Another song that was written in less than an hour. With allusions to Jesus Christ, this song is a blurry, faded snapshot of kindness and compassion inside a frame of greed and human nature.
This song, in its current state, is missing a verse. Hopefully the third verse will be added soon.
This is a compilation of demos for the album that will (hopefully) be released around fall of 2013. Please excuse the modesty of the recordings, as they are humble demos recorded on an iPad, and not professionally in a studio.
lyrics
I know we've met before.
Your name is not the same,
your face isn't sure.
But we've had this very talk a long time ago.
You were a foster home
for the love of a child
unseasonably grown.
He carries on.
Carries all the weight the only way he knows.
How many times did you fall?
You were a fisherman,
While I, a pirate,
on the shores of the Gulf of Mexico.
Did you really go to those extremes?
Did you really lack the ways and means?
How many times did you fall?
Does it matter at all?
