lyrics
Write it off with the mighty pen,
Disappear and then you do it again,
You trace the circle ’til it’s closed,
Locked up in a memory,
Livin’ life as a mystery unfolds before your eyes,
No longer recognize your own disguise,
Eyes bigger than your appetite,
Where you sleep tonight,
Who you’ll be,
I wanted to explain to you all the things I thought I’d never do,
Now I’ve got a different view,
Come back to me,
You’ve done it all and you’ve done it again,
Can’t tell the difference from beginnin' and end,
It’s all a calm calamity,
Eyes shut when they’re open wide,
Nothing left inside for you to criticize,
You’re a ‘siren-song-don’t-get-along-with-me’,
Eyes bigger that your appetite,
Where you sleep tonight,
Who you’ll be,
I wanted to explain to you all the things I thought I’d never do,
Now I’ve got a different view,
Come back to me,
Eyes bigger that your appetite,
Where you sleep tonight,
Who you’ll be,
I wanted to explain to you all the things I thought I’d never do,
Now I’ve got a different view,
That the circle’s complete,
Sometimes things ain’t even close to what was sold to you,
Probably you had a clue all along,
I left you to your own device,
Made another sacrifice all for you.

From his roots album Wanderer By Trade, to 2018's anthemic rock record The Circle up to his most recent full length, the day-glo laden Synestalgia he continues to push his boundaries as an artist while maintaining a consistent and cohesive voice....more
