"What can I say? It’s the desert…"

On the subject of Uncategorized

Got bored on a Saturday afternoon so we went out, driving around we found this place Goldfield ghost town. It was a nice little place to go, even though it was more than 100 degrees that day and all the  signs that said,”watch out for rattle snakes” we still had fun.

“In these arms” by The Swell Season

use the truth
as a weapon
to beat up all your friends
every ….
in the armor
an excuse to cause offense

and you love
find them in the end

you are restless
i was somewhere less secure

so i went running to the row
and so now that the longest of places i was
i quit my rambling and come home

cause maybe i was born to hold you in these arms
maybe i was born to hold you in these arms

and your saints
and your mantra
and you…… to keep you calm

if you stay
with that asshole
is gonna do you harm
as the voice singing loudly on the radio
just for you
and good fortune
will find him in the end

maybe i was born to hold you in these arms
maybe i was born to hold you in these arms
maybe i was born to hold you in these arms
maybe i was born to hold you in these arms

“Fools” by The Dodos

Our fathers have been entangled in things
He’s been squandering, he’s been squandering
And we don’t do a thing, ’cause we’re busy and think
We’re just wandering, we’re just a-wandering like fools

His son is his prize, he tells a few lies
He’s got his father’s eyes, it’s in his father’s eyes
And he thinks in his mind that he’s just getting by
But he’s a compromise, he’s just a compromising fool

And the stance that we take isn’t much to bear
Yeah, we leave things to change on their time
And our failure to care for it leaves us blind
’til we’re tired and we’re crazed in the mind

Now he lies on his back, and they tell him it’s that
It’s just a heart attack, it’s just a heart attack
Too late to return to the ones that you’ve earned
No they don’t give it back, no they don’t give it back to fools

And the stance that we take isn’t much to bear
Yeah, we leave things to change on their time
And our failure to care for it leaves us blind
’til we’re tired and we’re crazed in the mind

I’ve been, I’ve been silent

“Help I’m alive” (Acoustic) by Metric

I tremble
They’re gonna eat me alive
If I stumble
They’re gonna eat me alive

Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer?
Beating like a hammer?
Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender

Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train
Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

If you’re still alive
My regrets are few
If my life is mine
What shouldn’t I do?
I get wherever I’m going
I get whatever I need
While my blood’s still flowing
And my heart still beats…
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender

Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train
Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

If you’re still alive
My regrets are few
If my life is mine
What shouldn’t I do?
I get wherever I’m going
I get whatever I need
While my blood’s still flowing
And my heart still beats…
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

I tremble
They’re gonna eat me alive
If I stumble
They’re gonna eat me alive

Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer?

My Uke

Hello and a Happy Friday to you all!!!

Unbeknownst to many people, I happened to have picked up the Ukulele. After some practice , I’ve decided to share my hobby with the world. So I eventually did what I always do, I made  two covers of songs that I like. The first is “Butterfly Nets” by Bishop Allen; the second “I wanna grow old with you” by Adam Sandler. If anyone would like the chords for the songs, I would be more than happy to provide you with them. Now if there are no further questions, Enjoy!

“Eet” by Regina Spektor



It’s like forgetting the words to your favorite song
You can’t believe it
You were always singing along
It was so easy and the words so sweet
You can’t remember
You try to feel the beat

Eet, eet, eet, eet
Eet, eet, eet, eet

You spent half of your life trying to fall behind
You’re using your headphones to drown out your mind
It was so easy, and the words so sweet
You can’t remember
You try to move your feet
Eet, eet, eet, eet
Eet, eet, eet, eet

Someone’s deciding whether or not to steal
He opens the window just to feel the chill
He hears that outside a small boy just starting to cry
‘Cause it’s his turn but his brother won’t let him try

It’s like forgetting the words to your favorite song
You can’t believe it
You were always singing along
It was so easy and the words so sweet
You can’t remember
You try to move your feet

It was so easy and the words so sweet
You can’t remember, you try to feel the beat

“Elvis” by These new puritans



Elvis, i wasn’t talking about that king, or hair do’s Elvis, i wasn’t talking about that king, it’s confusing
Now, we’re being watched by experts, we’re being watched by experts
I try to blurt it out but i can’t find the words

We’re all waiting
I will you take me up?

Now, we’re being watched by experts, and what will happen next we have the clues…
Now, i’m gona tell you my secrets, i’m going…
I try to blurt it out but i can’t find the words
I try to blurt it out but i can’t find the words
