    Shane is one of the best guys I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. He let me crash at his house when I was homeless and just busking for money. We had some good times. People really should listen more to his music, he has such great lyricism, and we had some great jams together. Much love.

    This is so beautiful.... this song spoke to me.

      How are you doing today, 9 months later? I hope really well! I’ve been an alcoholic and stimulant addict for years but finally got sober almost a month ago. It’s fucking hard. If you need someone that understands, I super do! Thinking of you, stranger!

    It's thanks to this channel that I discovered this band, and I genuinely listen to the few videos of this guy ever single day. His lyrics are insanely on the money; it's mental when a singer makes ya realise it's always possible to be more straight up and honest in yer own music, even when ya think ya already are.
    -Basically, that thing of "oh my word, he's saying things about feelings in a far more concise manner than I'd previously realised..."

    I am the dog sleeping on rocks that have been sealed in concrete postures
    Just to beautify the nature in this downtown park
    I have been praying westward towards a mecca called Santa Cruz
    I will accept that there's no heaven when I accept that there's no booze
    But I feel weak
    Cause I can't speak
    Can't finish sentences
    Like I used to
    I concentrate on all the positive things I have in my life
    Like my family and this one girl who keeps me sane at night
    And I feel bad
    That I feel bad
    I give them grief
    When I don't have to
    I am the anger that you feel when you realize nobody cared at all
    I am the anger at yourself or maybe at the alcohol
    I am the rush that you get when you ponder taking a life
    But to say that you were serious would just be another lie
    And you feel weak
    You can't speak
    Can't help but feeling
    A little tipped off
    So take me away from here
    Take me away from here
    And looking back
    Give me some love
    Or give me a backpack
    I am the dog sleeping on rocks that have been sealed in concrete postures
    Just to beautify the nature in this plastic wing-field park
    I am the strength between relations
    I am fascination, bipolar aggravation
    I am self-medication
    I am masturbation
    I am indoctrination
    And you are a greyhound station
    So take me away from here
    Take me away from here
    And looking back
    I don't need love
    I just need a backpack
