about

Mo's guitar parts elevated this song. I was unsure about keeping it on the album before his parts were added.

lyrics

In the Path of Progress
(Case)

Stumbling
over the road blocks
in my head
Self-doubt
accompanied by the crippling dread

Stop.
Don't second guess, it's a test you can't pass
maybe it's trash
it's all right.
You won't lose your life,
or any sleep in the night.
Just do what you like.

"No"
is the unscalable wall
in the path of progress.
You can't climb,
but in time you may break through it yet.

Stop.
Don't second guess, it's a test you can't pass
maybe it's trash
it's all right.
You won't lose your life,
or any sleep in the night.
Just do what you like.

Don't waste your time.
Don't waste your breath.
and please don't take
another step.
The only thing
You're gonna get
is more of pain
and more regret.
Don't show your hand,
that's better kept.
You should've looked
before you leapt.
Caution must be exercised in depth!

Restraint,
I have it but it's seemingly
randomly deployed.
Leaving the recipient surprised,
and sometimes annoyed.

Don't waste your time.
Don't waste your breath.
and please don't take
another step.
The only thing
You're gonna get
is more of pain
and more regret.
Don't show your hand,
that's better kept.
You should've looked
before you leapt.
Caution must be exercised in depth!

Don't waste your time.
Don't waste your breath.
and please don't take
another step.
The only thing
You're gonna get
is more of pain
and more regret.
Don't show your hand,
that's better kept.
You should've looked
before you leapt.
Caution must be exercised in depth!
Gotta keep yourself in check!

I write music.

I listen to music.

I genuinely just love music.

I have a song available in "Rock Band" and that makes me smile.

Yeah, I'm the guy who did the soundtrack for "The New Adventures of Captain S".

I probably release too many albums, but I do attempt to find a good balance between quality and quantity.

Thank you. ... more
