Once I went to Christian bible camp, lured by horses, saved by jesus.
Years later Jesus pissed me off and so I abandoned him. Still, he is fodder for a lot of songs.

01 Please Bless 1

My friend said, wouldn't it be great if there was a graveyard and instead of people buried there it'd be the memories of all our lost loved? I said, I'm not sure about that. She said, let's have a song race about it. Here is what happened.

02 Mourn Your Losses 1

When is the appropriate amount of time after which one can say, 'I love you'. Not sure. Here is a pop song about it, the kind of pop song that is too long for pop radio and probably too left field.

From the album Clocks and Hearts Keep Going (Nov 2010). Produced by Jim Bryson

03 Tra-la-la 1

A eulogy for the death of love. Optimism. The end of something can be as good as the beginning. A poem more than a song, with beats made by an archaic machine.

From the album Clocks and Hearts Keep Going (Nov 2010). Produced by Jim Bryson

04 Eulogy for You and Me 1

Again, the death of love. The sad moment when you know it's gonna end. Banjo is involved.

From the album Clocks and Hearts Keep Going (Nov 2010). Produced by Jim Bryson

05 Sad Secret 1

I don't want to be buried in the ground. I told this to my mum and she was sad, so here is my version of an uplifting song about death! Mean organ by Jim.

06 Don't Bury Me 1

Life is hard. It would be nice to be rocked like a baby. But I weigh too much or else I can't find the giants.

From the album Clocks and Hearts Keep Going (Nov 2010). Produced by Jim Bryson

07 Hush, little weeper 1

I forget basic courtesies like sharing, like eye contact with strangers on the sidewalk. If we could let each other in, life would be better. Mournful sounds for hopeful concepts.

From the album Clocks and Hearts Keep Going (Nov 2010). Produced by Jim Bryson

08 One Room 1

Sometimes you gotta sweep your own dust, clean your own corners, keep your own burdens. Garage drums sound good with organs and banjos.

From the album Clocks and Hearts Keep Going (Nov 2010). Produced by Jim Bryson

09 Sweep the Dust 1

Sometimes I wish I was an animal, and life would be simpler. Vulnerability, everywhere.
This song requires patience, as does life.

From the album Clocks and Hearts Keep Going (Nov 2010). Produced by Jim Bryson
