about

This song is dedicated to the memory of my cousin, Justin Stepp. It was written on the heels of his death in January of 2020, and since has been re-written, recorded and re-recorded. And now here it sits in the form it has found.

Don't do Heroin.

lyrics

--Lyrics--
Snow falls and I feel
The weathers taking cues from the way I feel inside
And I'm so cold I fear
That I too, may just have died
But my eyes stay open
And my legs feel frozen
My instincts just feel broken
And I don't know where it goes from here

So please God take me and show me the way
And keep temptation and all evil at bay
I feel so lost and I don't know who to blame
I feel like it's you but rather me all the same
So please just take me and show me a way
I feel like a shooter whos lost his aim
And I'm going deeper, and I've lost the trail
I'm a train I'm going off the fucking rails

Rain falls and echoes
The tears falling from my eyes
But it doesn't camouflage the look that's on my face
Behind these rain soaked eyes

Oh please just take me and then show me the way
Cuz you should have to. If you made it this way.
I guess I'm asking in the nicest of ways
All I want is for you to explain

Earth revolves in orbit
Constantly spinning on
Just like my screaming brain
And sleep is all but hopeless
A figment of the past
Driving me insane

I never believed in ghosts
But now I hope its true
Someday I'll buy a Ouija board and sit down and talk to you

And now in this moment
The grief is all but gone
I'm finally ready
To start my movin' on

I never believed in ghosts
But now I hope its true
Someday I'll buy a Ouija board and sit down and talk to you
