Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
I have walked
A thousand miles
In someone else's shoes
And I can strongly
Suggest it, as something
We all should do
To see through
The eyes of
Someone else
To make a difference
All we need to do
Is help
And I've seen faith
A working miracle
I've seen races
Breaking down their walls
I've seen life
At its greatest moments
And it's never failed
To catch me when I fall
Everybody, oh
Come together now
Everybody
Let's stand and fight against the crowd
Everybody
Tell someone you love them now
Everybody
Let's stand firm and proud
With these hands
We can change the world
Every
Man, woman
Boy or girl
Though we look away
Yet does that
Make it right?
While we
Live so well
Someone fights for life
And
I've seen faith
A working miracles
I've seen races, I've seen the races
Breaking down their walls
I've seen life
At its greatest moments
And it's never failed
To catch me when I fall
Everybody, oh
Come together now
Everybody
Let's stand and fight against the crowd
Everybody
Tell someone how much you love them now
Everybody
Let's stand firm and proud
And
I've seen faith
A working miracles
I've seen races, I've seen the races
Breaking down their walls
I've seen life now
At its greatest moments
And it's never failed
To catch me when I fall
I've seen faith
Working miracles
I've seen races, I've seen the races
Breaking down their walls
I've seen life
At its greatest moments
And it's never failed
To catch me when I fall
I have walked
A thousand miles
In someone else's shoes
And I can strongly
Suggest it, as something
We all can do
To see through
The eyes of
Someone else
To make a difference
All we need to do
Is help
A thousand miles
In someone else's shoes
And I can strongly

To see through
The eyes of
Someone else
To make a difference
All we need to do
Is help
And I've seen faith
A working miracle
I've seen races
Breaking down their walls
I've seen life
At its greatest moments
And it's never failed
To catch me when I fall
Everybody, oh
Come together now
Everybody
Let's stand and fight against the crowd
Everybody
Tell someone you love them now
Everybody
Let's stand firm and proud
With these hands

The Night We Met

This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
