This is one of 3 "Auction" songs, written for yearly fundraising auctions at a UU fellowship I used to belong to. The winners for this first year, I don't remember exactly what they requested. I think they let me pretty much do what I wanted…

life is always better with a little bit of tension. i think that we will make good friends because my life’s complex and you’re already taken.

you take me as is you don't mind a work in progress you say my flaws make me attractive you take me as is (thank you wikipedia)

I wrote it for a friend of a friend. It was originally about a woman, but although I liked the music a lot, the words didn't quite satisfy me. On a whim, I changed a pronoun here and there, and the song became a story.

i'm not afraid of being alone i just like the company in a forest with no one around tears are dry and wounds don't bleed

cheating is the main way bad communicators chose to end it and since we’re not taught to talk it is an epidemic

This is an updated vocal of the song I wrote during FAWM/RPM. I *had* thought that this was an improvement but when I listened to it later that night, it ended up just sounding like a *chorus* of flat-ness.

i sat and i thought and i'm blocked how did anyone ever put up with my arrogance i sat and i thought and i'm blocked i hope you got something positive out of this

I was thinking about Haiti... i don't know what to say i don't know how to feel when i'm way over here and things are going well my house is standing still my friends are still alive the smell of spring is in the air and i just can't connect…

Another free jam, stream of consciousness type thang

One of only two tracks on the album where loops were used more than instruments, or at least as much.
