"The best aspect of this release is that it plays out like a live performance. In fact that was where my mind’s eye went when listening to the music. Furthermore, I think the six songs have a good flow from beginning to end. Although there is only one instrument the dynamics are apparent in the way he approaches the songs. That combined with solid songwriting and singing and you have a release I think many people will appreciate." - Divide and Conquer Music

lyrics
Bridges burned and so much older,
Clandestine sanctum far colder
control in safety's guise
shut your ears from their cries
From the cries...
Count the cost and pay the price,
for defiance in the eyes
of the ones who stand above you
regardless of the wrong that we do,
That we do...
C
Oh this life, wasted away, breaking like clay,
trusted friend, here for the day, gone in the end.
All we built, bled and strived,
brick by brick torn down in lies,
Salesmen shouting from the stage,
Finger pointing at those he blamed.
Secondary foundations lie in little piles at the side,
Those who stood stand prouder still,
as those they broke still feel the chill
Feel the chill...
Oh this life, wasted away, breaking like clay,
trusted friends, here for a day, gone in the end.
Dust has settled time gone by since the great Texan sunrise,
not a word of sorrow chimes from those within the mires guise.
From those inside...
Oh this life, rusting away, breaking like clay,
trusted friends, here in the sun, gone in the end.
