A one-man-band with all-original material, writing, composing and performing since 2005.
My name is Evan Schafer. I am an independent (or "indie") musician with a strong grounding in traditional composition, but I like to think my material always has a unique and individual flair. I guarantee not being bored out of your gourd when turning on one of the records. I produce, mix, and engineer everything myself, and have done so since late 2005.

Story behind the song
This is the first singer-songwriter material that I have composed in close to a year, after shifting my focus strictly to composing film music ("Something About Silas" and other smaller film projects) and contemporary classical music, which is my particular niche of the composing world. It feels good to get back into the medium of songwriting, which first threw me, head-first, into writing music to begin with ... and hopefully will reignite the flame that had me creating two albums per year only a short time ago.
Lyrics
Where am I trying to go? Forgetting and forgiving the flow I’m running fast yet moving slow Another chance for this all time low Resisting the current state Reciprocate and appreciate Murderous appetite gone too late Conflicts and oppression to speculate Here’s where the box of grief will end I have no money left to spend Garden of Eden in a revolving bend A servicing stamp of the contraband Hello Mother and Father, I’m back to find The rules and the fame to a Columbine Peel back the layers like an orange rind And wishing the world was in a different line Where am I trying to go? Prelude, fugue and capriccio From beginning to bed the line I won’t toe Forgive me for running but moving slow.
