The Fools in Town are on Our Side

They pulled the oil from the ground
Turn it into something that won't break down
It's in everything, we even see it swimming in our little veins, oh yeah

In this plastic life, I'm gonna die

It fills all the creases in our minds
You can even extract it from our spine
This plastic universe, it's a thing only money could ever buy

In this plastic life, it feels like I'm gonna die
This plastic life make me wanna die
Nothing is real, Even I feel fake
But in this plastic life, we must survive

Vita falsa est
Vita mendax est

Jeff and I are happy to present our first live arena gig! Not really, but you can imagine.  This one started when Jeff was telling me about how he and Jo (sonic structures and silent stretches ) were writing some of their poetry in a stream off consciousness style, writing a line and then handing it off back and forth until it was done.   I suggested maybe we try something like that with the guitars.   So we did.  We exchanged ideas until it felt done and here's where we landed.   
This one was a lot of fun to pull together and really just kind of not think about it as we wrote.

Who Said Anything About a Bridge? - w/Stonerjazz

Written by James Geer

In the ocean of my mind
From subconscious deep
A storm may come my way
Troubling my sleep
 
I’m Skirting the abyss.   
My Circumstances dire 
What has wrought me this
Circling the gyre

And crashing are the waves
And howling is the wind 
I find I’m save at bay
When I reach for you again

When thoughts of empty years
When I had lost at love
Attack my inner peace
Like hailstones from above

Safe at bay

Yes, I can actually play this crap, it's not like it's that technical. My practice amp now works if if you hit the side and hold your breath........ Never said I could play and sing..... Fly Nightmares would be a 6 piece if it were a real band....

Lyrics:

I am buried in your heart, where your hate tears me apart.
I can hardly breathe, you drain this life away from me.
You drain this life, away from me
You drain this life, away from me
You drain this life, away from me

So take a piece of me
and I wil take… a piece of you
So take… a piece of me
and I wil take… 
a piece of you
So take… a piece of me
and I wil take… a piece of you
So I will take…

Have not been playing the guitar for more than couple of hours the past 4 months - too many reasons to open up here, but this one came through as a force of nature a few days ago.

There are some metal songs that are waiting to come out, the WAR trilogy needs to be completed.

Sometimes things go my way
Sometimes a win make a great day
I ain’t always down on myself

Mostly man, I like what’s in the mirror
Sometimes I think 
Jerry Reed would be better

Just saying, stuff piles up
Saying, don’t want to face it
Bear down and power through

Mostly man, I like what’s in the mirror
Sometimes I think 
Jerry Reed would be better

Alarm clock going off
That time again
Sun soon coming up
Thankful for another day

Alarm clock going off
That time again
Sun soon coming up
Thankful for another day

Down time in the afternoon
List of never ending honey do’s
Put up my feet, take a snooze

Mostly man, I like what’s in the mirror
Sometimes I think 
Jerry Reed would be better

Alarm clock going off
That time again
Sun soon coming up
Thankful for another day
