lyrics

SPIRAL

i should have spent the night more wisely
instead of wasting all my time
deconstructing lucy and trouble on my mind
i could have slammed the door behind you
or laughed at strangers in the dark
but i caught you making coffee
and that same old tired, withering remark

i could have shined the light more closely
instead of waving at the west
and though my hands were always shackled
i couldn't stop at second best
i could have closed the gates to dreamtown
or swam in rivers filled with gold
but i dropped the keys behind me
and that same old line is getting rather old

i could have lied and said i cheated you
you know you always had your way
through all the lines that i delivered
i never thought i'd find the time to say...

i feel the earth behind me
i saw her spiralling away
and though my body's not
the air is growing colder everyday
be still, the earth behind me
send me down - my feet are off the ground


-11/21/03 (based on a Summper 1999 sketch)

about

Chris Anderson image

Chris Anderson Alexandria, Virginia

I made my first album in 1992 and I just can't quit. This site collects what came before my recording style changed in 2008. These are the records that shaped and guided me to the music I make now. Often flawed, always right. Newly remastered, with tons of bonus tracks, this catalog is my life story. A musical memoir in real time, ragged and as rough as I.
