New Single You Never Got Me

Cinematic blues-rock anthem about life.

Life can take a lot from you. What matters is what it can’t take: who you are.

“You Never Got Me” is about getting back up, looking ahead and still being able to smile at the person in the mirror.

Lyrics:

Forty years i walked the straight line

Kept my word when no one cared

Signed my name beneath the damage

Took the weight that wasn't mine to bear

First the bankers sold me promises

With a handshake and a smile

I believed that words meant something

God, i believed that for a while

I paid the price so no one else would

Stood between them and the fall

They went home and slept like children

I stayed up and took it all

And every time i thought i'd learned

Another trusted face would turn

Another lesson, another scar

Another piece of who we are

You took my money

You took my years

You left me standing

With your debts and tears

You bent the truth

You played your games

You found good people

To carry all your blame

You took damn near everything

You ever thought you'd need

But you never got me

No

You never got me

Then a friend sat at my table,

Looked me straight into the eyes.

Funny how the ones who know you

Know exactly where to place the knife.

And i carried that one quietly

Cause there were others in the way

Sometimes doing what is decent

Means you're the only one who pays

Then came number three in business

Same old story, different suit

Different words and different papers

Same deception underneath

And the bastards kept on walking

While i learned what justice means

Sometimes truth can fill a courtroom

And still get lost between the seats

I watched the clever shake their hands

Watched fools pretend they understand

I watched the guilty walk away

And honest people have to pay

You took my money

You took my years

You left me standing

With your debts and tears

You bent the truth

You played your games

You found good people

To carry all your blame

You took damn near everything

You ever thought you'd need

But you never got me

You never fucking got me

Maybe i was stupid

To believe a word was still a word

Maybe i was foolish

Thinking truth would still be heard

Maybe i should've learned to lie

Maybe i should've played their game

Maybe i'd be richer now

But i couldn't say my name

So let them count their money

Let them polish every lie

Let them toast another victory

And tell themselves they won tonight

I've got scars they never carried

I've got nights they'll never know

But there's one thing in the morning

That they can't buy, steal or own

I look into the mirror

The old man looks at me

Tired eyes.

A crooked smile.

And then

He winks

You took my money!

You took my years!

You gave me anger,

You gave me tears!

You bent the truth,

You bought your time,

You crossed every fucking line!

Take the house

Take the gold

Take the stories never told

Take whatever you believe

Will finally set you free

But you never got me!

Never got me!

Forty years and i'm still here!

Never got me!

I can face that mirror clear!

Never got me!

And if i had to live it all again

I'd still be me

So tomorrow when the morning comes

And that old face looks back at me

I'll smile

I'll wink

And say

“They took a lot, old friend

But they never got me”
