about

I wrote this song in 2010, but never could get the vocals to "feel" right. Fast forward a few years and with the help of Chris Ricketson (7 Mile Stare) we had a new angle and off we were! Rick Ruth of Human laid down the drums.

The lyrics deal with the compromises we make in order to not be alone, but when is too much? When do you start to lose the things that made you you in the first place. When do you give up the things that made you passionate? What happens when being together feels a lot like being alone? What happens when you give up everything for someone who is not even remotely close to who they pretended to be? It is a tug of war of pros and cons.

lyrics

Walk
- R. Johnson/C. Ricketson

Only playing with fire
Burning down again
Try to stay protected
But can't deny this flame
Stay with me, stay with me
Go away get closer
Closer then change

You can fool me one more time
Our next mistake is mine

I don't want to walk that road
The power of the glitter side of gold
And I can't watch this fade
I don't wanna walk alone
Don't wanna be there
When you don't shine anymore

A shift so unexpected
It owned me from then on
Now I just can't shake
This image of you gone

You can fool me one more time
Our next mistake is mine

I don't want to walk that road
Power of the glitter side of gold
And I can't watch this fade
I don't wanna walk alone
Don't wanna be there
When you don't shine anymore

Solo

You can fool me one more time
Our next mistake is mine

I don't want to walk that road
Power of the glitter side of gold
And I can't watch this fade
I don't wanna walk alone
Don't wanna be there
When you don't shine anymore
