ABOUT
All-original pop rock recalling the days when solid, simple groove and melodic pop sensibility held more value than flash and formula, when feel meant more than perfection, when thunderous drums and pounding bass were the true measure of excitement in a live band, when guitar solos were mandatory, the lyrics were understood, and just a touch of self-indulgent free-form jam never hurt anyone.

(Let the Sun) Shine Down on Everything
(Let the Sun) Shine Down on Everything Genre: Rock
I got my cynical wit You got your dirty-mouth charm And it won’t hurt a bit Although we might cause some harm You can bring your suitcase And I’ll grab my guitar Let’s get outta this place Or we’ll never get far Come on, honey; grab the money and my hand We’ve gotta make it in time Chorus: Let the sun shine down on everything ‘Cuz, the world belongs to those who can see We’ve got everything we need to be free I got my high-top sneaks You got your rose-colored shades We’ll overcome their critiques To win this game of charades We’re gonna play it till dawn We’re gonna break every code We’ll take their king with our pawn And then we’ll head down the road Come on, honey; grab the money and my hand We’re gonna take it in stride Chorus: Let the sun shine down on everything ‘Cuz, the world belongs to those who can see We’ve got all we really need to be free, so free Now the story is clear And we know what it’s about But, when there’s nothing more here Well, then, it’s time to move out Come on, honey; grab the money and my hand We’ve gotta make it this time Chorus: Let the sun shine down on everything ‘Cuz, the world belongs to those who can see We’ve got everything we need to be free Let the sun shine down Let the sun shine down Let the sun shine down on everything Let the sun shine down on everything

Revelations
Revelations Genre: Rock
When I told you that I need you It was only done to please you A temporary fix for what's broke in my mind Chorus: These revelations shouldn't be news to you With everything I've done before When conversations turn to loosing you These ain’t revelations anymore There’s no use in trying to tame me Although, you do your best to shame me I plan to keep my conscience clear the best I can I didn’t intend to make you mad, dear We only want what we can’t have dear You see, it never made much sense for me to be your man Chorus: These revelations shouldn't be news to you With all the things I’ve said before When conversations turn to loosing you These ain’t revelations anymore Bridge: Can't you see we're both to blame? Cuz' I'm too shallow, and you're too naive But, baby, now it such a shame I've got nothing left to do but leave Solo: Chorus: These revelations shouldn't be news to you With all the pain I’ve caused before This conversation has turned to loosing you These ain’t revelations anymore
