Brian McGrath - One More for the Angels

Track #9: 'One More for the Angels'
The closing track on 'The Lonely Hour.' A lullaby. The epilogue. Perhaps lulled more awake than asleep. It's the moment of resignation, of clarity, of true sight. It's the acceptance. The end or the departure. Both hang in the balance.
At its core, 'The Lonely Hour' is the battle to understand self, to come to terms with the past, to find peace. Of surrender...in order to survive. This tune is deceiving simple, but it was a very difficult one to write. I worked for every letter of every word in every line of lyric...except the last lines. 'I don't know, Darlin' I don't know.' Those fell out of me from somewhere very deep within. They say nothing and everything, and after all, isn't that the truth of it?
My new album 'The Lonely Hour' releases Friday, November 3rd.
