about

Car Song is track No 02, from the upcoming album 'Postcards from my Youth'. Car Song is a song about the journey through time and space we call life. It's about feeling stuck, much like a broken down car on an empty highway, surrounded by nature. The so called quarter life crisis. In Car Song our narrator, wakes up within a dream, where he is that car. With chill acoustic and spacey el. guitars, a killer drum beat, Car Song is a soft rock banger. Meant to be played loud, in a car or wherever. Just press play and go into this wild world

lyrics

I dream of starring down a highway
And time stops as I do
The wind is pounding on my face, my heart is beaten and my hands
Are wondering what I’m gonna do

Black scary mountain is risin’
The night is young and so are you
The moon will work as my flashlight
As I’m heading straight towards my doom

And I scream
Oh, brother
And I cry
My eyes are like hot-air balloons
Oh how I try
To get out there, into this great wild world

Coyotes’ howling in the background
I’m stranded tire’s gone too
How time passes as I fall down
There’ll be a time that I won’t rise too

It’s written in the yellow pages
The struggle and this lonely tune
Smoke’s guiding thoughts along the mountain
And the fireflies are dancing with the moon

And I scream
Oh my brother
And I cry
My eyes are like hot-air balloons
Oh how I try
To get out there

Into this great wild world
Into this great wild
World
