This is a rough cut, but I like it. Here are the lyrics:

TOMORROW WILL BE YOU
It’s been a long time since I saw you

I’m at a loss for words
But when I heard the news
I went straight to your room

There’s no point in looking back

There’s no point in staying mad
There…read more

Lyrics:

When I was a young boy
I never knew what it meant
to be unloved
When I was a young man
I never knew what it meant
to be undone

Now I’m here
Longing for you
But you are gone
What should…read more

Lyrics and Music by yours truly, Nick Plagakis

Damn it’s cold, as I exit this road
Time is now to intoxicate the soul

…Someone stupid who is unaware that their mouth is gaping open, often taking in gallons of air and spewing their own dry, bacteria rotten maw into your clean air in your vicinity…

And a great quote from Stranger Things on Netflix…..

I played this song at the Minnesota Association of Songwriters last month and asked them to critique it.

They said it had too many chord changes.

Some solo guitar playing I did ovwr a backing track about a year ago for fun.

With music by Geoffrey Armes (Instrumental Grievances).

“SUNDAY” is one of 11 songs based loosely on an article:

This acoustic song is a drunk nihilistic escapade with a surprise ending; so if you like to howl, join along and do your best “ahhoooo..”

Lyrics:

At full moon, I was drunk as a skunk

On a dark dirt road, I stumbled home,
But I got…read more

This song was inspired by a long walk….
Lyrics:

Down by the river, down by the shore we go
The moon above cast a beautiful glow
We walked around talking through the night
I can’t help but think how it felt right

Hey Constance, don’t you feel the essence
Hey Constance, let’s go the distance…read more

You brandish posters, they point a gun
Scrawled on the pavement with blood and tears
