EVERYDAY (JunkHeap (c) Feb 2020 / Remixed/Fixed Aug 2023)

Everyday, I choose wrong to see it turn out right.
Everyday, I feel some pain to see it change in the light.
When it covers me with it’s paint; different shades of grey,
I know the canvas can be made bright again.

Sing a song for me and I’ll let you know if it feels alright.
Breath in the air so clean, and see yourself start to unwind.
The things that life will bring, mean you must never give in.
Small advice but it’s all from within.

Ch.
Everyday, we make our choices, sometimes they're misconstrued.
Everyday, we want things to change, but feel so screwed.

Everyday, think of collecting my things and driving off into the night.
Everyday, wake up cold without her warmth by my side.
With our passion, with our pain, take a chance once again.
Everyday, needs to challenge yesterday.

Ch.
Everyday, we make our choices, sometimes they're misconstrued.
Everyday, we want things to change, but feel so screwed.

Everyday

Warren Huart and a rock band from Seattle - Dragged Under threw a cry about the remodeling of the single CHELSEA... Why not..? To enjoy and not lose practice decided to "re-cut" the song.

"Beyond" is a vocal - version of "Beyond Physics". A wonderful idea of Chris (Kidd Kidavur)to add his vocals to my original instrumental - track. I am really happy about that. Please listen to it. Thank you Chris for your work in this collaboration. Hope you enjoy it as I do.

Future Scourge! ft. Kidd Kidavur - "Beyond"

I used a Seagull 12 string to play this song, done in the key of G. I'm using 12-52 strings which give it a little better resonance and stronger base tones. The shift to the Em or later to the F are much richer in my mind with this setup.

As for the song, interestingly enough Utah Phillips really only sang the song once and only to another person: he never actually recorded it himself.

Bruce (U. Utah) Phillips fought in the Korean War and was returning to the US on a troop ship when he wrote this song. He sang this song to Rosalie Sorrels when he returned to the US and she taped the session and later sang and recorded this song. According to a taped interview, Utah said that he never sang it again after his meeting with Rosalie. In his words: "it was a hard, angry love song and I no longer feel that way anymore."  It was based on his love of a woman he would have met before the war and apparently she did not feel the same way about him. Possibly she made it clear in wartime correspondence, as referenced in the song: "The letter you wrote me".  There are many beautiful images in the song but he saved his deepest thoughts for the last line.  Now rock salt was normally using in the making of ice cream but removing lead pellets and replacing with rock salt in a shotgun shell is meant to leave a sting and is not meant to seriously harm.  Unfortunately, I could not find any reference to adding nails to the mix.  Certainly this is on the darker side of revenge but it does fit the lyrical rhyming.

I truly fell in love with the chord pattern, especially the G down to the Em and then on the last line of each verse, from the G to the F. It's fun to add some extra notes between the G and C chord changes. All in all, it is a beautiful tune and I enjoy playing it.

Rock Salt and Nails
-------------------
[INTRO]

On the banks of the river where the willows hang down
And the wild birds all warble with a low moaning sound
Down in the hollow where the water runs cold
It was there I first listened to the lies that you told

Now I lie on my bed and I see your sweet face
The past I remember time cannot erase
The letter you wrote me, it was written in shame
And I know that your conscience still echoes my name

[SOLO]

Now the nights are so long Lord sorrow runs deep
And nothing is worse than a night without sleep
I'll walk out alone and look at the sky
Too empty to sing to lonesome to cry

If the ladies were blackbirds and the ladies were thrushes
I'd lie there for hours in the chilly, cold marshes
If the ladies were squirrels with high bushy tails
I'd load up my shotgun with rock salt and nails.  

[OUTRO]: I'd load up my shotgun with rock salt and nails.

Light
Only light 
Will prevail

Darkness all around
And you are there
To always care

You
My Shining Star
The reigning one
Victorious for all

Because there is you
You in this world
Fighting for the j-u-s-t-i-c-e
And more

My love
I give you the power
To conquer 
All that's wrong in this world

There will be no more evil
Oh No
Not when there's you 
Captain Good
Around

You, you are my love
I'll stand by you
Forever by your side

Cuz' you
You are my H-e-r-o
You are the one 
That I look up to
I will be your 
Woman-Hun
You will...

Oh...Oh-Oh-Oh

You are stronger than
Hmn-any mountain 
You can never tumble down 
To the ground

Unshakeable
A voice of supreme nature
You will fight 
For all that's g-o-o-d in this world

You were born to be
So very special
My S-h-i-n-i-n-g S-t-a-r
I will look up to you-Hoo...Oh

There can never be 
Light without you-Oo-Hoo-Hoo

Oh-Oh-Oh

LYRICS:

We are consequential
We are the brine of the sea

You don't know the meaning
You don't know the rhyme
I can't explain it 
If you haven't felt it before

You can't fight physics
You can't beat nature
I couldn't make it a day
I couldn't make it a day

Without a shot of life
Freedom to articulate
Don't care if it's irrational
Don't care if it's unattainable

We are over the moon
We are the surge of the sun
We are the life of the night
And the motion of the day

We reverse polarity
And back around again
We are carbon animated

We are isolated
We are together alone
Vivaciously alive
We are extant, we are extant

We are
We are

We are a culmination
We are the progeny
We are stardust tethered
We are the universe

Don't try to look for meaning
This is a one time show
Transient ephemeral
We are, we are, we are

We are life

Future Scourge! & Shark Teeth - "We Are"

There's Always the Waiting

I wish everybody a Happy, happy New Year!

Lyrics:
Hopes for the Future in 2021

This day is the great day when a new year is born
and we hope that it will be a lovely year
that we remember for the rest of our life
and we hope that all our kids feel fine
and that their future will be bright
and the people will open their doors 
and go out for to dance the whole night
they go out for to dance the whole night

Maybe also the weather will be calm without storms
and that we never will see that people lose their homes
not only by floodings but also fires in the woods
and we don't wanna see any earthquakes on our globe
so that all people can feel safe
and the people will open their doors 
and go out for to dance the whole night
they go out for to dance the whole night

And I wish everybody a happy new year
without sickness or other casualties
and that all can get a job after the virus has gone
and we all say please, take care
of all the friends You may have
and the people will open their doors 
and go out for to dance the whole night
they go out for to dance the whole night

Hopes for the Future in 2021
