about

“There's an open window for every closed door” - You're going to be faced with the word “NO” many times in life, so try to build up an immunity to it. Instead of getting angry and lashing out at the person who rejected you, use that energy to look around and find a different way to get what you want. NO doesn't have to be the end!

lyrics

don't we just hate it
when we don't get what we want
we scream and we yell so much
and we argue and we taunt

so how do we make it
in a world that keeps us down
there must be a way to avoid
getting trapped underground

one dose of vitamin N is good for you
just the word "no" can let you see much more
turn your attention to find another way
there's an open window for every closed door

bridge
it's not an easy lesson to learn
when you're looking for bridges to burn
being denied is a reality
when you get into that mentality

one dose of vitamin N is good for you
just the word "no" can let you see much more
turn your attention to find another way
there's an open window for every closed door

sometimes we need to
improvise out on the path
if we want to get ourselves
on the greener grass

one dose of vitamin N is good for you
just the word "no" can let you see much more
turn your attention to find another way
there's an open window for every closed door

I write songs myself. I record them all myself. I play all the instruments (including real actual drums) myself. I sound like a band yet I am just one little guy. I do everything myself - the only job you have is to listen and enjoy! Isn't that easy?
