Matt, Your a hidden gem! Everyone should hear your talent! Keep on that level of frequency and wishing you a safe eventful travels! Also, Thanks to The Southern Heat for providing this magic! 👍
I started learning the banjo cause of this man. I met him a month ago and goddamn I was blown away seeing his live performance. He’s a hell of an artist. I can’t wait till he comes back
Great stuff!!! I'm an old crusty acoustic picker/singer... I'd love to cover this... probably forgo the capo... being a baritone... will see. Thanks for writing such a great song. I don't, or should I say can't, write lyrics if my life depended on it. I know a lot of songwriters, I cover their tunes as well... You're in good company.
If I come back this way again I hope to be the person everybody thinks I am Pull the wool from out my eyes Oh, sweet heaven when I die Where there's a will, there’s a way Time goes on and it gets harder every day Desperation, a death to hope Choking words caught in my throat How will you tell the ones that care I'd rather die by your hands Then find new love anywhere Too late to rise You've been down for so damn long this time Dark days, long nights Midnight sun take the light from out my eyes You’ve got me shaking all the time And pining out for a life I left behind I cannot think, I cannot breathe I seek the end, my sweet release I feel the darkness coming in St. Michael say a prayer The dragons back again Full of snakes like every man This is a fight no one will win I have lived on borrowed time Just waiting for a sign For redemption in your eyes Too late to rise You've been down for so damn long this time Dark days, long nights Midnight sun take the light from out my eyes She pays ten dollars for the show Makes her way through the crowd And cuts from throat to throat Up to the front where the lights hang low The dying crowd just wants one more And now we stand there face to face It all comes rushing back like it was yesterday Love and tears, hope and hate Bergamot buckskin and lace My trail ends in those pale floodlights 'Neath the curtains and the smoke With the blood, the lead, and love Still stuck inside my throat When it's Too late to rise You've been down for so damn long this time Dark days, long nights Midnight sun take the light from out my eyes
I wonder if Matt also fell in love with a Scandinavian. us Southern boys falling in love with women all over the world due to our restless romantic hearts.
This song broke me down. Back to the man I am. I want to be better, man. 33 and searching. Thank you. From California.
This guy is a folk legend in the making. Much love from WV Matt. Thank you for being a genuine artist and all the hard work you provide to us fans

If I come back this way again
I hope to be the person everybody thinks I am
Pull the wool from out my eyes
Oh, sweet heaven when I die
Where there's a will, there’s a way
Time goes on and it gets harder every day
Desperation, a death to hope
Choking words caught in my throat
How will you tell the ones that care
I'd rather die by your hands
Then find new love anywhere
Too late to rise
You've been down for so damn long this time
Dark days, long nights
Midnight sun take the light from out my eyes
You’ve got me shaking all the time
And pining out for a life I left behind
I cannot think, I cannot breathe
I seek the end, my sweet release
I feel the darkness coming in
St. Michael say a prayer
The dragons back again
Full of snakes like every man
This is a fight no one will win
I have lived on borrowed time
Just waiting for a sign
For redemption in your eyes
Too late to rise
You've been down for so damn long this time
Dark days, long nights
Midnight sun take the light from out my eyes
She pays ten dollars for the show
Makes her way through the crowd
And cuts from throat to throat
Up to the front where the lights hang low
The dying crowd just wants one more
And now we stand there face to face
It all comes rushing back like it was yesterday
Love and tears, hope and hate
Bergamot buckskin and lace
My trail ends in those pale floodlights
'Neath the curtains and the smoke
With the blood, the lead, and love
Still stuck inside my throat
When it's
Too late to rise
You've been down for so damn long this time
Dark days, long nights
Midnight sun take the light from out my eyes
Dope
So beautiful, just no idea how to Play 😩
❤
Was für ein großartiges Lied, vielen Dank und Grüße aus Berlin/Germany!

Good guitar player but can't carry a tune.
