LYRICS
I had this weird vision
You were in it
And, your brothers, two… too… two… too

There was heaven’s light
’round one of your head
This usually only happens
When you’re dead

Connected.
The energy to you
When I’m near you
The energy turns blue
Like an intense flame
And, I’m perfectly sane
Connected.

Ya know it’s true
That that you do
Can come back to haunt you
Ya know it’s true
That you don’t do
Can come back to haunt you

The vision… can you see?
The ghost you created and caused to be

This is the second song in a trilogy from the album Prom And Aid about the 2012 Wissahickon Prom in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. Somebody made the mistake of victimizing my daughter. Her date tried to set things straight. Eventually, the police were brought in for justice. I play the part of the dumb farmer. Based on a true story.

Writing the Song *Graduate* by Daniel Brouse

LYRICS
The graduate
Moving up the ladder a bit
The graduate
Rung by rung
The world’s stage
Your skit

The graduate
Moving up the ladder a bit

The ruler of time
Measures your age
The impact you make
Whether you’re a hit

The graduate
Moving up the ladder a bit

The ruler of time
Deems you — sage
The more you create
The brighter you lit
The graduate
Moving up the ladder a bit

ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 5
Play Em Am7 D
Written at Virginia Tech on graduation day 2012… as I watched people in cap and gown getting down.

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? 🙂

Capo 6 (Bb) and play the chords as if:
Intro D A Em
G D A Em
Em A

DIRECTIONS TO LIFE

Whatever it is
There are so many ways it can be done
1) The puzzle is to recognize it is a puzzle.
2) The trick is to recognize the best solution.

When accepting guidance from above
When accepting guidance from the heart
The answer is instantly easy to see
As well as, when to start

You’ll know it’s now
You’ll know just how
Understanding,
The impact of your action
On the faction
Comprehending
The ramification
On the population

You’ll know you’ve won
When you know you’re one

Solution
Satisfaction
Deployment
Of enJOYment
