fabulous songwriting, great production too

This has the three B's: Brilliance; Beauty, and Badassness.  Kudos!

Sounds like the alternate tuning as I use this time.

what a beautiful emotionally provoking piece of music and singing!

This song has nothing to do with aesthetics, being attractive, is in my opinion the least interesting thing about a person BUT feeling confident, comfortable and empowered in your body is important, to me that is true beauty. 

It would be nice to feel great about yourself every day but life can, at times, have a tendency to make you feel small and inadequate. It’s especially easy now with the addition of social media, comparing your body and life to the bodies and lives of “perfect” people online can be soul crushing. It can leave you feeling like all that you are isn’t enough. 

That’s when you need someone to lift you up. You need kind words when you’re unable to speak them to yourself, you need reassurance when you’re feeling discouraged. You need a reminder that you’re a bad ass and that you should never shrink to make others comfortable, because you’re not “too much” you’re just enough.

Green and purple, amber and blue
Fragments of sea glass
Each one so beautiful
Like the memories of me and you
ooooh
Fragments of sea glass

Out to the shore we would go
Whenever the tide was low
And search in the sand for hours on end
For treasures to bring back home

Green and purple, amber and blue
Fragments of sea glass
Each one so beautiful
Like the memories of me and you
ooooh
Fragments of sea glass

All summer long we played
Pretending we weren't afraid
Searching for peace of mind
With every broken find and treasures to bring home……
bring back home

Green and purple, amber and blue
Fragments of sea glass
Each one so beautiful
Like the memories of me and you
ooooh
Fragments of sea glass

At summer's end you left me
I pray that you rest in peace
I'll head to the shore tomorrow
To drown my sorrow in a rainbow of memories

Memories…….. memories

How long
You've been taking the blame
Replaying the sequence
Reliving the shame

One slip of the wheel
Left you shattered and stunned
Your distant voice wailing
"What have I done?"

(Dig free, dig free)... You buried yourself
(Dig free, dig free)... When they buried me
(Dig free, dig free)... Unbury yourself
(Dig free, dig free)... It's time to dig free

We were just kids
Reckless and dumb
Nobody's angry any more
There's nothing to hide from

So how long
Must this debt be paid
One life is gone
One can be saved

(Dig free, dig free)... You buried yourself
(Dig free, dig free)... When they buried me
(Dig free, dig free)... Unbury yourself
(Dig free, dig free)... It's time to dig free

Lyrics by David L. Graham
Music by Kate Stanton

Back Off, Cupid  

I should have never stopped in here tonight
I should have known you’d be here and why
You’d think I’d know better than what I do
But the blue neon and tequila’s cut you loose

Before you start it...you better stop
Cause my heart’s as hard as a rock

So, Back off Cupid
Let me go home
I’ve had too many shots
Just need to be alone
So, Back off Cupid
Love ain’t what I need tonight

That last time isn’t something I wanna repeat 
(You’ve slung your arrows)
For a minute I thought your concern was sweet
(Round left and right)
I thought for a while your romantic gestures were cool
(Half the bar here)
But I know now all your clients must be fools
(Wants to change my life)

CHORUS

So, Back off Cupid
Love ain’t what I need tonight

Back Off, Cupid (Feat. lyrics by McTown Music)

For Tony
Jeff Walker - Lyrics & Music

You chased a rainbow
Caught a falling star
Dreams just poured out 
Of that hole in your guitar

The language that you learned to speak
Taught what words could never teach
How to feel alive

When you started out
It was bluegrass to the bone
But wood and wire takes flight
In hands such as your own

Manzanita broke the mold
Then gravity gave up its hold
And opened all our eyes

Br
Mere emotions can miss the mark
We need a glimpse of holiness and grace
With music, we can find that place

In some dream an angel came
But why she couldn’t say
Took your enchanted spirit
Into the milky way

The world turned on as you flew higher
Your songs bloomed out from a thousand choirs
And rose into the sky

For Tony

Have been playing around with this song arrangement too much. Really love the chorus and hope to put vocals to this.

Push Back

Lyrics written by Wobbie Wobbit

I aimlessly wander
Hither and yonder
There's nowhere that I gotta be
I got time to squander
Mindlessly ponder
What it means to be me

I am happy
Floating along on the breeze
Such abandon
Just being random
I go wherever I please

I'm gonna sing
Gonna sing without a care
I got the feeling
I'm walking on air
Hahahahaha

No destination
Just exploration
A landscape inside and out
Pure fascination
With recreation
It's what it's all about

I am happy
Floating along on the breeze
Such abandon
Just being random
I go wherever I please

I'm gonna sing
Gonna sing without a care
I got the feeling
I'm walking on air
Hahahahaha
Hahahahahaha
Hahaha

I'm gonna sing
Gonna sing without a care
I got the feeling
I'm walking on air
Hahahahahaha

Love Song (Not That Girl)

The internet is an incredible and diverse platform, especially for creatives. The ability to interact online, to watch, listen and engage with people and their content is amazing. However, the wonderful web also has a dark side, and one aspect I've always struggled to understand is Trolling. I truly believe that everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I don’t in any way expect people to like everything they see or hear. However, what I think is unfortunate is the desire for some people to tear others down, seemingly, just because they can.‘Trolls’ is essentially a reflection on this unwanted negative attention that I, and I’m sure many others, sometimes experience online.
