From the recording Songwriter
Written by Jason Deere
Featuring Jason Deere
If I drank a little whiskey you’d believe me
If I smoked while I played you’d stay a while
If I had a few more tattoos and chains on my boots
Then you might see my name all up in lights
But I am just a man with a guitar in my hands
Trying to carve some light out of three minutes of darkness
And love is like my sin forever breaking me again
It seems my pencil’s at its best when life’s the hardest
In a downpour of rain I search for fire
A songwriter
If I were a freedom fighter you’d revere me
If I waved the flag of change then you’d see in time
If I screamed out for peace ‘til I bled in the streets
And I died a martyr then you’d never forget me
But am just a man with a guitar in my hands
Trying to carve some light out of three minutes of darkness
And love is like my sin forever breaking me again
It seems my pencil’s at its best when life’s the hardest
In a downpour of rain I search for fire
A songwriter
And you’ll never know my name
You’ll never know my name
Cause I am just a man with a guitar in my hands
Trying to carve some light out of three minutes of darkness
And love is like my sin forever breaking me again
It seems my pencil’s at its best when life’s the hardest
In a downpour of rain I search for fire
Just a songwriter
And you’ll never know my name
You’ll never know my name
