about

june 13, 2012 (written and recorded in one day)

lyrics

the holes in these notes have since been boarded up
i’ve made enough mistakes to call it rough
my name is becoming something i’ve learned to forget
and when i said i’d leave, it was an empty threat.
if i follow the moon, i’ll learn i’ve done this wrong
there’s no expression left in any car radio song
kicked around the thought of us and the thought of regret
and i have had enough of these empty threats.
but love grabs horns and shakes us to the core
just enough momentum to start up from a rest
possibly the most beautiful words
mixed in with all of these empty threats.
my name is something i’m learning to forget,
and when i said i’d leave, it was an empty threat.

I totally love this album. Sky has an amazing voice...and he can play the guitar very well too. A big plus is that his music is real and from the heart. Grant Bentley
