    This is a physical copy of my album in a cd sleeve. It is just a cd from Staples that I burned on my computer though, so if your cd player is bad at playing mixed cds, buy at your own risk. There are only 20 cds available, since these are all handmade.

lyrics

Standing in the rain with my shoes wet
and my tongue tied
Oh, I'm coming down again with my whole weight
on my weak side
I can't remember posts from the wayside
on my decline
Now it's coming from the blue, from the gray skies
in a straight line

Struck like a bolt, now it comes
If my eyes were open, I'd have been ready for trouble
Trouble

I'm sinking in the deep like a dead weight
to a dead end
Oh, and Davy Jones, he waves like a loved one
like an old friend
I didn't see the signs as a warning
war is coming
Now they caught me by surprise in the morning
with their drumming

Off like a bomb, here it comes
If my eyes were open, I'd have been ready for trouble
Trouble

If my eyes were open, I'd have been ready
Shouldn't let my hopes fly, they always fall heavy
If my eyes were open, I'd have been ready for trouble

Don't try to run from it
Don't try to run from it
Don't try to run from it
You're only wasting time
