I thought it was time for a little music video to introduce you guys to Ron, and give you a little taste of us live -- so you might come see us play at Noe Valley Ministry in San Francisco on December 13, 2003.

This song was the last song we wrote together when we were in Seattle in 1999. It's one of my favorites.

Ron had just re-learned the song when we taped this, so I had to cue him for the chord changes. That's why I keep pointing at him -- that's "the signal" for the chord change.

Hope you like it!

Lyrics

Lately, I can't seem to unwind
I'd put my feet in the air
But there's too much on my mind
And I'm just
Traveling with my face in a jar
I got one foot in the door
And things are fine how they are

But sometimes I think
I got it made in the shade
And then, starts a feeling like it's slipping away
In my mind

But everything seems ok
Everything seems ok

Dying
I'm dying to win
And I'll be killing myself
To be born over again
Are you lying?
I ain't too sure who you are
You're just a traveling salesman with your face in a jar

It's always when I think that something's coming my way
Then I get that funny feeling like it's slipping away
For the last time

But everything seems ok
Everything seems ok
Yeah

It's always when I think that something's coming my way
That's when I get the feeling it's all slipping away
In my mind

But everything seems ok
Everything seems ok
Yeah everything seems ok
Everything seems ok
Yeah everything seems ok
Everything seems ok
Yeah everything seems ok
Everything seems ok
Yeah everything
