about

written and recorded 2020 on Hildegard
with Simko

Written sitting in the vaulted fourth story window of a puppet theatre in L’viv, Ukraine, watching all the little people going about their business in the streets below.

lyrics

One day I’ll be on time
Not yet, on down the line

I cut my teeth on cigarettes and 1000 pounds of crushing student debt
Made up my mind I’ll speak my peace, leave anytime cause I can break my lease

I lost my mind into the booze just a couple of times ‘fore I saw there was no use
Now what I’m wantin most of all is the space to breathe without my back up against a wall

One day I’ll be on time

Aristocrats and the city rats are wanderin in the streets
A grey cloud blocks the morning light and all that they could see
“Y’all people below, gather round, we got nowhere to be — and
If you get in my way, there ain’t much to see”

One day, we’ll be on time
Not yet, on down the line

Foggy windows and café lights are pouring in the street,
the bars are all a-closin now, the morning star to greet

One day I’ll be on time
