about

In High school, Bobby and I wrote and recorded this song in my bedroom. We also made a video called The Chainsaw Skateboard. This is not the whole story.

lyrics

The sound of the oceans too much to take in
The crashing waves spray is laden with the Sting
Of the memory that you have left here for me
The world is numb but what if you could see?

I’m trying to find a way out of town
The people here bore me they’re angry and loud
Can’t seem to fit in
Can’t seem to get out
Sometimes I think maybe I’ve gotten used to it now

Sometimes I wonder why im still around
Pacing the floor not making a sound
But nobody’s noticed that im still around
Sometimes I think maybe I’ve gotten used to it now

There’s something about this place that I like
No reason to worry no reason to lie
I can’t find a thing that makes me happy inside
But I also can’t find the one thing that made me cry

And I can’t see why
It turned out this way
Even the sky
Can’t hold off the rain
My natural high
Is controlled by the same
Levels that I can’t seem to attain
What’s got into me now?

Sometimes I wonder why I’m still around
Pacing the floor not makin a sound
But nobody’s noticed that I’m still around
Sometimes I think maybe I’ve gotten used to it now
