LYRICS
Why not just say who you are
Is it really, really that hared?

Yes, once you go back that far
It becomes harder to find the word

A father’s daughter
Becomes the Maiden of St. Peter
Why they called her Dodo I don’t know

It really is that hard to say who you are
A piece from here. A piece from there.
Making up something unique

Is being unique to be a freak?

Why not just say who you are?
Have you ever even given thought
As in what you are not?

Are you really, really that far…?

I whisper to myself these thoughts
And, how it applies to the have’s and the have not’s

ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 1 Am / C add pinky to the 6th string 4th fret

Written on the boulders of Saint Peter’s Village in Pennsylvania. They say the giant boulders were pushed the furthest south by a proceeding glacier during the ice age. If you look through a birds-eye-view, you can see rocks that resemble huge dinosaur pieces.

LYRICS
Travelin’ back
There’s no need for a time machine
Travelin’ back
Rollin’ up the consciousness stream

Upstream
To the top of the hill
A southern breeze dodges the trees
Taking away the water’s chill

Livin’ heaven’s dream

The Season of Passion

Eve takes a bite from Cupid’s apple
The passion fruit blossoms
The wind will enable
And, scatter their sum some
Until the current brings us back
To where we started from

Fourth Base .mp3 (free music download)

Though never a big league ball player, I do enjoy playing the All-American-Past-Time from time-to-time. The one thing that does come to mind is when a youngster is on base… and a bigger fellow hits a home run. You can yell, “Run to first.” You can yell, “Run to second.” You can yell, “Run to third.” However, if you yell, “Run home” you run the risk that the lad will do just that. Thus, the name of the song *Fourth Base*

ADDITIONAL LYRICS
You Might find it funny
But, you’re already home

There ya go strutting down the street
Always in search of your comfort zone
You don’t need to beat an easy feat
You’re never alone if you’re always at home
It’s within your reach… you don’t need to roam
You may find it funny, but you’re already home

No need to reach
No need to roam
Self teach
No moan

You might find it funny, but you’re already home

ABOUT THE SONG
Daniel — vocals, guitar

LYRICS
I look for the meaning
In the meaning
But, I can’t always find it there
Elusive. Eluding…
Though it may be (to me)
So, too, I

So, too, I

I’m really hoping I get the knack
I hope and pray I get the knack
The proper range
The proper attack

Oh , Lord… filling my lack

So, too, I

Maybe what I was worried about is weigh, way bigger than you?
(So, I can let my shy side come through)

I’m really hoping I get the knack

Picnic, Dear?

Hey, hey! Wouldn’t ya say
It’s a beautiful day
All’s clear
Nothing in the way

The fog is long gone
Got my guitar… I’ll play a song
If you’d like… you can sing along

Hey, hey! Wouldn’t ya say
It’s a beautiful day
All’s clear
Nothing in the way
No fear
Nothing in the way

Hey, hey! Wouldn’t ya say
It’s a beautiful day
All’s clear
Nothing in the way
High gear
Nothing in the way

Hope’s near
Joys tear
Nothing in the way

LYRICS
Don’t ya know ya need a negative flow
Hook the black to the negative
So, ya know… the red can go

A positive outcome

The negative electron gone
Will give you a positive charge
Letting in the beauty of the song
Ensuring the positive is at large

A positive outcome
Don’t ya think we’d agree
On a positive outcome?

The voices within want let out
Listen with your heart
(If you want to) hear what it’s about
Reach out to your inner voice
Exercise your reason of choice

The voices within are calling you, calling you
The voices within are whispering, whispering
The voices within are calling you, calling you
Let me out, let me out, let me out!

The voices within want let out
Join in with your part
Form a choir and start

The voices within are calling you, calling you

The Day Part 2 .MP3 (free music download)
From the album The Beatless Sense Mongers 2012

I’ve known you a longtime
Until you call me, mine
I’ve known you a longtime
You’ve committed just about every crime

Now our co-sign is dying
No, no… you ain’t no friend of mine

You’ve done me wrong
I’m done singing that song
Ya know I prayed for the day
Now, I’m happy to say.
This is the day.
(Horray)

I’ve been putting
Putting in time
I’ve been trying
Trying!

On my spirit you love to dine
Making me wince… making me whine
Fo’ sure, ya know
Ya ain’t no friend of mine
Nooo, you ain’t no friend of mine

No, you ain’t no friend of mine

Blues based.

bookmark_borderJust Yards Away

1. Wowwwww… the wind blew hard
When I started thinking of you
Though, there your are
Only yards away

2. The chill you sent up my spine
Must not have been you at all
As it was divine
And, you know my position on the divinity of humanity

[Repeat 1 and add:]
Just yards away
Backyards. Frontyards.
Sidewards sideyards
Just yards away

But ya know the feeling,
Will I ever be close to you?

ABOUT THIS SONG
Sometimes you think you want to be close to someone, but then you think, “Do I really want that person to be close to me?” Then, I think to myself… perhaps it is best to start by being close to God. Then, you don’t have to worry about the other person’s imperfections getting on your nerves? 🙂

Dear Dear,

Looks like you had a head-on collision
With Venus
A love explosion
You’re genius
Positron and electron collision
At the nucleus
Delicious

Won’t let you be thrown
Under the us
No tragedy
The irony
Of smiling all the while
A love style

Stylistic magic

Loveningly,
Fantastic

You’re way to wacky
Not to survive
You’re the one always trying…
You always strive to survive
Stay alive
Way outside the norm
You’ll weather their storm

Let them say what they want to say about you
You’re the one whose heart is true
You have equal rights
Not to be equal
Equality doesn’t mean neutral
