IT’S ALL THE SAME

Unknown World

A follow up folk tune, based on one recorded take without a metronome. A song about a stage performer confusing adoration for love.

Yours to take

Beautiful morning
Beautiful day
There may be sunshine
There may be rain

I took a new road on my way to work today
I saw beautiful things
I saw beautiful things

Sometimes my life it tries to get so mundane
So given a choice between the numb 
I’ll embrace the pain

We are all terminal
You know it’s what they say
This life it’s incurable
It’s just a matter of the day

We all know this
But we choose not to believe
We exist in oblivion
We limit what we see

Sing off key
Live out of control
The best part of living
Is not knowing what tomorrow holds

Hold on to your loved ones
Or hold on to your gold
Cling to worldly possessions
Or fortify your homes

I saw a girl standing
She was standing alone
I stopped and said hello
When I left, she was all aglow

We don’t know the difference 
The difference we can make
The road you don’t go down
The chances you don’t take

Sometimes we trip
Sometimes we’ll take a fall
But I’d rather stumble then never know, 
never know at all

Sing off key
Sing out of control
The best part of living
Is not knowing what tomorrow holds

Beautiful morning
Beautiful day
There may be sunshine
There may be some rain

I took a new road 
On my way to work today
I saw beautiful things
I saw beautiful things

Touch The Stars

They shoved me in the basement, where the light don’t glow
Took my desk, my coffee cup, but there’s one thing they don’t know
I’ve got a fiery treasure, bright against the gray
My red stapler’s my salvation, it’s my only getaway

Oh, red stapler, hold me tight
In this cubicle jungle, you’re my light
When the world burns down, I’ll smile and choose
To walk away singin’ the Red Stapler Blues

The boss can take my paycheck, the copier can jam
But my little red stapler says, “Stick it to the man”
It’s more than just an office tool, it’s my sacred fight
A tiny piece of justice in the corporate night

Oh, red stapler, hold me tight
In this cubicle jungle, you’re my light
When the world burns down, I’ll smile and choose
To walk away singin’ the Red Stapler Blues

Oh, red stapler, hold me tight
Shine like fire in the spotlight
Staple the blues, staple 'em true
Red stapler, I believe in you!

Red Stapler

Lyrics

Does anyone else ever wish that you could redo all the things you've done before?
But much better than you did them
Always rumination
Or maybe an obsession
Still, I'm not letting go of the idea that things can always be improved
With a little self-reflection
To give you some direction
And you might need it, cuz...

Bullies want your collapse
The skeptics choose to attack you
But never concede on all that you truly believe
No more fabricated actions
Clogging up the thought stream
(Clogging up the thought stream)
Clogging up the thought stream

When it's hard enough to be me, should I really wanna pose as perfect?
Stay true to yourself and in the end, trust it'll be worth it
Others will start to see you
For who you really are

Still, I'm not letting go of the idea that things can always be improved
With a little self-reflection

rumination

A track about the struggles of dealing with depression and unemployment at the same time

The only one

Do you like tabletop RPGs or computer games in that style? I was interested in them before I picked up playing the guitar. Above all, I enjoyed creating my own worlds, NPCs, maps, and even my own systems. Then my favorite role was running them for others. Have fun!
