Hello, beautiful people of Soundcloud

Here's yet another interpretation of this blues gem, a blend of several versions of this song that I adore.

Death Letter Blues

Music, lyrics & vocals by Linnon

Recorded with the wonderful Terrapin Audio mics

The artwork is a painted memory of the Budva mountains I saw while writing this song

Thank you for listening!

All the poems wasted by the sea
Cannot portray the meaning 
Of an old and ragged memory 
Elegantly bleeding
Through the fabric of our time --
Something that was never mine
Begging the question,
Is it a crime?

I can feel the summer going
So long awaited and so quick to fade
Now the cold winds are returning
To embrace this place of grace
To embrace this place of grace
To erase this place

I'm waiting for the lights to change
I'm waiting for that cloud
To stretch itself all over my sky
And pour it out loud
I'm waiting for the starter kick
I'm waiting for that slide
That takes me far as we speak
That wants to be my guide
I'm waiting for the master note to take me 

As long as we go on
As long as we go on
As long as we go on
As long as we go
As long as we go on
As long as we go on
As long as we go on
As long as we go

I can tell the summer's going
So long awaited and so quick to fade
Now the cold winds are returning
To embrace this place of grace
To embrace this place of grace
To erase this place

Summer Going

Here's a rather psychedelic version of SOAD's Marmalade by me and @somamind on the guitar

Marmalade (System Of A Down)

I was inspired to write this song by The (Great :) Dark Afterglow @the-dark-afterglow and his "I don't want to be the guilty one" track here: https://soundcloud.com/the-dark-afterglow/dont-wanna-be-the-guilty-one

I don't want to be the guilty one
Scattering the ashes undercover
Choose to get lost inside someone
You choose to die one way or another

Hands full of sand
Slipping through my fingers
Night won't lend you helping hands
The bottom line is figured

And I'll be fine
Sometime, sometime
And I, oh I'll be fine
Sometime

Looking for the safe and sound - better to stop this
Magnets on the run bold and hopeless
Be the only one down with the wicked (down with the wicked)
Ladders all but slip away

Hands full of sand
Slipping through my fingers
Night won't land you helping hands
The bottom line it's figured

And I'll be fine
Sometime, sometime
And I, oh I'll be fine
Sometime

Sometime

Run! 

With our hearts out with our hearts out
As the dusk turns into dawn
Hail tomorrow with the sweetest 
Taste of expectation

Run!

With our hearts out with our hearts out
Watch the sun play in you hair
Full of hopes and nothing matters
Oh we can be anything

Yeah, telling tales

I'll be there to run
I'll be there to run
Run with my heart out

Run! 

With our hearts out with our hearts out with our hearts out

Run!

With our hearts out with our hearts out with our hearts out

Run!

I'll be there to run
I'll be there to run
Run with my heart out

Run!

This city devours me
Open your arms to her eerie glaze
And looking away at the distant days 
I can't have enough, over and over
And over again

City devours me
Long fingers holding a thorny heart
All roads I've walked couldn't make us part
And I get a little bit rolled over
And I get a little bit brave

And when the night becomes your fear, baby
When moody things are crawling at your door
Over and over and over, yeah
Send me a signal - come over, get
Over and over and over, yet again

Can't wait to dive in to lose all the faith
Your air feeds the birds in my head
They're singing ooh-la-la-la
Can't wait to hit the breaks
My truth is the wind in my hair
And I'm waving the world - so long
Waving the world - so long

My sorrows feed your seas
Your seas become my blood
I can never have enough
No I can never have

Excuse me while I get a bit rolled over, baby
Excuse me while I get a bit rolled over, lately

Can't wait to dive in to lose all the faith
Your air feeds the birds in my head
They're singing ooh-la-la-la
Can't wait to hit the breaks
My truth is the wind in my hair
And I'm waving the world - so long
Waving the world - so long

I'm waving the world - so long

This City

My friends said it didn't need percussion
