    One of just 1000 physical CDs pressed of my first album, She Makes Noise. Replete with references to social music websites that no longer exist! Once they're gone, I'm not pressing anymore, and this is pretty much the only collectable item that exists as far as my first album goes, so this is your chance to grab one before I'm famous (I joke...). Let me know if you'd like me to sign it for you.

lyrics

Riding on the night train
Stuck in end time
Missed the jet plane
Anything to get me back to you

What is this sublime confusion?
You set fire to my illusions
When I ask if what you swear is true

All my dreams are burning brightly
Crashing down around me nightly
Every time I get along with you

Stuck here trying to finish your lines
Connections on a vertical highway
Lately I’m just counting out lies
And one seems stuck on infinite replay

Got myself a one way license
Road to hell can still be frightening
End up in the same space just the same

Johnny Cash: a true believer
Tells me God’s a wide receiver
Touchdowns on a transcendental plane

Some girl tells me to try it her way
I’m doubting everything I’m believing
Life’s a bitch
You hardly exist
And all that time you’re underachieving

Stairway in the Mexican desert
Carpenter of infinite measure
Walked these empty sands without a care
Once I met the empress of Asia
Trapped between her lovers and sages
Whispers hanging softly in the air

Love that felt like the sunlight
Turns shades of night
That harden your soul
Now your heart’s in the spotlight
And she’s defiantly cold

Now you’re watching the dawn light
Torch tender nights
The scorched edges curl
Say goodbye to the goodnights
She’s a hit and run girl

Leaving on the night plane
Don’t think I could stand the slow train
Anything to get away from here...
