LYRICS
In these days, we’re all chasing rays (we’re all chasing rays)
In the fray of the day, we’re chasing rays

Searching high and low
Where did the day light go

There should have daylight savings
But, we kept shaving and shaving and shaving
Until there was barely splintered sunlight left

It’s not alright when there’s nothing left

It there’s a shadow in the way
There’s a way to flesh out a ray
What do you say
Let’s step out into the light
Alight? Alright!

In these days, we’re all chasing rays (we’re all chasing rays)
In the fray of the day, we’re chasing rays

ABOUT THE SONG
A / D / A
Bm7 / G / E

Written and recorded on November 9, 2012 in Chester County, PA. It was the first sunny day and warm enough to play guitar outside in a long time. It was also the first nice day since the start of daylight savings. So… I wanted to catch the last rays as the sun started to set. Lack of sunlight tends do cause depression; therefore, I suggest you try catching rays.

LYRICS
You better run n’ get your daughter
You better run n’ get your son
You better run n’ get your mother
Before darkness follows the setting sun

’cause the End Of Times is looming near
The wretched are dooming in fear

You better run n’ get your daughter
You better run n’ get your son
You better run n’ get your mother
Before darkness follows the setting sun

There’s a bend in time we’re zooming clear
The righteous are bounding. How queer?

You better run n’ get your daughter
You better run n’ get your son
You better run n’ get your mother
Before darkness follows the setting sun

The Start Of Times is looming near
Leaving hate far behind… in the rear

LYRICS
You can stand here hoping the world will pass you by
Or, you can choose a better place to move the human race

CHORUS
If you want to get from here
You want to get to there
You have change direction somehow

You can follow the herd trying to stray under every black cloud in the sky
Or, you can choose a better place to move the human race

Chorus

You can sit in your rocker hoping the world will pass you by
Or, can lead the human race to move to a better place

Chorus
You can believe all you’ve heard from the herd… never asking why
Or, can lead the human race to move to a better place

Chorus
Favor the path that is clear
Listen to your instincts. Be aware!
There’s no better time nor place. Here! Now!

D A N G E R

LYRICS
Water dripping from a faucet
Try to dodge the raindrops without getting wet
Unordered as the system may appear to be
It’s only because you’re too close to see clearly

Um, though it might appear random
To call it such would dumb
It’s much more complicated than that
Better put on my thinking hat

A butterfly flaps it wings
Causing devastating things
Showing up as tornadoes in Kansas
Your smallest intention effects all of us

Smoke rising up into the air
A most fascinating thing as a smoke-ring
Crystals forming where it was bare
Call it a gem. Call it rare

LYRICS
The key is under lock and key
All modes of communication fail
Like a jaguar chasing a monkey
We’re taking on water… better bail!

The key still under lock and key
All routs of transportation fail
Like a jaguar chasing a monkey
Start walking on water… we need the Holy Grail

The key is locked on the inside
Drowning… respiration will fail
Like a poacher shoots the jaguar for a hide
Start treading treading water… it’s your tail

Like the monkey chases the weasel
Like the jaguar chases the monkey
Like the poacher chases the jaguar

All around the mulberry bush
The monkey chased the weasel;
The monkey thought ’twas all in fun,
Pop! goes the weasel.

Hurricane Sandy — Tree Fell on Electric Lines in Montgomery County, PA

LYRICS
Did that tree just try to kill me?

Many dead… mostly from trees.

Geeze.. giving them disease… creatin a deadly breeze.

Using limb to clobber him from limb to limb
Crushing homes and transportation
Because of our past deviation violation

The fall of the trees
Due to the human disease
The revenge of the woods
Due to too many would-of’s, could-of’s and shoulds
Due to too many wood-of shoulds

Posted on by admin

You know it must be going over and over in her head

If she ever comes to realize… what she did
Then, you know it’s gotta be going over and over and over
In her head

Must be hard to live with yourself
Over and over in head… over and over and over again
As long as you’re living a life of sin

Over and over again
When you’re livin’ a life of sin… livin’ a life of sin… livin’ a life of sin

It was so out-of-this-world
That it couldn’t have bee real
I mean… what’s your deal

Over and over and over and over again
Gotta re-live that sin
Until you was it clean
Until you’re void of mean

Over and over and over and over and over and over again
Over and over in your head
For all eternity… long after you’re dead
Do you at least regret what you said?

Until you do you do
Likely, be living it over and over and over again
Gotta rid that sin

Must be hard to live with yourself
Over and over in head… over and over and over again
As long as you’re living a life of sin

ABOUT THE SONG
Em / G / Am

Written and recorded Halloween, October 31, 2012. Halloween is suppose to be a day in which the spirit world and the human world co-mingle. What if your evil spirit was in your head every day? You have got to get rid of it… do you know the way? Then, you’ll be living in blessed bliss.
