Down in the valley where the sun don’t shine 
There was a girl she was divine 
She ventured in through the pines 
They found her body in the dark green vines 

Down in the valley where the sun don’t shine 
The girl felt chills down her spine
A vicious man he crossed the line  
And left her body in the dark green vines 
 
Down in the valley where the sun don’t shine 
There lived a man who seemed benign 
He lived alone, drinking his wine 
His consumption it was borderline 

Down in the valley where the sun don’t shine 
He had a cottage in the alpine 
It was surrounded by dark green vines 
The perfect place to hide the crime

unspoken
You're different
You don't listen to me
You know, I can't handle
Silence as well as you do
Because you don't tell me everything
I ask you again, and you say nothing
Because you don't tell me everything
I ask you again, and you say nothing
But I see something in your face
And I don't know what it is
But I see something in your face
And I don't know what it is

You're different
You don't listen to me
You know, I can't handle
Silence as well as you do
I don't know what it is
And it drives me crazy
And I don't believe you
That there's nothing there
I wonder if you're afraid
Or is there someone else?
Do you notice how little you laugh?
Please! Please!
Tell me and don't pretend that there's nothing there
Please! Please!
Tell me and don't pretend that there's nothing there
But I see something in your face
And I don't know what it is
But I see something in your face
And I don't know what it is

Because you don't tell me everything
I ask you again, and you say nothing
Because you don't tell me everything
I ask you again, and you say nothing
Because you don't tell me everything
I ask you again, and you say nothing
Because you don't tell me everything
I ask you again, and you say nothing
Because you don't tell me everything
I ask you again, and you say nothing
Because you don't tell me everything
I ask you again, and you say nothing

Unspoken

This song I wrote in 2015 and Charlie sang it beautifully. It's a sad tale of a young couple that fall in love and shortly afterwards she becomes pregnant and  they separate. She doesn't know how to tell her ex and tries to kill herself. The man doesn't know she's with child and thinks she has abandoned him for someone else. The video tells the story pretty much straight forwardly, and it's very sad. But at the very end she call him and tells him before she does something crazy and then I leave it up to the viewer to decide what happens next! In my mind, they get back together, have a beautiful healthy baby and live happiliy ever after! I always like the corny happy endings!  I also added a Spanish guitar in the lead portion for some emotional flavor. Please forgive my backing vocals towards the end, they were weak and not my best effort!  Watch the video on YouTube for the visual story:

Enjoy & Cheers!

“WITHOUT HER LOVE”

I NEVER THOUGHT SHE’D ABANDON ME,     
NEVER REALIZED,     
ALWAYS BELIEVED HER LOVE WAS TRUE,       
UNTIL SHE SAID GOODBYE,
                   
PERHAPS IT WAS THE LITTLE THINGS?     
THE ONES LEFT UNSAID,     
HER LOVELESS LOOKS AND THOUGHTLESS WORDS,      
NOW ECHO IN MY HEAD,
     
SHE NEVER TOLD ME, SHE MADE A FOOL OF ME,          
SHE NEVER TOLD ME, I WAS MUCH TOO BLIND TO SEE,         
NOW LONELY I WILL BE, NOW LONELY I WILL BE,            
NOW LONELY I WILL BE WITHOUT HER LOVE, 
          
[LEAD]
   
MAYBE I HAVE MYSELF TO BLAME,     
FOR MISSING ALL THE SIGNS,     
THE SUBTLE CLUES SHE LEFT FOR ME,            
WEIGH HEAVY ON MY MIND,
             
SHE NEVER TOLD ME, SHE MADE A FOOL OF ME,          
SHE NEVER TOLD ME, I WAS MUCH TOO BLIND TO SEE,         
NOW LONELY I WILL BE, NOW LONELY I WILL BE,            
NOW LONELY I WILL BE WITHOUT HER LOVE,

"WITHOUT HER LOVE"

Written and Recorded by Nate Jessee at Trash Island Studios.
Remastered on 3/23/2024

I can't remember a time when death wasn't a friend of mine.
I stood in the cold, dark, and rain tryin' to make sense out of
everything in my brain.
But nothing can wash these feelings away, if the dead can't
feel our pain, is that OK?

On the other side, it's a savage afterlife
They'll take everything, including your mind
But I don't want to spend my afterlife with you
I got things to do.

Once is never enough for you, the greed, the need, I hate it, it's true
I feel the pull of you from the other side
it invades my brain and I cannot hide.
When you're six feet down it's hard to have a life and I know you're gonna take mine
