Dream of Jaco

Motelli

Tyhjä tie
Vain metsä musta
Puiden kuiske
Tuulen supatusta
Kuljen pihaan vanhan motellin
Se nukkuu
Kuin kuolleet ikään
Täällä koskaan ei liiku mikään
Entiseen päästä tahtoisin

Mä kerran tanssin täällä kepein askelein
Nauru helkkyi musiikki soi
Valot loisti kasvoillein
Kun silmät suljen
Tuon loiston taas mä nään
Kuin taikapöly herättää
Vanhan motellin
Taas laulu elämään

Kautta Paratiisin
Käyn satumaahan
Viimeisen tanssin
Kai sulta saanhan
Yö odottaa Hämärän Prinsessaa
Omista mut
Ja syliis sulje
Hetki kanssain muistoissa kulje
Tän laulun tahdon sulle omistaa

Mä kerran tanssin täällä kepein askelein
Nauru helkkyi musiikki soi
Valot loisti kasvoillein
Kun silmät suljen
Tuon loiston taas mä nään
Kuin taikapöly herättää
Vanhan motellin
Taas laulu elämään

(solo)

Mä kerran tanssin täällä kepein askelein
Nauru helkkyi musiikki soi
Valot loisti kasvoillein
Kun silmät suljen
Tuon loiston taas mä nään
Kuin taikapöly herättää
Vanhan motellin
Taas laulu elämään

Leijaillaan
Purppurasumuun
Vaivutaan ukkosenkumuun
Motellissa kun jälleen kerran tavataan

A reason to believe that it's alright

Sometimes I lose my mind
When I’m stuck in my own little world 
Like I’ve had enough of life 
I haven’t given you half my world 

Dreams of you that keep on calling 
A reason to find out just why
A reason to try
You keep on calling 
Like I’ve got nothing to hide 
My eyes on your side 

Dreams of you that keep on calling 
A reason to believe that it’s alright 
How long can I see it right?

A reason to believe that it's alright

Self Driving

Edmund's mother would drive sometimes for days. Never going anywhere, just somewhere. Somewhere that wasn't there. Another burned out sign to a cheap motel; deep in the humid swamps of the bitter south. A time to stop and rest for a day, maybe two. This life inside her was wanting to see the world.
 Flames and retribution and shame, an archaic remnant to what wanted her to speak no more. Edmund was to be born that day in the swamps.  That day when the cicadas roared like a chorus through sweat and fire. The traveler was born at 3:33 pm

The Fold

The Fold./Ballad of a Traveler part 2

Snarky view of higher education Lawyers and politicians (most of them are really self-serving, apologies to those who are not) RE-tracked 09-24-2020
Something like this:
I met a paper person, he doesn’t like getting wet,
He got a piece of paper, hanging on his wall, he’s Bonafide paper person
It says he knows it all, all the paper people pleasers nod
Wooden man laughs at the paper people
Chorus: Paper people can't get wet, they don’t like fire, watch those matches son
Now he’s got a piece of paper, from other paper people, 
Paper people says 2+2=what they   want it to
Cuz’ I got this piece of Paper, hanging on my wall
It says: “this dude knows it all”

They can't get wet; they don’t like fire watch those matches
Now he’s got a piece of paper, from other paper people, 
Paper people says 2+2=what they   want it to

Paper people can make money out of nothing
Only paper people make the rules
So, unless you got paper, and even if you do,
You have to do what paper people pleaser's do!
Paper people make the rules, we pay their dues! 
This world exists for paper people 
You should be a paper people pleaser!
you an' you you you
The paper people, they are so angry, 
some people are not paper people pleaser's
like Spoiled Children, temper tantrums
n’er happy
Paper People pleaser's run, to throw a temper tantrum
All those dummies out there, they do not care sayin’
All the paper people pleaser's have made fools of us all.
Oh yes, paper people pleaser's pleasing paper people!

Paper People

Wet mirage

A shelter from this world within. A new life triumph the ignorant. Wrapped together in this blanket. Security is a faceless harmony.
 Of all the twisted words. I'm wishing the wishes that scream. In my sleeps nighttime's dream.
 Seagulls splashing the river. Tasting the water so pure. Diving close, never leaving the flock. Security is a faceless harmony.
 Yesterday is today as tomorrow. With you again and again. Spinning through this entropy. Security is a faceless harmony. For Laural...

Sacred Spaces

Check out a music video of Waves here!: https://youtu.be/NHIK5dOaW0U

Waves is about difficult life moments.  How can we ease the pain? There is a refrain during the course of the song where I repeat this in an almost silent plea.  The song captures the feeling of time moving at a different speed in these moments of sorrow and tenderness when the mind freezes.  A numbness infused with a fierce stillness and a fierce love.

Lyrics
Waves
by David Husted

My mind freezes
Despite this burning wind
Are you my temple?
Or am I grasping  at threads

Time's still ticking 
I feel it crawling on my skin
Stop pretending
You don’t feel this burning fire within

Over, Over
All those things you said
Feel Love's Horizon
Sweet Waves Crashing In

the dell

Waves

Rising High

Synthwave inspired beat somewhere in between Pop and Hip/Hop with a slight 80s Retro vibe and eastern influence.

Namaste

Sometimes this life feels like a movie...so I guess the music I make is my personal soundtrack to it...Hope you enjoy... 
✌ ❤ 🎶
