about

The Vancouver Sun: "As Lyons gets his jazzy side on and Acharia holds the bottom down so calmly, a country song starts to emerge. The sound never goes full twang, mind you. When he sings “it’s been a long time wasting my days/Getting caught up in this only to implore the listener to help me out,” it’s moving. Then some delicious shards of slide guitar slice through."

lyrics

So cast me away like an old piece of wood
And I hope that I will float across to land
Maybe I’ll find a brand new shore
Someone will take me by the hand
She sits there a long time
I've been waiting too
For someone to stand or call
I don’t know how long it’s been
I am beginning to fall

It’s been a long time wasting my life
Getting caught up in this
Help me out

It gets so hard to speak
When the smoke is in your lungs
And your head has been pounding for days
And you are just wasting some
It get so hard to stop all these things
I got a dream it will go somewhere
It takes me so long
Only takes me so far
Because I forget these days

It’s been a long time wasting my life
Getting caught up in this
It’s been a long time wasting my days
Getting caught up in this
Help me out

I’m praying for rain
Oh I wish it could be
Because my soul has been burning for days
I just need a drop to quench all I want
And I promise it will be okay
It’s just another castaway
On this life raft hoping to float
And I am praying someone will
Just take me away

It’s been a long time wasting my days
Getting caught up in this
It’s been a long time wasting my life
Getting caught up in this
Help me out
