LYRICS
I was once a lonely one
I had all this love to give
But the takers numbered none
I felt like an expletive

Long before we ever met
We would dream of each other
And then when we fin’lly met
We knew it was all over

She and I, we are most comfortable
She and I are everyday
She and I, we are unmovable
We are one to stay

As my love has long been sold
Bartered for her fanny mole
I no longer fit the mold
Of the hollowed soul

She and I, we are most comfortable
She and I are everyday
She and I, we are unmovable
We are one to stay

Sleeping in my baby’s arms
Feeling warm and wonderful
Reaching for her lucky charms
Love is real and plentiful

She and I, we are most comfortable
She and I are everyday
She and I, we are unmovable
We are one to stay

She and I, we are insep’rable
She and I, we are complete, yeah
She and I, we are most hep-able
We are all the way

The Venerable Beads

She and I

Third of 3 from the V Beads' EP... when the muse is over

LYRICS
Appearing as a light
A beacon when I’ve had too much to think
She guides me through the night
Quells my deepest fear with a wink
She bids me not to weep
Lays my head against her perfumed breast
She lulls me lovingly
Caresses sculling me to needed rest

She makes my life alive
Animates my soul
A zombie no more

Misty is her flight
A vapor into nothingness
Distant, out of sight
She disappears with my duress
I dwell upon a tear
Taste the sweet and bitterless
The essence she confides
A gift too dear to be possessed

She lifts me from myself
And into something else
A mortal no more

Life Alive

And now... a moo-ment of zen, courtesy of "Big Cow Blues"...

Pop and Ambient/Instrumental works.

I'm a homebound composer/songwriter/musician with poor self-marketing skills and no allegiance to a style/scene. In an earlier age, I played live music (guitar, bass, vocals) with various originals bands... but I've always been much more interested in writing+recording (or jamming with talented musicians) than playing for an audience.

I'd describe the majority of my vocal music as pop (in various subgenres) with interesting lyrics, mostly performed by myself with a few instruments+microphones and some software. I also have quite a few instrumentals (adapted chamber music, soundtrack etc) that I'll be posting eventually.

Occasionally, I also play bass in a band that plays some of my songs, as well as a lot of Grateful Dead: https://soundcloud.com/savage-gulf
