I've been Chasing ghosts and facing my fears trying hard not to show my tears but it's hard most days not to break down here all is quiet but nothing is clear I'm chasing ghosts that haunt my mind it's safe to say it takes up most of my time I hate to say it but it's killing me holding on to fight this feeling How can you win when you're fighting yourself? How can you draw from an empty well? I don't have answers and I'm not real sure but day by day I find ways to endure Chasing ghosts that haunt my mind Safe to say it takes up most of my time I hate to say it but it's killing me Holding on to fight this feeling

My mind is haunted by the ghosts of my past the people I've known, some are living some have passed and now I sit in this empty house alone A husk of a man a shell of flesh and bone Poltergeists surround me they're a making of my own and I'm the only one who can hear them wail and moan but if I close my eyes and pretend that they're gone they have ways of reminding me that I'm never alone I shuffle through these rooms like a zombie on the loose an empty vessel without a purpose or a use and all of my neighbors they cower in their fear everyone knows this house is haunted here.

How can I explain this to you? How can I explain that all of my pain is right here? With my heart in my hands how can I make you understand how I feel? How I feel Yesterday It all seemed so plain but I'm standing in the rain with my shoes soaking through and my voice is hoarse from sobbing as I stand out here knocking "please come home" please come home Then I'll slowly take your hands into mine as we both put our hearts on the line and I need for you to trust me this all happened so abruptly this last time but this is the last time

about

an uncut version of the "Chasing Ghosts" album, with two unreleased tracks.

This album was carried on the back of a period of self-reflection for me. I was doing allot of self-evaluation and confronting certain aspects of my life that I've ignored for a long time. It's not over, I still have allot of reflection and clean-up work to do. This was the biggest step though. The catalyst. The period in which I began "chasing ghosts".

The photo was taken in a local cemetery in the dead of winter. It was probably negative 20 degrees out with a foot and a half of snow on the ground. Although it's edited out of the picture frame, I was wearing knee-high rubber boots over my suit to keep everything warm and dry. The wind was high and I almost lost my hat a few times.
