soft finger picking and vocal, lots of words crammed together
pop rock singer songwriter folk poet taximagination truth or poison feel light striking resemblance prisoners of adventure then again jest playin folk 1551 go where they aint fast n loose w robots haphazard and meticulous
Facetious attitude periodically eclipsed by heart-felt wonderings about the existential root
WHERE SAVAGES ROAM I'm threatened by the safety net and troubled by solutions to the problems of the world I tremble when the earth is calm and sleep under the rubble like a frightened feral animal Oh, but it's cold in the home where the savages roam Where the savages roam Aah, aah, aah ... The harshest winter yet All the horses have run crazy God has killed the internet The final course has been taken No, no, no No, no, no No, no, no Aah, aah, aah ...

Pretending to trace the history of the human race (in 3 verses)
Lyrics
CHASING FAIRY TALES In the infancy of humanity, we're told (in the time it takes to say ...) there was constant war, prayer versus curse upon our soul (in the priceless time of day) TIll word came down, there would be no pay for the toil for all the world Fast and forward through a waste of time, to our dismay (under the tattered flags we flew) Populations grew by leaps and bounds, though no one knew just what it mattered (or what it proved) Till word got 'round, half was now the whole (sum for all) so come to share In the instance of fleeting clarity we fly (over mountains to the stars) Grounded hunters gaze skyward in wonder, asking why (are we chasing fairy tales?)
