On the last day of mixing my previous album, 11:11, I sat at the piano and wrote Fire engine in 20 minutes.

Fire Engine: Written by S. Sevo© 2004
I gave nothing got nothing in return
Me to when I’m 5 years old
Return my playful hands my toys
I wanna be loud like a fire engine horn
Took me till now to care about
Myself, oh I’ve got it now
Tickle me, make me soar,
Make me scream on a 100ft dive
Into the sea
Get out while you still can, life’s a one way
Do the best you can…
Whistling, ”it’s off to work I go”
Smiling, cause patience is a virtue
Happy now, grateful too
Have you ever had a sign sent down to you?
While we laughed my tiredness passed
Weak as I was from the constant hum
Of living, of sleeping, of dying,
You gave new beat to my heart
Get out while you still can, life’s a one way
Do the best you can…
