Lyric Blog ......yes...more lyrics....there is music to this...but..you can't hear it yet..lol

"Right, Monkey"

one step forward is one step more than you will ever get if you never try
and one step forward is 2 steps back if they lie and lie and lie.
a friend in need is a mouth to feed and they put you to such good use
i've been at the wall but i opened my eyes in time to see it all and i saw it all it all it all...

and the minute i saw it all i thought..right, monkey you know what's goin' on.
 the minute i saw it all i thought..right, monkey..you know what's goin' on.

broken glass houses leave you cold and in your bitterness..your sunday best.
a promise warm with the chemistry of songs we've never sung ..and young is gone.
a cut that bleeds is one more chance to heal if you can keep it clean..you can be the machine.
and one step forward is all it takes to lose or win it all  it all it all...


and the minute i saw it all i thought..right, monkey you know what's goin' on.
 the minute i saw it all i thought..right, monkey..you know what's goin' on.

just some lyrics to a quirky new song...(demo posted in the player)

"Apples with the nurses"

the day breaks new, and everybody shines.
i'll make you see my face a million times.

there's probably something wrong with my head
and monsters living underneath my bed...

while I sit writing verses..
and eating apples with the nurses.
all the voices in my head sing a song
can't we all get along
can't we all get along.

i'll bet your mind works just like mine.
it's just that i don't hide behind.
far outside the lions i color my world
and i sit and smile like laverne to shirl

yeah there's probably something wrong in my head
and monsters living underneath my bed

while i sit writing verses
and eating apples with the nurses
all the voices in my head sing a song
can't we all get along
can't we all get along.

so....I just released a new album "sparkle like glitter on the sun"
this was not the album I was planning to release this year.....these tracks were meant to be the basic beginning tracks for the album........but after listening to them for over a month...I started to find beauty in  the rawness...even the ugliness ...and just felt that I really wanted people to be able to hear me....no bullshit...no studio tricks..just me and the songs....good or bad...it's all on the table...if you were in my house listening to me play and sing..this is pretty much what you would hear.....this is a stark contrast from my previous album "taking tea with elephants"..........and....I still amy go back and do a more polished version of these songs later....and release it.

but for now...this is who I am....right now......it may not be pretty or slick...but this is who i am...just a guy that writes songs...and hopes that through these songs we can find a connection to each other.
for the moment the album is available exclusively through my online store...I may do a wider launch(iTunes..etc..) we'll see.


I'm also currently working with David Spencer (high strung, deepest symphony) on a new project that I'm very excited about...stay tuned!


whole lotta love,
chad

"Rockstar and Crimefighter"

maybe the green one, no..wait the blue one.
i'll fly up to the sun
i always wanted to be the man you needed, to be the heroic one.
and nobody will know who i am maybe it's superman
when i fly by you, i'll fly right by you
a sparkler in each hand

will you know me
no you won't recognize me


i'm running with sparklers.
a legend in my mind
aliens and monsters..i'll take you on tonight.


can you believe it, all this greatness in one boy
i'm really something to see
i'm like The Beatles, KISS, Elvis and Batman,  i'm ready if gordon calls.
and i live in the brady bunch house and big bird is in my tree
i think it's funny that you look at me and just see me, i blend in so naturally.

you think you know me
but you won't recognize me.

i'm running with sparklers.
a legend in my mind
aliens and monsters..i'll take you on tonight


i'm running with sparklers
my cape is tied just right
a rockstar and crimefighter....in the world behind my eyes.

ok...yes..I admit it..I'm a coffee snob...also a gin snob and sushi snob....wow..I have issues..LOL..anyway..this is just my tangent about all of the tv commercials that constantly put down...in many ..less than creative ..veiled ways....starbucks....for example...it drives me insane when a gas station chain runs commercials saying.."why spend 4 bucks for a cup of coffee house coffee..when you can get the same quality for only 99 cents"...yeah...a GAS STATION always has the same quality as Starbucks...or when a certain swillhouse.....I mean fast food restaurant advertises that "four bucks is dumb"....we have coffee shop quality coffee...blah blah....well..here's the truth...A CUP OF COFFEE...does not cost 4 bucks...or even 2 bucks...at Starbucks....the more expensive drinks are the latte's and cappucino's and other specialty drinks...and yes..they cost more than gas station latte's...but starbucks latte's aren't made from a powdered mix!......have you noticed you never see commercials for starbucks?  that's because they don't need tv commercials! they have great coffee....not just the drinks you buy in store...but the starbucks bags of whole bean coffee that you make at home(with a french press of course).....I've tried many many types of coffee....starbucks is superior every time!....and they sell organic and fair trade...are involved in(RED)..etc...etc....
so...wouldn't it seem rude if starbucks started selling burgers as a sideline to their coffee...and suddenly said theirs were the best?......why do other companies feel the need to put down starbucks???...well it's always my theory that if you make a quality product...you don't need to put down other products......you only have to resort to that when you have an inferior product.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...STARBUCKS!!!!!!!!
 
......yes I know.....but I warned you it was a tangent!  ;-)

lyrics for the title track of the next album.

"sparkle like glitter on the sun"

nothing they had shown me had ever spoken much to me.
nothing given, nothing really gained.
I could see forever when they could not see anything.
and they laughed  when they heard me say,

it won't be long, until you're proven wrong

you might think that I have come undone, but I'll sparkle like glitter on the sun.
I am worth as much as anyone, and I'll sparkle like glitter on the sun.

they never look you in the eye anyway,
why do you care what they think
they don't know you, they think you're just a throw away.

but I see something in your eyes...

when all hope feels gone
keep holding on

you are worth as much as anyone, and you sparkle like glitter on the sun.
don't wait for the gun, to start your run. just sparkle like glitter on the sun.

and the sparkle is blinding, spotlights shine for all of us.
they'll even show you the way home.
that sparkle is breathing and living after we're gone.
Imagination lives to lead the way.

they all thought that I had come undone, but I sparkle like glitter on the sun
everyone's the worth of anyone, we all sparkle like glitter on the sun.

 

maybe I have come undone..........but I sparkle like glitter on the sun.

OK..so..I never really knew what my song "the violet door" was exactly about...well...I did..but..the song didn't communicate it very well ;-)..so I re-wrote the lyrics......I'm sure some of you will know exactly what it means now!  ...:-).....wow...songwriting can be very theraputic!!
"the violet door"
I opened the violet door..and walked into that empty room, with memories scattered on the floor. I opened the violet door, as light filtered above my head. nothing lived there anymore. through the violet door, could I see what I want to see..or is it what's supposed to be?
does anything still show..besides what we think we know...and can we be who we should be ..behind.....behind the violet door.
c'mon and go with me, we'll look for eternity..or maybe our reality. there's nothing we know for sure, except the dead are always dead...but you can live here in my head.  and now through the door there is something from before...that makes it all mean even more.
and everything will grow....and I hope you somehow know.. that things will be what they should be behind...behind the violet door.
