The last song from the album,[Verse 1]
No matter how I try, I end up on the ground
Another orphan waitin' in the lost-and-found
Over and over, I take it on the chin
Fists up to the world, fighting a fight I cannot win[Chorus]
Help me lay my weapons down
Help me give the love I feel
Help me hold myself with kindness
And help me heal
Remove all of the false
Show me what is real
Oh Lord, help me heal[Verse 2]
Yeah, I'm tough but I wasn't born this way
I grew hard because I had to, carrying the weight
I wanna let it go, I wanna set it free
But everywhere I turn the fight follows me[Chorus]
Help me lay my weapons down
Help me give the love I feel
Help me hold myself with kindness
And help me heal
Remove all of the false
Show me what is real
Oh Lord, help me heal[Chorus]
Help me lay my weapons down
Help me give the love I feel
Help me hold myself with kindness
And help me heal
Remove all of the false
Show me what is real
Oh Lord, help me heal -

That was nice, thanks TG. Kind of melancholy and sad, but a beautiful song.

Jess Williamson - Chasing Spirits - from Album "Time is Accidental". Good album but it is the type of style I like. LOL

Are my love songs lies now that the love is gone?
There's the one about forever
And loving you in a past life or whatever
The difference between us
Is when I sing it, I really mean it
But I guess I wasn't listening
'Cause you always had the same questions[Chorus 1]
You've been chasing spirits
And staying up all night
You said if you don't rein it in
You're shaving ten years off your life[Verse 2]
I tried to come to you, but you didn't like the way I asked
But there's nothing in L.A. for mе
Just a lonely singer at the bеach
I could start a garden with the landlord
Something good and simple
And worth staying in town for
I was pulling cards while you jumped the cattle guard
They say lovin's hard[Chorus 2]
You've been chasing spirits
And I'm still chasing them lights
Now, who is a bigger mystic?
And who's winning a bar fight? -

"MAN OF THE PEOPLE is about the person who stands behind the disgraced politician, the religious leader that’s been caught in a sex scandal. The wife, the girlfriend, the husband, the partner, whoever is the family, the children—the people that stand behind these figures that are disgraceful. The collateral damage. I pity these people sometimes." - SW
Lyrics:
Trust, you know how to take it
Love, you know how to fake itAnd I will be there beside you
The camera eye, the drug is just to be near youHey, well I can take rejection
Hey, what does it take to get your attention?
Cos you’re a man of the people
A man of the people
And I’m just part of the planI lie here like a dog
And think of all I would undo
Anyone would go
But I got nowhere to go toAnd what is left of us?
Now there’s only the cinders
Ambition froze me out
Like a demonic winterHey, well I can take rejection
Hey, what does it take to get your attention?
Cos you’re a man of the people
A man of the people
And I’m just part of the planHush now, the winter gets you
Hush now, the winter gets you down -

Rumor has it that this guy is the next music director of the Chicago Symphony.
He's young...

Funny that you should mention that. They were the musicians and accompanying singers on the album I showed above.
