===== Lyrics =====

“One of a kind”
But not cutting off my ear yet
One of a kind
Just mostly trying to make it
“Almost wild”
A fauve who’s trying to fit in
“Messy child”
The half friend of oppression
I teeter on the edges

“Force of nature”
But never quite exploding
So much pressure
From these wild ideas
“joie de vivre”
(joie de vivre and bon vivant)
But something to contend with
(something good until it’s not)
“Force to follow”
But I don’t want to want to lead just yet
(joie de vivre until I’m not)

A messy child
The half son of oppression
Almost wild
A fauve just trying to fit in

“Larger than life”
And such a giant person
That's what he said
But he meant it in a good way

The weight of the normal
Less or more a deviation
A goddess
A statue melting on the edges
I teeter on the edges

The weight of the normal
Less or more a deviation
A goddess, a statue melting on the edges
I teeter on the edges

Almost Wild (with Janine Levinson)

You're led by the nose
And I think you suppose
It's the road to the promised land
Through the highs and the lows
You know how it goes
It's too late when you understand

It's too late when you understand
They've been playing underhand

It's Too Late

Get Home

All that we are
is not near or too far
all that we do
will not make us brand new

Take the ruby from my hand
and see how it glows
a thousand yesterdays will hold on tight
until we get home

We've travelled so far
not to know who we are
Curtains will fall
making clear to us all

Take the locket from my hand
and see how it shines
a thousand yesterdays won't make it last
until the end of time

I've waited so long
just to find
If you'd just

Take the ruby from my hand
and see how it glows
a thousand yesterdays will hold on tight
until we get home

Get Home

Gosh!  Over a year since I've posted a new song!  It’s been a rough few years, but for me, the past 6 months have been particularly hard.  

This song was written ages ago, but I wanted to record it, just to have a copy for myself.  It’s a one-take piano/singing thing, with flaws but a sense of the underlying feeling.  While I was producing it, it developed a life of its own.  I had thought I’d rock it up with quite a conventional sound, but the drums and bass insisted on having their own unique flavours – ribbons of synth.  Aah well, here it is, a bit rough around the edges but at least I can feel that I am making music again...  thanks so much for listening!

Rock it…

O rock it, come rock baby roll
there’s a tide rolling green through my soul
Somewhere faint I remember the person I am
Rock it, come baby rock baby roll

Seems everyone’s dancing to light, 
there’s a song we all hear in the night
With the moon wide and high static spitting the sky
seems everyone’s dancing to light
Some red and some yellow some white
seems everyone dances to light

And the dust, it comes muddy your veins
dreary life dull and moaning in pain
Circuits broken and lost and you can’t think to cry
lost the code lost the path and can’t understand why
and the meaningless days and interminable nights
when there’s nowhere to fly and the wings lost their flight
found the feathers all crushed on the floor
trampled broken, don’t work any more

O rock it, come rock baby roll
there’s a tide rolling green through my soul
Somewhere faint I remember the person I am
Rock it, come baby rock baby roll

But somehow the cycle moves through,
the winds of change whisper and call
some beat in your brain lets the sleep patterns change
to the pulse of the blood and the beat of the brain
and awaken arise to the life-song refrain

O rock it, come rock baby roll
there’s a tide rolling green through my soul
Somewhere faint I remember the person I am
Rock it, come baby rock baby roll
