When you called me this morning – the sound on your end – was so deafening – I got scared –tried not to act weird – Do I run to your place – your butt dial said everything – I bet right now that you wish I wasn’t listening
But I was…. And I heard my  whole world crash down – in a second my life’s upside down and I’m holding on to last night’s love – and today – I guess it’s a brand new day – when you threw it all away – I'm still holding on to last nights love
I tried to call you that afternoon – phone rang off the hook – and my frustration – left me contemplating – do I come over your place with gun in hand so I can eliminate what killed us
And it's all because... I heard my  whole world crash down – in a second my life’s upside down and I’m holding on to last night’s love – and today – I guess it’s a brand new day – when you threw it all away – I'm still holding on to last nights love
I get one call the said when I was arrested and now it’s 2AM and my head is spinning – I grab the gun from them and point it to my head – say one last prayer in vain Oh god please numb this pain 
And there i was.. I heard my  whole world crash down – in a second my life’s upside down and I’m holding on to last night’s love – and today – I guess it’s a brand new day – when you threw it all away – I.m still holding on to last nights love,,,,,,,,

Last Nights Love

Forest at Dawn

Once Upon A Time...

Real McCOYs

A past lover keeps showing up in my dreams and reminding me of my failures.
From my new LP " Low Profile". My best tracks from 2023. Thanks for listening!

Lyrics:
I get my melancholy straight from the IV drip
A Xanax, a red eyed flight on the sky ship
That's when you appeared
I'd been gorging myself on 
Televised violence
It's like synconized swimming
You were grinning while the plane was rapidly descending
(You smiled all the way down)
The atmosphere was colorless
Odorless
Void of all surface and all texture
I'm reveling in my psychosis
You reminded me I never finished my
Junkyard magnum opus
You still show up in my dreams

We were entering into 
An impressionist painted landscape
With a language that we just didn't understand
You reminded me that I'm a big believer
In blindly believing
And I need to start drinking in
A little bit more in what I'm seeing
We're like suburban dadaist
Coming in, out of the rain
My mind was racing
Like those 808 beats
There all the same
Well, that's the way the Goddamn wheel rolls
You headed off into the night
You never told me to change the angle of the light
You still show up in my dreams

"You never even had it even when you had it your hands,"
You've got to bring it right down
To where the sideways ends in the light
I'm digging down deep
I'm digging down slow
I'm striking oil 
Or the fires down below
You still show up in my dreams

You Still Show Up In My Dreams

Stars

A track I re-recorded about 5 months ago. Like a lot of my acoustic songs, I've been sitting on this for a few years. Heartache is a shitty game. Time to let this one see some light. All music, lyrics and production done by me and me alone. I hope you feel it...enjoy.



Well I've been tossing and turning and thinking of you
But nothing seem to get the pain out of my chest from you
And from morning 'til night I'm along for the fight
And I try to pull you from my brain but I just can't seem to
And the lessons I've learned from the times I've got burned
Could never add up to me understanding what you would do
And I felt to blind inside I did not deny you
And I let you in then you tore my insides in two

Let me down again
Let me down again

And I wake up everyday and all that I think 
Is that we had everything working in our favor lately
But maybe I was blind and I could not see your pain
And I thought everything was perfect and meant to be
Then you ran away and you didn't say goodbye
You just left me to cry and just sit all alone without you
And the pain runs so deep its still coursing inside
But I find myself passing time with you on my fucking mind
On my mind on my mind

Let me down again
Let me down again

Let Me Down

The English saying "We're all going to Hell in a hand-cart" just about describes my mood when I wrote "Descent". It was one of those weeks in northern hemisphere Spring 2024 when there was absolutely no good news coming in from anywhere on the planet.

I trust that things will get better!

Descent

DE ESO NO DUDO

De Eso No Dudo

Let's get away with murder for the second time
In all my life I never knew how not to tell a lie
She's only doing this so we can understand
That everything is coming up roses, because

She's got all of the stars she keeps them inside little lockets
They lullaby and dream away held safe within her pockets
A gentle hand comes from the sky down here and it reminds me
Of all the times I tried to run but now I now I can't help

Slowly

La la la la slowly falling into
La la la la slowly falling, falling into
La la la la slowly falling into
La la la la slowly falling into one with you
