Never really said too much
Afraid it wouldn’t be enough
Just try to keep my spirits up
When there’s no point in grieving
Doesn’t matter anyway
Words could never make me stay
Words will never take my place
When you know I’m leaving
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone
You know we’ve been down that road
What seems a thousand times before
My back to a closing door and my eyes to the seasons
That roll out underneath my heels
And you don’t know how bad it feels
To leave the only one that I have ever believed in
Sometimes it feels like we’ve run out of luck
When the signal keeps on breaking up
When the wires cross in my brain
You’ll start my heart again
When I come along

The winner of the seventh season of Fox's American Idol competition,
David Cook
is a rock-oriented vocalist with a bent toward a commercial post-grunge sound. Born in Houston, TX in 1982,
Cook
grew up in Blue Springs, MO and first began singing in various elementary school concerts. During high school,
Cook
participated in the drama program and appeared in many musical productions. In his junior year of high school,
Cook
formed the band
Axium
along with a classmate and performed
with the band throughout his time at college, even releasing two independently produced albums that garnered some national recognition. Although he attended the University of Central Missouri on a theater scholarship, after two years he switched degree programs to graphic design. After graduating college in 2006,
Cook
parted ways
Axium
and moved to Tulsa, OK to pursue his musical interests. While there, he worked as a bartender and performed with the band
the Midwest Kings
.
In 2006,
Cook
released an independently produced solo album,
Analog Heart
, before auditioning for the 2008 season of the Fox vocal competition American Idol. Not surprisingly,
Analog Heart
began to sell online during
Cook
's time on American Idol and was pulled off Amazon.com not long after being listed as the site's number one seller. Initially,
Cook
came to the Idol auditions to support his younger brother Andrew, who did not make the cut. However, after getting encouragement from his brother,
Cook
sang
Bon Jovi
's
"Livin' on a Prayer"
for the judges and was accepted into the Hollywood round of competition. A guitar player since age 12,
Cook
took advantage of the show's new rule change allowing vocalists to play instruments, and for many of his subsequent performances accompanied himself on guitar. Although he did not receive much attention on American Idol at first, his third week's performance of
Lionel Ritchie
's
"Hello"
drew raves from the judges, who praised him for taking an R&B song and turning it into a post-grunge power ballad. It was a formula that
Cook
would repeat with much success a few weeks later with a rock arrangement of
Michael Jackson
's
"Billie Jean"
borrowed directly from a recording by former
Soundgarden
vocalist
Chris Cornell
. Also bringing some extra attention to
Cook
was the revelation that his older brother was battling cancer. Sensationally, during the competition
Cook
was taken to the hospital for treatment for high blood pressure and heart palpitations, purportedly caused by stress over his brother's situation. However, he quickly returned to the show and dismissed the event as a minor precaution. Often referred two as the "Battle of the Davids," the 2008 finale of American Idol pitted
Cook
against 17-year-old wunderkind
David Archuleta
, who many critics and fans predicted would beat the elder
Cook
. However, on May 21, 2008
Cook
ultimately received 56-percent of the vote to win. His version of the winning Idol single
"Time of My Life'"
was released on iTunes the following day. His full-length major-label debut is expected to drop in late 2008. ~ Matt Collar, All Music Guide
