about

As a person that has spent a fair amount of time in lonely desert motels, I really thought that all the lonely desert motels of the American west (that usually feel like they are located right between heaven and hell) deserved their own song. After you listen to the complete lyrics on the Zenwarren Bandcamp page I'll let be the judge of how much of the story is fact and how much fantasy. Michael Zenwarren

lyrics

When we pulled into that night we both knew we were going to do things that we were never going to tell to see if they'd take us to heaven or straight to hell

Oh oh in a lonely* desert motel conveniently located right between heaven and hell

Oh listen to the voices in the next room scream and yell
Oh listen to the voices in the next room scream and yell

Continued...

*Hey it's definitely a "lonely" desert motel. Don't know how I spaced the "lonely" in the demo version but I promise I won't space it in the release version - MZ

about

Michael Zenwarren Colorado

It all started with writing a few songs. Saying a few things in what I thought was an elegant and artful way. Soon it became obsession. Then I thought in this day and age obsession is meant to be shared with the world because the world is obsessed with obsession. Well here are ten brand new pre-production albums - for all of us to start obsessing over until the obsession is total. Thanks - MZ ... more
