Breathe In 03:56
Breathe in Don't let that grin slip off the top of your chin Breathe out This awkward silence is getting way too loud So let's have another drink So we don't have to think and things Can just fall into place Because it feels like such a waste When the feelings that we graze Never see the light of day Breathe in Feel free to break out of this turbulence Breathe out It's time to tell me what the hell this is all about So let's have another drink So we don't have to think and things Can just fall into place Because it feels like such a waste When the feelings that we graze Never see the light of day

Another cigarette to just pass time Until I can fall asleep And you can admit that you crossed the line I understand that this is all for a bad effect But a good cause A friend of yours is laying down the law But it's been broken all along Like chalk at a crime scene I surround the gravel Where a body once was Now there's no love or balance to be lost I'm relying on the kids under the stairs To slip and fall I sure hope you can crawl Please take me out of the picture Smash it right along the fucking floor People tell me this is definitely not meant to be A drinker like you and a smoker like me Our mouths are bound to ignite or kindle A desire or need To be temporarily satisfied or sensually free Just don't forget to breathe Why must I travel through walls? Can't we just go under the stairs So on the way down we can both let ourselves Slip and fall It's your call Please take me out of the picture Smash it right along the fucking floor Love is just an excuse to get angry Don't let those fists come out Or you'll be empty handed I'm just trying to look ahead in the future I don't see happiness or any prominent sutures I never ever wanna hear the news That I'm getting too old to stumble and fall with you I'll try my hardest to relight My last cigarette Goodnight.

Hello Yellow 02:49
Hello yellow By the mellow grove I've been growing too fast and too old Just to let this go Opposite ghosts commonly attract I'm a negative, it's positive that I'll adapt To this cruel environment People people all around Can't you see what's happening to your small town Fast food and happiness Safe and sound Hello yellow Dying for some light Those materials are far too bright for us I'll take my cell phone and throw it in the street Crash my car with the TV in the back seat And walk back with my bare feet Hello Yellow Please stick around Can't you see what's happening to our small town Let's make it big And forget about what's safe and sound Burn our money And tear our clothes off.

Eyelids creep open to a ray of confusion Seeping in through your bedroom window Little do your close friends' closed minds know That you're far from sane You want to let go The pressure's echoing out Through the speakers real loud You ain't got no headphones There's an excess to think about These rocks are falling now I'm stoned Baby cuz sometimes There's a haze of strain inside of my head And I don't know if I'm better off alone, alive, or dead I'm tempted to exclude the pain And stop waiting But it couldn't hurt to see what tomorrow brings You could walk for days Ride out all the trains Get away in so many ways But in the end you'll be right back where you started Wishing everything were okay Spontaneous urges have never seemed so beautiful Specially when the makeup is so noticeably Out of control You say that there's something healthier out there You strive for help but never really care You're walking a blind man into a death stare I'll try to carry on and have some fun While you're on the run From what is best for you Cuz you're caught upon the past A first that'll never last Depending on fate You'll rethink what is true.

I'll take this pen and pad of paper And write about nothing at all Make sure that I don't express myself And keep my emotions behind a wall And I'll be sure not to mention anything That might be personal or socially insane Cuz I don't want you to know what the deal is Every notion on my brain I know were both single now But it's just a b-side to my life It don't deserve a hit song So I'll write about things that never happened And problems that never occurred Rhyme my words like I'm happy And teach lessons that were never learned I'll fake my calmness for one more stanza Conceal my thoughts for one more line But secretly I hope you get the message That it shoulda woulda coulda been fine I know were both single now But it's just a b-side to my life It don't deserve a hit song.

Should I dig my own grave? Or will you promise not to make it too shallow Like a mind out of focus Just a photograph to follow Should I dig my own grave? Or will you insist on awaking this soil From a deep overwhelmed state Causing the hue in your eyes to spoil Should I dig my own grave? Or will you seduce that rusty shovel Without any second thoughts or chances That were taken under your covers Should I dig my own grave? Or will you let the ground protrude and smother me Either way I better shave my mind So my shadow doesn't outgrow my body Should I dig my own grave? Or will you take the blame? Should I dig my own grave? Without knowing the time or day Should I dig my own grave?

Breathe Out 01:36
Breathe in Stop running there's no race to win Breathe out Face to face let's settle this now So let's take a ride today And watch the road bathe In the break of the sky's rays Breathe in a cloud of smoke And breathe out a shade of hope Because boy that's your Sun Bathed Road.

A damaged town All year round A spite that seasons cannot change I have every reason to caress her arms And tattoos of the end of days An autumn mood Winter attitude Leaves are melting like snow But these thoughts resume to grow and grow These are hard times to recover from A soft pillow breeze is a relief from the boiling Far in height sun These people drag their legs around On shifting grounds Unaware that everything will soon die They have to face the fact That sooner rather than later They're gonna have to go for a drive There used to be a green light telling you when to go But now there's a lightning bolt penetrating Your soul Oh let's take a ride on a sun bathed road And We'll change colors like the autumn's snow Oh let's take a ride on a sun bathed road And we'll simmer down in New Mexico But don't you drink the water It'll only make you hotter It'll only make you stronger It'll only make you happier So don't you drink the water It'll only make it easier It'll only make you stronger It'll only make you realize that it's not worth Being thirsty over This life is so overrated Let's get away Before we all become fated

Decoy 04:20
The population tells me that this phase of life is normal I've been showing up To a casual dinner dressed too formal I've been misinformed and told to squirm Until my eyes can no longer glisten But they are the ones who cannot see That I've decided not to listen It's all been downhill up until now I'm ready to walk through hell by any means Reality will allow So take my pride and joy It's been just a decoy for you to search and destroy I've been expecting bad news from the paperboy For far too long So I deliver this simple decoy To act like nothing's wrong You can try your hardest to twist your words Into my back But I won't feel anything Not even a heart attack You still have no idea who you are Or what you're all about So what makes you think you have me Surely Figured out So take my pride and joy It's been just a decoy for you to search and destroy Break my heart And I'll just go to the store and buy another Maybe I was craving for a claustrophobic closeness To fake Or maybe I just admired you for the time We used to waste I'd hate to tell you I never cared And somethings you do I can hardly bare But it's time to spark a road flare Because are hearts' egos are about to crash And I really don't wanna be around For the relash So take my pride and joy It's been just a decoy for you to search and destroy Steal my tender moods They were just a decoy to heal your inner wounds Break my heart And I'll just go to the store and buy another And if they run out of my size I'll just steal a bigger one until everything Is alright.

about

Rick Fewmore Ansbach, Germany

I’ll rely on my music to explain to you who I am. But for the most part I am just another human being trying to leave his footprint in the world, while hopefully taking a giant leap in the process.
