Some months ago I've been paired with Geoff to compose a song based on his lyrics "I'm not angry". The lyrics were so well-phrased that I heard the stomping of an angry, but fierce woman who is going through a divorce. Alyssa did an awesome job getting into the character and her voice is perfect for that song. Originally composed on the guitar, I am happy that Albert joined our team. We really needed that dark vibe in between folk and blues.

==== LYRICS ====

You used to be grounded
You used to be whole
Knew where you were going
Hit all of your goals

I used to be happy
I used to be glad
Knew what I was doing
Was pleased what I had

But I’m not angry
About what used to be
Don’t seek retribution
Or shake you from your sanctuary

We had a communion
We had a divorce
The pain and the pleasure
Took it’s own course

Down through the river
And out in the street
To wash over strangers
Shoes and their feet

But I’m not angry
About what used to be
Don’t seek retribution
Or shake you from your sanctuary

No I don’t care
For the love that’s been and gone
Cos a runaway train
Was waiting all along
Yes a runaway train
Was waiting all along

This is my first time playing on my new Yamaha drum set. The most I had ever played before was for maybe 2 minutes until the owner of said drum set asked me to quit playing them LOL. This song is about what it must have been like being an innocent woman in the town of Salem in the 1600's where the townspeople, all unbenownst to them, tripped out on some rotting rye stored away in the farm silos for winter. The whole town freaked out and became engulfed in a group-think paranoia situation and started killing off the women of the town thinking they were witches. 

Happy Halloween and hope you enjoy my spooky tune 👻🧙🏻🎃

Please, I Swear, I'm Not a Witch!

Frightened - Why don't you run and hide
Tonight - The raven is flyin' blind

The moon is black - just as you flee
The clock has struck - dark deity
Fadin' in and out of this nightmare
Tryin' to stay alive - a way out is nowhere

The night is bound, gagged, and tied
She cried so hard with her eyes so wide
Fading - into the night
Dying - is the final price
Help me - see the dawn's light
Surrender - without a fight

Running - heart exploding inside
You can have me - misery denied
To torture - painful and tied
All my bones - crushed up inside
An illusion - this soul and life
And a darkness - knife deep inside

Please, I Swear, I'm Not a Witch!
