Song information
Somewhat autobiographical, but more accurately a depiction of people I know and dearly love, this song is about the deep dynamics of a troublesome human emotion.

The production end of this project began about seven years ago on a dying iMac with faulty Logic Express 8 and obsolete amp-modeling software. When the transition was made to a new computer some loops and wav files got lost.

The project ending up getting shelved in a digital time capsule for several years. I’ve attempted to salvage it and give it some new life here on this platform.

Lyrics
Verse 1

I won’t cheat you baby, I won’t be obscene.
I won’t mislead you, steal your gasoline

They’ll be food in the pantry, money in the bank.
A year from today, you’ll have me to thank for all I’ve done.
And still have fun.

But I can’t let you see inside my shame. 
It’s a painful thing. 

Verse 2 

I’m your justice warrior baby. I’m the man who fights.
I stand up for widows, orphans in their plight.
I’ll cross the burning desert, sail a stormy sea,
End your oppression, reduce misery, and right what’s wrong.
Sing victory songs

But I can’t let you see inside my shame. 
It’s a painful thing.  

Verse 3

I’m your intellectual baby, I’m a heady man.
I’m reason-ABLE, I feel things when I can.
Got lots of education, always in the know, your source of information,
can make your knowledge grow to bless this world, I’m a data squirrel.

But I can’t let you see inside my shame. 
It’s a painful thing.
