Enjoy the music. I wrote, performed, and produced all these songs myself. Many of them I'm playing all the instruments and performing all the vocals. It didn't cost me anything to record these so they are free to download and I encourage you to burn them for your all friends.

Lyrics
When were such eyes open and eager, hungry and wide down inside eyes that floated and eyes that followed insatiable eyes, consume this, eat this and swallow this strange model here the subway let him play and the city let him starve And the taxpayers cut their routines, a precision carve but amidst the traffic drones he gave two eyes to me one to see what is and one to see what should be I did lose these curious orbs trampled by the weight of the topcoat city hordes, vanity stores there where the underground man with guitar and change gave the cigarette women a memory as he sang, and the notes rang And I respected and he nodded but I couldn't sway in the time allotted Behind his glasses and teeth his cracked guitar and tired feet the accidental ears and the walking cashmere sleeping peers was a black show stopper I gave him my silver and i gave him my copper An unlikely teacher, commute vagabond preacher I got crossed eyed so astray, having never having seen the world in such a way
