Lone Wild

I remember when I was cut down to nothing
Didn't ever think I'd find my way
I remember when I was desperate for connection
I was stuck inside my father's maze

No siren, nymph, or demi-god
Could save 'em from the song they sang

You flew too close to the sun
Yeah, you flew too close to the sun
Your mouth went on and on and on
Yeah, you flew, you flew too close to the sun

I remember when I was all zeal and ego
Felt like I can do what I want

Reality will melt your wings

You flew too close to the sun
Yeah, you flew too close to the sun
Your mouth went on and on and on
Yeah, you flew, you flew too close to

You flew too close to the sun
Yeah, you flew too close to the sun
Your mouth went on and on and on
Yeah you flew, you flew too close to the sun

I don't know you
I don't care to
I don't wanna come back for you

Tell me how it feels
Tell me how do you feel?
Tell me how it feels
When you're stripped bare?

Tell me how it feels
Tell me how do you feel?
Tell me how it feels
When you're stripped bare?

I flew too close to the sun
Yeah, I flew too close to the sun
Your mouth went on and on and on
Yeah I flew, I flew

I flew too close to the sun
Yeah, I flew too close to the sun
Your mouth went on and on and on and on
Yeah I flew, I flew too close to the sun

Searching for distraction
Beneath a velvet sky
You're so much more than I can see
Way more than what meets the eye

Searching for the answers
That we have yet to find
Where did we come from?
What are we here for?
And Where do we go when we die?

But I know that in the end
I want you by my side
I know I can’t go on
Without your hand in mine

Desperate interaction
Someone turned the lights off
Guess you gotta free yourself
From on-going distraction
Underneath the tv light

I know that in the end
I want you by my side
I know I can’t go on
Without your hand in mine

Right left up down
Where do we go now?
We’re all searching for
Just give me more (distraction)
Patience over ignorance
Compassion for indifference
While we're searching for
While we're searching for (distraction)
You're zeal to be right
Has made you blind

I know that in the end
I want you by my side
I know I can’t go on
Without your hand in mine

We're all searching for
We're all searching for
We're all searching for
We're all searching for distraction

I know that in the end
I want you by my side

Lately I’ve been on my knees, lookin’ for the answer
(Life is such a mystery)
And in my mind I run to the hills for some clarity
(Stuck inside your history)
When you hit the fine age of fifteen
And your dreams seem like they’re within reach
‘Til your dad breaks the band up
Sorry, son I threw away the key
Are you kiddin’ me

I’m locktup inside
Honey won’t you be my dream
Cause I’ve been
Stuck in quarantine
Come and set my soul free, please
All this alone time can lead a mind to wonder
Are we just a slave to the beat
You know
I’m locktup inside
Someone come and set me free

April 6 2020 I’m not buyin’ what your makin’
Out here livin’ in a world that’s crumblin’
and everyone is fakin

But when you hit the ripe age of 25
And your hearts stuck inside some dead-end life
You can start to get antsy
When you feel you’re not living the dream
But that’s ok

I’m locktup inside
Honey won’t you be my dream
Cause I’ve been
Stuck in quarantine
Come and set my soul free, please
All this alone time can lead a mind to wonder
Are we just a slave to the beat
You know
I’m locktup inside
Someone come and set me free

Blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah
Everybody has the right opinion today
Blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah
But my mind can’t bear it all
I’m not feeling ok

Numb the mind
hypnotize
Isolation
Cool disguise
Open eyes
No protection

Pay to be just as free as I once was, ‘cause

I’m locktup inside
Honey won’t you be my dream
Cause I’ve been
Stuck in quarantine
Come and set my soul free, please
All this alone time can lead a mind to wonder
Are we just a slave to the beat
You know
I’m locktup inside
Someone come and set me free

Not a period, I’m a comma
Tryna say wise shhh like the Dalai Lama
But every time you speak to me
My mind's lost in its own geography
Blame it on the ADHD
Watchin' thoughts fall outta my brain

You know that I love ya
You know that I need ya
So why do you walk away

Did ya slip me a potion
‘Cause I feel a commotion
Hittin’ me like waves on a summer's day

You know I got the dirties
You know I got

We’re throwin’ words like ninja stars out here
And it’s tearing us apart
Forgive me Love, I’m not seein’ clear
Cause I saw red right from the start

Sleep it off
Wake up the next day
But before you go

You know that I love ya
You know that I need ya
So why do you walk away

Did ya slip me a potion
Cause I feel a commotion
Hittin’ me like waves on a summer's day

You know I got the dirties
You know I got

Dirty
Dirty
Dirty
Dirty

Yeah
You know I
You know I got the dirties

You know I
You know


You know that I love ya
You know that I need ya
So why do you walk away

Did ya slip me a potion
Cause I feel a commotion
Hittin’ me like waves on a summer's day

You know I got the dirties
You know I got I got

For you I got the dirties
I’m feelin’ hot

You know I got the dirties
You know I got I got

For you I got the dirties
I’m feelin’ hot

I look out my window phone
I see all the people in their homes
Tryna make sense of it
Girl beats on the drums
Her boy tryin’ to keep up with how to love
Tryna make sense of it

You’re so right
That you’re wrong
You’re Tryna make sense of it

I’m a flip-flopper but at least I’m growin’
I’m a show stopper do you see me changin’
I’m a hypocrite of my former self, but that’s the price of maturin’
Tryna make sense of it

Tired-a-livin’ in grey
Watch you use all the colors to show the way
I’d prolly make a mess of it
Give me the bad with the good
Stark contrast is good for you babe to see the truth
It’s my will and testament

You wanna get high
Then get low, on ya knees
Only way to get over it

I’m a flip-flopper but at least I’m growin’
I’m a show stopper do you see me changin’
I’m a hypocrite of my former self, but that’s the price of maturin’
Tryna make sense of it

You don’t know which way to go
But you can’t do it on your own
Cancel culture’s a culture vulture
You’re just confused

I’m a flip-flopper but at least I’m growin’
I’m a show stopper do you see me changin’
I’m a hypocrite of my former self, but that’s the price of maturin’
Tryna make sense of it

I know that
You know that
I know I don’t wanna go

Tonight I’ve been thinking, hoping, wishing dreaming
Our love hadn’t flown away
But I’ve been feeling like you're halfway cross the world
When you’re right here with me

She said lean in to all those you hold dear
Let go of all of your pain
I know our love is vacant
And I know I am to blame

I wanna go back
I wanna go
Back to the start
I wanna go back
I want you
Close to my heart

I know that
You know that
I know I don’t wanna go

I’ve been lying to myself
While you’ve been driving away from everything
And I’ve been wrapped up in these wires
Of the promises I know that I can’t keep

I know we both need a clean slate
You know I’ll be here when you say

I wanna go back
I wanna go
Back to the start
I wanna go back
I want you
Close to my heart

With 20/20 hindsight
I’ll rewind to go through with you

I wanna go back
I wanna go
Back to the start
I wanna go back
I want you
Close to my heart

I know that
You know that
I know I don’t wanna go
