True in a way
Let every thought come in clear
Then hear from me
A self-indulgent poorhouse
We both agree
We worry on something weak
Stay. Disagree.
I need you in the full whereabouts
All I’m saying
Just one drop of your love keeps…

In a lost scrap of rude time
In the stones pressing long
Where a brave thing
Found the fate’s string
End assertively shown
For a lost cause she’d find
Seeking out naught but truth
Grumbled wasting
For the May’s sting
Seems it brought…

Fool us all
Show the priest

This is a simple song
Here stands a simple issue
You right or wrong
The hurricane will beat you
This isn’t long
The shortness will acquit you

I can feel Saturn pull me closer to her
I can't see her rings, but I know she's there
Am I floating
Am I tethered
Are we moving
Are we still here

In my heart, I know you…

Every day is drifting further off
I can't get you out
Of my head
These feelings come and go all of the time
Sometimes they fade
Then I see you again
Oh I've always loved you and him together
I hope that doesn't change
But I can't keep…

My mood keeps changing, something's broken
Maybe it's you

Maybe you do too
I'll think about messaging you sometimes

I'm too scared to

Love
How do you find me
You manifest in dances
And my dreams
Worn
Worn out the windows
I can't see you
Love anymore
Breathe
In then exhale
When I'm around you
I forget
Tear
Down the flyers
If I can't see them
I'll be okay…

I know
What it's like
To suffocate
When there's not any air
Left outside
Watching daylight leave the atmosphere
As long as you're there
I won't need my lungs
Your wind's whistling to my hum
The cold hydrogen, helium
Poisons me

You were in my dream the other night
We talked for a while
We fell in love
Then I got bored, and left the house
Then I came back, and you were out
Things were rocky from that day
We didn't talk to each other so much
I felt so bad for having…

It's been so long
I can't remember

You're walking away

The dust in her rings
I try not to think about them
I want to float through the clouds on Saturn

This is my first complete song and it still needs lots of polishing. There are a few timing issues I need to resolve and some gaps to put in and omit. I also want to re-record my chorus vocal... but for the sake of getting something submitted…

This is unfinished and may need to be put to something other than a 12-bar blues, although it was fun to play. The words, blues, and voice don't quite go together but since I committed to writing and recording 5 songs in the month of February…

Great band. My brother and I listened to them on KCRW when driving around LA in 2009. Give your leftover change from the ice cream savings away.

Love Is A Realization

Originally I had a Motown idea in mind, and I kept my stomping and clapping, but the song seemed to lend itself to a more spacey-synthey feel, so I ran with it. I also am hinting a tiny (very tiny) bit at Joe Jackson's band's backing vocal styles…

What else can be said of the last 12 months? Everybody wants a piece of my time. Get in line.
The riff came first and I walked around for days just banging it out non-stop. Hammer-ons for fun and pleasure...

Never forget the simple pleasure of just listening to music. I wrote a whole album about it a few years ago called The Lost Art Of Listening. This one's about how a song can simultaneously take you away from the concerns of life, yet make you…

Another one where the riff came first, on the last day of RPM 2020 actually. Before all the craziness struck. I thought to myself "Oh self! That's a good riff! I will need to revisit it next year for RPM 2021." So I did. It also has a call-back…

And now a complete change. I like variety, and this introduces a new feel to the record. Until the mid-section, when the spacey connection returns, though in a subtle way.

I saw her dancing, like the light on the ocean,
