The music of Lee Shapiro, which consists of a variety of styles and genres. I would appreciate if you "liked" or commented on any of the songs you enjoy.

My favorite kinds of music is the kind that surprises you. While I enjoy conventional type songs (verse, chorus, verse chorus, bridge, chorus), I prefer songs that take you on an adventure. This includes jam songs (Grateful Dead), and songs with many detours and lots of dynamics (Rickie Lee Jones, Dave Matthews). Although most of my songs tend to fall into some kind of normal verse/chorus formula, I do tend to try and mix things up a bit. Which is why most of my songs last longer than 4 or 5 minutes.

Lyrics

I've pushed away everyone I've ever loved
The rest left me alone to wander
In this big old empty house
It echoes of the past I squandered

I'd say I'm sorry to those I have wronged
But it don't mean much coming from me
I wished for the sky, but that's not where I belong
As I sink down this hole so deeply

I don't know what this is called
I don't know what it was before
But there's one thing that I am sure....
This ain't livin' at all
No, this ain't livin' at all

I keep walking on this path of life
I keep waiting for the sadness to rebound
But when I reach a mountain that's too high
It's me that gives up and turns around

But please don't worry at all about me
I'm not the first to feel this way
I'm certain I don't deserve sympathy
I've made my bed and here's where I'll stay

I don't know what this is called
I don't know what it was before
But there's one thing that I am sure....
This ain't livin' at all
No, this ain't livin' at all
This ain't livin at all.
