Soft and stained with burning lights I can’t stand this paradise I will find a way out of here I for the moment have found my way, I may Be still watching clocks tick but I’ll play, the game Gonna leave nostalgic days of suppressed action Kick up the dirt and form my own faction Distraction is the phrase that they always say Refraction might make you king for the day I wouldn’t bet on you to take away All that I’ve built up from this day, id say You aint gotta a chance to be myself You aint gotta chance to beat myself You aint gotta chance, so back away I haven’t felt like I do today, you might say I am a new born ready to play your games Na na na na na Na na na na na

When you are away I can’t put down The shaking blues and the cold The admiration, the quiet desperation To lay down all that I have and more I wanna reach my arms across the ocean blue I wanna reach my arms out to you The season here has just turned bright The flowers I’ve planted for you have turned white And everyday I leave you a little something That I hope you have a way to find I wanna reach my arms across the ocean blue I wanna reach my arms out to you I wanna reach my arms across the ocean blue I wanna reach my arms out to you Across the ocean blue I wanna reach my arms out to you (repeat)

You're Right 02:36
Don't be lazy, Don't be crazy You know you have a spot right here Always step back from the opportunity To be safe well i hope i can say You're right You're right x2 You can't face them, I've erased them This past is just a fading memory For the same reason, I must be leavin', But i hope that someday you will find You're right You're right x2

Down 03:28
Something at the bottom of the ocean is dragging me down it’s dragging me down Something at the bottom of this ocean is dragging me down its dragging me down You cant even fathom what is its muffled by the shells, all those yells I don’t need to be told it’s consuming me that I can tell, that I can tell God I’m tired of being dragged down by my feet There is still a part of me that’s floating in the ocean blue, in the ocean blue And nothing seems to want it not the hagfish or the current it remains still, it remains still And why is it please tell me why I am I the one that’s hung out to dry, hung out to dry God i'm tired of being dragged down by my feet Something at the bottom of the ocean is dragging me down it’s dragging me down (so why dont you help me out?) Something at the bottom of the ocean is dragging me down it’s dragging me down (so why dont you help me out?) -repeat*

I know who you Are and I’m not Interested In these solitary years I haven’t been Heard again So take your walk on Down the road to some Other kid I will save as many of these arrows I will save as many of these arrows As I can I don’t think you’ve Thought this through But get on with it Cause I am through Waiting here to say No again I will save as many of these arrows I will save as many of these arrows As I can I will save as many of these arrows I will save as many of these arrows

I don't think we can move on this time around The same old burdons hover in our clouds There seems to be something inside of you and im not saying that it hasn't got in me too Well, it's over now Well, it's over now Colorful rings and charms are an earthly thing unsure motivation is what i see Taking hold of heartbeats everywhere Transfixed on not one but many stares Well, it's over now Well, it's over now Well, it's over now

Out Ahead 02:11
Lately I Have been too out there I’m sorry Forgive me Cause I don’t know you Everything is out ahead I guess I’m through Shame there’s no proof That I’m learning And I’m yearning That I could know you Still everything is out ahead And I Could go without you Yes I Could go with out you But then I wouldn’t know you, And I wouldn’t be out ahead

What if I was gone? What if I held the key to my room, And threw it away? I was the same as I was in my childhood I was the same as I was in my childhood Bring in all the days, Cast out all the doubt, Make the best of my time before it’s out Now that I am gone And my things are locked away There’s not a memory to save And there’s a reason why I was the same as I was in my childhood I was the same as I was in my childhood Bring in all the days, Cast out all the doubt, Make the best of my time before it’s out I was the same as I was in my childhood I was the same as I was in my childhood

Grindstone 03:28
These are the times when, you try to pick apart your friends Expecting to find all of a newfound bliss I don’t think this is true, I don’t think that you know Who you are I don’t think you wont follow the same road Not when were both here stuck in the same boat It doesn’t mean a thing when you, don’t put your nose to the grindstone I am through waiting, to see if you will change Glorified revolutions, aren’t your game I think that your set in your ways, sometimes it takes so many days To find, who you are, and I don’t think you wont follow the same road Not when were both here stuck in the same boat It doesn’t mean a thing when you, don’t put your nose to the grindstone I don’t think you wont follow the same road Not when were both here stuck in the same boat It doesn’t mean a thing when you, don’t put your nose to the grindstone

These Days 03:52
Before, you come home, know you don’t follow, the rules Before, I come home, know I don’t follow, the rules These days follow me, chained behind eternity These days follow me but not close enough to take me If I rise up in my fame that’s another link to the chain No more added payments means no more added gains Before these days end, id like some friends, to say goodbye Before, your life ends, id like to be there, to kiss you goodnight These days follow me, chained behind eternity These days follow me but close enough to take me If I rise up in my fame that’s another link to the chain No more added payments means no more added gains I don’t have to be the same as before these days I don’t have to be same as now I don’t have to find a place to stay To sit think about these days

about

After recording for 5 years on various platforms and systems (windows movie maker, garageband, protools etc.), i have accumulated almost 200 original songs, some of which are of poor quality and some thats slightly better. At any rate this is an attempt to bring together the best material and remaster (and even rerecord) it.

about

Andrew Burgess Portland, Maine

In early 2007 i picked up a guitar for the first time. A few months later, i began writing and and recording my own original pieces. Now a 22 year old college student I am constantly looking for funds to upgrade equipment and new influences and sounds to experiment with. Ive been told I'm generally folky but I like to play around with many other genres. ... more
