I play guitar in this band. This song is from our 2019 album “Dead Reckoning”
Lyrics:
Rose of Sharon
Settled down for the night
with her head chamfered to his shoulder
Wetter now the eyes
with understanding and love to hold her
Rose of Sharon round the streetlight
a steel spine bent with flickering full moons
Dark green and soft white
their shadows merge and rise in full bloom
Who’s labored long can settle downcreditsfrom Dead Reckoning, released August 12, 2019license

Lyrics:
Leave to sort them out, the sordid details
knifing through the happy story.
A decade here. An artful year.
Highballs for the low-browed gladhands
who sip with pinkies up.
Deep in your darkroom, developing,
developing your ghost.
With whom do we share this mealtime, the seasons of rain and sunshine
uncomfortably whole and rich?
A lifetime here in a single year,
An orb in the mirror, a mirror in a dream of Victorian drapes.
Deep in your darkroom, developing,
developing your ghost.
Here, with the softening sunrise,
the caraway seeds in the soft rye:
a window open for sounds of birds.
A ballad sent on the springtime air
high up in the oaks that shoot new life
from their wits’ end.
Deep in your darkroom, developing,
developing your ghost.creditsDead Reckoning, released August 12, 2019

This is Not Even Rock and Roll
I’m a walking cliche with my guitarI want to get rich and be a starThere’s only one hitch: I’m getting too oldAnd this is not evenThis is not evenThis is not even rock and rollStrange how estranged everyone’s becomeThey can’t understand what I amAnd I’m not worthy of a microphoneAnd this is not evenThis is not evenThis is not even rock and rollI’m thinking with guitar mindLove to feel it unwindTell me are you inclinedTo show me why you’re do fine?The hawk above the highway knows my nameThe restaurant mirrors multiply my faceBack and forth to infinity I goAnd this is not evenThis is not evenThis is not even rock and roll
