lyrics

There's people with these problems
they don't know how good they got it
cover arms in salt and paper
cause you wouldn't let me cut them
and the young magnolia flower
throws it's pollen in a race
cover arms in salt and paper
throw the pepper in your face
rid the madness that consumes you
tally acts you can't commit
cover arms in salt and paper
cause the doctor said you'd itch
sleep all nestled in your palace
harbored stoic in regret
cover arms in salt and paper
try to get a little rest



Don't listen to your best friends
disregard your family too
cover pride in crumbled marble
cause they don't care what you do
Take out all your lifetime savings
wager on a tickets praise
cover pride in crumbled marble
you can't die if you don't age
build a loan based on forgiveness
lose it in a paper pad
cover pride in crumbled marble
cause they won't know you were sad
hold your blankets sown on torn silk
wrap around your fingers soft
cover pride in crumbled marble
scrap the remnants of it off


(chorus)
If everyone was anxious we could all get along
If everyone was anxious we could all get along
If everyone was anxious we could all get along
If everyone was anxious we could all get along

If anyone understood them they'd hear power in our songs
If anyone understood them they'd hear power in our songs
If anyone understood them they'd hear power in our songs
If anyone understood them they'd hear power in our songs
our songs and chants...


So grant your father's wishes
sing your mother's lullaby
Cover anger in redemption
still you yell and still I lie
Give me reason for a folly
Give me reason for this weight
Cover anger in redemption
still you fight and still I hate
leave debating by the doorstep
render laughter from thy soul
Cover anger in redemption
let the numbness take its toll
have no mercy for a sinner
still a sinner one and all
Cover anger in redemption
let the gallows catch your fall

I have been playing music for the past 4 years now. Everything that music has given me to this point in my life would not be possible without the friends and family who have always supported me. I hope no matter what music the listener enjoys, they can see some value in what I do as a folk singer. For any contact information hit me up at:
