Artist picture
Facetious attitude periodically eclipsed by heart-felt wonderings about the existential root
WHERE SAVAGES ROAM I'm threatened by the safety net and troubled by solutions to the problems of the world I tremble when the earth is calm and sleep under the rubble like a frightened feral animal Oh, but it's cold in the home where the savages roam Where the savages roam Aah, aah, aah ... The harshest winter yet All the horses have run crazy God has killed the internet The final course has been taken No, no, no No, no, no No, no, no Aah, aah, aah ...

Lyrics
I was taken down outside of town I'd been drinking firewater all day God was making changes to his song I was thinking some of them changes were wrong Loneliness, loneliness, out on the open range Loneliness, loneliness, here out on the plains Prairie justice, holiness, not only blessed but saved ... for the loneliness I was itchin' down inside a bone Twitchin', reachin' for the one gun I own Having no kind cave to call a home and no companion for the long beyond Lonely night, lonely night to the lonely night I pray Lonely night, lonely night How to find my way? Till the road meets the light here is where I'll stay for the lonely night
