Lyrics - TB / Music SM, TB
I was at the station
Waiting on a train
To take me all the way to LA
Without a nickel to my name
Woah lazy ticket man
Wont ya please miss my row
Cuz best at most we make to the coast
From there…

RPM 2022. I finished a song.. does that count?
Well the early bird
Catches the worm
Eats it up
And shits it out
Onto the lawn
And into the dirt
Where the worms crawl
And use the soil to form
To be eaten once more
By the early birds…

Bit the apple through the core, then made sure to taste the poison

Don’t stare at the sun, an Icarus flight, we’re all meant to come, back down.
Shoot an arrow off…

2022 RPM Challenge song number 17.

I can still taste the pain of how you made me feel

I know sometimes things just ain't right
Like oil and water we survive

We fight…
