Homesick

A song about being young, naïve and in love!

LYRICS:

You were born to a tired union
Given blessings and a false communion
So you were ready for a cruel and brutal world

Found a life in a hidden graveyard
Spent the night with a living saviour
Snuck away in the early morning cold

This clueless love is a foolish undertaking
And we're fools to believe in the word that we speak

Your blue-green eyes are full of hope and wonder
So we fool ourselves for one more week

This clueless love has made fool of us
We're gonna try to make the best of an awkward situation
Gonna need some imagination

Clueless Love

A folky track about self-doubt.

LYRICS:

I'm afraid of the work to be done
to turn these rocks to stone walls
and turn those walls into my home
Because in the end the roof could fall
Would I start again or abandon it all?

The crowd my mind conjured call out to the coward
howling at me and pointing
Ushers flee
and flowers thrown down in hope at the start of the show
turn to ash on the stage
The house lights are turned down low
to cut the performer from the wrath they all feel
which is fucking stupid
because the crowd isn't real

We couldn't afford to avoid another head-on collision
with our former masters
We wouldn't find out 'til later that they were the same people
that we pretended to be
You shouldn't fall out with everybody
who cannot meet you eye-to-eye
They're maybe just trying to focus on something deeper
that you can't see yet

The crowd my mind conjured call out to the coward
howling at me and pointing
Ushers flee
and flowers thrown down in hope at the start of the show
turn to ash on the stage
The house lights are turned down low
to cut the performer from the wrath they all feel
which is fucking stupid
because the crowd isn't real

Remember, remember your brain isn't kind
Breathe and ignore
Remember, remember your brain isn't kind
I am not that thought
I am more..

The Crowd

Strange Benediction

It's a blessing to be able to create music and if someone enjoys my work, that's icing on the cake! All blessings come from God.

As a retired DOD Civil Service worker, I have time to record some. I have been recording at home sice around 1990 and some of my tracks are very old.  I‘ve had 50+ years in bands playing music of many types. I still play the club scene 3 to 4 times a month. Life is good!

I'm a Guitarist who likes to write, record and sing many styles of music. Please check out my tracks. I'm also enjoying the occasional collaborations.  Meeting some good friends on here and continuing to grow. Thank you for listening!


Es una bendición poder crear música y si alguien disfruta de mi trabajo, ¡eso es la guinda del pastel! Todas las bendiciones vienen de Dios. Como trabajador jubilado del Servicio Civil del Departamento de Defensa, tengo tiempo para registrar algunos. He estado grabando en casa durante unos 23 años y algunas de mis pistas son muy antiguas. He tenido más de 50 años en bandas tocando música de muchos tipos. Todavía juego en la escena del club de 3 a 4 veces al mes. ¡La vida es buena! Soy un guitarrista al que le gusta escribir, grabar y cantar muchos estilos de música. Por favor, echa un vistazo a mis pistas. También estoy disfrutando de las colaboraciones ocasionales. Conocer a algunos buenos amigos aquí y seguir creciendo. ¡Gracias por escuchar!
