Storm chasers are people that are driven to a state where they're part hero and part suicidal. This death wish some would say is an addiction. Extreme weather calls these people like a siren's song.
acoustic rock, rock/pop, songwriter vocalist
I sing, play and write by myself generally, but without the help of some good friends I wouldn't have been able to accomplish much.

Lyrics
There’s a silence in the air, the sky’s turning green,
See the wall cloud rising and threatening the town at it's feet
I can't be like the rest, for me there's no peace.
I've got a job to do, and I just, I just got to get
Closer, closer. Closer, closer
Closer, closer. Just got to get closer
Adrenaline pumping, oh there’s no place like this
A knight on his horse ride into the abyss
Oh that freight train is coming with a loud sucking sound,
Let it hail let it rain, let them go underground
Closer, closer. Closer, closer
Closer, closer. Just got to get closer
Its a monster that's growing like a demon unleashed
It's chewing up the highway and spitting out the trees
There is no tomorrow, there's only right now
And it's all up to me, and I just, I just got to get
Closer, closer. Closer, closer
Closer, closer. Just got to get closer
