I’ve been running around in the same place 
You’ve been crying red and puffy in the face
Wide by the water walk and a talker

Under the weight of the gods 
We all live under water falls
Getting smacked in the face 
By indifferent currents
slash like night 
Like spatial might bad last call 
Nothing more it’s only living up for her

Too much time has gone by
I’ve been. A double life
Nothing there to keep you right

Ijust a yo free my mind
Let it go far outside
Walking down the thinnest line
Coalesce in my arms tonight 

I want to die in a really long time

Spinning around in it
Keeping within bounds of it
Trying not to drown in it 

That was once before and never did it again

Chances (4trak9)

Flummox

Recorded to cassette with four track. 

Complain all you want I’m onto your shit 
there’s nothing you could say I haven’t seen or heard yet￼
Before it was faces of things you only see in bad dreams
I’ve been drowning my life down in the seams

Where did you go￼￼
Out on the fairgrounds
Out on your own
Into the background

Give me too much
Give me I’m sorry 
I’ll let you know
Got you open

Every now and then I’ll go 
and get it you must do it 
once for the blood 
or you’ll need a medic

Now and then 
I have a vision 
where I don’t submit￼

A clean upheaval
A heart of evil 
And all that 
we know
Is 
Feeling feeble
I bear it below
My gland adrenal 
It roars

And I’m not gonna stop￼
It’s not that I want to

Taken too long to admit
Compiling dirt to catch a wave
You gots to believe 
There’s some luck for me yet

Lamp Shows Where

cassette from four track.  Volca sample, bass guitar guitar and vox

Like a lizard in the sunshine 
I don’t want to move an arm
hidden until I find￼ I’m tripping over 
imaginary lines￼

Insulated dreaming
A moment in the sun shine 
cost the same as in the freeze￼

See it must come from deep in there
I don’t want to move an inch
But I’m failing at my signal 

Be grateful be unwinding
Insignificant wind

Lazy Cliffs

Amidst the carnage
What did I know 
How could you let me 
go out on my own

Darkness and terror
kept at my throat
nothing was as bravery inducing
As thinking of your face

Visitor

Photo is from Mt. Shasta in California.  Song recorded to cassette in North Carolina

Tell me something real so I have a sort of baseline￼
I can replay the reels when I think that you are lying￼

Desirelessness

Cassette.  Def running out of tapes will have to get more somewhere and tape over old ones.

Cold are the foibles of friendship
Never can do what you want￼
Mixed up between your emotions￼
And everything you’ve promised￼

But there will be time for both
Love me back and I will show it

Filling in where I belong￼
Gotta take me with all along￼
I hope you don’t take it the wrong way￼
I sure would

Not doing any good 
Not doing any good
Take it wrong way
Just in case
Just in case it could be true

Grey Robe Ragged (Wrong Way)

Lying awake for the next night in a row￼
Fading to nowhere
Counting dominoes

Walking out at late night I got to compose
Some sort of reason
Some sort of code 

Don’t give up too much of your love
You gotta save some￼
For yourself

Nobody can know it better
Than u



Is it all that you wanted￼￼
Is it all that you needed￼

Save Some

Still can’t remember any of my chords but I’ve now incorporated my amplifier into my set up and I don’t know why I haven’t done it sooner￼.  To four track cassette tape.

Sit Back

Recorded to cassette with fourtrack tape recorder 8/5/23

Tripline Zip

And then she died￼
It was a terrible time and a terrible thing￼
I don’t think I cried￼
When anybody was looking￼

I think it’s so hard to get up anymore
and walk out the door￼ to do the same

When you're dead and 
dying all on the inside
Nobody I could look in the eye 
and tell them I would rather die￼

Jealous of the squirrel￼
I’m jealous of the tree
They never had to love me

Jealous of the squirrel￼
I’m jealous of the tree￼s
They never had to love me

Jealous of the Squirrel

Part of the puzzle falling away
Not unscripted not okay
Everything you wanted 
is the villain of imitate
It’s only law on shore
From a ship that’s
Sailing away

And there’s nothing there with regard to your fate
Don’t look so down on your face
It’s a miracle in the first place surviving with loss
In case of over exposure 
Hopeless of emotion 
And now they’re 
coming in waves
Shaking the gates 

Don’t call me a failure or I’ll go and feel afraid
Just dive under the waves and everything falling away

And there’s nothing you can do or say and it always been and will be this way

Whereupon the peaks and valleys of faith
Do I when dropped right down on my face

Two hostile to impart but it’s us with the art

I got no excuse anymore no reason to ignore the world

It’s been a long always willing and under laughing

The Welling Source

Cassette four track

It’s all getting too real for me
I can no longer see
The forest thru the trees
Camera exploding
I’m losing the only thing 
that made me me me me
Holding on these ￼sordid 

You don’t need to say you’re sorry
you don’t need to apologize to me￼

No Contact

Greivance

Tape cuts out because it ends

I said let’s go for a drive I got a good feeling about how everything is gonna go tonight 

I can’t explain why￼

I look up at the sky I don’t see any stars just a white blanket from people in their cars everyone is warm
all glows come from the inside￼

Why can’t I make up my mind about some simple shit I try all day and every night but get no closer to some light or higher truth some love some you
Some reason to hold
Some reason to hold on to you

Evening of String Lights

Did She Call

Something so boring about
the day after I think
My memory winds back 
and I can’t focus on anything

Trees are sprouting on land￼
The wind is rustling leaves￼
But all it means to me
All it means to me is a slow hour of

when can I see you again
So when could I see you again
No when can I see you again

When Can I See You Again

recorded to cassette

Come on tell me if that same bullshit
Don’t you know I’m better than that
Don’t you know I can see right through the walls 

No come on
We gonna need some kryptonite
And concrete
Wanna see me down the whole thing

No U Come On

Give Me What I Want

Reedths

It’s been some while

By the time sun came 
Everything had floated all away
Here at the corner of anything
God don’t take it away 

Give me your heart I will give you my armor
me no want to walk in it no more

If she would love me
I could do anything
Why don’t she love me

I wouldn’t wallow
If she don’t love me today
Will she love me tomorrow
If she don’t love me today

Why Do I Still (Miss Her)

I see myself as special and unique
I envy your shiny emotional armor

I get dizzy in my body and 
feel like I am occupying a stranger
Nothing will keep you from your path

I see myself as waiting to be rescued,
For someone to finally see value in me.

I’m like a flower that only blooms in rare rules and conditions too
And you made me bloom

Is what you want power over me
Because you can have it.  You already do 

You are so beautiful
In so many ways.  I’m not afraid of who you think
I will find.

You are an inspiring hero to me,
in whatever you do.  You leave me
In awe and don’t leave my thoughts

Emotional Armor 1

I see myself as special and unique
I envy your shiny emotional armor

I get lost and feel like I am occupying a stranger
Nothing will keep you from your path

I see myself as waiting to be rescued,
For someone to finally see value in me.

I’m like a flower that only blooms in rare conditions
And you made me bloom

Is what you want power over me
Because you can have it.  You already do 

You are so beautiful
In so many ways.  I’m not afraid of who you think
I will find.

You are an inspiring hero to me,
in whatever you do.  You leave me
In awe and don’t leave my thoughts

Emotional Armor 2

give it up am I too late
watching somebody else take my place

I want to be told i'm special
you just want to be in control of your fate

i don't think that's irrational
and i think you and I should date

As if there was any other way
this could have ever go i'm afraid
deep in
my heart I can't take it back

i could never take back what i say
or not tell you what I mean
I would never lie to protect your pride
or something in between

jsut tell me i'm special
and i'll give over my reins
just tell me i'm special
and i'll let you drive my train

Date

ive been breaking my self into pieces
and trying to put them back together again

i'm growing so tired
i got no energy to fight
listen to my fingers as they cry out in blisters


I guess you love me
But not enough 
she said i would do it if i could
but my life precludes a trip to heaven

there's so much opportunity
doesn't it call to you like it does to me?
she said not really 
not really
she said not really

Not Really

Oh you are so beautiful
And I miss your heart
What I could have had 
I’m waiting too long
Doing it all wrong
Can’t tell if I’m moving ahead or back

If I could have a glance 
Looking in your eyes
What will I find
Am I ever on your mind
Do you live up there inside
Where I devise my schemes and
I’m hatching my dreams
But I need you beside me

Don’t stay so far away
Because today is the day 
Why u gotta be that way

You are beautiful and I miss you so much
You are so beautiful and I miss you so much
I don’t know what to do
How to proceed
You are so beautiful and I need you in my life

You don’t know how wonderful and strong you are
No matter what you think I don’t care
I have this way of judging people by who they are
Not so much what they think
Not so much for anyone
Why ain’t this feeling come and gone
For what for what
Am I holding on 

You are beautiful and I miss you so much
You are so beautiful and I miss you so much
I don’t know how but some way I need you
Please come back into my life
I need you like a wife

Too much too far too way off
Do you think of me on the way home 

It’s so hard you know it’s so hard
acting like it was joke she say maybe I’ll come back 

improvised to cassette day of the dead

You Are Beautiful and I Miss You

No One Cares for Me

I can’t talk about anything except for you
I don’t know what to do about 
This hijacking of my mind

Can we go somewhere quiet
Not feel the perspiring
while the whole world is divided

Stop, take, do what you want to
In some way I couldn’t argue 
What can I say anymore

Maybe I should move on
Maybe son it’s time to move on
Maybe I should move on

Between the anger waves that come in
You can call me any time you like
I am waiting for some indication of your love
does it exist
Don’t keep it away 

Maybe it’s time to move on

Phone Call

I know so many others have been left with so much less But I can’t help feeling a little abandoned

A Little Abandoned

Camouflage

I record mostly everything to four track to cassette.  Everything is pretty unfinished, mostly stream of consciousness kind of thing.  This is like a journal.  I’m looking to collab and create.  In Asheville, North Carolina at the moment.
