READ LYRICS HERE.....Freedom. Its the thing which leaders often promise, people have sailed miles for, we fight, we die, we live, and we dream for it. It is a subject of novels, declarations, laws, songs and poems. Freedom of speech, freedom of thought, freedom of religion, freedom to be free. From where is true freedom born? somewhere not on a map, nor in a house of government? "The Core" is a bit of my own travels, my own quest for liberation. It starts and ends with freeing myself from the thickest bars, the darkest dungeons, and possibly the most unrelenting captor of all....myself. The Core
(FiveDollarGuitar © July 2008)

open eyes and open mind
you've opened doors that's what they're for
you've often wondered if you've been here
cause you've seen this before
your head is high
the sky is wide
put your feet through the floor
drifting inward and outward
can you take anymore

you know not what you want
learned what you don't
not sure where you're going
know where you won't
you think about it, it eludes you
you have questioned before
drifting inward and outward
will you take anymore, anymore


taking time to figure out threads in the frame
like the blanket of the baby
the patterns unchanged
it wraps around you it enfolds you
but what is it for
your drifting inward and outward
you don't need it anymore

no regret of your past
shoes are worn feet are sore
you are this because of that
over time you will be more

limitations restrain you
sink back to the core
looking outward looking in
you don't see them anymore
anymore
anymore

(some of the words subject to change, unfortunately. after many times trying to record it right I find that maybe I can not even perform my own song. : ) its what it is)
