Dead Star Watching

This is a mellow rendition of a newer song called "Dangling Carrot".  This particular version may be entitled "Winter's Song" as well.  It was recorded live today, March 7th 2013 on a Tascam DR-07 MK II, and I've run it through Abelton Live for Compression and a little EQ to make the sound quality a little more savory.  Other than that, this is a raw, live, and one shot recorded performance expanding upon initial ideas.  Hope you enjoy!  

Lyrics:

"Winter's Song"

Darling i don't know why I can't just be happy.
Ball and chain and dangling carrot there before me.
And you the sun that's breaking thru the clouds above me.
Shine some light upon the darkness there within me.

I light the fire / take off my clothes.
Close my eyes / and let it purify me.
Shed my skin / my skin and bones.
Let my mind, be quiet for / the present moment.

Ironically we have created what destroys us.
Distressed and restless hearts, when fear and greed deploys us.
This house of glass is growing cracks along the surface.
Life is a flash, a fall of ash, then winter's song. 
Then Winter's Song.


Dangling Carrot (Winter's Song)

Unreleased track from 2008 - Co Produced by Jim Tullio

Sweet Sweet Love

This is a studio demo of an older tune that was slatted to be released on This Burning Ship of Fools in 2010. Unfortunately it didn't make the cut. This is a rough mix, unmastered, recorded at The Attic, engineered by Greg Magers.
