RPM 2k22
never need to convince myself
I always knew
surrounded by you
I am at peace where I am
can you say it too
the past is a clue
stop waiting, for things to change
just change, anything that you want
change, anything that you…
This year's submission for the RPM Challenge (RPMchallenge.com). Yes, it's just one song this year, and yes, it's short. The simpler I try to make it, the more difficult it becomes. Just like relationships. On the plus side, it's one of the…
I thought that's what the other space was for. Ha! Well, okay, see the above space. The song itself doesn't have enough substance to it for two spaces worth of words. Come back next year. Better yet, check over my older work, specifically the Earth Highway album. That stuff was good, because I wasn't overthinking things back then.
Pointed sextant toward the north star
True direction is where you are
Roads of Rome lead to elsewhere
Can we go, no echo, no opinion
Unreal show, on your phone, no one’s watching
A din of quiet desperation
Soothing blanket fort vacation…
Pointed sextant toward the north star
True direction is where you are
Roads of Rome lead to elsewhere
Can we go, no echo, no opinion
Unreal show, on your phone, no one’s watching

Soothing blanket fort vacation…
In the fading light, I compose a line
And then tongue tied tangled down upside
Unbroken
Unspoken
Better than the words I would have stumbled over
If you read my eyes, you could catch my vibe
Then I wouldn’t have to die inside
I came awake to watch the sun drop
Counting fortunes in the stars
hope for aurora borealis
Or freeze inside just where we are
I don’t know what you know
There is no Rosetta Stone
We left the party in the garden
I’d stay, but couldn…
RPM 2022. I finished a song.. does that count?
Well the early bird
Catches the worm
Eats it up
And shits it out
Onto the lawn
And into the dirt
Where the worms crawl
And use the soil to form
To be eaten once more
By the early birds…
When the shivers go right down your spine like a river
Or the whiplash from turning your head to the coast
Brace, the stormfront breaching outside,
Every tree, bends like a dragons tail
We lean our bodies toward the headwinds
turning our…
This is a 42 minute track for sleeping or relaxing. It's a combination of 12 string guitar, mandolin, synthesizers, and even some Elven speech. Thank you for checking this out.

Can you feel it, in your teeth
It is hiding, smoldering
In the shadows, of your mind
Where there's smoke there's surely fire
Are you evil, in disguise
Feel the acid, start to rise
Ever shameful, hide the guilt
Always lapping at the flames…
Cross my heart, and hope to live forever
If we’re wishing we might as well jump
Bittersweet, sepia tones rolling down the canyon,
Turning my head
So long this long refrain
So long we’ll meet again
Flying past though leave no trails…

I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too.
For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…
I saw your comments on my site. Thanks. It sounds like you’ve got this recording process figured out. I’m still learning as I go. Thank God for YouTube. 😎

Awesome mate.. and actually kinda handy advice and encouragement in song form.

So much whimsy I almost can't take it but this is made with such craft. Loved a listen. Took me on a wee trip through some lovely earth.
