Saturday Night

Ten Twenty

a life of time on my hands.
watching, waiting
seeing, expecting
eyes wide open
in the longest night
as the clock ticks down
and the windows sleep.


cover me as you pass on
save me from the weeds
clap at the flies
that dance in the sky
bury me, warm, 
under your feet.


when the world's awake 
and the new sun comes
will I stand tall
amongst the stones?
another day
another life
or just another break?

time on watch.

there's still time 
on the Watch.

Watch

the waters come
the rain will fall
and before too long 
i will wash away

and I can’t think
and I can’t see
and I can’t hear 
them call for me 

and i can’t think
all upside down
and I can’t hear
a yelling crowd
and I can’t see
a new way out
or find that precious silver cloud
     

there is no escape

there is no escape

I am here

Words:
One day
I’m gonna ‘make I through’
One day
It will ‘all make sense’
One day
I’ll be ‘something new’
One day
I can stop this pretence

Spinning in circumstance
Spitting behind masks
Cutting through the conversations
That were never made to last

Promises of ‘a lifetime’
Promises of ‘success’
Promises of ‘the truth’
Promises of ‘my best’

Can I see the end
Can I see the goal
Can I still pretend
One day I’ll be whole

Maybe if I fake
Maybe if I bend
Maybe if twist
This will end

One day
I’m gonna ‘make I through’
One day
It will ‘all make sense’
One day
I’ll be ‘something new’
One day
I can stop this pretence

One of these days
I can stop

Pretence (one day never)

SHOULD

If I’d known those were my last minutes with you
There’s so much more that I could’ve said
If I’d known those were my last minutes with you
I’d’ve made a snapshot in my head

Now I know I’ll never see you again
And I will  never get to explain
Now I know I’ll never see you again
And nothing will ever be the same

Should’ve kept you close
I would’ve heard your cries
If I’d kept you close
we could’ve have said goodbye

Don’t hate me for my weakness
I thought would make me strong
Don’t hate me for my anger
That made the right so wrong

You stretched my understanding  
Confusion running wild
A life of such potential 
Left so unreconciled

A piece of me has gone with you
You’ve taken all of your sunshine away
A piece of me got lost with you
And I keep searching for it every day

Should’ve kept you close
I would’ve heard your cries
If I’d kept you close
we could’ve have said goodbye

should

Awake

Been a while since i posted... tryin to keep a straight head, seems more difficult these days. anyway... another track, well, kinda 2 merged, how everything seems to have something underneath... it kept me amused for the weekend.

If you need a description just give me a couple of mins to listen, probably quicker than reading this tripe...

keep that head clear, y'all

earwig + i know how i got here

Dangerous to give someone a guitar, bass, monologue, garageband and just enough knowledge for him to think he might know what he's doing. But I might be learning something.
Saving on therapy by dumping it on soundcloud.
