about

Sometimes moving forward means stepping back. I was homeless for a time at age 13 on the hard streets of LA. This song is to give a voice to those without one. My way of turning bad memories into meaning.

lyrics

It was the dead of night - There came a pounding rage
A single shot and everything changed

Stay out of sight - Keep on the move
Find a shadow dark and deep and unused

There's never any honor being invisible
Like an open, searing cut. A wound that never heals.
Never any honor being invisible
A familiar face you pass. A need you never see.

A big step aside - An avoided gaze
Saying, ‘His poor mother must be so ashamed’

I see, no way to win - I see, no way to leave
So I been trading in my dignity to eat

There's never any honor being invisible
Like an open, searing cut. A wound that never heals.
Never any honor being invisible
A familiar face you pass. A need you never see.

Shocks to my soul sure have taken a toll on the ones I love
Judgment and shame have taken a toll on me
I rattle my brain and I try to explain being left for dead
Slowly corrupting inside while everyone turns their head

There's never any honor being invisible
Like an open, searing cut. A wound that never heals.
Never any honor being invisible
A familiar face you pass. A need you never see.

It was the dead of night - There came a pounding rage
A single shot and everything changed
