Bryan Masters' crooked heart was educated along the two-lane blacktops and dirt roads of Kansas, and his music speaks of small towns, dreams lost and found, and the torments of real love. Literate, lyrical, rockin' Americana for folks who think, hurt, laugh and live through busted hearts.

Lyrics
My Turn By Bryan Masters, © 2002 Library Mary All spectacles and brown shoes Feels plain as a prairie And cold as a dart She just got the brushoff Simple as an ice cube From the ice-hearted Kruschev Who's been fondling her heart She pours her medicinal cheap wine And oh, it's not the first time (She says) it feels like it's my turn Yes, it feels like it's my turn With the appeal of a rugburn And the soul of an earthworm It's my turn to break somebody's heart Crystal is a pistol With a heart like a turnstile Sits home with a fistful Of Vicodin and beer Romantically retarded She stares out the front door Waiting for her blackhearted Casanova to appear A blue girl dressed in scarlet Some Lothario's underpaid harlot It's a cycle as vicious As dogs in a junkyard Broken as dishes Our kind hearts grow hard Brandishing sabers So that we never get scarred Loving our neighbors 'Til they're dead in the courtyard Faith remains faithful To a lover that she's never met But she knows that he loves her By the life he doesn't live And she's quietly grateful That 'not now' and 'not yet' Are the only transgressions That she needs to forgive And oh, it gets mighty lonely Waiting for her one and only (She says) it feels like it's my turn Yes it feels like it's my turn Not overly concerned About life in the short term The penalty for a false start Is that someone's gonna break somebody's heart
