In our everyday lives, we hardly take into account the specific details of our surroundings; when we wake up, where we drink our coffee, our routine drive to work. When we lose someone, those details suddenly reveal themselves as if they had been waving at us the whole time.

Healing In Pink

Do you remember a specific moment in your life when knew you broke a personal barrier? Some people call them revelations.

I just remember being mind blown from the recent trip out west. The perspectives I had on life changed drastically as I slowly tried growing out of my little box. I had a mic and laptop, guitar and a 200 year-old house. The room was bright pink. Whoever modeled it had a strong affinity for the color, but it reached me strangely and awkwardly where I needed it most. So I set up my equipment, recorded stomps on the old wooden floor planks, wrapped a rubber band around my guitar strings, let the dog inside, and started. Was it the color? The company? The age?

Oklahoma. His              dates are unclear:                       perhaps 1820 to 1880.

On Raglan Road

By | ALL CONTENT, ALL SONGS, AMBIENT, ELECTRONIC, FOLK, INDIE, INTERPRETATIONS, MUSIC, NOSTALGIC, POETRY, RAD, VOCAL

Dug deep into my family past.

On Raglan Road on an autumn day I met her first and knew
That her dark hair would weave a snare that I might one day rue;
I saw the danger, yet I walked along the enchanted way,
And I said, let grief be a fallen leaf at the dawning of the day.

On Grafton Street in November we tripped lightly along the ledge
Of the deep ravine where can be seen the worth of passion’s pledge,
The Queen of Hearts still making tarts and I not making hay –
O I loved too much and by such and such is happiness thrown away.

I gave her gifts of the mind I gave her the secret sign that’s known
To the artists who have known the true gods of sound and stone
And word and tint. I did not stint for I gave her poems to say.
With her own name there and her own dark hair like clouds over fields of May

On a quiet street where old ghosts meet I see her walking now
Away from me so hurriedly my reason must allow
That I had wooed not as I should a creature made of clay –
When the angel woos the clay he’d lose his wings at the dawn of day.

Dug deep into my family past.

On Raglan Road on an autumn day I met her first and knew

I get my vitamins through the guitar strings. Fuck injections. Also, when someone forces you to make a slick recording, go in the other room with a cheap microphone and record your own version behind the blood-sucker’s back.

Mortar and Stone

By | ACOUSTIC, ALL CONTENT, ALL SONGS, FOLK, INDIE, MUSIC, PHOTOGRAPHY, RAW, VOCAL | No Comments

I met a girl on the beach one day, like a breeze was swept my way. And although the air was filth – although my eyes were filled with sand – I let her in to stay. Still, I let her in.

So I used the sand to build a wall. A beautiful, giant wall. It towers high above – it towers high above them all. I am safe behind this wall. I can’t see over this wall.

For years, I’ve waited here alone behind mortar and stone. I count the steps that I can’t take. So I sit alone and wait. So how could she love me? I don’t even love me.

I want to break all of the walls that I have built around myself. Let all the people in that I have kept out and breathe again.

I met a girl on the beach one day, like a breeze was swept my way. And although…
