AGH! (feat. A.Leech)

A new Coldplay album, "Ghost Stories", recently came out so I decided to cover a song on it. This isn't exactly like the Coldplay version, but I still enjoy it. All I used was my guitar, my loop pedal, and my phone to record it. Enjoy :)


(I do not own this song in any way)

Always In My Head (Coldplay Cover)

Just messing around with a cool little chord progression. 

Idea Waltz

Live recording of a chill vibe. Here are some vibe and tribe.  Macdunalds and Paper cilps.  Deal wit it.

Pass The Vibes (cover)

Week 3! Shout out to my brother Josh for the rad keyboard things in this one. 

Lyrics: 

It can't be captured in a picture 
It can't be captured in plural 
The carmine brown and mustard paper whiskers 
The annual year end mural 
I'm so used to this routine 
You'll shady bounce away from me 
You'll see
Gather in different piles on the green
Slip away into the winter months
Why can't I trust I'll be ok
It's not as shady as it was during the fall

I think I'm up to late 
Stuck in this sorry state
I think I'm seeing things I can't fall asleep 
Visions of me and you
Back to our first debut 
My minds eye collapses as it creeps
 
I'm monotheistic 
and very artistic 
and you will take your pick and thats ok
Lets Mano e mano 
Bet your bottom dollar 
that you are the collar that holds me down
All of this pressure 
The world is against me
Get with this or that or whatever you fancy 
Gravity 
Is pulling me down
But I mean 
What else would it do 
Are ya feeling me 
Its not all that bad
Hello me
Its been awhile 

Its been too long in fact
Checking who's got my back
Making opportunities not obstacles 
Visions of me and you
Back to our first debut
My minds eye collapses as it creeps 

Wishing for something new
I need a new debut 
Rake up the leaves and start again

Mr. Monotheistic and the Search for Common Good (Original Song)

WEEK 6!

Right around 11
I'll be settling down
I've got a lot of things and luggage to unpack right now 
But some how 
I doubt 
I'll get any sleep when I'm done

I'm not an actor 
At least not a good one
Not a great one 
Not a bad one
But one that's passable 
But I cant possibly get past you 
You can catch me 
I don't have to say a word

I can't put up a fight 
With what I can't put a finger on
I can frame this phrase from the bottom up 
Moon to sun, son to father, farther up
Up and down with a downers touch 
With a rhythm done did em sit em down
Bow bow bow, clap
(Oh snap)
We're a touchy subject she says 
Forget it or regret it I guess
What a beautiful mess 
What a beautiful mess she is 
Just like any other I guess 
What a beautiful mess 

What are you doing 
Who are you talking to 
Where are you going 
What are you listening to 

Make me rowdy 
I can still get rowdy 
Tell tale signs of the worst coming out of me 
We had our best times in the dark

It's never over
What a beautiful mess
It's never over to me
What a beautiful mess 
It's never over 
What a beautiful mess
Can you hear me 

Can you hear me 

Beautiful Mess (Original Song)

Week 9!

I always appreciate it more 
When I never see it coming 
Surprise me with your laughter 
I didn't think that'd be funny 
So I'll keep cracking jokes 
Until you crack a smile
I'm won't try to make this sad
But it's become part of my style 

Is this what I need
Is this what I need
Are you what I need 
Am I what you need

I need a symbol 
I need a sign 
I need a symbol 
(Crash) not that kind 

So watch me imitate 
The immature, what's the matter 
Between business and some fun
I'd always take the ladder 
There's some clatter in my brain 
And it won't go away 
Say that it will turn out fine 
And make your problems mine
And give you all my time 
Give you all my time

I need a symbol 
I need a sign 
I need a symbol 
(Crash) not that kind

Isn't that convenient
Where I am compared to you
I'm on a gym floor in a sleeping bag and I don't know what to do
Should I text you
Should I not
Should I text you or wait to see if you forgot

I need a symbol I need a sign

Sleeping Bag (Original Song)

Bang Bang 
The gun doesn't work 
Please no applause 
That's not how this works 
I can't even rhyme 
Not even after intermission 

Sharks, Jets 
PRs 
Derogatory terms 
"Move back where you're wanted"
But I only feel "wanted" right here

Drawing a map
Pre-show dancing
Tracing faces 
Couples romancing 
And a certain little couple 
Stationed at the bottom of the stairs 

And here I am 
Bracing for my dose of the feels 
In the place I've spent my spring the last 4 years 
But I'm numb 
I'm sure it'll hit me later I least expect the pain to sink in

Fake fights 
Stage fright
Green room 
Saaa dude 
Nautilus 
Makes me miss it too 

Tonight, tonight 
Tonight is the night 
I'm gonna get my kix tonight
Tonight

Knock knock 
Who's there
It's the chicken 
Ha ha 
Talking dog 
Whatever...
Good bye 
West side 
I think we win
But just by a nose 
Te Adoro

Te Adoro

Bang! (Original Song)

Week 26

I 
Won't speak 
My mind 
Anymore 
Cus I 
Realize 
What I say 
Isn't worth it 
And if you can miss a week 
And not miss me 
That speaks volumes to me 
Cus how would I 
Know otherwise?
If you don't open up to me 
I'll just make lies 
In my head 
That make more sense 
Than what you told me
Goodbye 
Good luck
Get high
Stay drunk 
Say hi 
To Vic 
For me 

The Sound of a Broken Accordion (Original Song)

How about this
I've got a proposal
I know this isn't normal
But I've acting differently these past few weeks
I know I know
But I've got no where to go
I know I know
I've got nothing here to lose
To lose to lose
But I just can't let it go
I know I know
You've got nothing to lose too

Baby we can cross that bridge
When we get to it
Maybe Spend some time with me
Til you're sick of it
Baby we can cross that bridge
When we get to it
But we can take it slow
We can take it slow
Nobody has to know
No one has to know

Take all the time
That you might need
But baby just save some time for me
We've gotta leave
We've gotta go
Baby there's one last thing that you should know

<soli>

Baby we can cross that bridge
When we get to it
Maybe Spend some time with me
Til you're sick of it
Baby we can cross that bridge
When we get to it
But we can take it slow
No one has to know
There's something you should know
Although you probably already know

Oh wait
What's this
New thing
New twist
Never mind
Change of plans
Once again
New information just keeps on coming in
Now I'm done
But now I'm just used to it


Take It Slow (Original Song)

https://michaelpoggioli.bandcamp.com/album/its-real-dark-in-pittsburgh-single
Foggy on the way in 
Foggy in the middle 
Foggy on the way out 
Funny just a little 

How little I know 
About these people 
But the cup count is going up and 
it'll 
Hit me when I least expect it 
Making fun of them saying "Pitt is Lit" 
Let's sit on beds and share more stories 
Tell me more about "Two Pump Tony" 
While Vab is getting dank 
And I'm getting lost 

(Not a stoner but I love my dank) 

I'm fine 
I'm alright 
It got real dark back in Pittsburg 
And I might have lost my way 
But I'm coming home 
Where she's so alone 
But I'll find the gap in time I saved for you 
Crawl back inch by inch to something new 

Where's the lighter 
We're 2 hours early 
Stop by the "O" and 
Hit me with a peach tea 
Questioning our safety 
Crossing sketchy side streets 
Get back on the bus 
We're lost in Philly 
12 hours out 
It felt like 60 
Should've been 6 
She said she missed me 
And I don't know if that means anything 
If she wants it to be anything 

Watch over our shoulders 
I think we're being followed 
We put our feet in 
Took them out and turned ourselves around that's why we're "Explorers" 
(Explorer? I barely know her...8) ) 

I'm fine 
I'm alright 
It got real dark back in Pittsburg 
And I might have lost my way 
But I'm coming home 
Where she's so alone 
But I'll find the gap in time I saved for you 
Crawl back inch by inch to somewhere new 

I knew he knew my head was feeling lighter 
But unlike the others I don't act like a fighter 
I just lose control 
Over my mouth 
And I get real close 
To a twist and shout 
And thoughts are incoherent 
She whispered my name 
I can almost hear it 
If I think about it hard 
I think about her voice 
And I'm caught 
off guard 
And I feel like that's a start 

I don't think I remember it 
I don't think I remember it 
And I feel like that's a start

It's Real Dark In Pittsburgh - Single

I'm putting together an album called "RE-RUNS", which consists of rerecorded and reimagined songs I've written and this is the first one. Enjoy :)

***

I was cornered by a resolution 
I knew I had to make 
A well-rehearsed smile 
Pretend to listen to an update 

Of how she is 
Or where they are 
How serious 
This is getting hard 
To maintain 
To keep a straight face 
Keep my composure out of the equation 

Listening to heart songs on repeat 
I'll sing along 
I'll sing til I'm sick of it but let's be honest 
If love is a sickness then I'm glad I caught it 

Cause I miss the way 
That you used to look at me 
I relive so many moments in my head 
But the images are getting fuzzy 

I think of the guy 
That I out grew 
And all of the stuff that he never knew 
If I could go back 
To those days 
And fix it up 
I would 

Listening to heart songs on repeat 
I'll sing along 

I remember it so clearly 
It was the 4th of July 
And we got lost 
Like we usually do and lie 
And then I said 
I was exhausted 
And maybe we could gets some rest 
And she said I'll let you do anything 
I'll let you do anything but 
(let's make a mess) 

Listening to heart songs on repeat 
I'll sing along 
I'll sing til I'm sick of it but let's be honest 
If love is a sickness then I'm glad I caught it

Strangers (Original Song)

The third song that I've ever written. Probably my favorite slow song. I know I've said that about other ones. But I mean it this time. This was written during a retreat and I pumped out the first recording of it in less than an hour as soon as I got home. 

*** 

Lights flash 
Get lost in the motions 
Highways 
Help me focus on emotions 
The long walk from her car to my house 
It's all connected 

Long drives 
Straight lines 
My big mind and You 
Wet eyes 
Crooked lies 
All addressed to You 

Help me help me 
Shed some light on this 
Help me help me 
Forget about this 
Cus I've got too much time to think about 
All these silly rhythms to sing about 
But every night I still wait for You 
To come and show me what You want me to do 

And thinks its about time I got honest 
I cant see what you mean when you speak in codes 
But every time I think I get it right 
I fall asleep in a pile of my clothes 

And every time I close my eyes I see nothing 
(I know you're there) 

Help me help me 
Shed some light on this 
Help me help me 
Forget about this 
Cus I've got too much time to think about 
All these silly rhythms to sing about 
But every night I still wait for You 
To come and show me what You want me to do 

(So show me)

Big Mind (Original Song)

Lyrics:

Eh
Boom

Sean wants to follow me back

Boom

Procrastination

AVAILABLE ON ALL STREAMING SERVICES 
NEW ALBUM: GOODEST BOYS AND GIRLS 
COMING SOON 2020

Lyrics:

Early morning cup of coffee
Late glass of wine
I try to find patience
In these trying times
So I sit down with a horoscope
And tarot cards?
But uh...

Head empty
No thoughts
And that’s alright
Cut my own loses
And call it a night
Super rad super rad
Of you to come on through to me

Took a picture of your future
Preparing your mind
For a linear line
Oh how unfortunate
This mess is gonna be
And how it’s feel
So quiet your machines
And while the negative’s developing
There’s something else developing
Under different rooms and dinner tables
So then you get thinking
The hell you think you bringing
While snakes tighten around your ankles

Head empty
No thoughts
And that’s alright
Cut all my loses
And call it a night
Super rad super rad
Of you to come on through to me

Oh how unfortunate
This mess is gonna be
And how it’s gonna feel
So quiet your machines
And while the negative’s developing
There’s something else developing
Under different rooms and dinner tables
So then you get thinking
The hell you think you bringing
While snakes tighten around your ankles

Head empty
No thoughts
But that’s alright
Cut all my loses
And call it a night
Super rad super rad
Of you to come on through to me

The hell you think you’re bringing?
The hell you think you’re bringing?
The hell you think you’re bringing?

Super Rad (Head Empty, No Thoughts)

Goodest Boys and Girls 2020

Little words
Little lies
Watching the thoughts all pause
In the time
You and I
Could have spent on missed calls
But it’s my motive
To fill the space
With something else
Is there something

Anything else you wanted to mention
Before I walk across that stage?
(Unreal)
Sit back
check back
In a year
Maybe two
If only there were more ways to say

I feel just like a tourist
As bright lights leave the cameras
Candids take two tries
Candids take two tries

I know it’s looking dark
But your eyes will adjust
I can be right back
I can be right back

Stop me when you think you need a walk
We can’t fight if we learn to never talk
Stop me when you think you need a walk
We can’t fight if we learn to never talk

What’s the point
What’s the point right now
Catch your breath
catch your breath sit down
I don’t I don’t
I don’t know
Can we figure it out

We can’t fight if we learn to never talk
We can’t learn
We can’t learn

Rhodopsin

Goodest Boys and Girls 2020

After cracking the spine 
Of our new lives 
Stretching it out
I see the markings change in size 
But the ink is white 
So I squint my eyes 
It’s hard to see 
Harder to know 
Hardest to write
But I don’t mind 
I’ll never mind 
Nevermind

I’m pacing the floor 
I’m checking my phone 
I’m trying to prove to myself 
I can be happy alone 
But I’m not alone 
I’m anything but 
No matter what 
I know Ill find my way back home 
And I don’t mind 
I never mind 
Never mind 

I feel such strong emotions when you’re not around 
So when Im not in motion I think I hea Oop r your sounds 
Like whispers in my ears
Your sweet voice so sincere 
You got me hearing things 
But I think I’ll be alright 
Because the sounds you make remind me I’m alive 

I feel such strong emotions when you’re not around 
So when Im not in motion I think I hear your sounds 
Like whispers in my ears
Your sweet voice so sincere 
You got me hearing things 
But I think I’ll be alright 
Because the sounds you make remind me I’m alive

Hearing Things

Funky lil jawn I've been working on recently. Experimenting with using less instruments than what I'm used to using on songs. Super happy with how its coming so far! Let me know what you think!

Late

"I like your new plants. I like your new get up"

Nope

Can you describe me by my nails? By my knuckles? 
Because you know me well. 
But maybe its the past tense 
You knew me well.
