One of the most beautiful little songs... "Dear shipwrecked I too am waiting to be saved, had my prayers and praises all sent back, heaven is full of people who belong." Sung in Damien's world-weary voice is one of the most moving passages.

Love this song, so here's a story. Back in the day of MySpace, this song appeared on Damien's page for about a week or two. I listened to it many times, then it disappeared and I presumed it would be on the next album, but no, albums came and went. I searched DJ fan pages, live recording lists, and even once sent a question to Dj via a message board fan question event thingy. 'What ever happened to that song of yours, Lincoln, the one that starts, Lincoln, here's a song for you...?' To which the answer came (along the lines of), 'I've never recorded a song called Lincoln or those lyrics...' I thought I had imagined it, but then many years later, up it pops and it's still brilliant.

amazing artist and song and again and again the proof. Likes or fame has absolutely nothing to do with real talent ... its only karma ... I think this times are ready now to let go of this typical old paradime of ego which is melting in "who is the number one" ... the are so many so many great amazing souls here on planet.

Listening to this and "Where You Want Me to Be" are priceless by themselves.

Lincoln here’s a song for you
I’ve been twisting in the vapors and the fumes
There is nothing that I can say to you now
That you have not already heard
Lincoln you cheated me again
From the highways I had visions and the shakes
There’s is no one who can take me from this land
More than once I was captured in your lens
Fall back let the sunshine blind your eyes
Hear the voices of your lovers be your guide
There are many windows open in the house
They are letting out our secrets with the heat
There is nothing to hide
There is nothing to hide
There is nothing nothing left to hide
Dear shipwrecked I too am waiting to be saved
I had my prayers and praises all sent back
Heaven is full of people who belong
Heaven is full of people who belong
There is nothing to hide
There is nothing to hide
There is nothing nothing left to hide
