Alternate version of "Mary Jane (In The Rain)," with a different lyric and arrangement:

Did you lie when you said
"Let it fall on my head"?
Why would you pull on that thread?
It binds us together

And did you lie when you cried
"I am yours and you are mine"?
"I'll be with you 'till the end of time"?
I think that's forever, I don't know
I'm not the clever one

Now lay, lay down, no, no do not lie
Lay, lay down every alibi
All the fear and the battle cry
Come on, lay it down

And did you lie upon a bed
A bed of roses when you said
"The light has dawned, now lift your head
The sky's open wide"?

Oh did you lie in daydreams
On peaceful waters, gentle streams?
Now do you know what that means?
Can't keep it all, all inside
Hard times will come, can't be denied
Now if you will just

Lay, lay down, no, no do not lie
Lay, lay down every alibi
All the fear and the battle cry
Come on, lay it down

Lay, lay down now, no do not lie
Don't take the blame no, no do not hide
This could all be, be a lie
Come on, lay it down

Lay Down (Do Not Lie)

Here you will find little acoustic pop songs; melancholy, dreamy-folk things. Sometimes some jangly, fuzzy rock tunes or ambient pieces as well. Work-in-progress demos to finished tracks, informal playlists to official album releases. Enjoy.
