lyrics

It all started as a dream, my eyes wide and seeing reality return to my mind...to this cage of a room - or more like a tomb, and I'm the Pharaoh cut down in his prime. From the ceiling to the floor are possessions galore. All the precious items that define a previous time and a life left behind for solitude, a title, and wine. Left behind was a girl, with the will of a soldier, and plans both perfect and refined. I won over her heart, but as easy as it started, all ended at the drop of a dime. Not sure of my worth, and unable to confer on a timescale of years of her time why mending this bridge would allow her to live to the potential deserved of her kind. At the time I was convinced I had earned every inch of her heart, her soul, and her mind. Those assumptions would be, most definitely, the straw that broke her back.

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.
