The basics would be me and my guitar playing stuff I wrote as well as the occasional cover, but occasionally there's a piano or another person involved.
i want you to know this isn't something that i normally would do
not after all that i've been through
these walls are thick and not by accident or impulse
& you are brave to work so hard to try & climb them
& we were out there til the sun went down
lost in our thoughts
& the world spins fast & you always at the center of it
& i am trying not to fall again
the rock inside me is barely beating anymore
now i'm barely breathing & i'm grasping at your words
& you say
breatheinbreatheout
try not to think about it
dry your eyes, make yourself strong
just forget about it
make yourself alright just for tonight
i am trying not to flinch as you strip away the armor
asking questions i don't really want to hear
like is it really worth it to always be alone
& is it strength or just bravado based on fear
& can you tell me why you look so sad
haven't you looked around you
is this all superhuman compassion or just who you were in another life
everything will pass & i know you'll find a way, you say
but now i can't feel anything, there's nothing left inside
& you say
breatheinbreatheout
try not to think about it
dry your eyes, make yourself strong
just forget about it
make yourself alright just for tonight
