1.
Ghost 04:19
Well here I am again, lost in thought. You appeared but said nothing, ghostlike you showed me the way. Well you never got to say goodbye, and I didn't see you leave. But before I knew it the book was closed. It was finished.
2.
Lonely 08:25
Broken and faded I don't know how to function. Old and rusted cobwebs cover over.
3.
For Now 07:34
My hands are trembling. I haven't felt this way in a long time. I'm okay for now.
4.
Naked 05:30
I'm feeling nauseous, been thinking about killing myself. I like to say I'm strong but I'm an empty shell. That man I used to be doesn't exist anymore. I've made mistakes, some big some small, I hate to tell myself, don't drop it all. I hate feeling like this. I'm feeling naked, letting my true emotions out. I'm heartbroken, been a year since I've seen myself smile. I look in the mirror, see a boy not a man. I've made mistakes, some big some small, I hate to tell myself, don't drop it all. I hate feeling like this.
5.
Oklahoma 03:31
6.
Landlines 05:50
Did you ever think that I would be wasting my time on you? Because, I've been waiting for so long, to hear your voice sing that song; It's been two years and not a single call.
7.
It's time to go now. Time to say goodbye to all your friends; it's time to play dead. At the end of it all will you be there? Will you be proud of me or will you be ashamed?
8.
Scarecrow 02:55
Oh father, why did you leave? As I stare into your eyes, you become a scarecrow. Please Scarecrow, please just let me live.
9.
Dust 07:50
You came back to me in my dreams except; this time I was alone. I was afraid and I was dead. I tried to find mom but the mother figure was gone and I turned to dust. I know what it's like to be alone; I've seen it.
10.
Goodbye love, Texas is calling. Leave me here, I'll be fine. The sun will always set, but I will never sleep till you're with me.

Carl Smith - Everything

Thank you for the constant support you have given me over the last 4-5 months. I have worked really hard on this album and hope you all enjoy it. All the money made for this album will go to getting more merch, possibly pressing cd's, better recording in the near future, and better equipment. Once again thank you for checking out this record, and I hope you enjoy it.

about

Carl Gene Baltimore, Maryland

Est. December 2012


"Smith is very open about using the music as a conduit for dealing with his depression, but the gentle nature of the music and the melody coming from Smith’s voice create a healing narrative that take the ugly and force it out of the shadows. Even on the darkest days there is sunshine after the rain." ... more
