"Rip-your-guts-out Singer/Songwriter 70s Rock Ballad"...quoted from a fan at a show c.2004 Jay Scott Johnson/JayJohnsonMusic.com (from the album, ROYALBLUEMOON/BMI/JayScottJohnson)

INSIDE OUT When I’m all turned inside out Burnin’ heart out on my sleeve Would you put this fire out? Would you pack it up and leave… when I’m all turned Inside Out? When I’m lyin’ on the floor Dust and whiskey on my face Would your shadow cross my door? Would you choose to take my place… when I’m lyin’ on the floor? CHORUS Take this bottle from my hand Take this bitter from my tongue Take this scarecrow of a man Take this shamble of son… When I’m all turned Inside Out When I’m standin’ in the rain Choking on my wasted tears Would you shatter from the strain? Would you wish away these years… when I’m standin’ in the rain? When I’m hiding from the storm Soaked in silent, secret shame Would my shelter be your arms Would they break under the blame… when I’m hiding from the storm? CHORUS c.2004 Jay Scott Johnson/JayJohnsonMusic.com (from the album, ROYALBLUEMOON/BMI/JayScottJohnson) x

Song Comments Voices This is my favorite Jay Johnson song - it's utterly bare, a Man's Journey yet one we can all relate to.
