I'm an amateur with no plans to be anything else. I don't write much these days, but in my younger, less stable days I felt moved to write songs to express what was in my head.

Written in 1995
Lyrics
I stood at the crosswalk, the car fumes made me choke Saw the rear bumper, a signal through the smoke Tread the Earth gently, the fithy sticker read How can the future have meaning to the dead? (I wonder.) The yellow arches, the trash spilled on the floor The propaganda stacked right beside the door A flyer pleaded, let's save the Amazon How can the future have meaning when you're gone? (I wonder.) I me so you not I me not you I went to bed alone I could not get to sleep My heart would not slow down My head would not shut up I pulled the pillow to my chest The clock didn't want to change its dim reflection on the wall til the darkness pulled me down I me so you not I me not you The morning paper spills out the somber news Opinion pages spit out the different views The pen's supposed to be mightier than the sword The obituaries show no one died of words (I wonder.) I me so you not I me not you I fell into a dream I was standing in a field The dry grasses caught on fire A bird rested at my feet She moved to fly away She rose into the air until the fire caught her wings I woke up alone I me so you not I me not you
