Me, acoustic guitar & phone app, just reflecting on the haunting lyrics here of "All Apologies" that speak to certain people among me who wish I ode them an apology while it's reverse in truth. I'll never forget when many years ago the lyric "aqua seafoam shame" popped in my head, started my car & heard that same lyric on the radio.

Colliding Clouds/ an "All Apologies" reflection

They never told me
how silence keeps time
How breath can pass like a year
if no one names it

I missed the last laugh in a joke I meant to share
I missed your glance
half a second late
and it never came back

No sirens
No final bells
Just one more moment
that didn't make a sound
as it disappeared

I kept receipts for things I never wore
but not the way you almost said stay
and changed your mind
mid-syllable

I archived victories
but lost the sigh
you gave
when the light through the window
made the dust look like snow

These aren't tragedies
They're smaller
Sharper
They slide past bone
and settle
where memory doesn't look

No statue cracked
No headline screamed
Just the way your fingers hovered
over my name
and typed nothing

The way a cup grew cold
while I stared
at a thought
that never finished forming

We measure hours
We weigh years
But no one counts the almosts
the pauses
the almost-yes
the nearly-held breath

They vanish
quiet as pollen on wind
A thousand truths
that never bothered
to become facts

I used to think loss required presence
Now I know
you can lose
what never even arrived

Almosts

This is the (painstakingly) remixed and (somewhat less painstakingly) remastered version of Last Train Out, from the 4 Good Measure Album

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
wanted one thing
super powers
fire ice or shapeshift
become perfection incarnation
have i chased my own dreams into darkness
i got power
but im chasing the screams into darkness
became destruction incarnation
exchanged freedom for power
bestowed a gift a curse
cuz i chased my own screams into darkness
gave up something
my freedom

[Chorus]
creeping shadow
made a pact
and signed the contract
paid the tax
for eldritch blast
creeping shadow
made a pact for fell magic uh uh uh
main attack
the eldritch blast


[Verse 2]
acquisition of my power
flight and speed and regeneration
become perfection incarnation
have i chased my own dream into darkness
i got power
but im chasing the screams into darkness
became destruction incarnation
exchanged freedom for power
cant destroy this curse
cuz ive chased my own screams into darkness
gave up something
my freedom

[Chorus]
creeping shadow
made a pact
and signed the contract
paid the tax
for eldritch blast
creeping shadow
made a pact
and signed the contract
paid the tax
for eldritch blast
creeping shadow
made a pact for fell magic uh uh uh
main attack
the eldritch blast

Broken Heart In June

A remixed and longer version of Mosquito Bite

Oh I get so many problems
And they cut me up inside
It don’t matter what I do
They get on up and ride my mind
Consume my time
There is no end
I see no sign
I gotta fix them
I gotta fix these problems
I gotta fix them
and clear my mind

One more mosquito bite
A problem for me to fight
One more mosquito bite
That soon, soon, soon will be gone
will be gone
it will be gone

It seems there’s no solution
I cannot sleep at night
next day is all confusion
and so I feel like I’m unreal
Like I’m not there
I fall asleep
inside my chair
I’m in a hole now
No way to go now
I wanna get out
And clear my mind

A problem aired is a problem shared
A problem aired is a problem shared
Mosquito
Mosquito
Mosquito bite
One more mosquito bite
A problem for me to fight

One more mosquito bite
A problem for me to fight
One more mosquito bite
That soon, soon, soon will be gone
will be gone
it will be gone
