lyrics

the colors of the buildings
are in your head
i know one day
you'll understand

the color code
its blue

you're just not breaking through
not like you wanted to
you left that dream back a long time ago
easy go, easy come, you know
you left your heart on the side of the road
if you keep looking back
you'll see yourself attack
the things you learned but you already know
you'll go too far, you'll miss your only star
the only light leading back to your heart

you've got time to study,
study microbiological things
you could make some money money
micromanage all of your dreams

you're just not breaking through
not like you wanted to
you left that dream back a long time ago
easy go, easy come, you know
you left your heart on the side of the road
if you keep looking back
you'll see yourself attack
the things you learned but you already know
you'll go too far, you'll miss your only star
the only light leading back to your heart

about

Scott French Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I played everything on these recordings. And also recorded them myself. Mostly because I'm poor and have no friends.
