A song dedicated to the weathered life-living human. Trials and tribulations mixed with secret compartments of woodsy car parts kept safe for a future project never to be achieved. Sometimes we only need to read part of the book to get the full story. ‘Failing is the road, but the heart is home.’ Everyone has inner soma waiting to ignite but without experience and failure, can we truly appreciate the juice of a life well lived.
lyrics
I don’t know why camas fall to earth like comets drawn by God,
Take it in,
A leopard print old Beretta in a hand bag that I stole on Christmas Day,
Broken down Camaro parts,
Left in the woods,
To claim,
Don’t you know your calm cause it’s you?
Failing is the road but the heart is home.
Can’t you see it’s easy when you see the beauty in your hands,
Take away your oneness and realize you’re never who you, think you are.
God we look so old cause it’s you
I don’t want to waste my time,
Trying to take the courage away from anyone,
I knew that you’d made it all this way,
Believe me it’s over now,
Don’t you know your calm
Cause it’s you,
Failing is the road,
But the heart is home

Sail Cassady came alive while reading ‘on the road’ by Jack Kerouac in 2012. The adventure, art and imagery held within the
parameters of a single book birthed the idea that the same concept could be experienced within a song or a band.
