about

Written by John McColm

Recorded LIVE at The Park Tavern in Macclesfield on Friday 6th Feb 2015 with a select group of very special people who have shown me support and enriched my life and musical experience in so many ways.

Special thanks to Howard Beaumont for his intelligence and ideas and for making me do it!

lyrics

When I started this journey - when I started this trip
I wasn't looking for money, I was just trying to get a grip
on where my journey was leading - on where my trip would end
in a pool of blood bleeding, here lies my very best friend

I didn't think that it was loaded, I didn't think that it would shoot
so I went and got loaded, I didn't think that sober would suit
a man with blood on his hands, a man with blood on his mind
a man in need of redemption, a man with no peace of mind

it's like there's demons in me
I feel there's demons in me
I look in your eyes and see
I look in your eyes and see
the demons in me

She wasn't really an angel but she's with them now
looking down from up in the sky, playing harp on a big white cloud
I'm sorry Angel for shooting you down in flames
I'm sorry Angel for leaving and I know there's only me to blame

and as I finish this journey, as I finish my trip
I still ain't got no money and I've only got a tenuous grip
I've taken pictures of my heroes, I've got a snapshot of you
I said goodbye to all my heroes, I can't say goodbye to you

it's like there's demons in me
I feel there's demons in me
I look in your eyes and see
I look in your eyes and see
the demons in me

and as I finish this journey, as I finish my trip
Lord knows I still ain't got no money and I've only got a tenuous grip
I've taken pictures of my heroes, I've got a snapshot of you
I said goodbye to all my heroes,
I said goodbye to all my heroes,
I said goodbye to all my heroes,

I can't say goodbye, I can't say goodbye

I can't say goodbye to you

John McColm Macclesfield, UK

John is an independant musician from the UK. Apprenticed in 2000 for three years as a street musician, he now plays a set born from the need to play 'songs people know' whilst remaining true to his own musical instincts. Known in Macclesfield and Aschaffenburg', his music holds the listener in a spell primarily based on rhythm but ultimately cast by the intensity of the vocal performance. ... more
