So, most songs have a pattern to them (verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus). Not this one. It is not a song like you would buy at a cornerstore...

Music that has "meat" to it.
Welcome To My Page! I hope you like what you see and hear, um, here. As an artist, having the ability to upload my music and have others listen to it, and perhaps even give me pointers and encouragement, is so exciting!

Story behind the song
I wanted to try something different, but not too far out of the realm of progressive. It is a song about breaking through the realms of familiarity and sameness, both in life and music.
Lyrics
They microwaved my fast food so I could run to my next job I weaved my way through traffic; tweet what I see while I drive my car. There’s 3d TV on my PVR: too much fun – I’ll take one. I want it all. I don’t have time to sit and wait anymore Living life like I’m living in a cornerstore. They stream my favourite movie while I torrent just one more. That jacket’s last month’s model: I’ve got to get the one that the Bieber wore. What kind of artist buys another’s art? “But I can sing and I can dance And I’ll sell it fast!” I don’t have time to listen to cookie-cutter boys Making music like they bought it from a cornerstore. “I’ll buy a can of love and a box of peace. Can I get some kindness down the shortcut aisle?” Where’s the pride if we don’t have the time to write our own lines? They change the angle every moment so I don’t have to dream anymore... Tell me, what you running for? Tell me, where’s the stop? We are more than this; moving every moment like a cyclone blowing us all around. We aren’t meant for this. We get what we put in. So slow it all down, slow it all down, and take a look around. And walk right past that cornerstore. When you walk around and see what’s there behind those walls; outside it’s growing. The Sun is bright and the wind is cool And time just slips away...
