Red Bayou

This eerie murder ballad featuring acoustic and electric guitar experimentation is a semi-autobiographical recounting of a particularly dark period in my life that involved being stalked while seemingly everything was coming apart at the seams.

I drive alone
Lost in the night
Drowning my sins
Under moonlight
Drink after drink
Numbing my soul
Can’t find a way
Out of this hole

Nowhere to go
Nothing to do
Prowling the red bayou

Her stalking ways
Haunting my mind
My spirit torn
Darkness on high
End of my rope
Deep in the mud
Highways are worn
Covered in blood

Ripped her to shreds
Dragging behind
Silenced forever tonight
