DESCRIPTION:
Here is episode 3. I had some help from the fresh new artist Young Charles. I believe that the reason the reoccurring theme of 'sleep' from the last episode and this one, are partially due to him. I wrote this song late last night/early this morning after I played a show. Enjoy!

Fan on Medium

2:06 on my phone
on the AM side of Sunday
I must venture back to work soon
And re-retire Friday
Some day soon I will sleep in
No alarm in this good nation
My slumber it will mimick
grizzly bear hibernation
The winter frost has bitten
And the freeze has settled in
My winter beard is growing thicker
Warming my cold skin within
As I toss and turn.
One last time as I submerge
I think about the month a May
And the blossoms that emerge
now at 2:14 AM
I'm reminded once again
That I shouldn't drink coffee so late
As I may see the day begin

🎼Slipping into darkness
fan on medium setting
All the stresses of the day
Finally worth forgetting
What lays ahead is good and well
I'll tell you that's a fact
As finally my head can rest
@ 2:35 exact

🎼Storm rolls in from the west.
Alright sleep tight goodnight... Moon
Then thunder booms the rooms the clock disconnects blinking
Midnight midnight midnight... Noon
I awake heart is pounding out from my chest
Cardiac arrest I guess get well... Soon
Cortisol swimming because all of this stress
Night sweats shallow breath crazy... Loon

3:24 in the morning
Front passed
A steady down pour
Dogs. Cats.
endorphins kicked in
Fly Zzz land travel
Sleep restores my battery
Dreams from a raffle
As the house lies still
The outside starts to brew
the worst case scenario
What will we do?!

It's a sharknado Snownado
Winter typhoon
The type to gobble up
A continent and send to the moon
Super mean tornado
Steven Speilberg Jaws
This tornado
Ain't going to Oz

Ain't no yellow bricks
Ain't no wicked witch
Only snow to blow around
Great white sharp teeth fish
As I'm about to freeze
And shaking near my knees
Right before I beg please
I awake it was fake

🎼Slipping into darkness
fan on medium setting
All the stresses of the day
Finally worth forgetting
What lays ahead is good and well
I'll tell you that's a fact
As finally my head can rest
@ 4:35 exact

🎼Storm rolls in from the west.
Alright sleep tight goodnight... Moon
Then thunder booms the rooms the clock disconnects blinking
Midnight midnight midnight... Noon
I awake heart is pounding out from my chest
Cardiac arrest I guess get well... Soon
Cortisol swimming because all of this stress
Night sweats shallow breath crazy... Loon

Uneventful finally
The rest of the night
I sleep till 9:15
Give up decide its alright
To get up get some coffee
Stretch my weary brittle bones
Enjoy a nice November morning
But I'm not all alone
My family is waiting
As papa bear comes to life
My newborn baby boy
And my super lovely wife
And I begin cooking bacon
The sirens start to sound
And I hear a faint familiar noise
In the near background
