Acoustic side project focused on growth, exploration and annoying the shit out of people.
Inspiration can hit at the strangest times. Lately I've been inspired by some pretty offbeat memories, experiences, readings and ideas. My hope is that I can blend them with the words in my heart and stake my claim of originality. That being said, this is overflow parking. Here, have a seat.

Story behind the song
My friend Elyse put up an away message about her old town where there were all sorts of crazy parties and lots of stories. I've always had this idea of an LSD "attack", dosing an entire town. So I combined the two a bit.
Lyrics
Twin backpack and a suitcase full of LSD Nobody's gonna stop me 'cause I'm white and 23 No profile for me And oh, by the way You might want to skip the shower today There's bound to be a little something strange In Glen Ellyn, Illinois Things'll be a little upside down In Glen Ellyn, Illinois The world is gonna be turned around Night may turn into day And skeletons may stop by just to say hello But when you wake up tomorrow You might see things my way One more overpriced coffee and I'm over the edge I'm sick of playing with Pity Girl and all her friends I've got no fake smiles left And so, here it goes This is my revolution I thought you should know Just a tiny dose should be enough In Glen Ellyn, Illinois Things'll be a little upside In Glen Ellyn, Illinois The world is gonna be turned around Night may turn into day And skeletons might stop by just to say hello But when you wake up tomorrow You might see things my way And oh, by the way You might want to skip the shower today Oh, by the way You might want to hang on to something else today In Glen Ellyn, Illinois
