Lovely lift at 1.24. Sounds like you have an excellent band/producer working with you on these very well written, catchy songs. I shall spend some more time listening to the whole album soon.

What a beautiful song. I'm thrilled. Bravo, Tamar! 👏

Tiny Injuries finds Tamar redefining herself in the wake of her dad’s passing, and what she finds often isn’t flattering, as she works her way through grief and into acceptance. 
“We all go through life and have experienced things that affect us and cause problems, whether we know that at the time or not,” she says. “Lots of anxiety and memories we can never rid ourselves of. Some of them are small, and some are bigger but they are injuries that remain with us. And it’s not about ‘poor me.’  Everyone internalizes these injuries, and none of them are ‘tiny.’”

tiny injuries

Miss Terious

Basically we're all the same
Gifted with a body and a brain
And a heart that beats us through all those ways
Through glorious nights and fatal days

Still there's something...mysterious

We have changed the world so much
In different ways we lost the touch
But we don't want to take the blame
There's no reason in this game
Basically...

Still there's something...mysterious

Working hard in all different ways
Winter, spring, summer and fall
All the time again and again
To deny who is to blame
Basically...

Still there's something...mysterious

Still there' something more above
A mysterious thing called love

Miss Terious

FLOATING

I Know Your Name

Drums: David Lopez

Stock crash middle class 
Counterfeit crime of a century
Cutthroat don’t choke
Better him than you on the brink

Cool breeze charismatic
Grave robbing scam of a century
Drill baby thrill baby
Burning up an Anthropocene

It’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony
It’s been a long time since I realized I couldn’t relate
I’ve been craning my neck trying to see if there’s a sign that was meant for me I said it’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony

Bring it back

Pill-poppin priest talkin trash 
Through the crash of a century
Blind luck dumb fuck 
Jamming up the waves on my scene

Flip top shock jock 
Certified creep of a century
I see you don’t know how to read
But you write like you know what it means

It’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony
It’s been a long time since I realized I couldn’t relate
I’ve been craning my neck trying to see if there’s a sign that was meant for me. I said it’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony

Bring it back

Lost in a Symphony

"Tiny Injuries" is my third full length solo album to complete the trilogy. The first two being "The Restless Dreams of Youth" released in 2021 and "Start at the End" released in 2022. The inspiration comes from the idea that throughout our lives we experience moments that leave tiny  emotional or physical injuries. And as we grown older,  we try to forget about them or hide them, but even the tiniest ones can resurface and we become forced to deal with the scars. No injuries are ever really tiny.

Oh Oh My Heart Stopped

'tarnished ground'

Falsestart: drums, bass, production
Little Lone Waltz: lyrics, vocals
Jonathan Beckenstein: lead guitars
Scotty: rhythm guitar, lyrics, vocals

The darkness all around, 
it pulls me down into the ground
and, yet, I've found my being sound.
For the light that shines through found
some truths, confound.
A strange compound.

The fall of light rebounds
and calls on tarnished ground.
The fall of light glows round
and calls a distant sound.

tarnished ground (with Falsestart, Little Lone Waltz and Jonathan Beckenstein)

Fading Smoke

This song is based on an unfortunately true story. I did a search for someone I knew in college and I found out that she had passed quite young. I gave this song a happier ending, but it still chokes me up a bit.

LYRICS
(C)2025 Ggreg Snyder

[Intro]
I can still see her leaning on the window ledge in the dorm,
Laughing at my bad jokes,
Her notebooks full of doodles, stars and arrows,
Coffee always in her hand.
Been thirty years… and tonight I just wondered—
Where’d she end up?

[Verse 1]
I typed her middle name, the one she never used,
An age to match my own, a little trail of clues.
No picture, just a town she might’ve passed through,
I sat there chasing shadows in the screen’s blue glow.

[Chorus]
I searched for her,
With a heart full of old refrains.
I searched for her,
Through the wires and the windowpanes.

[Verse 2]
An obituary popped up, with the letters all the same,
And my chest went hollow at the weight of her name.
Thought she’d left the world a few years back,
I whispered it softly, the screen faded black.

[Chorus]
I searched for her,
And I thought I had found the end.
I searched for her,
Like a fool looking back again.

[Bridge]
But the years didn’t line up, the town was all wrong,
She never lived there, not where she belonged.
Funny how the heart can break in a minute,
Over somebody’s story with a stranger in it.

[Verse 3]
Then another page opened, a clearer trail,
Oregon skies and a wedding veil.
Two kids in the picture, smiling wide,
Her husband standing steady at her side.

[Verse 4]
And I leaned back quiet, let the silence fall,
Grateful she’d made it through it all.
Not mine to keep, but good to see,
She’s happy where she’s meant to be.

[Chorus – Reprise]
I searched for her,
Through the years and the miles that fly.
I searched for her,
And I finally found her life.
