"KATIE" (2014)

lead release from "No Fairytale"

Katie says Del turned two today

How does the time fall away?

It was cool to go away back in the day

But I never meant to go so far away…

Down on the piers singing our songs

Felt like the whole world sang along

Tears on your eyes when I got on the bus

Distance putting time between the two of us

My baby came when I needed him

If I could go back would I do it the same again?

Katie I don’t know

Katie I don’t know…

The road’s messed up, driving’s bad

Nobody knows what the hell they had

Last cigarette I swore was my last

But another state line flew right past

(chorus)

Keep rockin your baby Kate

And I’ll keep on being sweet baby james…

(chorus)

Mmm mmm

Katie I don’t know

Katie I don’t know…

"IF YOU LOVED ME" (2014)

2014 addition to the "Believe" collection.   First proper release from that collection.   

I remember

How love feels

The arms of belonging

And I know now

The beauty

Of winter rain falling…

Magic crystals, magic snowman

I wish I may

Star bright

They’re in the windows

I am outside

I miss you most tonight…

If you loved me, why’d you leave me?

And take away my way back home

Now, I’m out here tryin to find it

Before I turn to stone…

If you loved me…

Then why’d you leave…. Me?

I am older

December’s colder

Another year goes by

And the children

And the laughter

And the songs that  make us cry

(chorus)

Now I wonder

Where I’m going?

What will come to be?

But I’m not afraid now

Coz what I know now

Is I take you with me…

(chorus)

"MONSTER" (2014)

- from "REMIXXIT MMXIV"

I got a monster inside of me

And only you know

You know

Where am I gonna go

Where am I gonna run to this time (I got a monster inside of me)

How do I escape

It keep scratchin at my mind… (I got a monster inside of me)

Wake me from this nightmare

For real I’m starting to get A BIT  scared

I got a monster inside of me

I got a devil that lied to me

He tells me to shut my mouth

I got a monster eating half of me

An evil clown that laughs at me

Kills me with doubt

I got a monster inside of me

And only you know…

How am I gonna win

How am I gonna save my life (I got a monster inside of me)

How am I gonna function

How am I gonna sleep tonight…. (I got a monster inside of me)

Wake me from this nightmare

Tell me there’s a way out of there…

(chorus)

How do you find me?

Where do you hide out?

I scream into silence

You laugh at my shouts

You come and you slither

You threaten you’re bigger

And I don’t know how to fight back

I don’t know how to fight back…

(chorus)

"ORANGE SODA" (2014)

4TH PROPER (5TH OVERALL) RELEASE FROM "WILD HORSES."

I ain’t your dream boy

You got it all wrong

I ain’t no hero

My desire to be one is gone…

I don’t do pretty

always that one thing outta place

Took me forever

To find out there’s nothing wrong with my face…

So I’ll be over here

With my orange soda

Watchin it all go down

Watchin it all go down…

I’m no believer

My faith hangs low on a string

I don’t hold my breath

I doubt that you’ll know what I mean…

So I’ll be in the corner

With my orange soda

Not even asking why why why

Not even asking why why why

I was born a cassette

You were born a cd

Flip me over play

Side 2 track 3

Do it On repeat…

I’ll be the one in the corner

With my orange soda

Lookin for my way out out out…

Finding my own way out… of this mess

In the corner

With my orange soda

As it all goes down

Watchin it all go down

I got my orange soda

All I need is my orange soda

I got my orange soda…

I got my orange soda…

I got my orange soda…

"ENOUGH" (2014)

THIRD RELEASE FROM "WILD HORSES."   RELEASED AUGUST 2014

I could write ten million billion songs

Probably already have

Sing my face off till I turn blue

Still the anger lasts

Keep it always at bay close to break

Don’t let go repeat phase

Skimming surface room for a bit more

Time to complete stage

I’ve written enough songs

Cried enough tears

I’m done here

I’ve waited enough time

Faced enough fears

I’m done here

The need to let you know how stupid I felt

How you hurt me

lack of any real sincere apology

Requires too much energy

I’ve written enough songs

Cried enough tears

I’m done here

I’ve wasted enough time

Faced enough fears

I’m done here

What remains is the fact it is what it is

We tried and we failed

As if you would show up here say sorry and I love you

That ship has sailed

I’ve sang enough songs

Moved to enough towns

I am done now

Started over enough times

I am strong enough now

I am done.

And I’ve written enough songs

Cried enough tears

I am done here

I’ve wasted enough time

Faced enough fears

I am done here.

I’ve written enough songs

Cried enough tears

Who wouldn’t be done here?

I’ve waited enough time

Faced enough fears

I am done here.

(this is my final transmission)

"PEOPLE TALK" (2014)

SECOND PROPER RELEASE FROM 'WILD HORSES'

I’ll be the one

Who says when I’ll stop

I’ll decide if I’m hot or not

So You want this?

Tell me why I should

Don’t ya know

Ya ain’t no good

I don’t care

What you think of me

It’s not my problem

Why you so angry?

I just wanna feel what I feel tonight

I’m gonna walk like I walk

I’m gonna wear what I want tonight

And if people talk, so what!

Let them talk

Let them talk…

People talk, let them talk.

Another lame little person who

Can’t handle, a different point of view

Ain’t mad, but I’m not impressed

Same story, give it a rest…

Another time

I might have choked

Another place

Hey don’t you know…

(chorus)

 (people talk. Let them talk.)

I just wanna feel what I feel tonight

I just wanna feel what I feel…

(Chorus)

"MOTORBIKE" (2014)

FIRST PROPER RELEASE FROM THE NEW RECORD!!!

Motorcycles on the street

Crusin by at the speed of light

On the road to something else

I know it sounds crazy but can I ride?

Past these houses where we burn

And the boys who yell with the windows down

I hold on with both hands

Put me up on the highway and out of town

Oh people like us we need to be free

Let’s head to the ocean got all that we need

And baby

It’s ok you’re not a movie star

Come out, come out, come out wherever you are

We’re gonna own this city tonight

Just you and me and a motorbike

We’re on your motorbike

We on your motorbike…

We’re up past midnight once again

Doubts punching us… we’re punching them

Howlin as the moon hangs tight

We’ve changed before, we’ll change again

I wasn’t joking when I let it all go…

I opened up my hands and got on the road

(chorus)

I would like to fall in love

But a different kind then before

Not an ending but something new

Keepin me hungry

ready for more

People like us we’re born to be free

I am with you if you are with me

And baby

It’s ok you’re not a movie star

Come out, come out, come out wherever you are

We gonna own this whole world tonight

Just you and me and you’re motorbike

We on your motorbike

We on your motorbike…

"ON AND ON" (2014)

SIXTH PROPER AND FINAL SINGLE FROM "FREE BEFORE I DIE"

What have I done to me?

I turned my back for a minute

What’s so big of you

To be so little of me?

I need to liberate

Give it to me till I am free

I’m pushing on and on

Through games my mind plays

On and on

Till the shadows go away

You haven’t loved me for a while…

Pushing on and on

On and on…

You haven’t loved me for a while…

What did I do to you?

Tell me why you’re so cruel

What was so big of us

To make everyone else so small?

I need to liberate

Give it to me till I have all…

(chorus)

I miss you like a missing limb

But it’s time to grow another one

I miss you like a missing limb

But it’s time to grow another one…

On and on

On and on

On and on

I’m pushing on and on

Through games my mind plays

On and on

Till the shadows go away

You haven’t loved me for a while…

"FLORIDA" (2014)

FIFTH SINGLE FROM "FREE BEFORE I DIE"

Someone once told me

I was worth stickin it out for

Somebody used to run to

See me just once more

And

Now I come a little broken

A little undone

Most days I’ll take the pass

And not want love

But ya

For real florida was fucked up

You should have known we were someone

We coulda been somebody

And now, you’re not going to find me

You’re not going to find me…

Let’s have a bit of dignity

I think it’s called courtesy

I think you’ve got me mistaken

Somebody who’d let you do that to me

And I, Think I’ll pass on love today

And drink my coffee and fade away

This is not a day the planet gives out

Miracles, anyway

And for real – florida was fucked up

You should have known we were someone

We could’ve been somebody

And now you’re not gonna find me

You will not find me…

I woulda rotted away with you

And never saw some of the cities I been too

And a little bit of lonliness

is worth what all Coulda been…

and ya, I think about you

from time to time

I see your face in a fryin pan

In my kitchen on the counter lies

A song I wrote and thought about

Here out in California

And maybe you’ve drifted out to sea

Back there… in sunny florida…

And for real – florida was fucked up

Don’t you know we were someone

We were somebody

And now you’re not gonna find me

You’re not going to find me

You’re not going to find me

You will not find me…

You’re not going to find me.

"SAY WHATEVER" (2014)

I like blue skies…

I love new york

i always watch the moon

I love the waves on the shore…

And you can say whatever

Say whatever

Say whatever

I’ll never stop believing in love

I love windy days

The leaves fall and twirl

The song heals my soul

My dog rocks my world…

And you can say whatever

Say whatever ooooh

Say whatever

We’ll never stop believing we can…

Say whatever

Say whatever oooh!

Say whatever

We will never stop being part of this world…

mmm…

and you can say whatever

say whatever – oh

say whatever

I’ll never stop believing in love

No you can say whatever

Say whatever

Say whatever

I’ll never stop believing in me…

I love blue skies

And I’ll always love new york…

"BEING WRONG" (2014)

I remember you – you gave me some funky magazines

You was always blowin my mind – talkin about a lot of crazy things

Late night AM radio - conspiracies

And I gave up my dreams – for you to stay with me

Hey,

Leave me alone

Leave me alone

Leave me alone – I’m busy being wrong

Leave me alone

Please leave me alone

Leave me alone – I embaressed myself.

You wore me out – like I don’t think i want a boyfriend

I don’t feel hung up – I feel like I don’t wanna go thru it again

I feel like I was blind – and deaf, and dumb all for you

Must’ve missed class – they day they taught how not to be a fool

So,

Leave me alone

Leave me alone

Leave me alone – I’m busy being wrong

Leave me alone

Just leave me alone

Leave me alone – I’m putting down

and moving on

and letting go…

cleaning house

emptying closets…

rebuilding… and moving on…

so leave me alone…

I’m busy being gone…

Leave me alone

Leave me alone

Leave me alone

Leave me alone

I’m busy being gone…
