Kiyo little darling Pulling yourself up with your baloon In my mind I take your picture In my mind I think a rambling tune With a tinge of madness I sing us softly to the moon Singing carry me o carry me O carry me away with you Kiyo little darling on a bicycle With hands was made In my room a bluish painting That her little hands did paint In my room I was a wasting away with all my painted pain Singing carry me o carry me O carry me away Kiyomi little darling with Your name inside a Lion's mane Rambunctious with your toe nails You can drive all of them boys insane In my heart a little part Where a siren found a spot to stain Yeah in my heart the pain did smart The wind did start to carry me away

Here's a fable of how the red Came to rest upon your pretty hair upon your pretty head Other colors couldn't save themselves from being gently shed As you dreamt of fairies softly in your bed And how you danced in the forest green Amidst a lion and a lady and a forest queen They loved to see you dancing, they wouldn't let you blend With the green so they colored your hair red Here's a tale of how the glitter met your eyes How it shined and it shined until a river you would cry Well I can't remember (I guess I'm that kind of guy) If your eyes are brown or bluer than the sky And how they made sure you weren't blind So they made your eyelids silver as the silver you would shine They loved the way your look could give you things to animate So they gave your eyes a shiny silver gaze Here's the history of how you came to be How your mother was a pirate straight from old New York City When she settled down in little town adjacent to the sea You were born and you were smiling beautifully You know she's been waiting til you're 22 That's the day when the horizon will be beckoning to you You'l find out of the secret of your pirate ship at sea Til you're older she'll be waiting patiently This is a song that didn't take too much to write Cause I've only known for 2 weeks and give or take a night And yes I think you're lovely despite you're shorter height And you're pretty face makes work seem alright But you can't make me shine the silver tonight

This world, this world is soft and spinning Right before my eyes This world she spins around the sun And never does it rise Oh girl you were buried with feathers Always tried to hide Those wings and I've never seen you flutter Those things by your side You still come alive Still come alive at night You still come alive Still come alive at night My mom has hair so raven black Her youth has met its doom Hair still dark as midnight prophecies Her eyes a blacker hue My father slumbers in his chair His skin glows softly white He was once a warrior parachuting In the bleak of night They still come alive Still come alive at night They still come alive Still come alive at night One day we shall go wandering baby Then we'll clear our heads And when they go looking for us Our friends can say we're dead Your shoes are ready for this journey Do you have the time? To walk with a stranger who'll think you're pretty Til beyond the day he dies They'll find me in a silver casket floating down a stream... With dirty shoes, a smiling face Some words about a joker queen Everyday in every life Everybody dies inside But baby open up your eyes And see that we still come alive Still come alive at night

Footprints at the graveyard we snuck in But we were wrong, we were wrong now weren't we To think that they belonged to ghosts Well we were young, and we are young now aren't we I tried to tell you that you looked pretty But you just smiled then you laughed didn't you Here it is: you are pretty to me Nothing's said, so just feel pretty won't you And it's not true, but I say you kissed me But I kissed you, and then you missed me didn't you And it's not true, but I say you kissed me But I kissed you, and then you missed me didn't you For a day They're just days now aren't they Spend a day with me

I've got a gloomy disposition, o wo What a position this position I'm in The weather's kinda cloudy, o wo I should be sleeping so soundly If you were right beside me Sunny couldn't fake it, o wo Bright light would replace it, mm hmm I've got a gloomy disposition This weather is never for me If you were right beside me, o wo I would be smiling so brightly, mm hmm If gloomy is the weather Together is never for me Together is never for me Together is never for me

I found your shape in the clouds A dreamy fog that surrounds me With a simple song of last year's broken sound And I got lost (You said get lost) And I was lost like a blinded hound Outside my window through the trees I hear them howl in midnight's breeze A sound I never knew I'd miss Reminds me of... Reminds me of... Your smiling mouth I wish I'd kissed Don't know what God wants for me I stare at glowing lights across the silver sea With my bible in my hand I pray that she Will think of me Will think of me In a peaceful memory Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohh At night those dogs are running wild And in my arms, my broken inner child In my mind a picture of her lovely smile It's been a while... It's been a while... It's been a while.... O Lord it's been a while Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohh Heaven's in the star-lit sky Every shooting star's an angel passing by She looked inside me with a lover's starving eyes Found I had died Found I had died Found I had died from our sad goodbye

about

I began writing and recording music in 2003 and I think I gathered over 100 of my own original recordings. A lot of them were really bad though, so this is a collection of 10 of my favorite tracks since then up to about 2013. I'd love to release the rest of these some day. I was living in and around the Puget Sound area.
