Story Behind The Song
I wrote this song for a friend of mine that was going through a rough time and feeling lost and disconnected from his life, and generally feeling like the "Odd Man Out".
Song Description
This song is about a man who feels like he's on the outside of life looking in. His perception of the world and the people around him, is at odds with reality.

Lyrics
Odd Man Out
When does this dizzying
Contempletion cease?
Where does the mind go
To find some release?
All of my words
On deaf ears fell
If only I knew how to break this spell.
Chorus:
Odd Man Out
I think you said.
Is how you feel
Inside your head.
I see blessing
You see curse
Odd man out
Feels that much worse.
Verse 2:
It?s so easy to say the words
Tired old platitudes and verse.
Changing thought takes so much time.
Can?t just do it on a dime.
Bridge:
River flow
Let time
Connect the channels
Spilling brine
All you want to know
You do
Let the river
Flow to you.
