Resonant Sunset. (lyrics) You don’t belong (uh huh) and You never will (mmhmm) See? We were cursed from birth (yeah!) And that left a large hole to fill (uh huh) But, Man, Look at that Sunset! It’s beyond words to describe. Anyway, I Feel You Resonate. I Feel You Resonate. Aw FUCK IT! SCREW IT ALL TO HELL! (mmhmm?) It’s me and my fretting hand, Who cares? Who lives to tell? (uh huh) I make no sense but I can change a […]
I can’t control the weather or people’s perceptions. Red in your face, flushed, embarrassed. Are you trying to give me a hint? The silent treatment, a sinking feeling, emotional baggage, weight on your shoulder. Liar. Why are you closing yourself off? Flesh fire hard mentality, Everyone needs someone to follow. She doesn’t believe a broken boy with his bent flute. Self-loathing and anger directed outward. Rage. Muttering under my breath, “I don’t know you ,but you have shifty eyes and look like […]
There is Light and Dark. Extreme Violence and Total Peace. Love + Hate Life + Death Straight + Gay Humiliation + Pride Calm + Chaos Safe + Unsafe Create to Destroy Love to Conquer To Stand or To Run To Fight or Fright To Strive for the Positive is the Same as To Live in Darkness. Please Accept That All are Aspects of the Same Thing, and No-Thing Matters Nothing Matters Is To Become Grey.
Looking at the negative. All so dark. Draining. Powerless Death. When you think that your best friends are your worst enemies, All that you are, is hated and attacked. There is no safety. No protection. And you may be dying. What does that mean? What does it matter if no one hears your song and no one cares? Words spat into a pit. How do I focus? I am choosing this? What does it matter if I gave up marriage or old […]
Heaven. (lyrics) Everyone is trying to get to the bar. The name of the bar, the bar is called Heaven. The band in Heaven plays my favorite song. They play it once again, they play it all night long. Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens. Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens. There is a party, everyone is there. Everyone will leave at exactly the same time. Its hard to imagine that nothing at all could be so exciting, […]
This Old Town. Living free is gaining on me Can’t keep ahead of my dreams My relief turned out a thief Smooth as rocks in the stream This old town is a sad affair You be glad you’re not there It ties your hands It spikes your drink I’d say more, but I can’t think Lazy Jim took a bottle with him Tried to flag down a train Left a note Couldn’t read what he wrote A light came on in my […]
Questions and Answers. (lyrics) Does a Bird Need a Reason to Sing It’s Song? Does a Rose Need a Reason to Flower And Bloom? The Question is the Answer. It’s as Plain as Day. The Question is the Answer and You are Here Today. Life Needs No Reason. It’s Existence is Enough. Life Needs No Reason. Being is Reason Alone. The Question is the Answer. It’s as Plain as Day. The Question is the Answer and You are Here Today. The Meaning […]
End of the Line. Hope to see everyone at the End of the Line! (lyrics) Well it’s all right, riding around in the breeze Well it’s all right, if you live the life you please Well it’s all right, doing the best you can Well it’s all right, as long as you lend a hand You can sit around and wait for the phone to ring (End of the Line) Waiting for someone to tell you everything (End of the Line) Sit […]
the Waiting. (lyrics) Don’t it feel like heaven right now Don’t it feel like something from a dream Yeah I’ve never known anything quite like this Don’t it feel like tonight might never be again We know better than to try and pretend No one could’a ever told me ’bout this I said yeah yeah The waiting is the hardest part Every day you see one more card You take it on faith, you take it to the heart The waiting is […]
Tainted Love. I am not the only one -besides Marilyn Manson – who was alive in 1984 when Soft Cell released this song on vinyl from across the Great Pond. (lyrics approximately) Sometimes I feel I’ve got to Run away, I’ve got to Get away from the pain you drive into the heart of me The love we share Seems to go nowhere And I’ve lost my light For I toss and turn, I can’t sleep at night Once I ran to […]
Roll Over Beethoven! Here is my dirty swamp rock version of a classic tune. I should have changed the lyrics to, “Roll Over Chuck Berry and tell Tom Petty the News!” (lyrics) I’m gonna write a little letter, gonna mail it to my local DJ It’s a rockin’ rhythm record I want my jockey to play Roll Over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again today You know, my temperature’s risin’ the jukebox blows a fuse My heart’s beatin’ rhythm and my soul […]
Working Class Hero. Tried to spice this up a little bit. Adding an octave guitar part, and a bit of percussion. I changed just a few lines, which I will emphasize. Can you tell which ones? (lyrics) As soon as you’re born they make you feel small By giving you no time instead of it all ‘Til the pain is so big you feel nothing at all A working class hero is something to be A working class hero is something to […]
