Flake

Here's a song about finding the energy for what matters and figuring out what doesn't as your mental reserves dwindle day by day. I'm sure more than a few people out there can relate. It's not my best work by any measure, but I like it. I call it "Flake"

A Song For Gerard

Given Gerard's recent change of heart, can he really be called a hero or a villain? God's plan is the definition of absolute right, but Gerard wants to prove otherwise. For his boldness, I feel he's earned a theme song! Here it is. 

There, I Said It

Guise I wrote a love song guise lol

No, not drunk this week. Just tired. Anyway, fresh Arven next week! If you'd like something else, Tweet @shadow2by4 with #writingrequest , and if enough people agree with you, then I'll shift gears and switch up my rotation. Love to all my readers, and here's the goods. 

There, I Said It.

I got a lot of things I should say to you

But I tend to explode in the moment

There's a lot of things that I

Wanna do for you

But I forget to explore every moment

Please don't run away

The day I say my peace is today

In some roundabout way

Come away with me

We can travel to space or to my backyard

As long as we're together

I got a lot of things

I got planned for you

But right now I drown in emotion

My foot tastes like cherry pie

And my brain won't tell me why but I think

It has something to do with you

I won't run away

Tell me please you feel the same way

If it all goes away

I want to know

By my side will you stay

This isn't all that I've got

So I don't see why not

Please don't walk away

Everything we were promised is today

And it's not far away

What we can only find in each other

Yeah, so don't turn away

Instead let's turn the page

together

filled with memories of you and me

Now don't you walk away

Everything that I've felt is today

And I think you're the same

Tell me what's on your mind, I'm sure it's just like mine

If my mouth won't shout

Listen to my heart crying out

for you

For you

Cuz I'm in love with you

There I said it, say you love me too

Good Enough For Me

You think tomorrow's so precious

Take a look around

There's peace and love to be found

It's a turn of the wheel

That desire to appeal and don't ask why

But maybe it's time to fly


But the secret you see 

is when I take care of me

By keeping happiness alive


Everyone here is wearing a smile

They can rest easy tonight

Everyone here can forget for a while

And I'd say that's good enough for me


Yeah 


I'd say that's good enough for me


The daily grind has got you tired

But that's just how it is

Maybe when you provide

Take a look at the sunshine

And tell me it ain't worth it


The secret you see

Is when taking care of you 

is how I take care of me 


Everyone here is wearing a smile

They can rest easy tonight

Everyone here can forget for a while

And Id say that's good enough for me


Same pain and distraction 

Day after day

Maybe it might be time for a change


But deep in their eyes

It's the reason the fire is still alive

Can’t be explained or seen

But I know you know what I mean


Everyone here is wearing a smile

They can rest easy tonight

Everyone here can forget for a while

And I'd say that's good enough for me


Yeah


Id say that's good enough for me


I think this life may be good enough for me
