Lyrics: Sun through the blinds Leaving stripes on the rug I would open my eyes You’d be already up spinning Circles on your toes You’d wear my mom’s necklace I’d watch it swing right to left In that charleston apartment A true treasure chest and to me You were gold
I was so accustomed to having you with me Falling in love was a part Of my everyday routine
I always thought you and me Would never actually grow up We’d talk in little kid voices Like we’re still treehouse young And time would leave us alone Because we were special enough It all felt special enough to us
I was so accustomed to having you with me Falling in love was a part Of my everyday routine
And that’s quite the high to come down from I’m not sure how the future’s gonna measure up Falling in love was a part of my everyday routine

LYRICS:
Knock on my door, badge and a gun "Can we come in?" "Am I in trouble?" "No you're not, son, but you're the victim Somebody stole your identity He's been leading a chase, up through the Highlands Scared that he'll make it past state lines and We'll lose him for good, you'll be a ghost He'll become you, no one will know"
The cops are talking, I can't hear 'em I'm jumping up and down at the TV screaming
Run, baby, run Don't you let 'em light you up Foot on the gas You could be the best of us Take my name, take my age Take the dreams I had saved Be a man, talk your shit Don't live life so afraid Run, baby, run You could be the best of us You might be the best of us
My time on earth, mostly awash What I would give to be in that car Feeling the weight of every second Driving away from my reflection
The cops are shooting out the tires He's driving on the rims, they're catching fire
Run, baby, run Don't you let 'em light you up Foot on the gas You could be the best of us Take my name, take my age Take the dreams I had saved Be a man, talk your shit Don't live life so afraid Run, baby, run You could be the best of us You might be the best of us
Now he's out on the chase They're sending the dogs Scaling a fence and cutting through lawns Drawing their guns, the chopper's above They're about to light 'em up Oh, don't you let 'em, don't you let 'em You better, you better
Run, baby, run Running for the both of us Shots ringing out Watching as they light 'em up There it goes, every hope to escape Got so close, now I'll drive 95 Towards the hell I call home Run, baby, run You could be the best of us Would've been the best of usEvery family has a black sheepSam MacPherson2026-01-14 | ...Put on a rock show to prove my parents wrongSam MacPherson2026-01-07 | ...“Hope someday you’ll join us, and the world will be as one” #johnlennon #imagine #coversongSam MacPherson2025-09-12 | ...Springsteen has a son?? #springsteen #originalsong #sammacphersonSam MacPherson2025-09-10 | ...Dancing in the Dark #cover #springsteenSam MacPherson2025-09-10 | ...Be right there honey #rockmusic #guitarsoloSam MacPherson2025-08-21 | ...“I’m gonna get you” is wildSam MacPherson2025-08-08 | ...August 5, 2025Sam MacPherson2025-08-06 | ...August 5, 2025Sam MacPherson2025-08-05 | ...Maybe I remember it wrongSam MacPherson2025-08-05 | ...What’s your problem #foryouSam MacPherson2025-06-02 | What’s your problemJust put out an album but the self-destructive part of me wanted to write this and share #foryouSam MacPherson2025-06-01 | Just put out an album but the self-destructive part of me wanted to write this and share#gardenstate #zachbraffSam MacPherson2025-05-31 | ...Everyone’s got a local boardwalk legend that looks like a muscular raisinSam MacPherson2025-05-30 | Everyone’s got a local boardwalk legend that looks like a muscular raisinSend this to someone who needs this reminder #foryouSam MacPherson2025-05-29 | Send this to someone who needs this reminder.

Watching all the out of towners Drowning in a foot of water Guess I’ll swim them to the beach Carrying a keg through Long Branch Could barely hold it up with both hands Got a little help from the police Spend your whole life Hating where you ‘Til you realize Love and hate share the same back yard I’m coming to you live from August Always I’m coming to you live from the place where time stands still Time stands still I’m just gonna be who I’ve been always And always will I’m only full of fake wisdom So if we ever have children They won’t get it from their dad Your childhood was south of heaven And yeah we’re only 27 You’re always gonna be 3 years ahead Spend your whole life Hating where you’re from On a cold bike Racing home to the ones you love I’m coming to you live from August Always I’m coming to you live from the place where time stands still Time stands still I’m just gonn be who I’ve been always And always will Spend your whole life Hating where you are ‘Til you realize Love and hate share the same back yard I’m coming to you live from August Always I’m coming to you live from the place where time stands still Time stands still I’m just gonna be who I’ve been always And always willSam MacPherson - I’m Not From Anywhere Else (Official Video)Sam MacPherson2024-09-11 | August Always & I'm Not From Anywhere Else Out Now: sammacpherson.lnk.to/INFAE
Lyrics: I’m Not From Anywhere Else You had to be there Leaving Dublin House in the dark Kyle and I fist fighting in some nice lady’s front yard In translation Nobody’s aiming to lose their teeth There’s probably a place you could grow up where this isn’t therapy But I’m not from anywhere else I’m not from anywhere else They don’t make that kind of help We’re looking after ourselves Work for the city Feeling like royalty for July Diplomatic immunity going out every night Barking at Benny’s Pretending we’re God six months at a clip There’s probably a place you could go where you’re not dying the other 6 But I’m not from anywhere else I’m not from anywhere else They don’t make that kind of help I’m not from anywhere else If there’s another way you know i wouldn’t have it If there’s another place you know it wouldn’t matter If there’s another way you know i wouldn’t have it
If there’s another place you know it wouldn’t matter I tried escaping before and got to the edge Left, right looking around and breaking my neck Joe drove into Manhattan ready for war Knowing Jersey’s where were sleeping it off Yeah, yeah But I’m not from anywhere else I’m not from anywhere else They don’t make that kind of help I’m not from anywhere else But I’m not from anywhere else I’m not from anywhere else They don’t make that kind of help I’m not from anywhere else If there’s another way you know I wouldn’t have it If there’s another place you know it wouldn’t matter If there’s another way you know I wouldn’t have it If there’s another place you know it wouldn’t matter If there’s another way you know I wouldn’t have it If there’s another place you know it wouldn’t matter If there’s another way you know I wouldn’t have it If there’s another place you know it wouldn’t matter Yeah, yeahSam MacPherson - August Always (Official Video)Sam MacPherson2024-09-06 | August Always & I'm Not From Anywhere Else Out Sep 6: sammacpherson.lnk.to/AugustAlways

Lyrics: Fed up with your folks Fuck it no one understands you, alright I’m gonna flush this party pack of pills for you, alright? What makes me so qualified I feel like you half the time
And I bet you could fight this all on your own But I don’t wanna see you try Get them to notice you didn’t come home But I don’t wanna see you try
You don’t get to go yet I’m sleeping at the foot of your bed tonight Stop trynna make sense of saying goodbye No I don’t wanna see you try I don’t wanna see you try
Shouldn’t make decisions with all that blood in your eyes, alright Stop camping in the car hand me the keys we’re going back inside You don’t wanna see me preaching things that you already know
Yeah you could fight this all on your own But I don’t wanna see you try Get them to notice you didn’t come home But I don’t wanna see you try
You don’t get to go yet I’m sleeping at the foot of your bed tonight Stop trynna make sense of saying goodbye No I don’t wanna see you try I don’t wanna see you try
