about

Featuring my friend and special guest Robinson Treacher on backup vocal.

lyrics

Overwhelming anger
and bitterness building steam
Full of every failure
Every slight and shattered dream
Have taken hold, buried me
In this place I hate to be

Chorus
My heart is closed, closed shut
My heart is closed, closed shut
Don’t pry it open, you might get cut
My heart is closed, closed shut

Echoes of each rejection
Reverberate within the walls
Deep in every chamber
Suffering fills it all
A broken heart isolates
When it feels second rate

Chorus

Bridge
Why was it hard to ever get appreciation
By being nice I paid the price…humiliation
The good in me has disappeared with no traces
Taken flight away from here on a permanent basis

Time has left me cheated
Of everything of which I prayed
Thus I have retreated in this wounded man’s barricade
Heaven knows I stood my ground
But in the end I’m shutting down

Chorus

He is an evocative and introspective songwriter, and a deft finger-picker in the vein of James Taylor and Paul Simon with “an edge of Replacements styled alt rock to his strum” (Hiplanta). ... more
