've cried Six feet of cold earth Is enough to stop a stare And there are memories Reside inside of me Speaking lessons on obsessions Please pills shut them up As I decompose, as I struggle with this note And I can't seem to find The way to control my mind And I can't stop, but I think you know Where this ends, where this ends I think you know I'm dirty You're dirty I'm dirty Desert me, desert me

Spill 03:45

Wished away, washed away, wished away, washed away The stain Ran away, got away, ran away, got away Escaped No, I won't turn back Keeping time, losing space, keeping time, losing space, Again What is mine, change my frame, change my mind, what's my frame? Mend No, I won't turn back And I'm losing again, all of my friends What do you have, to aid to mend I've torn it apart, I've strewn my heart Now I'm strung out, alone in the dark It's up to you, and I feel all right Were it up to you, would you save my life? The boulder has been moved, and my ride has arrived So I'm leaving you behind And I'm losing again, all of my friends What do you have, to aid to mend I've torn it apart, I've strewn my heart Now I'm strung out, alone in the dark And I'm losing again, all of my friends What do you have, to aid to mend I've torn it apart, I've strewn my heart Now I'm strung out, alone in the dark

Spinning 02:41
lyrics

There’s something broken that I don’t know how to fix I felt your affection but could not return it I want to embrace you, to explore every inch But I don’t know how, to show you this Do I say show me your room, Do I put my hands upon you Do I ask you to go for walk with me, Do I ask for a kiss, regardless of who else sees Maybe I’m wrong maybe it’s all in my head Maybe this feeling comes from things I’ve misread But I can’t stop thinking about it But I’ve felt this before and this feeling hasn’t quite quit It’s just another lonely night Another internal flight A hard and flawed examination At the depths of my deprivation I hope one day I learn To unlearn what I’ve learned And start to feel human again

A Father's Love 03:19
lyrics
buy track
I always knew, I could count on you, to save me No matter how far, you loved to drive your car, you'd find a way for me Always interested in what I had to say, And what I thought Concerned enough, but allowed me my space, until I was ready to take off And suddenly you were away from me And I ache from the loss Far too soon and I'm too far from you Haven't seen you in months (well) I guess I missed my chance I missed my father's loving hands Giving me a hug on Xmas morning Or fixing something I could not have I hunger for your reason Your insight and critique I wish for another chance to speak Sometimes I dream your still alive And it can hurt so bad waking up I try to learn from your strength and carry on through the rough

about

After drifting around the world, experiencing many things awful and awesome, I have decided to tread the path I feared I could not succeed in: a life devoted to music.

Debt and curiousity drove me to China. A lack of Chinese skills, English speakers in China and hunger for something new took me to the Philippines to create this album.

Seeing heartbreaking poverty like I had not seen before (a group of maybe 10 homeless children all less than 15 years of age, huffing) inspired me to donate half of the profits from this album to Virlanie Foundation, helping street kids in Manila (www.virlanie.org).

That's where I'm at as I release this album. You can contact me via www.sessymusic.com Write me with questions, comments, requests to play in your living room, wrestle your pig, etc.
