On one hand, one of my most horrid recordings, but on another hand, one of my most interesting. Warning – the second half of the song gets rather creepy. Have fun!

WALKIN' BLUES
Where were you
Saturday night
When I was in jail because I was in an awful fight?
You were roaming' the streets with a man they call “The Knife”
Where were you
Last Tuesday eve'
When I was at home alone? (And man…

Label what you will
Untitled leave this I
Don’t deny I am
Forsaking the asking of why
Perhaps lacking the aching to why
This Here Now, it is
And thus is what am I
Willing what you will

Another pitiful recording, this one featuring my first attempt at rapping – if ya want to call it that!

They want to know if I’m for real but I don’t give a…

I’m not one to repeat a rumor… so listen close the first time.
GOSSIP
Legends in the warehouse
Gossip in the halls
Rumors in the office
Ears upon the walls
Hiding round the corner
Straining for each sound
Car-pool to the lunchroom…

Clearly one of my poorer recordings.
In the Dark
Want to want me, try to taunt me
Keep me quiet, keep me in the dark
Like to hit me, try to get me
Figure out me when I’m in the dark
Will alert me, would convert me
Witness to me how…

Combined words of homeless men across America the night of the Winter Solstice in 2010 when there was a full moon, a lunar eclipse, and a meteor shower. Baby grand piano performed by Starry Nightmoth.

My contract with Jennifer Rose.
MAKE IT THROUGH
I don’t have too much to give
I don’t have too long to live
I just want to be your friend
Can I spend my years with?
Can I share my tears with you?
I will love until the end

More GEM-style Blues.
NASTY LITTLE GIRL
Nasty little girl, standing on the corner
Up against the light, up against the night
Nasty little world weighing on your shoulder
Turning tricks again, giving up the fight
Naughty little child…

One of my personal favorite recordings from the 52 song MYTHOPOETICA demo collection, even though there’s a sound quality issue (the bass had a bit of a buzz). This was my first time using a wammy bar – I liked it!

Uhm… not my worse.
SOLIDARITY
Wading in the marshes of reality
Pacing to the songs we sing
Fearing those who alter our mentality
Running from the pain they bring
Hiding in the shelters of our fantasy
Someplace we can rest our…

This demo recording turned out particularly well, especially when compared to how most of my MYTHOPOETICA recordings sound. The lead guitar employs an Eastern Folk scale and style of picking, greased with GEM-style Blues butter.

Blues. My way of playing “Rollin' in My Sweet Baby’s Arms,” ‘cuz I’m a Soul man. See the Soul-patch? Dig. Be cool, cats, and stay dry!

Political Folk song, predicting a grim tomorrow, scribed in an esoteric fashion.

Psychedelic Folk song about growing up in the red light district, (not a biography… exactly)

ADAM’S PLAGUE
And those not killed by Adam’s Plague
Repented not the work at hand
Their search for truth was strangely vague
They spread their lies across the land
They clung to things of stone and wood
Which cannot see nor hear…

AFTERMATH
Living in the aftermath
Of when the palace fell
Looking on the ashes now
From when my life went all to Hell
Listen to the hangman’s march
He’s come to free my soul
Humming to my final tune
Before my heart heads down…

DO YOU WISH
There’s nothing I can say and nothing I can do
To win your forgiveness for not being true.
So, do your eyes see red while my heart is blue?
Well, I crossed the line and there’s no going back.
Yes, I earned your hate and…

EPIPHANY
Life, it is but a dream
In the back of my mind
I can plainly see
What’s in the future
What’s in it was for me
Feel revolutions
Surging through my soul
I can feel a spirit
That is hard and cold
In the back of my…

GONNA SIT AND ROT
Gonna sit and breathe and try to understand
How everything I suffer I’m clutching in my hand
Got to let them go at least I hope I can
Gonna sit and breathe and try to let them go
That’s everything I’m clutching I’m dropping…
