On this beach made of sand and shells
and broken hearts
as with so many things in this life
it ends where it starts
And like the waves that will roll over me
you take away everything that I see
So I walk to the place where the sand
and sky…
"I'll know it when I see it"
Is what she finally said
"If there was some other way
I'd do that instead"
And blindly without question
I followed down that trail
That led into the hidden night
Beyond the parted veil

This is my submission for Akron/Family's "Woody Guthrie's America" Project.
[WOODY PROJECT 2.0](http://akronfamily.com/woodyproject/woody2/Woody_v.2.0/New_Home.html)
A WildGeas and CaveStreet collaboration
some say once upon a time
there was a line
that was never meant to be crossed
if ever that occurred
you might have heard
an innocence would have to be lost
but having crossed that line
I can…
Hey thanks, Jacob! Paul (WildGeas) and I are working on some new stuff even now. Perhaps you're right... I should put this album in a more prominent place on my page. Thanks for listening! :-)

I’ll make my exit on the wind
Nevermore to pretend
That I’m fine
Yeah, I’m good, so good
At doin’ everything I should
To convince you
That I’m okay for today
An’ I won’t crawl out of my skin
I’ll just pretend
Some days…
super cool track!
too early to drink but too late to have coffee:)
as for the sounds i think i will just try to recreate my own sins i just bought a Blue HD microphone...anyway this was delight for my ears...thanks for uploading.
@Terrapin - I do like to double (or more)the vocal tracks... On this track it's an acoustic guitar, an electric through a line6 swell effect, and an old yamaha analog keyboard....

just a few random weird alien sounds or "smart intelligent words" coming from a wisdom person...My voice is garbage that's why i stick to music lol
but whatever you have and want to share would be cool cause I'm going to need a few.
Tank you

I guess I knew this would happen. Talk about creating one's own reality Sheeeeesh. End of the month and my pen has been re-fueled and I added some vox to this one, plus some lead guitar, and a bit of synth strings. I also took a shot at some…
I keep writing songs about communism, for some reason. I thought it was slightly amusing to discover that Mashino actually IS an industrial town. Sounds like "Machine". Get it? Get it??
I love this little PSYCHEDELIC piece so much, I'd steal it if I could... but everytime I try to get ahold of it, it wriggles out of my grasp.... so it goes
Cave Street posted a track recently, their contribution to the Woody Guthrie Project, organised by Akron Family.

I wanted to take a shot at this too, so here's my demo. It was really just half…
Ever since i heard Cave Street's Creator Protector Destroyer (from their 2010 RPM album) run from that song back into the opening didj of Onion Bell (the first track) i wanted to put the lyrics to that pulsing energy, and today i had time to give…
You're a fantastic songwriter, I'm looking forward to hearing all of your stuff.... would really like to see lyrics for the songs that have them! (Love the change just before two minutes in.)
I made a song out of the fable "The Boy and the Schoolmaster" by Jean De La Fontaine, that french writer from the 17th century.
And here's the story:
"
A boy, that frolicked on the banks of Seine,
Fell in, and would have found a watery grave…
For this I wanted to create some longing sounding atmosphere. To create the (somewhat annoying) guitar part in the second half I used an ebow.
"
you stand a long time at the door
observe the lighting on the floor
you are not welcome anymore
no…

i like the double tracked vocals, i use the same trick a lot. how much of your instrumentation is synthesized?
just a few random weird alien sounds or "smart intelligent words" coming from a wisdom person...My voice is garbage that's why i stick to music lol but whatever you have and want to share would be cool cause I'm going to need a few. Tank you

Way to shred those vocal chords, Dave! Get out of the way, Lemmy!
I love this little PSYCHEDELIC piece so much, I'd steal it if I could... but everytime I try to get ahold of it, it wriggles out of my grasp.... so it goes
