Maybe we need a change of scenery maybe we need the scene to change lately we can't agree on anything lately it all feels the same maybe we needed to take a break yeah, maybe we just need our space I know, you know, it doesn't work that way I know, you know, it doesn't work that way Maybe I need a reason to leave maybe you're looking for a reason to stay lately there's no rhyme or reasoning the words get to hard to say maybe we needed to take a break yeah, maybe we just need our space I know, you know, it doesn't work that way I know, you know, it doesn't work that way I'll go out every night you'll hear about it try lies alibis sweet revenge with a friend of mine when jealousy brings us together again we'll find everything has changed it can never be the same It doesn't work that way I know, you know, it doesn't work that way x4 maybe we needed to take a break it doesn't work that way maybe we both know that it's too late it doesn't work that way everything has changed it can never be the same it doesn't work that way

Remember when we were young endless nights and stolen days in the rain looking for shade in the sun and we found it forget about that now sometimes things they just won't don't work out so c'mon can we at least be friends? You don't have to go but I understand if you're gone So good to see you again thanks so do you Yeah I've been busy too something I learned from you another song for the broken hearted a minor key for the uninvited a sad song about the other side of love is all we're left with in the end You don't have to go but I understand if you're gone

Second guessing 04:02
lyrics
buy track
Late September I'm feeling cold inside with an Indian summer running through my mind I still remember so many nights that I would just lie awake dreaming of my life I'm not complaining but when I close my eyes I don't see the things I saw once upon a time what do I do now now that the life that I've been living is a life I'm second guessing lately In my life I found the love it brought the pain the size of oceans In my life the good and bad I've tried them both and never learned my lesson this is the life that I've been second guessing, lately So now I look back with no regrets I guess I could of done a few things a bit different like the time I tried to like the times I lied to you like everytime I swore never again I'm not complaining but when I close my eyes I don't see the life I had in mind what do I do now now that the life that I've been living is a life I'm second guessing lately In my life I found the love it brought the pain the size of oceans In my life the good and bad I've tried them both and never learned my lesson this is the life that I've been second guessing, lately

I was given a gift I know I didn't deserve one like a little boy on Christmas morning I ripped it open All I never wanted all anyone ever needed I knew right away by the way it fit my hand I better put it down before I break it put it down before I break it put it down before I break it into pieces So sweet it hurt my teeth so warm at night I could not sleep So hard to find a place in here for something that I can keep so I keep it far away yeah up high then I walked away I turn around for one more look I heard somebody say put it down before you break it put it down before you break it put it down before you break it into pieces sometimes I feel like you're testing me 'cause in the past I've broken everything I've broken everything... Put it down before you break it put it down before you break it put it down before you break it into pieces

about

Hey! So, I'm excited to play you my first solo record! Give it a listen, take a free song, buy a track or buy the record, which includes a couple of top-secret free bonus tracks!

After many years of playing Rock "n" Roll around the world, recording cassettes, albums and CDs with really loud and fast bands, like UNSOUND, FURIOUS IV and MONDO GENERATOR; I wanted to make a different kind of record, something a little more laid back and stripped down. Maybe I'm getting old or the tinnitus has moved into the brain? My Mom always asked, "why can't you make a record that you can understand what you are saying, why all the yelling and screaming?" Here ya go Ma.

This record started out as an acoustic thing, with a hand full of songs written for and about several friends who had recently passed away. After listening back, it seemed to want a few old-fashioned rock songs and some other true stories thrown into the mix. Some songs just stick with you in the subconscious; these are a few of mine. Good or bad, love it or hate it, here I am... volume one.

PS. If you want the record, but don't have an extra seven bucks, or if you are scared of PayPal, let us know, we'll do stuff.

Cheers,

Ian
