Well I was fumbling drunk in a big city bathroom, pushing my key to the corner to see what I find, then I stumble out and get back in line. Everyone says it’s the bar of the century, with the best local shows and a cheap beer on entry. I know, but the place just really isn’t my type. So I get my coat and I stumble out and into the night. We want to get so much more than the lonely life that we’ve been handed. Hit the streets, we’re going to settle that score. The shadow of the city, there’s a light still shining. But if that light goes out, if we let the dark surrounds us, we’re going to run this town, or this is going to be the way they say they found us. I feel my grave start to pull on me; just in the way I’ve started to grey, and I shake thru the night. I had a friend and I lost him. That’s how it is. That’s how it goes. I guess its life. Some people get rich, some people quit, and some people die. I still recall the night we got drunk and laughed because I would set my sights on impossible horizons, now; I need a minute to adjust my eyes before I venture on. But you go and you hung your guitar up on your so called silver lining. Take a step back and admire it. If it were me I know I’d say that I couldn’t breathe. We want to get so much more than the lonely life that we’ve been handed. Hit the streets, we’re going to settle that score. The shadow of the city there’s a light still shining. But if that light goes out, if we let the dark surrounds us, we’re going to run this town or this is going to be the way they say they found us.

Micah is one of my favorite songwriters around, and also an all around gentleman and scholar. Both his solo work and his work with Two Cow Garage seem to work their way into my regular music rotation with ease. doug shaw
