Now that I know
that to love is to loathe
I roll immaculate and stoned
homebum's whine
dances in the city
let me sleep on your
fluer-de-li
somewhere in my mind
I miss the way it never was
a serenade
like a hand grenade
make yourself at home
but don't make yourself too at home
delirious with worry
sliding down these sleeping hills
in a constant state of saying goodbye
somewhere in my mind
I miss the way it never was
Chris Jeffries Homeless Romantic is an album dedicated to the traveling artists and musicians who will most likely not make enough to survive but will understand priceless bits about humanity and the world we live in. Chris Jeffries has lived in his van for the better part of a decade, surviving off of music, and traveling the world. Driving through the border of Mexico Heading south driving around aimlessly for six months before finally succumbing to E. Coli poisoning and Amoebas and driving back home. Hitchhiking from Germany to Sweden in two days with a tooth infection. Eating garbage and sleeping outdoors, or for the fortunate, a nice van. Respect to all of those who put beauty before there own well-being.
Recorded in Hayward, California Mastered in Witzenhausen, Germany
