I spent 10 months on the road, playing solo shows and living in the back of my van. I was constantly on my cell phone, booking the next months shows while driving to the next gig. This song came out of the strange loneliness of that experience.
Night From Day
It’s just a series of the same days, I start them all about the same way
It’s starts to vary very little as the hours bleed on
It gets a little bit easier, I get a little bit harder
You know I keep on moving but I’m just sliding by
Night from day, I feel the same way
And I wonder where you are
This empty feeling reminds me I’m alive
I’m dying in the corner of this bar
I wonder if it ever seemed so strange, to anybody else that came this way
This funny feeling, that I’m about to be forgotten
But broken hearts and broken dreams, are really nothing new to me
I’m stuck in the strangest cycle, where you sorta succeed
(Repeat chorus)
It’s pushing 95, and I’m doing 70
Down 35, but I’m just 29
(Repeat chorus)
