Don’t Blame Me When I Fall

David Snyder

V1

I’d like to talk to the man upstairs
Yeah I would like to have a word
Few things about my life round here
Well, they seem a bit absurd
I didn’t ask to come here
No I didn’t volunteer
I didn’t ask for so many rules and worries
And so many reasons to shed a tear

Pre CH

I didn’t make nothing round here
I didn’t make nothing at all

CH

So don’t blame me for gravity, don’t blame me for tragedy
Don’t blame me for whiskey when I make it to last call
Don’t blame me for drinking it, cause God, you know I need it
And most of all, sir, if you please
Don’t blame me
Don’t blame me when I fall

V2

And don’t blame me
For missing her
Cause it hurts me every day
And you never bothered telling me
Why you took my girl away
When you chose to make me human
Did you know just what that means
Cause you made a heart that breaks too many ways
It seems

CH

So don’t blame me for gravity, don’t blame me for tragedy
Don’t blame me for whiskey when I make it to last call
Don’t blame me for drinking it, cause God, you know I need it
And most of all, sir, if you please
Don’t blame me
Don’t blame me when I fall

Don't Blame Me When I Fall

Different From Today

Empty street, rainy night
A boy beneath the corner light
He hangs his sign
And bides his time

Headlights flash the darkling sky
A roll of cash, a wanting eye
And he just smiles
He’ll be warm in a while

Paint your eyes
Angel’s falling down
Through devil skies
Angel’s falling down
Hear the sound
Of an angel falling

City push, city shove
Not much worse than where he was
Broken life, broken love

Another trick, a cheap motel
One more trip to Sodom’s hell
But it’s alright
He’ll be high tonight

See him curled up on the street
The sidewalk for his bed
People passing by his feet
And they don’t stop to wonder why
And he don’t stop to wonder why
All he wants to do is fly

Angel's Falling

Kind of a funky alternative Blues Rock. Lap steel taking the lead.

MAKE ME LOVE AGAIN

By David Snyder

V1

Looking for a reason looking for a way
looking for an antidote to yesterday
looking for a person who can see beneath my skin
looking for any place on earth that would take me in
looking for a person who won't judge me
for a few mistakes I've made along the way

CH

So I'm looking for anyone anywhere anytime
just looking for someone who I can call a friend
any smile, any touch, you know that I don't ask for much
just anything that could make me feel like me
and make me love again
and make me love again

V2

Fighting for some answers, and you know I'm not afraid
I'd like to throw it in reverse , don't like this world we've made
So I'm looking for a person with some goodness in their eyes
looking for any place on earth that sells truth instead of lies


CH

So I'm looking for anyone anywhere anytime
just looking for someone who I can call a friend
any smile, any touch, you know I don't ask for much
just anything that could make me feel like me
and make me love again


BR

Oh I'm tired of falling down
from the sorrow in my soul, every time I look around

CH

So I'm looking for anyone anywhere anytime
just looking for someone who I can call a friend
any smile, any touch, you know  I don't ask for much
just anything that could make me feel like me
and make me love again

Make Me Love Again

You know I need the rain today
Gonna cleanse my blues away
Give it slow and get it done
Hey now girl
Am I the one

I can't watch the news today
Gonna turn it off turn it away
Give it light under the sun
Hey now girl
Am I the one

We don't hold more than today
Gonna push our cares away
Give them chase and make them run
Hey now girl
Am I the one

You know I need the rain today
Gonna cleanse my blues away
Give it slow and get it done
Hey now girl
Am I the one

Give it slow and get it done
Hey now girl
Am I the one
Give it slow and get it done
Hey now girl
Am I the one

Hey Now Girl

Relax, close your eyes, and let your mind wonder.

I am playing via my MIDI controller keyboard the cellos, double basses, and the flute.  Band-in-a-Box is supplying the rest of the tracks.

I Used To Relish My Time Alone

I used to relish my time alone
When I could do just what I pleased
I used to relish my time alone
These days I hate to see her leave

I used to dream about the highway
I thought that freedom meant to move
A moving target that was my way
Love was just a chain to be removed

I used to relish my time alone
Now I crave her company
I used to relish my time alone
These days I hate to see her leave

Believed that I could do it on my own
Thought I was finding my own path
Finally discovered what freedom truly meant
On the day that I gave her my heart


What a thrill to know that someone cares
Every pleasure’s sweeter if it’s shared
No man is an island, now I know
What the poet meant almost 400 years ago

I used to relish my time alone
When I could do just what I pleased
I used to relish my time alone
These days I hate to see her leave

I used to relish my time alone
Now I crave her company
I used to relish my time alone
But now I hate to see her leave

I Used To Relish My TIme Alone

I Choose Violence Cover

Song for Love(1)

Two people. One journey.
The same road… seen through different eyes.

This track tells the quiet story of leaving everything behind while someone else is finding their way home. A slow, reflective piece built on piano and acoustic textures, it captures that fragile space between uncertainty and belonging — where love is the only constant.

From long night drives to unfamiliar horizons, The Same Road is about distance, change, and the strange way two lives can move in opposite directions while travelling side by side.

🎧 Best experienced late at night, on an empty road, with nothing but your thoughts for company.
