Do I have what it takes to make it somehow
What if I fall on my face in front of the crowd
All my mistakes are reflected in shapes
That appear like a self loathing shroud
As I recede in the charm of my grief I am bound
What keeps me up now
Chorus:
Let nightmares control you and daylight expose you
And the blood in your head starts to pound
It’s twenty ’til three and you’ve got a cliff to climb down
What keeps me up now
Remember the time you first called me out
I laughed to pretend not to know what came out of your mouth
But it clung on my brain like a fresh coat of paint
And I fled on a train headed south
In New Orleans I wiped my mind on the town
What keeps me up now
Chorus
I used the dope to escape where I couldn’t be found
I burned through all petty cash and bank accounts
With nothing left but a guitar and belt
I hocked it and swore off the sound
The belt was a noose when I came to on the ground
What keeps me up now

Not the biggest follower of country music, but when it’s done well, it’s hard not to love. Real stories with real emotion in each song, the essential building blocks of a good album. sirfonners

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
