Nada Personal [Soda Stereo Cover]

Lyrics:

I can take mine from you
Don't make me say that agayn

I've sent my henchmen your way
No fear. We'll come should you stay.
Innnnn yourrrrrr podddddd

My wife is not a host
She won't birth your alien son
Peacemakers are not a joke
They'll turn you to alien scum

I've sent my love in a vessel for mars
Doon'tttt youuuu darreeee comeee her waaayyy

Three months in she came to a halt
Her plane was at fault and it stalled
And it crashed and it shook up their sands

I came from satellites far away
And I know I can't stay
But she's mine so I'll take her
And be on my way

I don't think so
I don't think so...

Sea of Intranquility

I thought today would be a good day to post our new tune, “I Don’t Mind” 
In this particular instance, the song is about Taylor but it can really be about anyone you love.

Making this release even more special is the fact that two of my favorite musicians took part in it: Shane Butler of Quilt, AKA “our band” as a couple, and James Petralli of White Denim, whose music inadvertently caused me to move to Austin. About a week ago, they both providentially asked me if I needed artwork or help mixing one of my songs. 
I’m almost tempted to say something about how the stars lined up for our love. Yet, I likely won’t.

Maybe this song will get my point across.

Happy Valentine’s Day,
Daniel

Lyrics:

Watch me as I try to fit in on your time
But there could be nights when I'll have to fend for my own kind

I don't know to fight for things I don't have a use for
But this couldn't stand in between me and my home town

Still I don't want to go
Oooooh

Only one that's known a bit more than I'm used to
Nothing can change that but I can and I don't like it

Yet, I likely won't
Love like this is stone

I don't mind, I don't
Being bored with you
I don't mind I don't 
Being alone with you

And in the end, that'll matter more than a million more friends

I don't mind, I don't
Wasting time on you
I don't mind, I don't 
Staying home with you

And in the end that'll matter more than a million more friends
And in the end you will matter more than our bulk of half-friends 

I Don't Mind

A song inspired by the film "Slacker" by Richard Linklater.

Lyrics: 

I don't know my own
I don't own a home

But I've got less important things to do
I've got less important things to do

I could probably vote
I should probably vote

But I've got less important things to do...

Lyrics: 

From time to time you’ll find that 
Not all Earth folk are to be trusted

Then you’ll meet some more
Soon you’ll know what for
Then you’ll meet some more
Soon you’ll know what for

This time you win
Next time you’ll learn

On through your life
But don’t give out your time for free
For most I’ve found
Have not been worthy

Need I remind you’re not to be sold? 
Need I remind you’re not to be sold? 

This time you win
Next time you’ll learn
This time you win 
Next time you’ll learn...

Not All Are To Be Trusted

Lyrics:

From time to time you’ll find that 
Not all Earth folk are to be trusted 

Then you’ll meet some more 
Soon you’ll know what for 
Then you’ll meet some more 
Soon you’ll know what for 

This time you win 
Next time you’ll learn 

On through your life 
But don’t give out your time for free 
For most I’ve found 
Have not been worthy 

Need I remind you’re not to be sold? 
Need I remind you’re not to be sold? 

This time you win 
Next time you’ll learn 
This time you win 
Next time you’ll learn

Lyrics: 

He's called to see you, he's called
He's called to see you, he's called

I don't know how to say no
I don't know how to say no

Takes me time to learn...

I don't know how to say no
I don't know how to say no

Takes me time to learn...

So I went to town, kept my head down
So I went to town, to get put down

And I don't know how to get back
I don't know how to get back to myself...

I Don't Know How To Say No

Don't Leave Me Alone To Myself

Town Square

La Nacion

Lyrics:

“You don’t know how much you’ll need me,” she said.

No we see what you feel, lie down in your head 
Will they know the real you when you’re dead? 

I’m really trying not to worry now 
Since I found you, I just don’t know how


All you can do is something about it
All you can do is something about it

I’m really tired of not knowing why

All You Can Do Is Something About It

This Place Is Death

Man, DeLorean

Lyrics:

On the carousel they left me
And I knew it right away
I was only five (years old)
Nothing but my name
Did I really cause them that much shame?

The year was 1925
And I stood there crying
But then this strange folk came around
And he took my hand, he said,
“Have you lost your way north?”
“Or haven’t you a north at all, son?”
And then he raised me as his own
And the sobbing stopped

I’m just glad! (Why, why, why?)
You’re not coming home tonight
Tell your lies and stay at large
But you’re not coming home tonight

I’m just glad! (Why, why, why?)
You’re not coming home tonight
Stay at large and tell your lies
But you’re not coming home tonight
