    Story Behind the Song
    What happens to the fire and optimism of youth when you get older and start thinking about your future? Do you forget your values, the passions that once fueled you? What still means anything to you? Wrote the lyrics originally when I was in my 20's, and now it seems like I wrote them to my future self. You get to an age where you really start wondering if you sold out. Sometimes I think I only write songs so that when I'm older I can be reminded of how much I used to know.

    music, words: Scott
    Scott: Acoustic and electric guitars, claves, vocals
    Charlie: bass, harmonica
    Bill: drums

    Lyrics
    do you feel the pressures
    from the world around you?
    are you motivated to invest your time?
    is there anything left
    that can still astound you?
    is there anything on your mind?

    do you feel endangered
    by a rising tension?
    do you keep your eyes on
    the best way out?
    is there anger brewing
    you neglect to mention
    will you ever let it out?

    do you sleep through the sunrise?
    do you sing through the pain?
    do you see with your own eyes?
    do you stare into the rain?

    did you find a shelter
    where you feel protected
    from the bloody fingers
    of the world outside?
    when your hands get dirty
    do you feel infected?
    are you tired of the ride?

    do you sleep through the sunrise?
    do you sing through the pain?
    do you see with your own eyes?
    do you stare into the rain?

    do you like your leisure?
    well you worked to get it
    is your life the finest
    it could ever be?
    are you missing something
    or did you just forget it?
    there was once a time
    when all your treasures
    your greatest pleasures
    were your dreams

    do you sleep through the sunrise?
    do you sing through the pain?
    do you see with your own eyes?
    do you think you can explain?
    then explain
