    Story Behind the Song
    While laying in my bed in Williamsburg, where I had been for approximately 3 days, I started singing the lyrics to this song, then I got up and started playing the guitar along with the lyrics, and the song practically came out wholly in its entirety (?), which was such a relief.
    Much later, I traded a hammond organ I had acquired from my downstairs neighbors in Jersey City (they were leaving in a hurry) for 10 or 15 hours of recording time at Cat and the Fiddle studio, with Nicola Stemmer, who is "very Swiss," as he likes to say.

    Lyrics
    It's about always and never
    When will I ever
    Ties that were severed
    And running away

    It's about being a Rock Star
    And being whoyou really are
    And meaning what you say

    It's about play it from the heart
    It's about finish what you start
    It's about climb every mountain, yeah,
    and drink from the fountain and
    Go west, young man,
    and I don't think I can

    And I don't want to live
    If living means getting out of bed
    And I don't want to give
    If giving means tearing out my heart
    And rising from the dead

    It's about trains of thought
    and jumping off them
    It's about moving on before it's time
    It's about trying to remember
    And trying to forget
    And holding on to what is mine

    It's about writing a song that no one hears
    Playing it one time in between your ears

    It's about falling off horses
    And getting back on them
    And giving into fears

    Chorus

    It's about wanting to look pretty
    It's a bout being in this city
    It's about promises I can't make
    And sympathy I can't take
    It's about rhyming
    and timing
    It's about faith and letting go

    It's about falling off horses
    And getting back on them
    And giving into fears giving into fears

    Chorus
