RPM 2014
clenching teeth
through an iron jaw
your eyes are just slivers on your face
rosy glow
on your porcelain cheeks
there is nothing not a trace
happy, are you?
losing sleep
the weight is heavy
you can barely keep afloat
clenching…

been so long since I’ve been out of the city
maybe even longer than I can remember
tried to leave many times, oh what a pity
there’s no around anymore to take me away
should I be a hermit in a barrel
under the brush creek bridge…
RPM 2014
full, the ocean inside
of meadows smelling softly
of butterflies that swallow
all, there inside, it all
it’s too painful to think
and I must be stronger
than this tornado in my
soul, there inside, to release
tidal waves erupt…
I'll tell you a secret, a lot of them started out as piano songs, and then I had to learn to play them on guitar. every song but 1 has multiple guitars trying to do just that.

horrible life
needs a favor tonight
keep the fakers away
and the hipsters and the leeches from my sight
horrible life
needs a drink or nine
shortly everything’s bright
and the music is neither awful nor sublime
it’s all…

on the other side of the river
swollen and impossible to wade
underneath a canopy of cool dark trees
she’s waiting there for me
see her eyes reflecting in the swiftly moving water
hear her voice merge with the rustle of the leaves…

take a stand against the man
when you’re backed into the corner
bears his teeth and growls
and scratches his claws on the floor
it takes a village to decide
how to count the many ways
to know your wrong from right

there’s hissing on the ground
keep your legs up high
listen for a rustle in the leaves
you can’t trust your eyes alone
it’s not a monster coming out
of a deep hole in the ground
this is real, I tell you
so real
you can’t trust…
a song from a previous band (kill.pop.), i took the metal out of it and made it more dreamy. this is actually the 3rd version of this song that i've played.

Pour vous Tess.
Is there a ghost in these hills?
Something to run from
I've given way to cheap thrills
Problems have just begun
I walk alone, sink like a stone in…
