Birds sing songs that
Wake the dreamers
From their sorrowful soirée
Cryin', bye bye, sweet fried chicken
And the platter
Glides away
In the moonlight
In the moonlight
We don't hear, but
Water running
Down the stream…

You can roll the dice
You can read the gospel
Or just balance on the knife
Kicking rocks like cigarettes
You both used to like
Now it’s all just plastic
I could use some advice
And you could use me
Anytime you like
Dead man’s paradise…

Maybe I’m someone
Or maybe I’m not
A tree falls in the forest
And the roots start to rot
And my lady she loves me
Whether I like it or not
I’ve got all that I need
I’ve got all that I’ve got
It’s too early for peaches
And it’s too late…

You were so clever
You had us all in your hands
We’re seeing thru you
You never had any plans
It could have been better
You never gave us the chance
You’re being untrue
But baby it’s all in the dance
What’s wrong with that

On the other side Of the planet
I just heard the news
I was served something so tragic
Reaching for my muse
On the other side of my attention span
So abused
I said “hope it’s another lie
Like me and all my friends are used to”
It all…

Darlin I been dreamin about the moon on the prairie
The way our voices carry, the song on the radio
Arm out the window, dipper in the sky
On a solstice night
Darlin I been dreamin about the breeze on the water
The mountain and her daughter…

Here’s day one of my d2! knew I would have very little time, so I hummed a melody on my way to work, worked out the lyrics on my breaks, and tried to make an accompaniment when I got home!
If I had a second chance
To make it all feel right…

Hares on the Mountain
O Sally my dear it's you I'd be kissin'
She smiled and replied "You don't know what you're missin"
If all the young men were hares on the mountain
many young girls would grab guns and go huntin
If the young…

I was in deep at second, my heels in the outfield - full count
No one left out on the bases, familiar faces, the heat breaks a cloud
Hands red from the clay dirt as I held up my glove to my faaaaaaace
It smells just the way I remember, the…

Sunday morning, no such luck
My head is dizzy, it’s bright as fuck I’m dying
I make my way to south French broad
Lumbering wondering where she’s gone or something
I see Sam he’s in the same shape as me
Bundled in funneling misery by the…

I wish I was the moon in the sky
O I wish I was the moon in the sky
If I's the moon in the sky
I'd be floating in your eye
Wish I was the moon in the sky

O I wish I was the song on your lips

I’m light and love
Until I go broke
I’m nothing but smiles
TIL I’m on my last smoke
And if the suns not in my eyes
I could tell you a joke
“It only gets better? Let’s leave it to hope”
I’m a fair weather vain
TIL the rain makes me…

Yes…we’re TRYING to do an AC~DC thing here.
The song was written by our lovable drummer Matt, but we all had fun working on it. (The Angus-style guitar lick was mine.)
As always, the song is introduced to the band, kicked around and recorded…

I saw jack-in-the-pulpit and I knew I belonged
And I felt every sermon and I held every song
O The trees creaked and shifted as they turned and dropped their leaves
And I pulled an empty bottle and I held it to the breeze.
Oh this one life…

This is another song for my Hyperphantasia album, dealing with dreams, daydreams, fantasies, and imagination. The inspiration was a challenge in the Deluge synth discord group to make a song using a single kit. I compiled a bunch of sounds from…

Everyone is writing songs inside their heads
Waking up from sleeping in their unmade beds
I cleared out space in springtime to make room for the fall
I wrote you words of kindness, but I won’t speak them at all
The kudzu choked the hillside…

I wrote this track pretty long time ago, but then redid parts of it for a live setting so I could play it on my digitakt. I haven't played out live in a bit so I tried practicing it today...

Accidental synthwave. I hated this at first, but it's not bad. I kind of feel like this is me, in the 80s, driving home from work along palm tree lined high way. I had a bad day writing fortran for my job and I'm burnt out.

One Newport left in the pack
I know that we ain't coming back
Waving goodbye to my friends
Beginnings can feel like the end
Thrusters go off underneath
Vibrations under my feet
Can't help but think of that thrill
Card in my spokes as…
