Less of Me

Annoying whisper

Annoying Whisper

Got It

Nightfall

Going to the festival and there's no one to see. 
May as well take these pills on the way in with me.
We're staying up all night cos we don't need no sleep.
No cash, no fags, no tent and nothing to eat.
Slowly were going insane.
Shane, we all know your name.

Going to the festival and there's plenty to drink. 
We didn't bring it, but who cares what they think.
Wander round all night cos you ain't going to sleep.
No bed. No bag. No phones and nothing to eat. 
Slowly, we're going insane.
Shane, we all know your name.

Three days will go by in an instant.
Five years will go by in a flash.
Your life be gone before you know it so watch out.
Get yourself to the festival 
Best of all?
Now.

Going to the festival and you don't have to think.
May as well enjoy it while your lives on the brink. 
Staying home alone's no fun with nothing to do. 
No job. No home. No bird and no one to screw.
Slowly, we were going insane.
Shane, we all know your name 

Three days will go by in an instant.
Five years will go by in a flash.
Your life be gone before you know it so watch out.
Get yourself to the festival 
Best of all?
Now.

Folk Festival

The Things We Leave Behind

This song started out many years ago as a novelty party spoof on blues. I would ad lib the lyrics and improvise an accompaniment on acoustic guitar which meant no two performances were ever the same. See Retrospection’s Facebook page for a sample.

Recently I decided to do a serious blues rock version and this current track has been inspired by the blues rock style of Eric Clapton and the licks by other blues artists. The lyrics still do contain just a little hint of the mischievous fun from the old party days.

Back Fence Blues (Revised)

Oh, the spark is gone.
Though the ember glows.
No option of leaving.
I didn't wanna be the one to say it.
Out loud.
The spark is gone
I can not be the only one who knows. 

Oh, I tried, and I tried to turn back to the light.
but daytime never beats out the night.
I feel it. In my bones.
I tried, and I tried, and I guess that, you know.
If anything else, I can put on a show.
I didn't wanna be the one to go.

Just a little something, 
Might ignite my flame.
Oh, A glimpse of heaven. Now.
Behind the doors of shame.
No, spark has gone.
I didn't wanna be the one to say it.
Out Loud

Oh, I tried, and I tried to turn back to the light.
but daytime never conquers the night.
I know it. And it shows.
I tried, and I tried, and I guess that, you know.
Is there anything to rekindle the glow?
I didn't wanna be the one to go.

The spark may linger.
Where the fire roared.
Oh, but it needs some fueling now.
To produce any more.
Bring back my fire, babe,
Oh, and I'll give you it all.

Oh, I try, and I try to turn back to the light.
but daytime can not compete with the night.
We knew it. And it showed.
I tried, and I tried, and I guess now you know.
There's only one thing to make sparks from the glow-ow.
I didn't wanna be the one to go.
