Verse I just can't seem to get a grip A few steps ahead and then I slip Darkness filling up my days There's got to be a better way I give my best yet still I fail I'm walking in a rain of hail Not sure I've got much more to give This is not how I want to live Chorus I'm getting nowhere Pulling out my hair Rather die than ride swimming against the tide Not feeling a choice No one hears my voice I'll give up and hide Swimming against the tide Verse Walking in quicksand No one offers a hand I can't pay this cost I'm feeling so lost I offered my heart Yet still miles apart I can't stand this pain I'm no longer sane Chorus I'm getting nowhere Pulling out my hair Rather die than ride swimming against the tide Not feeling a choice No one hears my voice I'll give up and hide Swimming against the tide Bridge Frustration Irritation Alienation Overtaking me Isolation Humiliation Desperation Becoming me Chorus I'm getting nowhere Pulling out my hair Rather die than ride swimming against the tide Not feeling a choice No one hears my voice I'll give up and hide Swimming against the tide

The Pallbearers Of Truth

By Sean Sullivan


This is a blues song that laments the startling sudden, and recent, death of truth in modern Western culture. Whether you feel that it died at the hands of the media, the Internet, shallow self-serving politicians, or their followers, we can all agree that it’s fatally wounded. The music for this song needs gravel and anger, but should also evoke an arm-around-a-stranger’s-neck sing along at an Irish Bar, as if we’re partying at our own wake.

Rollercoaster

I wrote this song while listening to Ladyfingers by Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass. It’s a song about how life changes or how we see it differently once we find love.
