Time Settles - Lyrics: 

And the decision made a hole, a vacancy in a vital inner chamber in my bones
This is what finally separated me from all my friends for whom I became skeletal

Time settles over me
Time settles over me 

And then the places I visit became the same inside world that I thought I was in
And like a fly scribbling the air I know neither the place nor what the hour is

Time settles over me
Time settles over me

And I, far off inside, was old

And now the years are closing in, each minute the last minute and following me

Time Settles

wasabi peas (2018)

not quite fairy tale.  sung by an ogre.  likely suits uncommon tastes.
(from the imaginary album Chumley & the Sparkle Bunch)
2018

six minutes of sunshine (2018)

tears for fears in an alternate universe.
inspired, rather, by m.andrews and g.jules
2018

mad world (2018)

the only Police song i never liked.  
some say it's from the point of view of a stalker,
though i would argue it could also be sung by my cat.
now playing in an alternate universe.
2018

i'll be watching you (2018)

recorded in Brooklyn
for the album Songs For Lost Children, 1998
you can hear the lovely sound of the faulty hard drive keeping an awkward and out-of-step beat.
(oh and of course, yes, jimi hendrix.)
(i'm sure i got the lyrics a bit mixed up.)

manic depression (1998)

Midnight Dream

A live, four-track recording of the very first time we ever played this song.   I mean, the first time EVER - the musicians are hearing me singing this for the very first time, and just going for it.  It's raw, unmixed, and it took us a minute to settle into a key.  Despite its flaws, I think you'll agree it's worthwhile.  The things you can do with a jug of wine and a 4-track, kids ... Enjoy.  Musicians: Bob Ziller, vocal; Ethan Winograd, guitar; Myki Bernard, bass; Jim Hohman, drums; Doug Smith, percussion, Bobby Ferrang, tambourine;  George Andrews, beer bottle.  Recorded by Bobby Ferrang.  Portrait of Walt Whitman by Bob Ziller
