lyrics

somebody seems to know the way
of truth and the persuadable sway
of things happening
things going to happen all around
and when the shit hits the fan
and the hands of plenty are outright
will I turn the other cheek
or realize that when i die
I'll be king

somebody has told me of a story
in more ways than one
of a man of fallen glory
and body of old wooden glue
when we all fall
The sum of them all
and the weaklings come passing through
the dividends rebends
across the shepard's land
while the many become the few

so say me to a game
a totality new name
for a new life, a new song, and a new breathe
it all will be retold
it will be bought
it will be sold
and realize that someday
I'll be king

of the glamour and the show
it's all worthless you know
the joy comes from the heartache within me
when the movie has run
and the comedown is on
the beauty no more everlasting

and when the shit hits the fan
and the hands of plenty are outright singing
will I turn the other cheek
or realize that when I die
I'll be king

"Zane Brune embodies the perfect compromise between a edgy rock and roll lifer and a elusive song-writer with his own unique language and expressions. Borrowing from the vast vernacular of rock, pop, soul and alternative, Brune swings from light to darkness seamlessly and frantically within a playlist that feels like a inner travel within the most remote corners of the human psyche." ... more
