Fire and Stone
"Renegade"

Written in 2006
Draft Recorded in 2012
Music Video made in 2012


One of my favorite songs with the 'Westerny' feel, I wrote "Renegade" back during the Kokiri days after I wrote the 'Dare the Oblivion' album about my lost love. This is one where, when I've played it acoustically, I've always strapped on the harmonica headgear 'ala Bob Dylan. I was very happy with how the depth of marmonies worked out, reminding me a little of "The Eagles" in places. To date, Renegade has the most (and most complex) instances of tempo changes amidst active music (i.e. playing during the time of the tempo change).

Renegade is not attached to a particular album at this time. When I made the music video, I decided to theme the video as a tribute to the "Dark Tower " novels by Stephen King, which held many parallels to my musical universe, and the vast majority of artwork in the video comes from the graphic novels.




The Lyrics:

All alone I make my way
Through the harder days
With weary eyes it's hard to see
The path in front of me
As clearly as it used to be
When livin's a lot like dyin...

Kickin down this dusty road
With my heart of stone
I see your spirit in the sky
And it haunts my lonely eyes
But I can't let myself die
When you're in the wind that keeps me breathin...

Riding on through the pouring rain, I...
I cry to you (and)
I ramble on with the tumbleweeds, but
I keep coming back...
Coming back to you...

This old renegade could just lay down and die
In a dream of you...

All my life I've been looking for
A woman I adore
Whose heart is bold and love is true
And I found those things in you
One day I'll come back for you
When the storm is calm and the sun is rising...

Riding on through the pouring rain, I...
I cry to you (and)
I ramble on with the tumbleweeds, but
I keep coming back...
Coming back to you...

This old renegade could just lay down and die
In a dream of you...

This old renegade could just lay down and die
If I found my way back to you...
