lyrics

Break On Through  

Sometimes you got to judge a book by its cover
can't be too careful when your lookin for a lover
who knows what you'll discover after meeting under covers 
you might find out that you invented one another
you saw her in a coffee shop sippin on a double shot
typin something slow on a silver lap top
she was lookin real hot wanna give her what you got 
you think once think twice and then you think "I think not"

Maybe its finally time to commit to some love in your life
Maybe with some practice and time you might find that you 
want to get this love thing right and
Break on through. Break on through. Break on through.

She walks out the door shakin in that miniskirt 
she's got a dragon tattoo under her belly shirt 
a movie-star-lookin-flirt makes you wanna quit work  
It must be the real deal cause she's makin your body hurt

When you get inside you'll be sittin ringside 
watchin the roller coaster ride of your crazy life
stuck in the sand its about to be full tide
and you'll be wishing you had left her all alone

She hits you on your blind side gets you so your tongues tied
makes you watch her while she serves your heart to you deep fried
can't say that I lied left your self open wide
and now your wonderin how you got on such a long long ride

Songwriting, specifically, is a tool of survival that I've been able to use to manifest and maintain myself. These days I strive to be careful with the words I sing as they tend to have a way of coming true. ... more
