sometimes i think it comes easy
take it for granted
the way it’s supposed to be
for me
and then
or always
there’s a bit more
to be done
to take easy and go
pick up the litter
polish the edges
give up the glitter
stop pretending
not mind race
and remember at the same time
it’s not for you
it’s not for you
or you
it’s for
me
not left behind
the last desire
categorically
omnipotent
less worry
aye
less to stress
el worldo
mine-o
who wants
sweet treats
can we compete
for a piece
least
gets least
let’s redefine it
again
waste a night
let it slip
and never regret
it
just a place to stow away
just a place to go
sleeping like a baby
in the loft
tossed
turned
make me write it down
later
now
no idea what this
is
the studio
is very hot tonight
end.
and the hours in dayo
want some more
can i get some
make me make it
in the night
lives
change
origin
my old guitar
taught me sin ce
when
it was dawn
cold crosses
glinting in the torch light
world ness
on stand by
in the momentous occasion
of a moment
any
like we always will
if only you
do
do you
there is this idea of a wall of sound especially just like a hundred lush cellos
and a pulsing pulse
like blood under skin
that i can’t quite capture
but try
let her
go
her way
go your way
now
untangle all these chords
wow
positively absolutely
purple
days
we can turn into
them
and push
and go the ways
who wants
to look
when
no one else
is lookin?
how
do
ya
do
why lie
i can’t walk straight
lines
i get
inflated
on the
very promise
of the next
golden field
listen to this
600 times straight
in side
of this
is something
live
could be
re birth
‘
..//
here’s a thing i made
to accompany video
so
choose your own adventure
ok?
pull it off
one day at a time
sir, ma’am
whatever
here now
a hammer hammering
on whatever
dog sleeping
or whatever
things
going
on and on
that’s herenow
make a decision
life
or more
life!
calmer now
that all the things i need to
pull together
don’t need me to
pull them together
float fall through
particulate booms
particularly true
window
window
in the wall
here the castle
can fall
re seige
ok
well
here we are
where
was
it
all
a
dream
back on the scene
frisky and clean
first and a remind
we will maybe get behind
as we move through air
between here
we have to go back
to the island
we have to go back
until then
here’s a
thing
get stuck
walking into wall
like videogame
turn corner
ok?
this way
you know
the way
pause
reflect
read
react
redact
inable
enable
unable
unstable
stable
boy
get
that
run
goin’
and
just
go
it’s too dang hot
in this here studio
give
take
let some days
do the same
to you
Ok, so, full disclosure here
I wanted this to be
so much more
but
it is what
it is
And yes my mom
My Mom
is indeed why I even play music
(beyond the obvious duh)
who has been to every concert of mine she is within 4+ hours of
who listened to dvorak incessantly while i was born
who always has the classical station on
who drove to idaho with the river on repeat for
however many days
who never once
made me think twice
about being what/who i am
as musician
person who does this
I’m so overwhelmed with gratitude
and love for her.
I honestly thought
Oh
I’d do a whole suite
or two
but this will have
to do
for now
just a composition or a feeling
or no none of that
really just me sitting down again
on another day
and she is why
i am able
and want to
make songs
in the first place
misanthrope
in days
tryin’ ta
self distruct
i tell ya
in daze
want to make it pas t
the waves
and also
just get salt
just get that grit
gritty
pearl
pearl seekr
wish keepr
collide
this dream
and this divide
fortunate son
wish ing
on
this
kaleidoscopic
divide
which one of me
do i see
who cares
you?
we’ll see
let’s get closer
to
…
someone please
let me do the music
for an 80s movie
thing
here’s where
the statues
hide
in the statue garden
rung up one
i see from here
every where
i have
stopped to take a sip yay
wishing for my ship yay
to come along
and hear d
that prophet’s song
forgot to follow along
yet there she is
just now close
on horizon like
whisp of
whale
marching on
can some time go
somewhere quiet
some time ago
somewhere quiet
made it
on a day
where floating away
seemed good
wanted to just record this uke, this bass uke but of course, i got lavish. i always do that. oh well! i like the idea of falling through a trance at some point in some future when i hear this some day.
i haz none
i don’t!
just trying to pry
loose one
good
one
oh joy
yr so inside
each moment tight
how would i know?
whether to look
or not try
go forth into it
quoth four in so as
you cross your heart
miss
led
mix the best with the best
and the red
letter
with the said and said
coy you say
oh boy
you say
we’ve got it right here
stuck inside our heads
this treasure
lead
