about

I cleaned up the broken bottles and the dust upon the shelf
When she wanted something else, I just wanted for myself
I keep chasing when the sun is in the road
This old coyote knows he’s got nowhere to go

Going backwards in the backroads of my mind
I'm hoping there to find just a little piece of time worth keeping
If I take it and make it on my own
Pull the meat right off the bone
While the birds are going home
While the birds are going home

Pulling pages from the cages from the rage I kept inside
When the storm subsides I can find a place to hide
On the beach and out of reach like an infant on the rocks
With time still on the clock I'm just trying to find the flock

Flowing freely right above me as I fall down from the trees
As I get up I stay frozen and I buckle to my knees

Mother call me no I don't know if I can be a better man
Mother call me no I don't know if I can be a better man
I need to be a better man

She said the devil wasn't playing on your side
God only knows how hard I try
To feed the circus, whats the purpose, need to let the rivers flow
I need to run them off the road, find a place where we can grow

Growing laughter and disaster as I'm tying up the seams
Of this long forgotten dream that has fallen in between
The mountain canyons, the deserts and the river with its tongue
Deep inside the lung I will wait for light to come

I will wait for light to come
I will wait for light to come

about

Claude Munson image

Claude Munson Ottawa, Ontario

Ottawa's Claude Munson writes uninhibited impressionist-folk.
Whether drenched in crystalline synths or stripped bare, Munson's songs tackle modern life and love with radical intimacy. His soaring, gritty tenor paints vivid pictures of hard promises and ecstatic joys: atmospheric narratives that unfold, Rorschach-like. ... more
