From the recording Crossroads Of Crazy
This was an idea I had been kicking around for awhile and it was finally born when I had the chance to write with Michael Lusk in Nashville. Michael is a great guitar player, thinker and writer and we really had a great time writing together. This is one of many more in the pipeline. The inspiration for the song was from a famous female country artist going through some life-changing events and the confusion and chaos that she seemed to be going through.

CROSSROADS OF CRAZY

V1:He turned my world upside downNow storm clouds are all I seeSeems everywhere I turn,Lightnin’ strikes in front of me His same old story, same BSAbout needin’ to be freeI feel like Alice lost in WonderlandCH: Standin’ at the crossroads of crazyNot sure I'll ever know which way to turnLeft, right, up, down, yes, no, maybe He left me jadedStandin’ at the crossroads of crazyV2:I jumped back down that rabbit hole found a cat grinnin’ back at meHe had a notion to buy me a potion to see where things might leadBut that’s no better than what I had just bad in a different wayI ain’t Alice – and this ain’t WonderlandCH: (repeat)Bridge:It don't matter how I got hereIt’s just where I live right nowAin't nothin’ but time will ever fix this messSo if you’re trying to find me, here is my address...CH: (Repeat)Outro:I know I'll make itStandin’ at the crossroads of crazy
