Autumn leaves are wisping in Old and cold, forgotten friends Riding on a changing wind Age befalls all we find The day outside , a sun that shines A winter comes, things begin again On the corner there sits hotel Bennett A little taste of living waits within it Broken hearts trying to mend Souls seeking just one friend A life of losing needs a little winning Waiting through the doors of hotel Bennett Luck has never known this door But what is rich is also poor Life is sometimes better when you're broke Sadness is a chosen vibe A smile can be worn any time Nothing wrong with holding on to hope Get to doing what you want to do Get to doing before this time is through Go on and get to doing

White Noise 04:11
I feel u out there Playing your games Crying louder for losing A spoiled child to blame Throwing my name around Like a wind up toy The well known sounds Of a bratty voice Face to face They act so gentle Behind the scenes Certifiably mental It's all white noise Hear it scream its sickening joy Self proclaimed expert is just a wanna be On a mission to meet his needs He's that boat ride you got for free Today's news , is you lost at sea

Where do the days go When the evening fades To a pile of bright or broken mornings And the nights you wish had stayed A bucket full of memories Trying hard to save Eventually they overflow On the path you laid Look back on all the sights Swim in all the sounds Rejoice in all the times we loved aloud The silver in heartbreak Turns to gold in the sun With the wind behind your back And the life within your lungs the ruins of reality Reminding you were here You kissed the jewels and broke the rules And conquered final fears Leave your Polaroids in view Tell the lies you know are true Ashes kissing ashes When the soul decides it's work is through

Can I take a stomach punch Like Houdini did Do I have the kind of strength The steel, stone, and brick The irony is even though He was so incredible He was brought down by a kid Truth is I can't take a blow of any kind Like Houdini did Am I able to escape Like Houdini did Shackles, chains , and straight jackets Bend, turn and twist Freed himself every time Hanging high, locked in tight In the face of the reapers kiss Fact is that I'll be caught, unable to get away Like Houdini did Why can't I be a magic man Vanish and then reappear Fast and smooth, sleight of hand Risk it all and have no fear when dangers near Ever since I was a kid I wanted to do wonderous things like Houdini did I will love my mrs. Like Houdini did And when called to the afterlife I'll reach out with love to send Amaze the world, for my girl One more dance, one more pearl Make good on a final promise For once I'll come through, Surprise you all, like Houdini did

Got to hold on tight to the hand that soothes this aching heart Even though, sometimes the grip is so tight it leaves a mark There were the screaming matches , locking latches More than one fresh start Got to hold on tight to the love that lights my fading star Hard to change a challenged frown when struggle fills the room Anger finds an open door and rushes in too soon There are silent stretches, placing wedges , a space that feels so far Got to always lift the powered love that lights my fading star In this universe so vast and open Loneliness leaves no hope just blind devotion Not wanting to float free, You're my gravity A strong rope and loads of commitment Prevent a fall from grace Still it takes a wanting and needing to ever survive this place As the years have passed, bombs have blasted holes in Venus and Mars Still her light did shine all the time for my fading star

So easy to smile Look at me and tell me what I want to hear How easily you cry A river within every single borrowed tear I know but then ignore Every exit door I bought a ticket to this performance Waited for the choir to sing Bought a ticket to this performance When does it end Another tired play Watching through experienced critic eyes Line after line you say Manipulate the same worn out storyline Sat in this seat before Rubs me at the core I bought a ticket to this performance Waited for the choir to sing Bought a ticket to this performance When does it end It's as though you lost my name An audience for your blame Sent some flowers backstage When I was all the rage

Everybody here Has been broken Some repair the cracks Others cry Once upon a time A child was hoping Life would be a dream and he would fly Another roll of the dice Lose to win Face the floor Then roll again Another roll of the dice Saints will sin Hell to heaven Til we rolled again Trust in everyone Was a blessing Lies are always white Until they're found Love is ever easy In the nighttime Sunlight shows the face That laid u down Another roll of the dice Lose to win Face the floor Then roll again Another roll of the dice Saints will sin Hell to heaven Til we rolled again On bended knee we pray For understanding Good days still await Your grand design

We left what we started once before We're standing once again at that open door What makes it different this time Who's keeping score Mending these hearts We've walked the line Keeping our faith Picking up pieces a bit at a time This love is our home It's stronger than stone Still which way will the wind blow I chased your trust away, it disappeared It's been a long hard road to get back here I can't blame you for running But here we are Let it flow Take a chance This time we can make it last Here we go Hold my hand

A stepchild of purgatory Painting his personal hell An angel that was disappointing Flew, then flipped and fell You, you'll see me well You, you'll see me well I'm the face in your memory that sometimes rang your bell An unexpected witness with quite the story to tell You, you'll see me well The goal was to be unforgettable Loved, hated, it's all the same A life unknown would be regrettable There'd be no glowing embers from this extinguished flame You, you'll see me well On the billboards of a small town street Blue eyes with something to sell A song that comes on the radio and sings you from your shell You. You'll see me well

Cut In Half 03:18
Was there ever a need to question Life is best when you hold my hand Could it be a lack of direction In this circle where I stand Might be said that I was lost before Becoming a stronger man At The moment you're not by my side I am cut in half I'm not always here to share the day It's a challenge that I have But there's love left in that empty space The imperfect that I am Though it's hard to know the heart that glows for you through good and bad It's a fact if you weren't in my life I'd be cut in half A dreamy prince I'll never be Balanced, always mistake free I know with great certainty That you're the best of me It's a difficult position Traveling an unknown path Slowing down these precious moments That fly by so very fast Just so you know behind closed doors Your smile begins each plan There's no doubt that if left without I'd be cut in half

about

We Loved Aloud is the 18th studio release from national recording artist Eddie Bush, and could very well be his finest work yet!

Featuring the scorching guitar laden instrumental "Wherefore Art Thou", the delicate "Like Houdini Did", the very funky and honest "Official", the joyous, celebratory title track, the ode to Charleston's Hotel Bennett, where the aforementioned serves as metaphoric fodder for embracing the moment, the uniquely rhythmic "Same Language" ...it goes on and on.

18 songs in all, produced by one of Nashville's finest, Dave Matthews, who claims that this is Eddie's "Sgt. Pepper", referencing the Beatles classic, of course.

It's a record filled with all that is expected in an Eddie Bush work -- poetic lyricism, excellent musicianship, death defying guitar lines, big and meaningful choruses. But there's even a bit more here.

We Loved Aloud is an organic framework, built by Dave and Eddie, that manages to continue finding new musical landscapes, and invites us all to "Love Aloud".
