lyrics

Now I haven’t seen you in forty days and nights
And I’ve trouble sleeping when I turn off all the lights
I’m drinking and eating but my clothes still don’t fit right
And every morning, well I’m waking overtired

And there’s a hole within my chest and nothing can fill it
Yeah there’s a beast beneath my bed and nothing can kill it

My head’s full of lightning. I’m a stripped and tangled wire
My heart keeps on beating and my blood is filled with fire
I focus on breathing and continue to perspire
Now I’m over thinking for half the goddamn night

And there’s a hole within my chest. I wish I could fill it
Yeah there’s a beast beneath my bed. I wish I could kill it

I’m worn out pretending that everything’s alright
I’m over explaining why I always seem uptight
So I’m doing something that’ll help me to rewrite
The words that I’m singing and continue to recite

And there’s a hole within my chest. I’m trying to fill it
Yeah, there’s a beast beneath my bed. I’m trying to kill it
And there’s a hole within my chest and I’m gonna fill it
Yeah there’s a beast beneath my bed and I’m gonna kill it

Seemingly hewn from Bellarine Peninsula basalt, Seeckts’ vocal is imbued with all the heart worn grit of Steve Earle, grounding songs that are alternately heaving, shivering and jangling with feeling. Whether punching out a heartland belter or immersed in a nostalgic reverie, Nathan Seeckts delivers immense humanity, compassion, and catharsis. ... more
