Oh Darkness, I Feel Like

I Think One Of The Most Important Things, That This Album Is For Me, And This Period In My Life, Is About Gratitude. About Recognizing All Of The Things, Daily, That I'm Grateful For, And There Are Many In My Life. I'm Just So Blessed, And I Try To Carry That With Me Every Day.

Music Is Very Nebulous, And You Can Conjure Up A Lot Of Moods With Music. But Lyrics - They're A Lot More Tangible. They're Much More Specific. And You Want To Say Something Meaningful And Creative And Artistic And That Tells A Story And That Takes People Someplace Else.

I Will Be The Answer, At The End Of The Line, I Will Be There For You, While You Take The Time, In The Burning Of Uncertainty, I Will Be Your Solid Ground, I Will Hold The Balance, If You Can't Look Down. If It Takes My Whole Life, I Won't Break, I Won't Bend, It Will All Be Worth It, Worth It In The End, Cause I Can Only Tell You What I Know, That I Need You In My Life, When The Stars Have All Gone Out, You'll Still Be Burning So Bright...

All The Fear Has Left Me Now, I'm Not Frightened Anymore. It's My Heart That Pounds Beneath My Flesh, It's My Mouth That Pushes Out This Breath.

I Spent A Lot Of Years On The Road, And What Happens Is You Find Out Who Your Real Friends Are And You Find Out Where Your Strengths And Weaknesses Lie In Communication. I've Had The Same Friends For 20 Years Now And I Can Count Them On One Hand.
