Looking Up At The Clouds - On Piano

Another low-fi recording from around 2014, although the song itself was written in 2001 as a reaction to the collapse of the World Trade Center. Quite what my lyrics have to do with that terrible day, I'm not too sure now, but I like the track, so here it is. 

Lyrics
Traffic lights are changing daily
Up and down this fine, fine land
But there’s no one crossing over
‘less they’re holding somebody’s hand

Fear and consternation baby
Are gripping this fine, fine land
No one dares to watch the TV  
‘less they’re holding somebody’s hand

I saw you shy, I saw you try to hide
I saw you hesitate, unable to decide …  
To come inside … please come inside

Oh Fat Betty caught the night train
Though it wasn’t even in her plan
They found her dead inside the train wreck
Holding onto somebody’s hand

I saw you shy, I saw you try to hide
I saw you hesitate, unable to decide …  
To come inside … please come inside

Traffic lights are changing daily
Up and down this fine, fine land
But there’s no one crossing over
‘less they’re holding somebody’s hand

In India You (Brian Jonestown Massacre Cover)

Crystal Gazing is not reserved for the darker practioners of the arts.  Sort of like meditation, but your trip down the rabbit hole shouldn’t take more than a second.  Listen to the track at your own risk.  If you have problems such as epilepsy, consult your doctor first before listening.

Lyrics:
Let's hear it for the loners
We don't take up space in your orgy room
I love the people who bring
Joy into my life
They break the light through
I just like to sit home and watch TV
While I watch the world come unglued

I don't stay out until dawn
I fall asleep with the TV on
You can call it the introvert blues
I just use the energy that people lose
In a different way
I stay at home at night
De-stressing from my day
I don't watch television for genuine smiles

I just use the energy that people lose
I booked us a table for 2
In my interior life
in the east wing
With the ocean view
I don't watch television for genuine smiles
I'm just trying to make it through my day
As characters I like
Oh, like, Vinnie Barbarino
And Walter White
I don't watch television for genuine smiles
I like the blue light coming through
While the world comes unglued

I Don't Watch Television For Genuine Smiles

Silver sands we’ll never lie on
Crystal water we won’t float in
Get immersed in our illusions
It’s like flying
It’s like flying

White shroud of clouds we won’t fall through
Blinding fog we won’t get lost in
Get immersed in our delusions
It’s like diving
It’s like diving

We never wanted to go that far
We never wanted to be found
We get swept by our illusions
We get killed by imagination

Golden grass we’ll never step on
Sparkling air we’ll never breath in
Get consumed by our illusions
It’s like flying
It’s like flying

Happy friends we won’t embrace
Childish dreams we’ll never chase
Get immersed in our delusions
It’s like diving
It’s like diving


We never wanted to get that far
We never wanted to be found
Uuuu
Ooooh
 We get swept by our illusions
We get killed by imagination
Uaaaa

Delirium
