Poor Life Choices I've been listening to this nonstop for the last few days. Lots of hooks with shades of ATD-I and Hot Water Music. Favorite track: Barnacles.

Ghost Guns 03:42
Thoughts and prayers sent won’t save anyone. In this great divide between law and what is right. What are you so fearful of That you need an arsenal? Untraceable, ghost guns Will not improve this world. Somber voices echoing everywhere. Guns over people and you say you care. What are you so fearful of That you need an arsenal? Untraceable, ghost guns Will not improve this world. Meanwhile, teachers and students rehearse what to do when a shooter finally comes to their school. I won’t accept this catastrophe. We can’t accept this catastrophe.

Join Us! 01:49
He lead by example. King stood against oppression without violence. And now, we are in his debt for teaching peaceful protest. What would it take for you to join in? Emma spoke out and she stood up when so many voices went silent. And now, we are in her debt for speaking against violence. What would it take for you to join in to this protest? What if you were tested to do the right thing? Would you run or would you stand up and be counted? Join in, Protest!

This America 03:34
Disarmed and still Tell us how a threat still exists. Excessive force to suppress a person Who’s crime is color of skin. Is it so threatening? It is only skin yet some lose life, liberty and limb. Have we learned nothing from history? What some are now witnessing Has always been right here. A simple statement has got simple minds up in arms. It shows the ignorance and privilege in this America. If you are not aware of what is going on or even care Then you are part of the problem. But, it’s not too late. What some are now witnessing Has always been right here, right now. Now it’s on All of us to make a difference.

Weathervane 02:31
Once like a weathervane and Free to go with the changing winds. An anchor now, firmly holding ground. Watching the world keep turning. Nothing is easy anymore. Will it ever be? Seems plain to see. You are growing as others are slowing. Watching the world keep turning. Oh heartbeat, carry me. I still remember back when. We kept time at bay, it seemed endless. Now I am holding on to memories. Watching the world keep turning. Carry me across the open sea, and over the fields. Carry me back home to my everything, heartbeat carry me.
5.
Barnacles 02:26
Barnacles under foot waves over, just to return. You and I surrender to the chaos and the peace. We wade in. We become immersed in each moment. Never want it to end. Is the ebbing of the ocean symbolic for love’s chaos and the bliss of love? We wade in. We become immersed in each moment. Never want it to end. Waves return, love retracts. Like these moments, never to come back. Still I recall when heartbreak like rogue waves, cost everything to me. And the current would sweep me away.

Was it a common enemy that we needed to break free from apathy? What were you saying that we needed to hear when the curtain fell? Let this be a catalyst Your own ignition song. Let this be the moment we become one family. No more complaining it’s not needed to create anything. Time for action now! you are needed to assist one another, friend. Let this be a catalyst Your own ignition song. Let this be the moment we become one family. I solemnly swear my allegiance to love, peace and justice.

The sun slipped down. The sidewalk sunk to greet me, as street lights appeared. Without a sound. Cast shadows could not erase what was meant to be. A time and place. Harboring hope for better nights and brighter days. But the scars remain. Sunlight could not erase what was meant to be. I keep this in mind, no one gets through life without regrets and/or mistakes. But, I can’t forget when I was blown to bits. Reassembled to the best of my ability. Reassembled, but some parts went missing. Sometimes I still feel it.

Now I can count you upon one hand But I remember when There was no shortage Of good vegan friends. Breaking bread together. Conversations just as nourishing. Decades begin and then end, and I remain here at a smaller table. I have weighed the options, why did they change? I miss them dearly, all my vegan friends. Please return to me. Maybe you have forgotten that when we decided to change how we live it created a ripple effect. Breaking bread together. Conversations just as nourishing. Decades begin then end, and I remain here at a smaller table. And I am still waiting for you to return.

I Am Spirit 02:52
I am spirit, I am soul. I have no religion. I have never liked my options. My love says all. Open to the world, a child of the Earth. Uncompromising, but I sleep with a clear heart and a satisfied mind. Are you satisfied? Content with “I don’t know". I won’t subscribe, I have never liked my options. I rise with the sun. Open to the Earth, a child of the world. Uncompromising, but I sleep with a clear heart and a satisfied mind. Always searching for the light. How it radiates from the inside.

Night Lights 02:52
Tonight like most, we listen to The Smiths while I hold you close, singing along. Precious moments I would never trade in. Trying to make sense, of everything. You remind me of what’s important. Ears still ringing the day’s refrain. Thoughts swimming, while you sleep. Tonight like most, we listen to The Smiths while I hold you close, singing along. Precious moments I would never trade in. When difficulty starts to creep in You remind me of what’s important. Ears still ringing the days refrain. Thoughts swimming while you sleep. Tonight like most, we listen to The Smiths while I hold you close, singing along. Precious moments I would never trade in. Oh love, it’s a beautiful feeling to Sing you to sleep, sing you to sleep.
