Well…. I’ve started adding lyrics to videos- what do you think? Some say this is good & some say it is bad.

5 Bright Stars- that I’ve never seen before
Step by step- walking on the checkerboard, you know
Some things get easier with time
Blood flows much easier when I know the blood is mine.
5 Dark Knights- sleeping underneath the skies
Toss and turn- thinking of the way you died, I can’t
Describe what is left of me more delicate than a lace
Hold me in your hand then let me slip into the wind and watch me fly.
Sometimes the sky is filled with eyes.
5 Small Boys- I saw them inside a dream
Step by step- but the checkerboard was green, you know
They never cried they were a bubble in the air
Flying in the wind they never knew that you were there all of the time.
They were oblivious to the feeling of your eyes.
Step by step- walking to the rabbit hole
And there I will forget, slip into a black so fine
That you were there with me when every wind was filled with time.
We were oblivious to the feeling of their eyes.
Fly away in a little bit
Fly away in a cloud of strings
Like the sun on an icicle
You found your pair of wings.
When the time wasn’t over yet
When the time was ready to begin
When my heart was red lying in a box
Waiting for the sticking pin.
There you go, I know your eyes
Fire with a flash of pain
Feel it burn, feel it end
What is the name of this thing that remains?
Fly away in a little bit
Fly away in a cloud of strings
Like the sun on an icicle
You found your pair of wings.
There you go, the hand that wears the glove of velvet red
Like a woman, like a child, is the man afraid of his own death
Like a woman, like a child- the man who will never fight
Flickering beneath the sky and dying that same night.
Fly away in a little bit
Fly away in a cloud of strings
Like the sun on an icicle
You found your pair of wings.
There you go, the man I know whose legs are far too thin
Find the box and open it to push your stick pin in
Fire I know, death I know, I also know your eyes
Like a woman, like a child- the man who never lies.
Fly away in a little bit
Fly away in a cloud of strings
Like the sun on an icicle
You found your pair of wings.
Father, I need to sit.
There’s all of this blood down here- nobody will tell me what it is.
Father, what is the time?
There’s all of this blood down here- nobody will tell me if it’s mine.
You built a tower in my heart just like a paradise
I laid me back to watch so warm in the sand.
Clouds flew above me light flashing out of their eagle eyes
Now I can feel those cold things starting again.
Father, where are my hands?
I need to touch my eyes- something tells me they are hurting me again.
Father, am I lying in bed?
Why are the curtains drawn? What is this thing upon my head?
You built a tower in a tower in my heart just like a paradise
I laid me back to watch so warm in the sand.
Sun shimmered on my body like I was a pegasi
But now I can feel those cold things starting again.
Father, why are the curtains drawn?
So many things to do. I can’t remain in here too long.
Father, I need to ask
Of all the things you’ve done, which ones are the ones that you’d take back?
You built a world around my heart just like a paradise
I laid me back to watch so warm in your hand.
Cities they swirled around me like they was a race of lights
But now I can feel those cold things starting again.
All of the men in the world lined up side by side
A bundle of twigs they wait for the flame.
Dance by the fire and you will realize
A burning man will never feel the pain.
AI art is a decent choice aesthetically but I don’t use any AI in my music, or writing for that matter, and it would make me feel sick if people thought it was an AI creation, generated by the click of a button, when in reality I’m slaving away away surrounded by black wires…
And fwiw the beautiful brand new PlushMellow in this photo is available for adoption. A $20 adoption fee includes shipping. One of my first gigs when I was desperately trying to survive was finding good homes for stuffed animals. I’ve learned I have to think bigger to make it in this world but I still need to find homes for the few I have left.
Fly away in a little bit
Fly away in a cloud of strings

In case you are in the mood to share money…
sing and gleam, mountain stream
I know where you flow
falling down, losing ground
crash the world below
lose the dream
of purity you wanted me to bring
lose the dream
there’s nothing sacred now
something fails, yet still goes on
I was in the box, but now it’s gone
like a swirl, like a wave
changing me inside
suck me down, underneath
this is where I’ll hide
on and on
to bluer things you wanted me to bring
on and on
your arrow in my hand
something dies, yet still goes on
I was in the box, but now it’s gone
waterfall over me
holding up my hands
blue and cold, touching me
I don’t understand
how I feel
I waited for you everyday alone
standing there
there’s nothing certain now
losing form, yet flowing on
I was in the box, but now its gone
And just in case you enjoy giving people money…
Come home take my heart out of its box
Lie down let the voices talk
And they tell me to survive
It’s good to be alive
So feed the fire inside
Money is the green light, don’t you know?
When it’s gone you gotta go
I know
Arms- a place no one can stay
Love is a word- words fly away
Learn to remain
And I’ll be proud of you babe
See the world in all its lies
Learn to see through different eyes
Driving past men in your car
Can you see through their charms?
They heal, they harm
Money is the green light, don’t you know?
When it’s gone you gotta go
I know
Arms- a place no one can stay
Love is a word- words fly away
Learn to remain
And I’ll be proud of you babe
Learn to love the fire inside
Do whatever you do to survive
When they lead you to the cave
You can act like it’s okay
But just remember- they lie
Learn to take the money then you run
Down by the river to the setting sun
The world a place no one can stay
Everybody’s words will fly away
Learn what remains
And I’ll be proud of you
I’ll be so proud of you
I’ll be proud of you babe
Stars shine, tracking time
Watching us they gleam.
Warning do not live inside a dream.
So stern you check your watch.
Light your cigarette
Look at me: Are you ready yet?
We could chase the the happy things that disappear
Running like a stream
Watch me now and see the way I follow them
Dying in your dream
Running through the green green grass
Dandelions bloom
A universe just inside a room
Draw the curtain burgundy I’m staring at the stars
You come close hold me in your arms.
Pour wine it’s your time, light your cigarette
Whatever you want is what you’ill get
We can chase the the happy things that disappear
Running like a stream
Watch me now and see the way I follow them
Dying in your dream
Running through the green green grass
Dandelions bloom
A universe just inside a room
Pour your wine it’s your time your gone.
All the things you wanted will go on and on
Leave the room, watch your step, find your light
Stepping out like darkness into night.
But everytime you leave I feell so cold inside
How can that be right?
Turn my head & think about another day.
Running through the night
Running down a green green path
Dandelions bloom
A universe just inside a room.
Did we chase the happy things that disapear
Running like a stream
Did you see the way that I
Drowning in your dream
All the starts align into a cube
A universe born just inside this room
Stepping there so easily a dream inside your mind
Then lit his cigarette
I knew so soon
Cigarette shine across the room
Pour your wine its time then your gone.
Pour your wine, it’s your time, light your cigarette
All the things you wanted are the things that you will get
All the stars seem to aligning forming in a cube
A universe just inside this room.
Pour your wine it’s your time your gone.
All the things you wanted will go on and on
Leave the room, watch your step, find your light
Stepping like a adfe into the night.
Even with you here i feel so cold inside
How can that be right?
Turn my head to dream about another day.
Running through the night
Running down a green green path
Dandelions bloom
A universe just inside this room.
light your cigarette
When you leave the room I will forget
Nothing in this world has touched me yet.
