Lyrics: | Underneath the covers, California colors Pictures burned into my mind Call it fascination, just infatuation Know it’s just a matter of time Selective amnesia, a game I always play Connect four, a face without a name It’s insecurity every time we meet Can’t say hello, it’s only me Stumble down the avenue I am afraid of falling down Your whispers move right through me, kind of like the movies Remember all the lines that you said It’s gotta be rejection, just can’t be perfection Painted dreams in cherry red I run away again, you know I can’t give in Head plus my heart, will never win I keep my secret safe, a secret time and place Secret I love your secret face Stumble down the avenue CHORUS x2 Skinning dirty knees still skinning dirty knees won’t matter Only time will tell, I told you so CHORUS x3 |

Said Dave: "I enjoy making a living making music as there is something always new to learn. If you know one instrument, you can learn another. If you know how to engineer one style, you can always learn another. My main question I ask myself when writing and making music is "what gives you goosebumps". The mechanics of songwriting and engineering can get quite technical, however at the end of the day its what makes you feel something."
