So last week I was unable to upload a video due to the fact that I was in Vegas rehearsing and playing a show. This is footage from the show on August 29, 2009 featuring Jessica Lankford (Drums), Nick Delaimo (Guitar), Chris Devlin (Keys) and Jonathan Grillo (Bass). We had only had a week to put together a full set and this was the result. (ps, Thanks for the footage Jason!) Enjoy :-)
Lyrics:
I swear I've cried a thousand tears
behind closed doors alone this year
be smart now girl, you must stay strong
this sorrow will not last for long
everyone dreams without sleeping
but waking nightmares can creap in
breaking the clay you've made from dust
adhering fear to your new cuts
Don't be afraid of being cut down
this forest is full of a lack of sound
branches sway, they play to the rhythm
Find your roots before the division of the schizm sets in
Mother Earth, she gave you sweet life
from the heavens, took the stars for your eyes
she gave you skin so you could choose to swim
but either way, Father Time's got your number pinned
to the sins that you have created
say "Only God can alleviate them"
but God's too busy fighting these wars
tell me, who's chose now? And who should be scorned?
Presidents and queens alike
have to say that they fight the good fight
but as a young person in this day and age,
I know not to trust, but I know how to pray
And I swear I've cried a thousand tears
behind closed doors alone this year
be smart now children, we must stay strong
this sorrow will not last for long.
She really has some serious soul in that gorgeous voice of hers.
