lyrics
We found you on the floor of your apartment
With every waking hour on the phone
And it took a downtown city block to remind you how to move
Things get blurry when you’re all alone.
When we found out you fell in a deep depression,
With every chance we had, you know we’d call.
But you still spent your nights alone, cold on the floor
It’s a wonder if we even helped at all
Welcome home, though we know just where you’ve been.
Is the world half as crazy as the last time you walked in?
Welcome home, have a seat with all your friends.
Though it’s been a long time coming,
You’re back in our hearts again.
Now I know it’s hard with no one to depend on,
But letting go’s a simple fact of life.
You should face the hard facts so you can move on:
That quiet swindler never was your wife.
And we found out you spent some time in Austin
With nerves as raw as steel cold bars of jail
But when you get past the bright lights and the roaring crowds,
The things that matter most always prevail
Long-running underground rocker Brian Vanderwerf is the heart and soul of these gritty songs that capture the scruffy spirit of the ’70s. Bandcamp New & Notable May 7, 2022
The slashing roots rock on “Out On the Line” always makes its way to the kind of triumphant chorus that quickens the pulse. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 2, 2023
