The open road with a heavy load is a good place to begin
Treat you like a jagged knife on a newborn’s skin
Keep composed ‘cause no one knows the kind of mess you’re in
Are you sure the hurt will cure your penchant for the sin
Chorus:
I’m wide awake I’m pumping blood
I cursed my cards into doves
And filled my wounds with salt and mud
Because you’re getting dead or getting tough
A king is crowned for the underground with every dawns ascent
You must choose the type of muse you’d force upon a friend
Coming down off every town is an awful way to live
You can’t use your O.D. blues to straighten out your bends

Saw Matt open for Lost Dog Street Band in Portland Oregon after only listening to a couple of his songs. His performance was amazing, his talent as a writer, singer, and fiddle/now guitar player is something out of this world. Matt my Brother May the show never end for you and your dreams! jaredandkim19
