about

An old song, brought back to life, about letting go of old, destructive patterns and growing a bit as a person. The end of one world is the start of another.

lyrics

Give a little, take some more
With your shackles on my heart, and your foot in the door
Cry a little, scream some more
I've never been down here before

In the water, off the land
I don't know how to swim, and I don't understand
Give no quarter, show your hand
I never quite know where to stand; I never did know how to land
There's no mystery: how could you get it so wrong?
There's a history: and it's carved in every face
And sung in every song, in every song

At The Bender, and 303
Sometimes you get a stamp, and other times it's free
Just remember, it's not me
I'm not who I appear to be; I never said that I was he
