Story Behind The Song
I wanted to dash the hopes of the dream world by exploring the truths of the real world. It?s a look inside the mind of a band leader trying to find a place for his music. In a world saturated by songs and songwriters, the glimmer of hope seems ever so small.

Lyrics
Ask me why am I still waiting
Looking like I'm satisfied
Ask me why our public rating?s amplified
Ask me why am I still waiting
Ask me if I've found some peace here
I'll tell you life's the same wherever you go
I'll find mine
Why can't I launch into space indulge in the starry sky
Why can't I just dream of a place indulge in my own hi-fi
Selling music isn't easy
Binding insecurities
People want to breach my sleazy CD fees
Selling music isn't easy
Selling tunes won't buy us peace here
But they will buy my porch to ride anyway
I'll find mine
Why can't I launch into space indulge in the starry sky
Why can't I just dream of a place indulge in my own hi-fi
I've come accustomed to the beatings
Everything inside is strangled for some truth
If I never make the meetings
I'll wonder why I never tried
Why can't I launch into space indulge in the starry sky
Why can't I just dream of a place indulge in my own hi-fi
