about

Recorded in 2023, Sober Morning describes a man's daily battle with temptation and yearning. Acoustic guitar and bass drive the rhythm while mandolin paints the melancholy tune with strokes of hope and perseverance. The conclusion of each chorus marks the start of a new day with the rising sun, as the harmonious group vocals symbolize a sense of liberation from past struggles and hope for what lies ahead.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Sober morning hit me like a rogue wave
Floats by like the first day of spring
Navigate the world from my window
And bow to a headless man
Can only see from my shoulders down

Can’t unsee, crystal clear, rectify, sober mind
Sun will rise up in my eyes

Sober morning hits me like a cold rain
Can’t count on my instincts no more
You can mean the world to me baby
But who's gonna miss me when you go
I’m always waiting on my girl to get back home

And bring me some relief
Time spins like a clock so silently
Wide awake but all I want is sleep

Sober morning hits me like an earthquake
Blast stokes a fire in my eye
Like alchemists sun-gazing on a solstice
Looking for what’s looking to be found
Always looking for what’s looking to be found

Can’t unsee, crystal clear, rectify, sober mind
Sun will rise up in my eyes
Can’t unsee, crystal clear, rectify, sober mind
Sun will rise up in my eyes
