Eagle And Serpent

I'm walking  down to McDonalds
And that's all I'm going to do today
I guess that I'm not moving on
From our moving on
The poet he dies of a thousand paper cuts every day
So I'll say
It's been a pleasure to be with you
In this space and time
And when your telephone it doesn't ring
And when your doorbell it doesn't chime
It's me

I went to the hypnotist
To try to make some kind of sense of this
He snaps his fingers
He goes 1,2,3
I let that hippy girl read my tea leaves
I don't want to, but I have to believe
And when your telephone doesn't chime
And when you feel that California sunshine
It's me

This poet, he see a little less beauty every day
I walk past the coffee shop
Past the Stop N' Shop
Past the parking lot
With that Polish Bar, where we used to go
When your telephone it doesn't ring
And when you're craving Gin & Grenadine 
It's me

It's been a pleasure 
To have someone like you in my life
And when your telephone it doesn't ring
And when you find out who was to blame for everything
It's me

When Your Phone Doesn't Ring (It's Me)

Something to relax to or maybe cook to, your choice. Enjoy my friends.

REUNION (with Wane of Summer)

I am currently remixing all the tracks of the 'The Dwelling' album I made in 2017/2018, because of new insights in mastering and mixing and new equipment and tools to aid in that. 

This is 'Atticboy'. The original version dates from 2008 I believe, and I recorded this version in 2017, and remixed it today.

Other entries in this remix spree are Long Shot and Until the Light - the latter only being available on BandCamp (why though? https://alicedeeper.bandcamp.com/track/until-the-light-2021-remix ?)

In the time of my former band UMF, this was a live favorite - usually played at the start of the second set to jumpstart the audience after the break.


lyrics:

yeah I thought that I got away from all the rules of a sorry game
now I'm locked to another chain - spinning down seems the only way
I won't do what the bugger say - feeding life on a hungry plate
shorting out for a better way - I got a taste for the bitter rain!

I got pain, in my brain;
a screw loose, this is not my day!
I got it hanging bad again.
and everytime, is all the same,
I wanna get out but I don't know where to stay,
if everytime I refuse to play,
slumping down into the grey,
seeking comfort is not the way.

Find you a lovin' or find you a hell,
the best way of discovering is s*** I can't tell!

A truce, that's for you.
Too loose, that's for you.
Can't choose, that's for you.
To lose, that's for you.
No way back to you,
run away far from you.
Too late - answer you!
no regret,
all of you.

Have a listen to my album "Curiosities Of Outsider Art" (Sept 2025). Quirky and interesting tunes.
Thank you for listening!

I try to write with rich lyrical details and self-deprecating humor about the human condition. Plus, that unique Shade Structure sound!  It sounds best with headphones. Thanks for any comments, reposts or likes.
