about
I wrote this song reflecting back on the past 5-6 years of my life, running around like crazy, trying to be something in this world. The path hasn't always been clear, but I always knew that I was supposed to keep going - trying to be something, anything.
I reached out to one of my favorite artists, Scott Orr, to see if he would be up for adding some of his synthesizer magic to the track. I was so elated when he said yes.
lyrics
The last light in the canyon
Paints with colors I’ve never seen
Two young companions
In a car holding everything
Three long days from the midwest
Late night hotel room cries
Trying our hardest
To savor the fading light
You and me, chasing dreams
Trying to be, anything
We’re trying to be, trying to be, trying to be
Anything, anything, anything
Piles of credit card statements
Written history of dreams that died
I guess that’s entertainment
At least we can say we tried
You and me, chasing dreams
Trying to be, anything
We’re trying to be, trying to be, trying to be
Anything, anything, anything
