"I found a land,
Where a man can stand,
And watch the sun slide into the sea,
Where a tree grows so high,
That it touches the sky,
And the wind sings a song just for me,"-John Hicks
My grandaddy told me once upon a time,
That a song ain't a song withoutta melody line,
Well maybe one day I'll find mine
Wrap me up I'm as good as gone,
Lost my cup half full or not,
Just leave me,
I like being lost,
I find comfort in the chaos
Every moment is another dead end,
I don't know just where I'm headin,
But that's ok cause neither do you,
Papa told me I'll see you later,
God has taken my respirator,
Just get me high and I'll make do,
Remember one day son, you'll be in my shoes,
And I know that I can't know,
I just hope I'm comfortable,
Though my mind can't find a home,
I bet at the end of this,
I'll know where to go
"I found a land,
Where a man can stand,
And watch the sun slide into the sea,
Where a tree grows so high,
That it touches the sky,
And the wind sings a song just for me."-John Hicks

Walking In A Dream

There's not a thought that haunts me more than you,
I have yet to be taught how to lose,
It feels silly but I think I'm losing my mind,
I can't hardly focus, I start playin out of time,
It seems obscene,
But I had a dream,
That I was you and you were me,
And I sit and wonder,
which synthesis of sounds will help you to see,
That when I walk with you,
I feel like I'm walkin in a dream,
I'm walkin in a dream

Asking Ceilings

I feel weak in my bones,
What was once psychological,
Has turn physical,
I can't think my vision blurs,
The truth creeps in as I try to deter,
Rather than inquire,
I'm happy then sad,
Then I'm anxiously mad,
I'd pay rent to be content,
Can't pay in time though cause all that I have spent,
Asking Ceilings questions,
And pretending everything is pleasant,
Sounds like you're depressed he says,
But doc I already know this,
Then I don't know what to tell you kid,
I'll give you a pill he says,
Don't worry about the side effects oh no,
We'll give you meds for your meds,
I'm happy then sad,
Then I'm anxiously mad,
I'd pay rent to be content,
Can't pay in time though cause all that I've spent,
Asking Ceilings questions,
And pretending everything is pleasant,
Right now I'm feeling fine,
But I'm high and I'm coming down, I'm coming down,
I don't wanna lose this life,
Just cause I can't come around or figure out.

Wide Eyed Thinkin

Take me through the tangles of my mind,
As I slip in and out of time,
There's no body here anymore,
Feet off the ground,
And I can see the sounds,
Of happy faces wavin from way down,
High hopes that I can find my way 'round,
Wide eyed thinkin,
My mind starts tumblin'
Wide eyed thinkin,
I get lost in my own grin,
Oh what a pleasant sin,
Spiral growth,
As I try to cope,
Reality has no time to slow,
Every moment comes as quick as it goes

And I sing

I miss the things that I never really had,
Like a girl that I love or strong, healthy dad,
Oh god am I doing it wrong?
So many people looking at me,
I don't know what to think,
So I turn my head,
And I sing
Ohh
I got this girl, she's a real sweet thing,
Ain't burdened by her looks,
She always says the right thing,
She's got eyes like the ocean,
When I stare I feel lost at sea,
Well we've going steady for a while now,
So I wanted ask, darling,
Will you be mine?
Will we sustain?
She said, "I'm sorry honey, What was your name?"
And I sang,
Ohh,
Well I met a man along my way,
Who had died the other day,
What an experience, I wonder what he's got to say,
"How's it going?" I say,
He said, "Good or bad my friend, I'm just happy it's going either way,
But every day is a beautiful day."
And he sang,
Ohh

Movie Of The Week
by Shakey Graves
Shakey Graves did it again! Thoughtful, clever lyrics. Groovy country style rhythms. Guaranteed a good time from this Texas gentleman
go to album
Erdy's tunes are ones to sit down and dive into. They say a picture says a thousand words. I'd say Erdy's words paint a thousand pictures. Close your eyes, listen up, and enjoy.
