I Want to Be a Goodman

Music and Lyrics by: Josh DeL Performed by: Phoenix Splash

Philosophical at the speed of sound,

It grows smooth yet seems so very fragile,

Always older but seemed so very small.

Tears are falling like water on a windshield.

Trapped in our ways, we’ve been told that life is not about our stories.

Place your hands in those alive, dis-remember all the dead.

If I can ask of you tomorrow…how it feels to finally fly?

Today I seem to smile, but the line has lost its way.

Always beat me to the punch line, but I’m always here to tell the joke!

Maybe I wouldn’t feel so out of place.

To not belong to be erased

You can criticize my song, you can redraw all my dreams, redraw my face.

It doesn’t matter! All the bleeding sweat and tears don’t make a river!

It falls into an ocean filled with hopeless obscurity!

If I can ask of you tomorrow…how it feels to finally fly?

Take me far away from here…make me be the best me I can be.
