A.D. (LIVE ACOUSTIC)

I'm all out of luck
With counting sheep
Try as I might
I just can't sleep

It's 4am by my bedside clock
And I'm lying here awake
The radio hums with DJ talk
It's hours before daybreak

I'm all out of luck
With counting sheep
Try as I might
I just can't sleep

I've tried a lot of sleeping pills
The doctor said to take
Drown it all with alcohol and still
I'm here awake

I've tried so hard to drift away
But I never get too far My restless mind just won't obey
I give up and play guitar

I'm all out of luck
With counting sheep
Try as I might
I just can't sleep

I'm all out of luck
With counting sheep
Try as I might
I just can't sleep

I Just Can't Sleep

Hope - Music & Lyrics by Mark Jackson

Well I hope someday that you know how it feels to be lost going nowhere
Well I hope someday that you know how it feels to see the people stare
I’ve been stripped of my pride, my heart opened wide
Lord knows what’s inside but Ihope someday to find it
I must confess, I’ve been so stressed, my life is a mess 
You know I don’t even seem to mind it

Well I hope someday somebody comes to save me, but I doubt they ever will
I hope someday somebody comes to save me, just take me away from here
I shouldn’t lie it’s so hard to try to say goodbye you know everybody needs a friend
It’s a crazy thing what the bad times can bring, a birds broken wings, it’ll never fly again

Well I hope someday that people will say that I did I did my very best
I hope someday that people will say I always, I always seem to make them laugh
Through sickness and health, poor times and wealth, each hand that I’m dealt, I always try to stay the same. Through thick and through thin I bounce back again, I lose then I win, and I’m always ready to play the game

Oh yeah, hoping things will be fine someday
Hoping things will be fine someday
Hoping things will be fine someday

A cover version of Cold Night – originally by Swedish band Eskobar.

Cold Night

Cast of Chracters:
Sean Smith /|||||| Orange Paperbacks -- @the-orange-paperbacks — acoustic guitar and composition
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-  four string fretted bass and organ
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – electric guitar
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– electric guitar, mix, mastering, and production

This song began when Sean, who is a superb writer of catchy pop songs, was inspired by the classic surfer movie, The Endless Summer. He wrote it on his acoustic guitar with a mind to sharing it with Eclectic Collective. He first shared it with Ken, who promptly provided driving drums and invited the rest of us to play on it, too. Josh hopped on first, adding his bass and completing the rhythm section.
  About this time, Tez got involved, laying down the Ventures-esque melodic electric guitar you hear throughout. Right after Tez did his thing, Stephen came along soon after and completed the lead part with his fuzzy, adventurous guitar. 
  At this point, it still felt very stringy, so Josh decided to lay down the organ part you hear in there, too. Once it was cooked, we tapped Stephen to do his expert brand of production, mix, and mastering to get it ready to serve. 
  This is the second time Ken and Josh have collaborated with Sean, the first being almost two years ago on a song called Diamond Marigold. When Sean approached Ken with a second song, not only Ken was thrilled, but Josh and the rest of the gang were, too. Sean has a lot of great, catchy, accessible music on his page that is all worth putting in your ears.
  We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it

Favorite Pair Of Sandals-Eclectic Collective/Orange Paperbacks

Humans are the only species who preserve a lasting relationship from parents to children and vice versa after the offspring has reached adolescence. This can be curse and blessing at the same time in some cases, but overall it is a gift in my view. We will stay the children of our parents for a lifetime obviously. Once you have realized this and don't consider it a threat anymore you are given the chance to close the circle in a peace- and beautiful way.
