Recorded live in the studio at Drexel University, engineered by the very talented Alec Henninger. An attempt to describe my reasons for loneliness and how to resolve it.

Lyrics

Here goes my attempt at writing 16 lines.
Giving you a glimpse into a desperate mind.
I’ve been on a spiral that just declines.
I’ve wanted to die about 16 times.

That’s one for every year my parents kept me quiet.
They were selling smiles, although they would just deny it.
They let everybody except for me buy it.
Depression is a riot one day you will try it.

But I’ve been on a diet of lies and broken promises.
I just think that this is a sign of the kind of time it is.
Filling loneliness with work, songs and kisses.
It’s not really a life if you never find your misses.

I’ll explain the sadness and you will say you get it.
But everything I said, you know, I already have said it.
And everything I said you know I later just regret it.
So this is just a glimpse of where you and me are headed.

I don’t want to be alone anymore.
I feel like I’m falling off the edge of the world

They say life is what you make of it and love is what you take from it.
Put something in place of it - you already have wasted it.
Follow my vernacular; it’s not all that spectacular,
I’m just a lonely bachelor trying to match a bachelorette.

I’m waiting for my candy rain with my umbrella candy cane.
That may sound a bit insane but that’s what in your child’s brain.
Vickie Vale pursued Bruce Wayne, Clark Kent had a Lois Lane…
Even Tarzan had a Jane so I’ve change my name to Benny Vain.

At night I become SuperSelkow, hook you with my tennis elbow,
Stick to you like glue and Velcro maybe you will never let go.
Jokes aside, killed my pride; Let some cricket be my guide.
The day it died I think I cried but that’s because I have no bride.

Have no kids, have no wife,
(if) you have no love, you have no life.
That’s what emptiness feels like,
mines so thick you can cut it with a knife.

But I’ve been on a diet of lies and broken promises.
I just think that this is a sign of the kind of time it is.
Filling loneliness with work, songs and kisses.
It’s not really a life if you never find your misses.

I’ll explain the sadness and you will say you get it.
But everything I said, you know, I already have said it.
And everything I said you know I later just regret it.
So this is just a glimpse of where you and me are headed.

I don’t want to be alone anymore.
I feel like I’m falling off the edge of the world

This is not the buy, this is just a lease.
This is not the drive, this is just the keys.
This is not the fries this is just the grease.
This is just a glimpse of the beast.

I don’t want to be alone anymore.
I feel like I’m falling off the edge of the world.
I feel like I’m falling,
Like I’m falling,
Like I’m falling.
