Pop Quiz- Rough Mix 1

when there is nothing where something used to be,
like an empty playground filled with broken swings,
when the clouds roll in and hide all the stars at night.

when there’s nothing where something used to be,
like my father who can’t remember me,
he’s like the Aral Sea,
that’s slowly shrunk and gently blown away.

Chorus:
these voids and spaces that crater my mind
will slowly erode and fill up over…
Time, my rusted shovel 

when there is something where nothing used to be,
when ashes become home for seeds,
like daffodils that burst up through the Earth in early March.

Chorus:
these voids and spaces that crater my mind
will slowly erode and fill up over…
Time, my rusted shovel 
covering my troubles,
it’s all an endless struggle

Time, my rusted shovel

up there, in the absence of light
in a place hard to figure,
a grain of sand, blacker than night
rips through the fabric of space.

in between the lightness of stars,
is a cold hard to figure,
and a speck of rock falls through the night,
silent in the vacuum of space.

Chorus:
i need to feel,
the massive tug of burning spheres,
to bring me close
and melt away the things I fear,
if I miss this well I’ll float on and on

alone on a canvas of stars,
on a course hard to figure,
thrown away by collisions I’ve lost,
a molecule submersed in the ink.

Chorus:
i need to feel,
the massive tug of burning spheres,
to bring me close
and melt away the things I fear,
if I miss this well I’ll float on and on

I need to be,
brought into the swing of things,
to break my line an curve me into better dreams,
these lonely nights,
will they ever end?

on a cool spring-like night,
a streak lit the heavens.

Meteorites

The Meteorite Final Mix

A song I wrote in 2005. Enjoy ancient Drew wisdom:)

By My Genes 2005

One of the first songs I wrote my wife.
Imagine a 50's sock hop with dead heads smoking joints underneath the bleachers.

Hold You in My Arms WIP1

i just don't think i'll get over you by Colin Hay

i hear them laughing
i can feel them smiling
20 little flames made up our sun
20 little flames made up our sun

and as they shined upon the world
there dwelt in the shadows
a young man that would,

extinguish them.

how does a man become this evil?
who was watching him grow?
why do we lose so much 
when we move too slow?

and our world blackened out
and we start to scream
it just keeps occurring
again and again and again and again and again

i can hear them

20 stars shining bright,
throughout the night
silently watching our actions...

what will you do?

there are no replacements
