lyrics
I get confused, waking up in someones living room
stare at the roof, don't want to move
I close my eyes, summarize the plot of the night
did I bark or leave my mark with my bite?
The sun streams through the windowsill
while I'm lying on the floor like a dead windmill
let the morning light kiss my tired face
before I find a way out of this place
who what where when why & how
now I'm wiping sweat from my furrowed brow
my nerves aren't what they used to be
but then again there's not much left of me
& I don't really know where I am
could be Hamilton or Amsterdam
man in the mirror asks who I am,
but I don't really know who I am. No!
every night there are lines that I recite,
begging to be relived with all their might
and so i try, to bring them back to life
all those memories in melodies immortalized.
now my friends are asking me all the time
if I'm a caricature of my former life;
"you sing so much of traveling,
but where in the world have you really been?
And what on earth have you really done,
have you opened your heart to anyone?"
the answers I don't understand
but I'm feeling like Alice in wonderland (because)
I don't really know where I be;
Santa Barbara or the Philippines.
Man in the mirror asks who I am,
but I don't really know who I am.
I seem to be questioning my identity.
But in the confusion, I'm feeling serene.
& I don't really know where I'm from,
could be Dresden or Edmonton.
Man in the mirror asks who I am,
but I don't really know who I am!

Do you like GUITAR!?! If so, you will probably dig this great record. 1/3 abstract patchwork, 1/3 solid songwriting, 1/3 a sick band doing what they do Doug Hoyer
