WELL HELLO FOLKS! I'M IN ICELAND!!


This is my newest original song, called "One-Way Signs." It is also my contest entry for the "Off the beaten Track" contest via a company called Shure. This was filmed on my Samsung Galaxy Note 5 right on the shore of Reykjavik, Iceland. The first-place winner of this contest gets a trip to LA and a recording studio session worth $5,000!! HOW COOL!

Lyrics:

Missed call
I don't have time at all to return
I've got a plane to catch and things to learn
I've been years abroad,
I keep my hair short now and my adventures long.

I've grown accustomed to the customs lines,
the fluorescent lighting of
one-way signs,
I make do
as I get off of planes and out into,

The drizzly streets of Glasgow,
the salty winds of Barbados,
the heat of Spain,
I'll take any train
far away.

Letters from home
I probably won't reply
Because looking back ties me dpown
and I'd rather fly.

I've grown accustomed to the customs lines,
the fluorescent lighting of
one-way signs,
I make do
as I get off of planes and out into,

The French roads filled with cobblestones,
Taking taxis in traffic in Tokyo,
Norwegian snow,
I'll take any boat...

Far away,
it gets lonely
I won't lie
sometimes it gets lonely,
But the empty starts to fill
when NEW! is all I feel.

I've grown accustomed to the customs lines,
the fluorescent lighting of
one-way signs,
I make do,
as I get off of planes,
boats and buses and trains,
far away.
