Outside The Light (feat. Hayden)

New one. Closest I’ve come to worship music, I suppose. Fun fact: the main guitar riff in the left ear was written in 2024. The one in the right, 1994. They finally met. I took the cover photo this September. At night. In Alcatraz. That’s what inspired the song as well.

Today I rose early
And headed out to meet the sun
Watching the shadows
Fade like everyone
Who’s tried to live outside the light
So many wasted moments
Days lost
And now I understand the cost
Our ways are unworthy
With fear and doubt we turn and run
Hiding from windows
Afraid like everyone
Who’s lied and lived with faith denied
So many hearts in torment
Crying out for mercy
And I felt it echo in my empty soul
Today I rose early
And headed out to greet the Son

I really like this one, guitars, production as well as Hayden’s voice, which I think may be the only time I’ve ever heard him not sound like a boy band voice. Well done!
