lyrics

And I stood out on your front porch tonight.
The clouds were purple and gray in the moonlight.
I talked out loud like you were still around
and here is what I had to say:

"I hope I'm doing this right. I want to live an honest life. I want to take your advice. I want to try and live a good life. But between an honest life and what I am: the sea."

And Lily waved on her way to the hospital.
I think she died later that night.
So I'll sing this loud because you are not around
to hear that which I have to say.

"I hope I'm doing this right. I want to live an honest life. I want to take your advice. I want to do my family right. But between an honest life and what I am there is a sea."

about

The Michael Character Boston, Massachusetts

It's political music, whatever. Based in Boston, MA. Absolutely willing to drive very far to play for you and five of your vaguely alternative friends in your combination kitchen/laundry room. Hit me up. I'm fully serious.
